I've tried the OpenTTDCoop devzone link, but I get a "You are not authorized to access this page" error, despite being logged in
Devzone is partially dead.

Yeah it doesn't seem to be on that link either - the repository is present but it looks to be a VERY early version as far as I can see, with almost no work done

What happened to the Devzone repository? Is there any chance of it being available again/recovered etc? Or at least access to the files on it?

EDIT: Found the dropbox link (a few pages back)

What do you need "back", exactly?

(Not being facetious, just wondering if there's something specific you'd like to see)

Oh it very much isn't.

The repository has 58 commits since the start of September, including

- Re-drawn 170 (including fixing the "Only has the Central Trains livery" bug)
- Added pacers (Classes 140, 141, 142, 143, 144)
- Avanti and another Virgin livery for the 390
- New class 333
- Heathrow Express livery for the Electrostar
- Class 47 and 57 added, with about a dozen liveries
- New Northern livery added to most of the fleet
- Addition of most of the units from the MUTS expansion (800/802/805, 755, 769, 68+Mk5a, 195, 331, 345, 397, 701, 707, 710, 720, 745, 777, 807) and some work on making their liveries more consistent with the rest of the set (mostly updating BRTrains units to the MUTS liveries)
- New TPE livery for the 185
- Re-drawn 319

And a bunch of other bugfixes and some work on re-scaling some of the worst offending units, consolidating liveries between units (GWR is one of the worst offenders) etc

When I asked if there's anything they particularly felt was missing, it was so I could add those things to the to-do list

Currently, no. In future, absolutely yes.

The sprites are drawn and most of the code is there, I haven't actually checked yet why it doesn't show up - most likely it will be because it wasn't quite finished at the last release - but it shouldn't be too much hassle to add it and I intend to do so

Any idea when the update will be out?

Really it just comes down to “when it’s ready” or “when I run out of time to dedicate to the project for now”, whichever comes first

I’ve got a couple more models that I definitely want to fix (319 is a big one) before there will be a release, but it’s also a question of adding enough to be worthwhile overall - I’d rather release a few big updates rather than lots of piecemeal ones, because I don’t think most people update their GRFs too often. Maybe a month or so if I get a good amount of time over the Christmas period (not gonna be doing much partying this year, but I’m damned if I’m gonna work!)

If you join the discord though, I can always send a current test copy of you want to take a look

Just a quick hello to say cheers for all of this. I've been using BRTrains in a game i've had running form onths on end now, no bugs or glitches or oddities. Really great work, and it's awesome to see it sounds like another version will be out later with even more stuff, from what i've read.

So I've been working on this for far too long, off and on, and decided that I should probably release something otherwise I could keep going forever and never have it perfect.

When I took over on the set I had two goals

- Fix the glaringly bad errors
- Add some modern units and liveries so that you can pretty much create the modern network

There are about 40 entirely new units, and about 20 more that have been re-drawn. I've lost track of how many new unit-livery combinations have been added, but it's well into the hundreds

As it is, I feel like the majority of the worst offending "bad" units have been re-drawn, the worst of the sprite alignment issues have been fixed, the worst of the glaringly bad liveries or livery inconsistencies have been fixed, and the worst of the badly-out-of-scale units have been fixed... it's a much better set than it was a couple of years ago

So, it's almost time for a release. Changelog included in the next comment because, well... it's a bit big

Currently I have two or three items to complete before release

- Consolidate the 80X units and liveries
- Add the FLiRT units (mostly drawn already)
- Re-draw the Aventra (745? The Crossrail one) and include the other new versions based on that rework
