Heavy Equipment Set (HEQS) v1.5.2 released! [OTTD]

[andythenorth]

[The truck looks quite neat Concerning "release soon": isn't that what the build of the nightly is done for automatically?

Doh. Yes, the nightly will appear. Is it actually nightly?

There will also be a tagged release when I get this truck done.

HEQS v0.5c released...adds support for FIRS sand cargo, and two new Cascade Logging Trucks. Get it in the first page of the thread, or BaNaNaS

I see a bug with the trucks while loading - trailer sprites flicker occasionally. Anyone else see this? (OTTD r16762)

cheers,

Andy

I would doubt anyone is still running that nightly, but from that screenshot, those trucks look very good!

[NekoMaster]

yay! a truck for once, will there be moar?

[jacke]

Great Keep up the good work andythenorth!

[colossal404]

The wood trucks are great! But why did you invent them in the same year? I think the C16 appears later in reality...
And I think I found another little glitch in the set. According to the writing the Camelback can pull two trailers, but it hauls only one, like on the picture.

You did Now fixed, thanks. Nightly build attached. New tagged build (0.5d) will be released later today.

Version v0.5d released - in first post and on BaNaNaS. No new features - just a bug fix to Camelback Mountain Mining Truck.

A very minor glitch but this version does not show up in the New Grf list as version 0.5d. The numerical designation part of its name shows up as 0.5cM.

Also very minor but you might want to either change your signature or update HEQS versions in your signature.

Keep up the great work and I will continue to look forward to new downloads of all of your varied projects.

Forgot to republish after I tagged for version 0.5d. Nothing would be different between this 0.5cM and 0.5d except the version control tag. I'll leave it as is for now.

Keep up the great work and I will continue to look forward to new downloads of all of your varied projects.

Thanks, feedback is helpful and inspirational!

I'd come up with some complex feedback and comments, but I simply like to play the game and add new graphics. From what I've seen, you seem to work a lot on new graphics, which all appear nice. Thanks!

Hi,

very nice set, i'm using it a lot since i discovered it. I love it.

Just a (unrelated, sorry) question: where does the brown roads that you use in your screenshots come from ?

[planetmaker]

IIRC those are NA City set roads for the outskirts from the early era.

Thank you

[andythenorth]

IIRC those are NA City set roads for the outskirts from the early era.

They are. There's a parameter to make them stay as dirt roads throughout all eras.

They are. There's a parameter to make them stay as dirt roads throughout all eras.

Does that mean that non city streets will be dirt?

[Gremnon]

It means all will be, unless you change the parameter in game, save and re-load it. Since as far as I know, roads don't actually change while you're playing.
