OpenGFX - Graphics Base Set

[athanasios]

Never mind it is OK.
Now I add another building similar to previous one.
I changed the color from red to brown, in the general efford to make sprites less disturbing to the eye. Removed the pencils and replaced with a metallic chimney. Roof is partially gray to desaturate CC.

[rbenevid]

Ok.. Actually, I made the rubber plantation the same way. This grf includes both, rubber and fruit plantations. Please note that you can't have both grfs at the same time. The grfID for the fruit planation only and for this is MA01

It looks like the original TTD rubber plantation, but....

I looked in wikipedia to see if rubber tree was really a palm tree. It isn't! (to my astonishment)

Anyway, I think both rubber plantation and fruit plantation looks nice! Thanks!

[athanasios]

No it isn't and I 've seen a rubber plantation with my own eyes. Thanks rbenevid for pointing it.
We 'd better fix it and use palm trees where they belong.
Just another stupidity of TTD that needs to be fixed.

Now includes the updated 4659 and the new 4644.

athanasios, if you want me to stop, or if you'd rather I sent the grf to you first, let me know

Edit: See page 43

[athanasios]

To stop? Why?

You are pretty fast dude!

Well I wasn't sure if you actually wanted someone to code the buildings or if you were just showing us your progress.

Would it be better if I waited for more buildings so that I don't keep releasing grfs that only add one new building at a time?

I know.. Before I started I looked to wikipedia myslef too, but I wanted to do ttd-style
I can change it any moment, because I've got lot's of Zephyris's sprites in landscape grf

buttercup: I cannot promise when I make the next building or other sprite as I am a little busy for 10 or 15 days, so code whenever something is available. I hope other artists won't mind either, since it is a waste to leave work uncoded.

[Zephyris]

All coding help is always appreciated...

[lepkka]

I currently have no sloped water sprites, I was in touch with lepkka about that and he said he may be able to help, but nothing yet...

I can't find it, all i've found in my messy disk is this
I'll have to draw it again from scratch
Edit: Sloped canals makes no sense!

[CMircea]

Less and more random rocks.

[Zephyris]

I would quite like to see what it looks like with no rocks...

[DeletedUser5]

Me too. I'd like to see rivers without any rocks. Maybe one of random sprites should be like that.

[Roujin]

If there isn't any visual hint why ships aren't allowed to go up/down rivers on slopes, people will fill bug reports like "my ships can't go up slopes". Thus I think we do need something like stones in there.

The existing river graphics by Michael Blunck have stones aswell and I think they look good.

[lepkka]

AFAIK random tiles in rivers is not possible ATM

[Roujin]

with Michael Bluncks river graphics it works. It always has stones on the slopes, but there are 3 or 4 different sprites.

Start the scedit, place a river on a sloped tile and click multiple times on it to test. It will randomly choose a sprite.

[Zephyris]

Random river tile support was introduced into openttd shortly after general rivers support, try the latest nightlies.

[DanMacK]

Here's the last of the Tropic/Arctic locos - the CS4000. It's been drawn similar to a General Electric Dash 8 series, so I'd say have it introduced in or around 1988 or so. The Centennial and the CS4000 have been drawn to 32px long. If anyone thinks this is a problem let me know. They'd only project 2px beyond the stations, and I don't think there'd be much of a difference.

Also attatched is a tender and a couple shots of it with the 2-8-0.

It would be optional to allow compatibility with existing savegames but I think it adds A LOT to the appearance. That's just me though

**EDIT** last 3 cars (Valuables, passenger and mail)

Yes, but, ships can go down the slopes. Plus you must have less that half a brain to think that a cargo ship could go up a slope like that. Not even a small boat would be able to on the slopes we currently have, as you need enough force to:

• overcome the gravitational force.
• overcome the downstream force
• send the ship upstream

Ain't that a bit too much? You obviously won't see ships with jet engines.

[DanMacK]

Was just playing around and decided to do up some cargo icons. Didn't see they were claimed yet. All are there except Toyland. The paper, wood and steel are from Zephyris' trains All others drawn by hand.

Enjoy. Toyland will be done later.
