New Graphics - Blender ".blend" thread (Works In Progress)

[Jupix]

Double posting here, sorry about that - anyway, I was messing around with the 32bpp megapack in the tropical climate... I couldn't help noticing how badly the orange desert clashes with the bright, desaturated sand on the shack sprites in towns. I took the liberty of tweaking the colors in Wacki's and Ben's ground tiles and came up with what you see in the attachment.

It's pretty bright but I actually prefer this color to the orange. Easier on the eye, and nicely different from the TTD desert.

I like it. It is like the desert tiles of RollerCoaster Tycoon.

I have coded the road depots (and I have added a little shadow in the entry). Is needed a concrete ground tile. I think that It can be released with the bus and trucks stations. The license is GPL.

The license is GPL.

You really should read the GPL and bring your package into conformance, just a quick look shows no copy of the GPL nor any offer for sources,
I would like to look at how it was modelled and hopefully learn some tricks for getting good results!

The source files are in the forum, but I only used the rendered sprites. I will search the blend files.

Nice, but they are a bit to bright. they look even brighter than the sand of the town buildings. The white raster lines should be removed.

[Jupix]

Yup, they'd obviously need to be done properly, from scratch, as the above was just a quick 15 minute recoloring of already existing tiles.

Thanks, but you still need to reupload the original file but this time contain a full copy of the GPL rather than just a link, otherwise you are still not in complience!

[maquinista]

Here my new fountain. I will animate it soon.

Original post:

I think that this fountain is very good, if You render a fountain without the floor, I can code it, because the original font doesn't have floor.

Question; Is Ben Robbins ever going to draw the remaining railway sprites?

This IS nice! I can actually feel sand in my teeth!

[Jupix]

I'd be interested to know whether I'm allowed to post the tar. Someone might be able to improve on it or more easily replace the sprites with better ones.

hey, just got blender working and felt like i might make something, so i made a 32bpp train depot, it still a wip and has no textures, only colours

ive done a mockup aswell, but it does not has shadows falling onto the rest of the tile, so im wonderering does anyone know how to get blender to render shadows on the transparent area, so when this is place on a tile it actually has a shadow on its tile

hope you like it so far

cnc welcome

[Teemes]

You need to have something it can cast shadows on. So add a ground plane to your model, and set its material properties to "recieve shadows" ("Shadow") and "render shadow as alpha value" ("OnlyShad"). The plane will now be invisible in the render window, but the shadows will still be rendered (you won't see it until you save the render image and open it in an image editing program, though). Have fun!

[Slye_Fox]

That, is AWSOME!

[bazil14]

did some texturing today and thought i might try and see if the graphics would work the way i want them to, so i coded one view and tested it, and it worked as well as i wanted

here is the result (not a mockup this time, the realthing)

the sprites are coded, report to me if you have any problems, rest of sprites coming soon, oh by the way, i will need someone else to create a grf for it later, so the windows can be seethrough when you see the depot from the rear, doors still need texturing

[maquinista]

Is very good.

[Varivar]

It's indeed very good. The inner walls need the same texture as the outside, now it's just white/untextured.

[LordAzamath]

Yes, it is, if you only could make it less high

[Purno]

I think it's pretty odd to have windows in the roof, while there aren't any windows in the walls...
Looks nice though
