Kruemelchen's Cookie Jar

[Kruemelchen]

Hi everyone

In this thread I'd like to release all my 'small' NewGRFs, which I don't fancy to open a thread in the Graphics Development section and give an overview about all my developed NewGRFs in a single jar.

And now get yourself some cookies and lay back ...

Kruemelchen's Cookie Jar
Road

• Country Roads [NRT] 1.0 - set of off-road-esque road types
• SUV (Supplemental Unsurfaced Roads Vehicle Set) [NRT] 0.3.2 - full set of off-road-drivable cars mainly from Eastern Europe meant to be used in combination with Country Roads GRF
• Eastern German Road Vehicle Set 0.2 - subset of above SUV set containing only on-road vehicles from Eastern Germany and neighbouring countries. May be played without NRT.

Water

• Water Way Road [NRT] 0.3.1 - street-like canals and rivers with a basic set of small 'ships' to use with it

[Kruemelchen]

Water Way Road [NRT]
Latest Version 0.2

This GRF provides a canal-like Road Type together with a basic set of small 'ships' to use with.

This GRF can only be used with NRT patched OpenTTD (RATT).

Features:

• Road Type WWAY: support for Road Vehicle 'ships'
• 5 'ships': Gondola (PAX, freight), Accumulator Boat (PAX), Solar Boat (PAX), Speedboat (PAX), Small Freighter (freight), which can run on WWAY 'roads'
• 'ships' use 2X zoom graphics
• 'ships' have custom half-load and full-load cargo graphics and run 'lower' on full load
• look and decorations vary per town zone: rural area = riverbed look, urban area = concrete look with decorations in city centres
• 4 styles of decorations (fences, bridges, locks, ...): Original, Mediterranean/..., CityObjects/French/..., Scandinavian/Australian/...
• snow aware graphics
• parameters to adjust to play style
• 'ship' tunnels

Thank you so much, but all these GRFs wouldn't even be possible without the great work you've contributed to NRT!

I'm testing out Water Roads 0.2 with openttd-ratt-geb78e579. I'm not getting any styles but OpenTTD-style rivers, no matter what I'm changing it to.

Thank you for testing it out

This is intended behaviour, I forgot to mention it in the post .
Outside of cities the Water Roads look like rivers, inside of cities they get a concrete containment, and in city centres decorations like fences and bridges etc. are drawn upon that. Only locks will appear in every town zone (randomly).
I get it, the picture above is also misleading

I'm sorry if this automation seems inconvenient. I didn't want to clutter the road menu with several eyecandy versions of the same.

Now that NRT supports 63 roadtypes, would you consider allowing players to build each type of water road rather than have it based on the town zone?

Water Way Road [NRT]
Version 0.3

This GRF provides water based road types together with a basic set of small 'ships' to use with them.

This GRF can only be used with OpenTTD 1.10 and later.

Basic Features:

• Road Type WWAY (water way) and RWAY (river way): support for Road Vehicle 'ships' (WWAY)
• 5 'ships': Gondola (PAX, freight), Accumulator Boat (PAX), Solar Boat (PAX), Speedboat (PAX), Small Freighter (freight), which can run on WWAY 'roads'
• 'ships' use 2X zoom graphics
• 'ships' have custom half-load and full-load cargo graphics and run 'lower' on full load
• different styles: water way = concrete canal look, river way = riverbed look
• decorations vary per town zone
• 3 styles of decorations (fences, bridges, locks, ...): Mediterranean, CityObjects-esque, 'Scandinavian'
• style of decorations is automatically set by climate (changeable via parameter)
• snow aware graphics
• parameters to adjust to play style
• 'ship' tunnels

Additional Features:

• Road Type FORD (fording of river way): only available if 'off road' vehicles are present¹
• Road Type FRZN (frozen river way): only available in arctic climate²

1) at the moment, only my SUV set (see first posting) is supported
2) this road type does support usual ROAD vehicles, unless my SUV set (see first posting) is loaded

Possible Features of Next Version:

• water way for swamps and lakes
• broader rivers and canals to give more visual space (for bigger boats)
• parallel use of different styles via different road type (this process started in this version by separating canal and river type)
• new objects for decoration

Hello,

I have a question; if I install these files like the Water Way Road, where should I be able to find the building menu's for them in the game?

Thanks in Advanced!

Water Way Roads will be under Roads.

Hi.

About the water roads, can it connect to real water? (Eg, lake or sea) and can the ships be used on real water as well?

No, it can't. It's only a road (not looking like a road).

Tschö, Auge
