Which new update would that be? Pre 2.5 or Pre 2-3/4?

A symptom of new station testing I'm afraid. When I was helping Michael test the New Stations set (the one that introduced the platforms for the first time), changes in how the code was done (to make it easier to add new stations and do modifications) mucked up the existing stations.

My guess is that Aegir is moving towards a code format that he is happy to work with, and I'm more than willing to re-build my stations each release if it means it is getting easier for him to work with the GRF file.

I know you're not complaining (I don't see you complain, you're one happy camper

), but I just wanted to make a comic.

Keep up the good work team, I love this set!

i never complain, the only times i've been complaining was about the fact that i complain too little.

anyhoo, this set is really getting something big. soon, with the additional platforms, it'll be the largest station set in history. awesome!

Astath, I did a few small adjustments to your country station clock tower. Main reason was to remove the "Leaning Tower of Pisa" look

Reduced the size of the clock a bit too and added a bit more shading. Below is the result.

IMO this set could use some more modern architecture in the stations.

looks great, this is a lot better then the original imho. you should ask Aegir to add it, 'aight?

That was the plan, but I'd only have the two buildings, then two platform variants. I need more than that to make an new class up

well, although i like building like this, i was actually thinking of rebuilding the entire station. but if i do, i'll try to fit this upgraded version in.

Some assorted freight platform tiles

You broke the shading on a few tiles, but no matter. Ill fix them.

Happy happy joy joy!

Born Acorn · Post by **Born Acorn** » 29 May 2005 08:03

new ones in that case!

Now to start on some buildings for them

also a new spriteset. It has new platforms in properly sized so the don't stripe anymore.

Aegir · Post by **Aegir** » 29 May 2005 08:26

Weee! Neato.

I've just asked Born via IRC to fix a few shading errors on the inside corners of the U platforms, and fix that last trace of a solid color line on the full tile platform. I've also asked him to finish the other end of the loading ditch/ramp thingies. Born also says he's going to work on some buildings that take up a full tile for the freight class.

Some neat stuff should hopefully turn up soon.

I design some modern station roofing, but I don't have the talents to texture it. Would someone else like to finish it (add / view, texture it, add details)?

(Platform size is based upon Born_Acorn's platforms)

Born, could you make like loading ditches the other way round, and a flat platform to go with them? Then we could have an even bigger range to your Industrial station

Purno:
Wow, looks great, very impressive. be good for a station next to your suspention bridges. it would matc perfectly

lobster · Post by **lobster** » 29 May 2005 13:32

purno: that looks awesome. it really does. if i wasn't the lazy bum i am, i'd finish them as good as my capabilities limit me. but then again, i bet Born Acorn, Cornelius and maybe even Jezulkim are already fighting 'bout the job.

I hope so, I can't wait till one of my graphics gets into the set
