I recommend you test with the last nighlty r31 http://bundles.openttdcoop.org/32bpp-extra/

I see a r0 revision, I do use a r30 version, that should be a bit better
They can be found here: http://bundles.openttdcoop.org/32bpp-extra/nightlies/

Edit: Szvengar was faster..

Yes, you're right..with the last version the problem disappears...thank you guys!

I have finished the Oil pumps ground. It's finished, with all zoom levels and no lines version.

About pumps: Do You think that They needs z1 and z2 sprites?

The Arctic sprites could be done with a modification of the temperate tiles, but I prefer to wait for a "official" Arctic landscape. I think that the current Arctic landscape are too yellow. A script of GIMP or Photoshop could convert all temperate tiles into Arctic tiles easily, and some BAT scripts can renumber all sprites in few seconds.

EDIT: Yes, the pumps needs z1 and z2 sprites, because They don't have the same position in all animation stages. I have updated it.

Looking very nice Do you think the animation looks good?

Unless I'm missing something, everything needs z1 and z2 sprites...

Yes It looks good. I think that this industry is finished.

The game automatically scales z0 sprites when you zoom out. The problem is that the contrast gets too low sometimes as many details just get blurry. Also, semi-transparent parts of the sprite tend to look weird, so trees and such should always have z1 and z2 as well.

I know, I was just making a joke there. Because of the degrading quality I've written everywhere of relevance (dev documents, repo guidelines, etc.) about the necessity of renders for all zoom levels. I don't consider anything a completed all-zooms release if some sprites need to be scaled on the fly by the game client.

Whoops...! My bad.

It would be nice something to rescale the sprites without need of add the offsets. Doing it by hand needs too many work.

The main problem is that if the sprite has a odd offset, it needs to add a extra pixel in the border. I will explain this with a graphic, I have seen this problem in some Spainset EMUs. The wagons with pantograph sometimes looks at a different level (a single pixel, but noticeable) than wagons without it, at z2 zoom level.

I have tried to scale the bridges with this trick, so they looks better. Other wise, It would be seen subpixel displacements.

I have updated the default station GRF with z1 and z2 zoom level sprites:

I think that It's a lot of work to convert the sprites one by one. I have spent some hours in these sprites.

Sorry maquinista, I'm slightly confused. The sprites are 24-43 but my sprite list says that the station is 1069-1086! Clarification please?

Also that file needs sources and to be in the 'standard tar' format before it can be releaed.

It's a TAR+GRF file. It solves the problem of the station over the grass.

Where is the specification for this tar+grf format?

Jupix wrote:Where is the specification for this tar+grf format?

It's just a TAR file with a GRF file and some PNGs inside.

I can try to include the default sprites that doesn't match with the GRF sprites. The other sprites (roofs) should be added with link files.

I have updated the file with Spain set trains:

http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?53jnytjtzz4

I will add some screenshots and links.

The shadows are very light, I will try to change them.
I have updated the locomotive 260 and I have added some passenger wagons, the locomotive class 333 and class 281.

I have finished the z1 and z2 zoom levels of the industry. The files are in the repository:

I have fixed the forest ground (the random color pixels) and I have added two zoom levels. I have used the interpolation sinc (Lanzos 3) and applying a sharpening filter.

I have updated the ground airport sprites with z1 and z2 levels for ground tiles, with lines and without them.
