OpenGFX - Graphics Base Set

[Zephyris]

Do these bridges support third party road sets?

In short no. In long in theory they could do, so long as the owners of the 3rd party road/rail sets give consent and someone could generate the graphics, however the trend is that the owner of the road/rail set is generally responsible for providing support for alternative terrain/level crossing/bridge graphics via their own grf. Having said that there is no reason why support could not be included via a openGFX "compatibility" GRF, though it would be a nightmare to maintain...

It would look prettier IMO for the support to look more continuous (see right picture for mock up)

It would be possible, and someone is welcome to try, it would just be a pain with alignment. Unfortunately I am going on holiday tomorrow so any update in the near future won't be by me!

Sorry guys, but Í won't be able to do anything about the road vehicles untill weekend, that's in 3 days..

No worries, I'm sure it will be worth the wait!

I saw aqueducts in the changelog, I didn't know they were working now! I will do when I get a chance.

See attached for sprites, I think these are all that are necessary - reuse the sprites for both the bridge itself and the on/off ramps. Hopefully I havn't messed up the action colours of the water!

*edit* note that I have altered the size of the sprites from the ones in openttd*.grf, the y offsets will have to be altered by 2 pixels (2 pixels down I think...)

Aqueducts look good Can't wait to use them.

Below are the T.I.M. and the Eurostar, modified from Purno's sprites and put into 1CC

Thoughts?

I LOVE this set, looks great..

Just a small thing..

[Zephyris]

The hut thing is recycled from the oil refinery, I think I'll do that industry next. The bit of small airport showing through is a bug, it happens with and without the ariports grf and in your screenshot it is the correct (ie. new) graphics...

Actually, the bit of small airport is not a bug. I put it there when I coded the airport to give a bit of variety in the ground items. Same reasoning behind reusing the refinery office as a maintenance office next to the hangar. It has always been there on the Intercontinental - I suppose people are only noticing it now as they are looking for graphics quirks.

All of the new sets are looking great. And those trains are just so much better than the originals DanMack.

Ladies and gentlemen, UnderBuilder presents:

OpenGFX All-in-One Pak 0.1

Containing near 2000 new shiny sprites and some new features like complete shores and temperate snow*, available right below.

* Not yet programmed in the game.

P.S.: I only packaged them, I didn't created any of the graphics, if this is against the license of the graphics, I'll un-upload it.

LordAzamath did such a thing also on the first post, maybe you could "reuse" his readme and include to the pack?

reuse and reread and eventually rewrite a big part of it too perhaps ..

[DanMacK]

Industries and airports look excllent

One question re: the trians, Does the Turner Turbo *HAVE* to be a douple-headed loco? One of the Tropic repalcements Uzurpator supplied is a single unit loco, but the Turbo is double, can this be changed for the set, or do we need a dual-headed loco?

[Mchl]

Original GFX is double-headed, and so must be GFX replacement.

The Turbo by Uzurpator had been multiple unit one.. And I'm pretty sure I coded it so

[DanMacK]

Hmmmm, Well, he stated it's based in a DL Class loco (Australia), which isn't a dual-ended loco.....

[LordAzamath]

Well idk, but it anyway acts like a two unit train...

I can live with that

[DanMacK]

Working on the temperate locos, and the HST posted by DJ Nekkid looks awesome, but as Rich pointed out, it's not "realistic". although we're not really going for realism here. I persaonally prefer the Silverlink livery, adds some alternate colour. I'm putting this to the votes though, and seeing what people prefer.

**EDIT** - Added a shot of the A4 w/a train

So far, the Jubilee/8f, A4, Hendry 25/Floss 47, UU37, SH 30/40, T.I.M. and Asiastar are done.

[buttercup]

DanMacK, I actually prefer the 'BR' livery. It's more generic but I think that suits the project as a whole. With the Silverline livery, it would look odd without matching livery on the coaching stock (which you could do for the plus set, if there is going to be one).


LordAzamath, I have played around with the toyland mushrooms you drew recently so that the random colours are retained through the rotting stages (instead of turning blue regardless). There was also a stage missing from one of the cacti you drew a while back so I have added that in (I simply shrunk down the proceeding stage so it matches fine). I hope this is okay with you...


Before I post the updated landscape grf (if LordAzamath is okay with the changes I made), I wondered if it might be a good idea to remove the rivers at the same time and create a new 'water features' grf that would include all the rivers, canals/locks and the aqueducts Zephyris recently drew.

The new canal tiles are slightly wider than the originals and so the new aqueduct is too. It seems like the original supports were drawn to be in the same position as they would be for the road/rail bridges but it didn't look right on the new aqueducts, so I widened the spacing a little and moved them further out (see the screenshot). It isn't much of a change but I just thought I should mention it.

OK, here they are... the full train replacements for Arctic, Tropic, and Temperate. The livery overrides aren't included, nor are monorail and maglev yet.

It's a good start though
