32 BPP screenshots.

[John]

That train is not 32bpp, as far as I can tell anyway. I love these screenshots, they feel a bit more in-game than most 32bpp does

The wagons are, the engine isn't.

The wagons do however "feel" wrong/out of proportion - but looking nice nonetheless.

Yes, the wagons are a bit short, because the limits of the sprites in TTD world.

Hey I'm no genius at this stuff, but wouldn't it help if you shortened the height and width of the train sprites to give them a longer proportional appearance?

[maquinista]

It would look too small, and It would need new railway sprites.

had to use jpg with low quality otherwise it was way to big to upload

Now we just need single-tile double-tracks

[petert]

Neob, is that from the 32bpp mega pack?

[neob]

yep, they are the same.

original idea of 32bpp was actually 2 tracks per tile, hence the tracks where made smaller and trains where designed to fit that....

Can we see more trains? I think they looks the most beautiful.

[neob]

why only trains? we also have a list of other thing, which only growing...



it does looks better than the current models ....


Gresley A4 and the Jubilee and i seen 'Ben Robbins' working on many more




we even have extras, like this paper mill that is not inline with the original theme but i would love to see it in FIRS, ACE or ...



you can check out the progress on wiki or try it yourself ... since it doesnt change how your game plays
its only adds extra sharp new sprites or much more detail if you choose to zoom in ...

I should test it - but I'm not so sure about editing my config file which other versions of the game use (like CargoDist). If I optimize for 32bpp graphics what will happen to my 8bpp games?

[neob]

no need just get the game file pack, its already comes with a default cfg in its game folder...

or edit the file in your my documents, its will have no impact on the other versions
i use more than a few and all use one cfg with the 32blitter on and if it was doing some problem than it would be a bug since the 32blitter should only activate support for 32Bpp files for all versions.

[neob]

another one with some steam engines...

That screenshot with the two trains reminds me of the TT-Forums logo:

if you want i can duplicate it for the 32bpp wiki page

[petert]

By all means...
