With the crosses I'd actually go more in the isometric perspective:

They look ok too .. and the others where you places a few flowers. Maybe I should do some multi-select with about 8 choices of each type.

There also some small churches in my AuzTownObject set that has some graves .. wonder if some like those go good as well.

[GarryG]

I just made up a multi-select tile set for the graves.

Some head stones have flowers and some have people visiting.

I left the previous ones in the set as well so players can choose which way they want them also so it not harm a game in progress.

Like to try do non-military type graves too, but the images I looked at on google there so many styles. If I get chance to do any I think I would try a old country style set like the old cemetery at Dungog, NSW, Australia.

Looking good!

Again, though, just a tad less bright may be better looking. I mean really a smidge.
I believe that your bigger ones were a bit less bright white.

and less scary.

Been busy this week with a sick mother-in-law and not getting much time to do anything in my projects. Looks like this will be a problem till well after Easter.

One thing I did work on this morning while she was sleeping is a windmill. Been trying for months and near impossible to do the blades at a angle. So I tried face on with this result.
It kinda looks like it turning. Whatcha think?

Hope to do a few of this design. One on it owns and the others with water tanks next to it.

By the way I did darken the grave head stones .. seeing what else I can add to the AuzTownObjects before I upload it.

Cheers

Update to the windmills .. fiddling with the fab blades try make them look better.

Here 4 minor differences.
1. Is same as image in last post. The grey blades point 1.30, 3, 4.30, 6, 7.30, 9 and 10.30 and 12 on a clock.
2. I moved the blade shading .. changed the blades so they point 1, 2, 4, 5, 7, 8, 10, and 11. also darkened the center where the fan mechanism is.
3. Same as 2 except blades slightly darker grey.
4. Same as 2 and 3 except it do not have the darker grey in the center.

When get the fan blades right can use the windmills to refill the dams or water tanks.

Any suggestions appreciated .. even with my glasses on my eyes not the best for proper details.

I like:

2: Looks like slow moving

4: Looks like fast moving

But what do they look like in regular zoom?
Because 1 is looking good in that

An animated version could be nice too.. (maybe just two steps needed and then fiddle a bit with the speed between the steps) (maybe use 1 for that, that looks one where you can easily make two steps of by rotating the blades 45 degrees)

[GarryG]

I like:

Thank you,

This normal zoom.

I been relieved of my duties looking after my mother-in-law for the evening .. so I will now have a look at animated ideas.

Cheers

[Quast65]

I personally dont like number 3 in regular zoom.
The other three look fine to me.

[GarryG]

Hi all,

I re-made the windmills and they now animated. The fan-blades do turn.

The 1st one designed to go near dams and lakes.

The next 3 have a water tank for the livestock .. the 2 dots you see in the water is splashed from water being pumped into the tanks. Water is actually coning out of the pipes, but unfortunately in blends in, but can see where it enters the tank.

Here the updated AuzFarmObjects so you can water your livestock.

Garry, are you planning to enter this month's NewGRF competition? The theme of "Unique Structures" sounds right up your alley. (I'm currently starting my entry, but we need three entries for the competition to happen. )

I guess I could have a look at it. Maybe some of the old buildings I working on might go good there.

Hi all,

A few additions to AuzTownObjects.

Updated the Cemetery and added some old buildings.

gravelyards 04.png (43.65 KiB) Viewed 3294 times

The houses are also in AuzFarmObjects. The other buildings are blacksmith shops .. find them in Shops menu. These will be added at a later date to AuzIndObjects and also hope to add them to a Industrial set eventually as well.

More to come when I get chance, probably not be till towards end of next week.

Cheers all

Hi, with family commitments not getting chance to do anything new, so I using what time I do get to try finish graphics that I started before.

This image shows oil drilling and oil pumps top ones and bottom ones on the drawing board to represent gas drilling and gas pumps. Still need to re-shade the gas pumps as they only a flip version of the oil ones. But first I see if can decide a colour for them.

Other object graphics I started to do and not finish yet.
- Gas wellheads but not find a clear image yet to get a better how to do them .. also there is so many different designs. Also like to design it so you can use the white pipes in the ISR/DWE sets and some I did to connect them to tanks.
- old style sawmill
- earthen dam or a weir
- horse drawn machinery for farms

The windmill took me months to do so these might take me just as long.

Cheers

Hi GarryG,

I've notices a glitch with a few of your newer grfs. When they're placed on a slope, they keep to the ground level rather than being slope aware or being built on a foundation. Here are two examples. Was a problem with a few other objects as well.

Thanks for the report on the blacksmith shops .. I forgot a portion of the coding to tell it when on slope to also build a foundation.

The fence is not slope aware .. if you place the fence on flat ground it will align properly with the tile edge. Wondering .. if these types of fences should build with a foundation if placed on slope? and maybe have a slope aware set as well?

Something to think of.

Here update to AuzTownObjects.

[GarryG]

AuzIndObjects:

I flipped a set of oil pumps and changed their colours .

Now have 2 sets of pumps and 2 sets of drills that can be used for both Oil and Gas explorations. They are animated.

Need to decide the grey colours drill should I keep the people or remove them ,, and it the other drill .. at moment don't have people, but should I add some so they can dance like the others do?

[Quast65]

Both
Version with and without workers.

[Fredinho]

Great! Yes to more workers

Just out of curiosity: I really like the look of your sawmill on water! Do these parts exist as standalone objects as well?

Okey dokey .. shall see if I can hire some more people to work on the other drill platform.

Not yet .. but should be able to do something about that when I get chance.

A version of the wharves and the boat ramp are in AuzWaterObjects .. but the wharves in that set are clean compared to those with the sawmill.
