Swedish Houses [Version 1.1 released 06/06/10]

[Co-RNeR]

OK, now that that part of the discussion is over........
I couldn't help noticing this:

....the INFRA release to come

I know I'd better not keep my hopes up for any release soon, but.......

A quote like that proves that there is a God and he is mercyful.........


Good to see that life's lightened up a little for you SAC.

[DJ Nekkid]

Guess why.

Two of the probably best drawers for TT-gfx had quite similar interpretations of a quite white train?

You are no artist, you don´t understand it.

I guess you heavent seen the two first letters of my nickname then? It is also my professional pseudonym. Speaking of witch, how much did you make last month, or year, for your artistry?

Wow. The next faulty "argument".

That weren't an argument, that were a statement.

[DanMacK]

This has the possibility of blowing into a ful-fledged conflagration here... let me inject another artists point of view here.

As artists, we're very protective of our work. If something looks similar, it raises the hair on the back of your neck.

DJ Nekkid, Think of it this way... you do a mix, and then somebody does something very similar. It may not be the same, but if it's blatantly deriven from your mix and incorporates parts of yours without your permission or knowledge, I assume you'd get a bit protective.

There's only so much difference somebody can do at TTD Scale. My BR A4 looks similar to all of the other A4's out there. That's the nature of it, especially with smaller graphics. Same with buildings. Irwe has apologized to SAC and explained his reasonings. I see nothing to be gained by opening up a can of worms here in Irwe's thread.

We all do this as a hobby and because it's something we enjoy. Just because we don't get paid for our work doesn't give it any less value.

Best thing would be not to try to "get ideas" from other people´s work but from "reality".
In general, don´t take a look on others people´s work "to get ideas"

Can't agree.

Would you say I've done bad?


P.S. It is really easy to ask permission to use someone's graphics and get them (I have permissions from MB, Simutrans artists, JP set devs, Oz, dmh_mac, BerberJesus, FIRS devs, Zimmlock, and may others). It would be a good solution to ask a permission if you've decided to use someone's graphics as parts or prototype. And always note about it in read me or on the site.

P.P.S. Every set I did has several persons in authors list. It means I've used somebodies art (with permissions, of cause). But I do not think it makes them worse. We all work for future of the TTD-world.

[Zephyris]

OK people let's stop this discussion on my Swedish houses thread. Let me and SAC take care of this on our own.

As Irwe says, please let this discussion die. It is being taken care of, and both people both seem perfectly rational and considerate.

[SAC]

I believe Dan expressed an artists stand very well!

And by all means, Irwe and I have sorted things out! No need to declare war, all you bloodthirsty creatures...

[George]

No need to declare war, all you bloodthirsty creatures...

[ISA]

bloodthirsty creatures...

By all means we aint bloodthirsty creatures.... we just are new .grf thirsty creatures
and SAC welcome back to the community... If she ever quited... That's very unlikely!!!

Well there is that bug again. It happens to most buildings larger then 1x1 tiles and it has to do with how the buildings are splitted. Me and as are aware of this and will hopfully deal with it later on.

It's a shame that I havn't been home for a week so I havn't been able to draw anything but when I do come home we'll continue and try to get another release out soon.

[Kogut]

So posting next images similar to this is useless?

[Irwe]

So posting next images similar to this is useless?

Yes, we know that this happens to most (all?) buildings larger then 1x1 tiles.

Yes, we know that this happens to most (all?) buildings larger then 1x1 tiles.

The flats and stadium you posted are the most obviously buggy ones, I'm surprised that it took so long before they were reported.
Still, thank you for reporting these bugs Kogut.

[Kogut]

Things like this are rather hard to notice, both were found during following view of buggy truck constructed by aiai.

[Irwe]

Well as you all might noticed me and SAC sorted things out and we both continued on our work. I redrew the Hötorgsskrapan a little bit to make it fit into my other houses more.

I also would like to say that this set is moving to it's final state and after the next release (which necessarly not will be the last version) I'll leave this set aside and move on to one of my other planned sets such as Swedish Road Vehicles, Swedish Infrastructure or Swedish Stations.

Tell me set what you want the most

[DJ Nekkid]

Stations!

[Kogut]

Swedish trucks compatible with german road vehicles.

[andythenorth]

Scandinavian trucks to the scale of Dan Mack's NARVS tests

[Chrill]

Stations, no doubt. Stations. There really aren't such a big variation in stations today. You have the Japanese, Dutch and newStations, really, for passenger stations. It's very limited. A new addition would be very welcome and I'd be willing to help you out just as I have with SweVehicles and SweHouses

[Irwe]

Well we got 2 on stations and 2 on vehicles. I'll wait untill tonight before I decide so keep posting your will!
