I'm Julia, I live in the UK, and I have been playing Locomotion since 2005, but lost the disk ages ago..
It took months to locate another its virtually impossible to find it new, but I got it off Amazon for Christmas, and am getting back into it again, still trying to do the scenario editor - I don't do the ingame ones, I like to do my own.

I like these forums! :D
Take care

Well, im sure i introduced my-self a few years back, but being away, I thought an update maybe in order.

Ive been quite busy as of late, being a truck driver does mean in away from any real internet access; but ive also been playing truck games as 18 wheels of steel.
The last time I was here, I was in the middle of doing Victorian trams, and trans (I still have all the information)
I used blender for them, but have lost the data in the process of new computers, and well, moving.

So to get back on the horse in using Googlesketch, and have been helping out an American make a trucking game; It then occored to me, that sketch can be used for LoMo.
And so, im seeing if any of the guy's that helped me last time are still here to re-help out.

Well thats about it.
Good thing this site is still here.

Congratulations, have an official warning! That's possibly one of the most annoying things that people say on the Internet, and is rather rude. Please don't.

Guess I'll post here seeing as i'm on one of my few sojourns away from the General Transport Discussion forum...

Hi, I'm Andrew and i'm 28 years old, From Huddersfield (hence the forum name: 47434 was named 'Pride In Huddersfield' in the '80s). I work in a bookshop having wasted 5 years of procrastination and indecision at Uni. I have Aspergers' Syndrome which may go some way to explain both that, and my railway/transport-based geekery. Despite this, I do have a girlfriend (a civil engineer, no less) :wink: !

Hi, I'm Elisabeth, living in Sweden. I just got back to TTD again, after having to share computer with the other members of the family for a few years and had little time to play, I now have my "own" computer (which is the remodeled old one) set up just for me in my craft room. I love to play TTD but have been off from it for a few years. Coming back fast at it, though! This time I run OpenTTD - much more fun!

Post by TheDarkGiganotosaur »

Greetings to you all, people of Transport Tycoon Forums.

I reveal my true name to no one, but you can call me "TheDarkGiganotosaur" (Or just "T.D.G." to be more simple.). I'm 26 years old, and I'm from Portugal.

I've come to this forum due to a massive interest in OpenTTD, because I've been playing TT and TTD since the era of DOS (And I still play them thanks to DOSBox, the DOS emulator. That is, until I've recently discovered OpenTTD.).

Firstly, I'd like to congratulate the OpenTTD crew, because OpenTTD's far more powerful, more flexible, and much better than the original TT and TTD games--and I do enjoy playing OpenTTD everyday. So I thank you, OpenTTD crew, because this is the best Transport Tycoon Deluxe I've ever played. Keep up with the great work!

I happen to be quite addicted to trains, though I still use buses, trucks, ships and aircrafts but not as much as trains. Also, the whole NewGRF stuff intrigues me, but I'm new to this, but I've already managed to create my own GRF file that brings all the trains from Temperate, Sub-Artic/Sub-Tropical tilesets to all tilesets, except the Toyland tileset. The NoAI scripting is also intriguing, but it's far too much for my brains to handle.

Well, I guess that's all for my introduction.
