Actually it says only if Purno's bridges are not selected as a parameter.
Basicly if European set is active and Purno's bridges isn't picked.

Well, nowhere on file its explicit that that is the case.

This is the text on the readme:

"- With the European Roadset selected PikkaBird's stone bridge will automatically be loaded if you place pb_viaduct.grf above combroadw.grf in newgrfw.cfg. If you also switch RobC's cantilever replacement bridge on, it will just work fine with PikkaBird's stone bridge."

And as I said on the previous page I will not change it until the next release. I could've been more clear perhaps but I wasn't, hence the discussion here.

I found a bug.
The opened road/railcrossing isn't correctly lined up with the rest of the roads.
If the gates are closed then the lineup is correct.

btw the other direction is OK.

Could it be that the upper "gate" is somewhat hidden behind the electrified railroad thingy, (whatever it's called in English

)

The gate is fine. It's the *ROAD* that isn't:

SAC has a point, the left bar is cut off, but that is because the crossings must stay in the tile boundaries, no?

I see that now! It's the graphics not properly aligned or the coding not properly done!

Thanks for the bug report, RobC. Now I've got something to fix

Yes. Thats why we can't have giant gates of doom

I'm currently fixing it and the gate is cut off too. Expect a fix to be released later this week (DOS and Windows).

I was wondering, is it possible to create freeways, kind of oneway traffic with excentric routes for the vehicles (thus the vehicles do not drive just right and left of the center line, but from a line out of the center.

nguwland...

I asked this question in my topic a while back - that's not a criticism that you didn't look - and I loved the idea.

But apparently it's too much work to do what I suggested - that is to merge two roads next to each other into a freeway.

I think that's what you mean. I certainly like the look of those sprites.

If not feel free to blast me to the ground!

Is good

The cantilever bridges are not being supported by collumns to the ground when built on a mountain higher than 1 block.

I wouldn't feel save driving over this bridge hehe.

Yes, it is possible with one way roads

, but it has some limitations: only straight freeways are possible and this won't work on sloped tiles. Also the sprite sorting doesn't work properly

I have made a grf file with your sprites. Can I have your permission to release it?

I was toying around with the set, and found that the 'Tubular Steel' bridge is broken as well as the 'Steel Cantilever' one.

Attached is a screenshot.

Can you tell me what grf's you had loaded beside the roadset, DarkVater? I had some glitches with the tubular bridge too but strangely not all the time. I never noticed the glitch with one of Purno's bridges. I'll have to look into it.

I coded support for combroadw into OpenTTD (almost, needs parameter support as well), and had the same tubular-bridge glitch there. In TTDPatch I had no other gfx loaded either.

I think the sprite-data for the tubular bridge is wrong as, especially the pillars part. Also got another question: in the set around sprites 620-681 there are 2 great bridges with what seems US-roads. How do I get those?

Looking into the pillars problem showing through it seems to be something with a bounding box.

Great set btw

.

Edit:

Yes, confirmed, if you don't draw pillars the tubular bridge (in the Y-direction) is ok. The X-direction seems to be fine.

Hyronymus · Post by **Hyronymus** » 16 Apr 2006 10:33

You should get the American roadset bridges by only using Purno's bridgeset and the US roadset. I think Lakie coded it correctly to work like that. I'll ask Lakie to look into the pillar problem with the tubular bridges. Thanks for thinking along, DarkVater
