Dutch stations set

[MJS]

Is Hilversum in a category on its own, or is that just my configuration? (Playing OTTD with the latest ChrisIN - that's somewhere in around 109xx, I believe)

It is. Probably because it's the only station building with tracks. The other station building are just buildings, no tracks.

[MJS]

Ah, that makes sense. Thanks!

Are there any plans to add passengers waiting on the platforms? I really like the Dutch stations, but I've also grown so used to using those crowds of passengers at MB's New Stations as a signal that there's something wrong at a station that I couldn't do without them any more...

That'd be sooo cool indeed, but I think we rather concentrate on empty platforms and on how we want those to look and function, and then add passengers. That sounds like less work then adding passengers now and having to change a lot of sprites whenever something was wrong.

I have those graphics, but they are of my platform set, not from purno's. I will look them up. I also have a start of a snowy version...

[XeryusTC]

I think that it is easier for me if I get sprites with people waiting ASAP, especially since I'm secretly converting some stations to be more comprehensible. During this process it will likely be easier for me to add extra sprites, although it might as well be possible afterwards.

[Purno]

Ehm... don't expect me to adjust those sprite anywhere soon, but if someone else wants to do it, be my guest

[Caelan]

I was slightly mistaken. THe only thing i could find was this picture, an early start...

[Purno]

I've done an early start too, probably not further than creating the people.

[XeryusTC]

Hmm, I discovered some uncoded sprites drawn by Caelan, they're quite simular to the ones in the set but have a fence around them, should I include those too?

[Purno]

Do they have the same platforms? Caelen's used to be a bit darker than mine.

What's up with the Dutch Stations Set? Is there still some progress in developing?

I'd really like to play with this set, and maybe with some help I can help coding as well...

[XeryusTC]

Needz gfxz 2 codez .

In other words, the artists need to draw some sprites and I can probably code them if RL allows it.

[BlueEagle_nl]

Same goes for me, just deliver the files (and some small instructions) and I'll help coding as well.

[Purno]

Xeryus, wasn't there already a version ready to be released?

There has been a lot of drawings. Are those already coded?

[XeryusTC]

I think I posted versions that were ready to be released in this thread so everyone could have a look at them, instead of dedicated testers. There should be one in at least one of the last 3 pages .

[Purno]

The only station building I see in the latest file (one page back) is Hilversum. I'm sure there has been drawn more of them.

And the single roof thingy got an action color in it, plus it should spread some more (not just 1 tile roof).

Perhaps I'll draw some other roofs which can be built on a single platform not connected to another adjacent one.

[Purno]

Tada

Perhaps I'll make something old style too. But modern stuff is just so much more fun

[BlueEagle_nl]

Looks good Purno!
I really like the modern-style station you've drawn.

Also the stations in the releases are great!

[BlueEagle_nl]

I noticed whilst playing with this set, the non-track platforms are slightly darker than the other platforms... Further, it looks great in combination with the Dutch Train Set
