Hello everyone, here I finally bring you the long trucks. enjoy! Download at Bananas! (Ingame Downloader)

Note: Note that the Tractor missing portion in certain views is due to how OpenTTD overlays the sprites, There is no elegant way to combine both parts, either you cut the truck chassis and it is a single part together with the trailer or you delete a portion of the tractor chassis to make the sprite overlay work.

I dont see it , REAL TRUCKS , Is at it ?

No, Real Trucks it´s a different one, this is Real Semi Trucks.

I thought there was a problem with the newgrf ID so I modified it and uploaded it again but it still doesn't appear, who will take care of Bananas? I did not find any email to contact and now there are 2 versions with different ids uploaded at the same time, the system does not let you delete your own newgrf.

It appears as uploaded to bananas however it does not appear in the ingame downloader.

Thanks for your answer .

i still cant find it in the in game downloader or at the bananas , provide us a diect link to download the file please

I attached the file to first post, enjoy!

It's visible in the in-game downloader for me.
I'm running vanilla OTTD 13.0, searched for both 'semi' and 'temporal8' and there's two versions found (1.0 and 1.1).

Apparently it takes a while for everything to update, I didn't see it in the same version this afternoon.

There was an issue with the BaNaNas service not updating content in the backend, this was fixed a few hours ago, and recent uploads were then made available in-game.

In general the developers are mostly reachable on either Discord or on GitHub.
They do also frequent the forums, but getting their attention is likely easier via either Discord or GitHub.

Nice set, as usual.
I found that when stopping at a station they stay a bit back, so the rear part looks like it's invading the previous tile. It doesn't affect passing traffic so it's just an aesthetic thing.
Also, you could spread the starting year of some of them so they don't appear at the same time.
These are just suggestions if you ever release an update.

Wait, I just found out that you can refit the container trucks to any cargo, including passengers...

Thanks for the suggestions man,

1- About the aesthetic bug when the trucks stop at the stations, I don't think I'm going to solve it since it would mean realigning 136 sprite graphics one by one. The bug occurs because the trucks are actually designed as if they were 3 vehicles due to their length: 1 invisible vehicle in front + the real vehicle + an invisible vehicle in the back. The front bounding box is very long, making it smaller would force me to re-align all the graphics by hand again one by one. ( 34 vehicles x 4 views = 136 sprite graphics). Maybe one day if I have a lot of free time.

2- The idea that they start in different years is very good, I'm going to apply it, in fact the long-term plan is to include semi trucks from other eras as well, but I don't know when I'll have the free time.

Someone should report it to the police!

Actually, some vehicles are left free so that the player can choose if he wants to use it to really transport the right thing or just use it as eyecandy from here to there, the passengers are easy to load.

Hey,

Just saw that release 1.2 is available on Bananas. Does that conflict with version 1.1 or can they be active at the same time?

They cannot be at the same time. Version 1.2 is more expanded, so it contains everything that is in version 1.1, but it is expanded with more vehicles

Would I be able to remove 1.1 and install 1.2 without my savegame going to trash?

As long as you don't change it in a running game, there wouldn't be any problems.

Your 32bpp sets are amazing (I need anew pc for all the new stuff coming out games wise!)

Whilst I mostly don't use Toyland does the Pepsi truck work with cola from Toyland? And does anyone know if the zbase 32bpp graphics set has 32bpp for Toyland?

And do your various vehicles sets refittable cargoes cover all the FIRS4 products? There are some suitable connections like recycling chain products.

Finally as it's just crossed my mind you might be the person to ask I'm specifically looking for UK style narrowboats and vehicle transporters which might be an idea to add if they're something you'd be interested in making. As per point 5 here (once post is approved) viewtopic.php?t=92062

Hello,
I am playing a world-scale savegame more than 10 years on JGRennison (jgrpp) patches version 0.63. It is a simulation of real rail tracks, air routes, ship lines ..., The savegame contains more than 3000 airplanes of worldwide airlines, >800 vehicles, 200 trains and 200 ships. It is impossible to enable multiple newGRF engine sets = on, because there are too many vehicles to temporarily remove them for enabling that function. Is there any trick to enable multiple newGRF in case there are too many vehicles to start from scratch? I am playing with GETS trains and Temporal8' Real vehicles, trains, cars, semi-trucks, trucks, buses and ships, however, they are conflicting on some items (the whole truck set and two semi-trucks are not in the list since I included Real buses, and similar issue appears with Real trains which are in conflict with GETS and NARS) and I would like play also Czech amazing sets and others, e.g. Chinese .... Please, help. How to include more sets. Thanx a lot.
