Due to some requests on IRC, I decided to shorten my current North Americna buses (as well as George's Scenicruiser) to TTD Length. I set the longest bus to the length of a USSet passenger coach and below is the result. George said he'd code this set as well, and I'm going to keep drawing for this set as well as the LV NA Bus set (Because the detail is so much better )

All specifications remain the same.

George, you can host this on your site, or I can upload it to the Canadian Set site, either or...

They look funny, especially cruiser

They are not all correct. For example, I got no weight for you last bus. Please, could someone check the characteristics?

Ok, I'll host them.

Weight on a GMC "Classic" is 10.5 Metric Tonnes, 11.5 Imperial Tons

Hoorah! Short busses!

And about coding which you asked on IRC, I may be able to pull somthing, as I told you, I'm bogged down with sprites for P:GS that I've been neglecting, but I may be able to have a look.

I'll probably have the time now to actually do some more coding, but motivation is running low, seems I have a few too many distractions.

Those busses look really good! I can't wait to begin using them in my next US Set game!

Well, if you use 3LongbusesNA now, you can replace them with new truncated buses in the existing savegames
well, as soon as I upload them
And you have to use all the other LV files to use them right

-eis_os- I hate these small texts
Me too, but ...

These RV looks very promising, does that maybe mean I can finally use better looking ones in my games?

Well, do you like it?

Do you think we should include this in the US set? I don't have any objection to putting it on that page if you guys don't.

Wel, you can put it there too, but I've planned to host it on my site

Of course you can have it on your site, after all, you coded it. I just thought it might make sense to have all the US stuff in one place. Dan, what do you think?

Sure, I don't have any objections. I'd recommend waiting until all the buses are finished first however George, thanks! I'll try these as soon as I get home

OK, just say when.

But I'm going to put it in a ZIP file! And we should give it a proper readme.

Oooh, when I get home from work tonight, I'll be sure to give these a whirl! Thanks George, Thanks Dan!

Not a problem What I'll do from now on is post short buses here, and the LV versions in George's thread

Motor Coach Industries MC-8

RTS Bus - In Progress

Well, now they are stored at my site, both the Dos and Win versions

George, thanks for coding and hosting these, but I noticed a few small bugs in the short buses version...

- The MC-8 is an MCI (Motor Coach Industries) bus, not GMC
- Some sprites are switched
Actual Bus Sprite Shown
======================
ACF/Brill IC-41 GMC TD3701
Flxible Clipper ACF/Brill IC-41
GMC TD3701 Flxible Clipper

- "New Look" should be renamed (in both LV and short) to GMC TDH-4510 "New Look"
- Where's the GMC TC40-102 "Classic"? It's in the LV version and I got you your weight

Also, for some reason, one of the International trucks is named "Flxible Airway as well (see attached), but has the proper capacity

I'll have a look, but why do you use 3Navistartrucks instead of 334navistartrucks?

Good question...
