I like them very much, the idea is unique also

Try adding doors, windows, benches and lamps, unless it's a cargo station

its a SHELTER, a TRAIN SHED, you store a engine in there for repairs or during the time its not used.

i like that thing, jezulkim. t'is a little bright and a tad bit colourish, but it could become something cool. a new depot, coming along with the Gen. stations for instance.

The extra sprites for the platforms and the platforms for the station base.

Even if its a shelter, theres no always necessity it to become a depot replacement, you can do pretty cool layouts with diffrent kinds of sheds via stations.

New version: darker sprites and doors.

Born Acorn · Post by **Born Acorn** » 27 Feb 2005 16:07

they do have warehouses where goods and mail are often loaded.

Villem · Post by **Villem** » 27 Feb 2005 16:11

then usually its called a "goods shed" instead of a shelter.

lobster · Post by **lobster** » 27 Feb 2005 17:07

well, it could be a station part ofcourse, but it could also be a new depot graphic. isn't that a nice idea, depots that change along the year, just like MB's waypoint stations. i see something in that.

Villem · Post by **Villem** » 27 Feb 2005 17:40

would need a new patch functionality just for that matter.

Okay, we're definatly getting a freight class now.

Also, good work on furthur delaying the next version, I have to get these in and going

.

However, the platform and the wall has to be merged into one sprite, I'll do that myself however, you just worry about getting more of that fantastic stuff out.

And Born: Great work, those platforms themselves look very good.

Infact I have an idea, How about we use the rooves and walls of Jez's, with Born Acorns platforms?

Im all for it, so, well, off I go...

you're doing it to yourself you know...

anyhoo, if i get some inspiration (and a good drawing program) i'll hook up some ideas of freight stations i had earlier.

edit: hurray! i just figured I.mage and it's incredible palette tool. i'm back in business, and tried a little stationing and also tried to do a dutch steam train (both failed miserably though).

Born Acorn · Post by **Born Acorn** » 28 Feb 2005 14:09

I found some probs with last times sprites. So here are new versions, and a mock up.

Very nice work Born Acorn

krtaylor · Post by **krtaylor** » 28 Feb 2005 14:37

Since we're doing freight stations, is there any way someone can draw a station with an overhead traveling crane?

Born Acorn · Post by **Born Acorn** » 28 Feb 2005 15:00

that was the plan for the one above. But it buggered up when I couldn't get that many shades of safety yellow. Maybe Ill have another crack at it.

krtaylor · Post by **krtaylor** » 28 Feb 2005 15:12

Safety yellow on travelling cranes, is fairly new. Originally they were just iron brown.

lobster · Post by **lobster** » 28 Feb 2005 15:58

'ere, my first I.mage experience, some loose platforms. not good, but it's something.

edit: allright, this better be cropped. t'ust a minute. oh and, by the way: i used Born Acorn's platforms as a basis, so, just that you know it eh.
