''#''openttdcoop uses a certain set of additional GRF's. You will both need them to play on the Sandbox as well on the Mainserver. To ease things up, we zipped the GRFs needed into one single file. Simply download it, extract them into your /data-subfolder of your OpenTTD-directory and overwrite the file "trkfoundw.grf" if you are asked to do so. Get the whole zip-file [http://openttdcoop.ppcis.org/blog/files/downloads/newgrf.zip here].
