OpenGFX - Graphics Base Set

Soeb, so FooBar's code worked? Good then I don't have to code it

[FooBar]

Very nice, now I at least don't have to pay you guys

[Wookie]

@Soeb: Well... personally I dislike your new selectors. I don't like the gray shading (maybe this is the reason why they look thicker than original ones).

[Eddie]

It's not really my place to criticise but I feel I have to put across my distaste for the selector graphics. It seems to me that the gradient is the opposite of what it should be. I'd prefer to see the center of the lines being a lighter colour whilst the edges (also maybe a bit thinner) fading down to a darker colour.

[LordAzamath]

Hmm.. I gave the selectors anotjer go.. I used the sprite which is your one point in that grf.. The point is that all corners of a tile would be covered with dots like this.. I haven't aligned them properly so that's why it's a little bit off and somewhere you cans see double sprites.

Soeb, what do you think?
The grf currently makes both possible, your set and my modification. It's controlled by grf parameters.

EDIT: I'm thinking that maybe it's more useful to apply the same piece of code as in the advanced terraform patch (accepted into trunk and present in beta3), which does the same for raise/lower tools..

maybe a 3d effect on the squares...

Zephyris selector-as the rest of your sprites= "o_o woooow..." , but isn't something wrong with the right corner?

I would also like to see it on in-game screenshot to see how it fits the (O)TTD style.

maybe a 3d effect on the squares...

Indeed that might look good...
Would like to see it in game . (maybe change the white a bit? could be a bit to bright?)

The dots are also cool, but don't really feel like a whole...

I'd love to try out some things myself, but I would have to learn to mage grf's first . Maybe I'll do that one day

keep up the good work .

newFonts - Small Fonts v0.1
Complete new small font, now includes lower case...

Could anyone who understands how to insert letters with accents etc. in openttd please test the offsets/alignments of the more unusual characters. I know some of the symbols are the same in the new font, but there is only so much you can do in a 1 bit 5 x 3 image when you are trying to draw an ampersand/dollar sign/star/etc. Any suggestions on how to make them more unique are welcome, although I reckon these are essentially un-copyrightable...

[Zephyris]

Sorry to double post, but I would rather not pollute my font release

Re:Nickman and Wookie
It was a very quick mockup - its not the correct size or anything, just a concept.

And a fun fact, the fonts alone make up 672/6990 = 9.6% of the original graphics!

[DeletedUser5]

The one by Zephyris will look like that. I'll give you a grf when I'll do other ones. And only if you like it.

[Nickman]

Looks good Soeb, only the corners need some finishing touches .

[richk67]

You will always get a brightness difference at the edges because the outer edge will only be thickness 1, and the inners will be double thickness.

[Zephyris]

The left and right corners will never work entirely correctly due to the sprite overlap...

[Nickman]

I'm not talking about brightness, but it looks like there are some "holes" at the edges Don't know if that can be fixed?

Toyland infrastructure for lordazamath to code

Toyland infrastructure for lordazamath to code

Will be done tomorrow morning.. I'm too tired today

[Zephyris]

The offsets for the tunnels are the same as in newinfrastructure v0.2....

*edit* and what is sample.cat for? what does it contain? is it vital for the game?

[DaleStan]

It contains the sound samples, and yes-and-no; OpenTTD won't load without it, but not having it won't disrupt gameplay, assuming you remove the places where Open tries to play a TTD sound.

[LordAzamath]

And in the general OpenTTD forum, there is a Sound Replacement Project going on by orudge..

EDIT: And should I use default windows palette or toyland?
EDIT2: And Zephyris, if you could post 1005-1010 then we would have junctions too, I think.. Similar for monorail and maglev
EDIT3: And Zephyris, you didn't give me all crossing sprites.. Those what have to blink are missing...
