My first attempt at 32 bpp grf, rails

[hiperboreo93]

Hi all.

I'm new to the forums, but i played ttd, ttdpath and ottd for 5 years now.

I a mechanical engineer and I`m used to make 3d models of equiment, but i have no knowlegde about textures, light, camera, etc.

I saw that the rails where not taken in the wiki, and I tried to make a model (it took me 20 minutes to make the 3d model, and about 30 to test diferent colors, but didn`t quite get it )

I don`t know if there is someone already working on this, but i like to give it a try (as you can see, i do need a little help)..

ps. i used solid edge v9

sorry for the bad english...

Hi, Hiperboreo93, welcome to the forum! I have actually done quite a bit of work on the rails (e.g), but the wiki hasn't really been kept updated, and I really should have put an image/note there. Of course you can make rails if you want, but there are plenty of things not taken currently, that would be good to see work on.

So try to use PNG instead

Nice start. Keep up the work and maybe this 32bpp project will get done some day!

maybe I can form a team with someone who knows about color, textures, etc...

Here is the same rail in .3ds format (just test a program, I`m noy shure if it work`s)
