I direct you to the British Tram Set Website On there is a development screenshot that the Developers of this grf got last night, at the moment only two trams work properly but it's all good. I don't know what Captain_Kirk is going to do about a general Public release however.

At the current stage, the GRF is still riddled with lots of bugs, Mailny articulated trams don't work.

Two more official screenshots. Once again Coronation and the Cream & Green Balloon tram. (the Mid Met is giving us trouble i'm sorry to say.)

I thought we agreed to use my coronation graphics...

That was the idea but Kirk forgot to hand the sprites to Sir Bob, consequently the only set available were coded which means my rather shocking attempts made into the game.

We did, Sir Bob is adding your graphics, the ones above is from a slightly buggy GRF, one of the bugs is i was lazy enough to forget to hand Sir Bob your gfx, but they have been submitted.

And here we are, A new image, using a new GRF version.

Still not release ready, but it shouldnt be too long.
Known Bugs still to fix:
Midland Metro is not Aligned correctly
Coranation Not alligned correctly
Mid Met sprites using wrong pallette (doors use the fire effect)
Black Balloon Tram, Colors display wrong (red front)
Mid Met displays one carridge, not articulated..

In my humble opinion that coronation is way out of scale when you compare it to the other vehicles on the road, most notably the balloon trams. Perhaps you could maybe make it smaller m4rek?

perhaps you should make the rest of them bigger :wink:

but really, it was hard enough making it THIS small, and scaled

Well we can't keep it like that, look at it! It is bigger than the mid met and the balloon put together! it's just too big, see what you can do with it please, it is easy to make that smaller than redraw every single tram so that they are bigger.

is it?

That was meant to say EASIER rather than easy.... apologies for that one, but in the end you have to redraw one tram, or you could leave that one tram alone and redraw all the others so they are larger... Up to you...

In the images, we can see the Coranation is thin and long.

I will point you to this image here, also viewable on the BritishTram website..

But it's the same length as the Balloon in real life, and someone made the Balloon that small. Besides, there was a consensus to make the trams (or single vehicle of an articulated tram) no bigger than the original road vehicle sprite. Which yours is.

Once again, i will direct you here http://britishtrams.ttdgraphics.com/ima ... ation2.jpg

We can see it is slightly bigger. If we was to put that with the balloon i think it would be slightly longer, but not that much.
(balloon here http://britishtrams.ttdgraphics.com/ima ... alloon.jpg)It's up to m4rek if he re-draws it or not really.

m4rek, do you have any objection if I try to resize the coronation? there is nothing wrong with the actual drawing just the size....

well, if you can make it TO SCALE, and smaller, and with a decent amount of detail, you may try
