Re: [UNIV] Wallyweb's Graphics Releases
Great ! At last Just wanted to ask about building rocky ground tiles. Is it available at this stage?
Looking forward to this project

Now that I have OTTD installed on my system at home I will test this further.slaca wrote:In openttd i can't build lighthouse next to the water like in your second post, except i plant a tree first (maybe openttd's 'bug')
I'll look into this as well, although I'm not sure what you mean by a shadow. A screenshot comparing the two objects and their shadows (or lack thereof) would definitely help with a fix if one is required.Small lighthouses have not shadow (when pressing 'X' button), but the towers have.
There should not be any restrictions. You are planetmaker, so I'm sure you have the latest nightly. The nfo code was included with your download package. Do you see anything that might cause this for you?planetmaker wrote:But I'm somewhat unable to build any tower or light house.

If you are using TTDPatch, the rocky ground tiles are in the default file released in the newobject tutorial. If you are using OpenTTD, I still have to do a default newobject grf, hopefully based on OpenGFX. More about that later.SILVER_777 wrote:Just wanted to ask about building rocky ground tiles.

Thank you one and all for your interest.

Re: [UNIV] Wallyweb's Graphics Releases
I would think that shouldn't be needed if you are plucking the original sprites out programatically if that is possbile ie. not you actually including them in the grf.wallyweb wrote:If you are using TTDPatch, the rocky ground tiles are in the default file released in the newobject tutorial.

Re: [UNIV] Wallyweb's Graphics Releases
Actually I'm doing a bit of each. Each newobject tile consists of a groundsprite which I access programatically. This is what you see in transparent mode. Then I do the actuall sprite from a sprite sheet. I find it easier to manage this way, although I could probably do this part programaticaaly as well.robotboy wrote:I would think that shouldn't be needed if you are plucking the original sprites out programatically if that is possbile ie. not you actually including them in the grf.

Re: [UNIV] Wallyweb's Graphics Releases
Thanks for the screenshot. It's not so much as a shadow that is missing as it is one of the transparent phases. I'll get back to you tomorrow on this one.slaca wrote:Small lighthouses have not shadow (when pressing 'X' button), but the towers have.
About your other question, I have moved it over to here. Hopefully Rubidium will see it and provide an answer. Thanks for bringing these to my attention.

Re: [UNIV] Wallyweb's Graphics Releases
I checked versions, even on another computer, but the same result (OpenTTD r20835): objects are grayed out and whereever I click, I get of course the error message that the object cannot get built. I ran OpenTTD with grf debuging turned on and it didn't result in any complaints and I don't see anything suspicious in the source either... which is by the way extremely well commented (though I didn't yet check every single byte of each varaction2 sprite).wallyweb wrote:There should not be any restrictions.

Besides that I noticed that you gave the windows and dos version different GRF-IDs. That's quite uncommon and might be a bit unfortunate... it allows to include the same grf twice.
EDIT: The error message reads in translation "object cannot be built"

Re: [UNIV] Wallyweb's Graphics Releases
You've set property 0B (climate availability) to 1, so both objects are only available in the temperate climate.

Re: [UNIV] Wallyweb's Graphics Releases
I'll have to correct that to make it work in all climates. Give me a couple of days to get it done ... Check back Monday morning.Yexo wrote:You've set property 0B (climate availability) to 1, so both objects are only available in the temperate climate.
I did that on purpose so to make it easier for me to resolve any issues that may have been platformed based. I did include the platform as part of the grf's name in the Newgrf Status Window, so a player should see right away what platform the file is intended for.planetmaker wrote:Besides that I noticed that you gave the windows and dos version different GRF-IDs.

I checked it out and the same happens in TTDX's transparency modes. Both objects use the same code so I have to assume that the lighthouse is simply too small to resolve in transparency.slaca wrote:Small lighthouses have not shadow (when pressing 'X' button), but the towers have.]Small lighthouses have not shadow (when pressing 'X' button), but the towers have.

Re: [UNIV] Wallyweb's Graphics Releases
Is the small lighthouse is a full tile sized sprite?
(Since I noticed some small trails on the tile, I presume that those should be on the ground tile (or using multiple ground tile definition))...
If its added as a sprite on top of the ground tile, it'd explain it all going dark?

Well, those trails are a part of the building sprite. I'll go home and experiment.Lakie wrote:Is the small lighthouse is a full tile sized sprite?

Re: [UNIV] Wallyweb's Graphics Releases
I think what I wrote about the 2cc set also applies here:
What say you?This set is probably not complying with the GPL... It is stated that the code is under GPL, but the graphics not. That would be a violation of the GPL, as stated on the official GPL site. Or is a GRF file made from both together not a combined work?
--- Licenses: GNU LGPL, version 2 or newer, code and graphics. CC-By-SA, graphics, alternatively. If you're using any, I'd like to hear about it --- Call them "track types" ---
--- Mostly inactive developer for: NuTracks - Central European Train Set --- Running/compiling for: Linux (x86) - Android - Windows (32/64 bit) ---
--- Need a file packer? 7-Zip --- BOINC - use your computing power to benefit science --- Block trackers, not ads --- Unix in dispersible pellets, the formula for the future. ---

Re: [UNIV] Wallyweb's Graphics Releases
I think you should have read the little "license files", it states the nfo code is under "GNU GPL", but the graphics are under "Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivs 3.0 Unported License".
Since the whole grf is not under one license, I do not think that comment applies.
I personally think its acceptable to have a different license for the graphics and nfo code.

Re: [UNIV] Wallyweb's Graphics Releases
Agreed, since the nfo code and the graphics do not have to be used together. When the GRF is decoded, the nfo and the spritesheet are separate entities. Since the nfo is prescribed by the newgrf specifications, I have no control over it nor claim to it. On the other hand, the graphics are original works authored by myself.Lakie wrote:I personally think its acceptable to have a different license for the graphics and nfo code.

Re: [UNIV] Wallyweb's Graphics Releases
Technically you're distributing a _single_ binary file, the grf - which cannot have two licenses. Only by means of a de-compiler, i.e. grfcodec, I can get hold of the single constituents, code and graphics, so it *might* be considered gray area.
Practically and technically wallyweb the sole author of all this, both the code and the graphics. Thus he can license it practictally and legally as he likes . Even when myself I'd like to see a more permissive license also attached to the graphics, adding a license at all is a gift. Adding none, would mean we'd have no right to whatsoever, not even giving the grf to the friend next door.

1.The tower is not mine. It is a part of another set for which I do some testing. That set is still very much under development and is far from ready for a release.KahlilGibran wrote: ↑13 Nov 2019 13:34 Hi, where can i download the dams and the tower grf? I want to complete my mountain side town
2. On the other hand, the dams are indeed mine and I am glad that you like them. They are still a work in progress, work that is frequently interrupted by other projects as well as real life commitments. The graphics are largely completed. I am now working out a modular system of assembly so that the player will have some flexibility when building them.The complicating factor is that they are heavily animated. I really must return my focus to this project.
