I think it is better to keep discussions in this thread instead. Ask orudge if you want a page made for the project.

You could edit the sprites of Dutch Road Furniture or so, I guess.

Nice, but it's missing a lot of vehicles

Woo ! Let's write some .nml and .lng .

EDIT : Sorry to bug again, but the sizes of similiarly faced sprites (ie. the two / views , the two \ views, the two _ views, the two | views), including the blue bounding boxes, are different. Through it's quite much not a problem, but this forbids the use of templates, and may makes the code longer (than using templates). As there's only two vehicles, I'll just use direct spritesets of them.

EDIT 2 : Also, you have some wrong shadings. When you mirror the image, don't forget that the light direction stays the same, means different shades.

I Took The Graphic

You can't just take the graphics. You may be violating copyrights. Did you check that?

Your sprites is way too big, wrt to the white boundingboxes :

Nah, let's use the long vehicles scale (3.3 pixels per metre)!

Probably not GRF yet, as Purno stated. But I'll happily show you the whole code :

Anyway, why I can't put in the grfid "IRVS/00" ? I can just put "IRV/00". I remember when I tried to code a station, it was said that there are 4 bytes available.

Nah, let's use the long vehicles scale (3.3 pixels per metre)!

I'd be grateful if you uploaded a corrected version !

[Quast65]

Those cars are way too big for the Openttd scale

[TinyMusic]

Those cars are way too big for the Openttd scale

Yup, and it's even bigger than the long vehicles scale as well (3.3 pixels per meter). According to Wikipedia, this car is 4.265 metres long, so that would be around 14 pixels in length, but this car is about 31 pixels!

Those resized ones are at least in a better scale.
Furthermore, I think it is very strange that the different views have different scales.
The / and \ views are much smaller than the - and I views. I don't believe that is correct.

That said, it is nice to see that there actually is stuff being drawn.

[YNM]

Could anybody please tell me what's wrong with these heap of sprites wrt to NML Templates ?

[SkiddLow]

yes can fixed that

[YNM]

Also, you should consider your sprites wrt to other aspects in OTTD, like buildings. Your sprites are as high as a full house in comparison.
