Okay folks. I am really really sorry that I made myself so scarce in the last months - the problem was that I was moving, I was studying and I had a lot of other jobs to do.
But finally I have now approx. two weeks of holiday, and... well: Used some time of it to complete the readme file. It took me less time than I expected, fortunately.

I will read it again later and then put it on the repository, and then... hopefully we get a release :D. Btw, there is also a logo now, see the attachment. Hope you like it.

If I understood him right, XeryusTC wants to look after some remaining bugs, but has yet not installed any GFX development tools after his new OS installation. So it can still take some time.
I would have no problems with releasing it with some bugs now, so if you reallyreally want it you probably have to convince him that his work just has to be "good", not "perfect" ;).

Btw, the shortest definition of "perfection" I've learned yesterday from an astrophysics professor: "illusion" :lol:

So far, gn8

Haha, I just need to install Cygwin I guess, but I am currently somewhat occupied with my rediscovered love of Minecraft :oops: and Eve Online. I hope I can find some time tomorrow, the bed comes first ;)

Just to keep you updated, I just managed to install the necessary tools and compile the newgrf. A release should arrive soon.

There is a disclaimer though:
My last Facebook update wrote:Installing MinGW, the promise of finally delivering the Modern Train Station Set and a 50 cl bottle of Hertog Jan Grand Prestige. I don't see anything going wrong tonight (A)

Surprise, surprise. Here is the release! Doing stuff when tipsy is not the most productive I must say so it is possible that I forgot something.

Basicly this is 1.0-beta. Why is it beta you ask? Well, that's simply because large parts of it are untested and might not behave properly. Glitching errors are possible especially on stations with graphics which hang over the tracks so to say.
It is also highly recommended that you take note of the readme file as you might not be able to figure out how to (properly) build all the stations otherwise.

You might want to download this set after the weekend if you have anything planned ;)
