Hmm ... looks to me like the race is still on ...

There is now a website for this set and it can be found at:

That should furnish you with all the information that you require.

Can't wait to use those tunnels in my OpenTTD game.

v0.1 released
The DOS version has NOT been tested yet, so if someone can try it and give us some feedback, that would be appreciated.
Also, any other feedback, please let me know!



Edit: Ive added a great screenshot from Ameecher:

Ben_K and Ameecher, I declare the race a tie!
Here is your screenie ... signed by me too.

Edit: Thanks also goes to Oskar (eis_os) for making new tunnels and the eyes possible.

That's quite nice, Ben_K, well done .

Well done everyone! Looks fantastic!

Yeah it really looks terrific.

Wow, they really do look good in your game Rob, now then, to code the other climates.

Thanks for the comments everyone. Im glad they are useful to people. Shouldnt be long before we have v0.2 with cold bits...

now all that is needed is a gravel re-placement

Do you mean to replace the 'track only' sprites? I mean, I can do them but they will apply to all uses of that sprite (Im not sure where else it is used).

I think its used on the tool bar and for junctions, ie the game draws the base sprite and then these sprites over the top.

Yeah, I thought about that last night. I think its a better idea to leave them Henry, as I think they are used on every terrain type etc.

I mean on the top of the tunnel, a)have dirt ground. b) have some whacky design idea that actually works!

If you made the top of the tunnel have ballast like the TT track then it would look weird when there is no track on top. I like it like this.

I mean use the dirt grund sprite. (it would have anti-grass-pellets in it)

Weird request, but could you make different version of that tunnel with building on top of it? I would like to use it in cities, and sometimes, in big and heavily urbanised cities it looks really weird to have just grass above a tunnel. It would be cool if you could add there a small building, maybe a kiosk, telephone, or even some car park).

The trouble there would be being able to differentiate between rural and urban tunnels which to my knowledge is not possible.
