New Company Colours (NewCC set) Version 0.3

[andythenorth]

I've given it a quick go with FIRS

Worth saying that FIRS limits the company colours used for many industries, to prevent some horrible looking combinations

Like any other NewGRF.

Where do i put it? i put it on the same place as my other NewGRFs but it doesnt work
P.S. Does it work for OpenTTD?

Just download it from Bananas and activate it just like you would any other NewGRF. Note that it won't show up in the main menu, you must start a new game for it to take effect. Once your game is started, you may notice that the GUI is lighter than usual. This means it is working; go to the colour selection menu and take a look

HTH,
Jake

Bannanas is the in-game on-line content system, however it also has a site here

Edit: Beat me to it!

[Fairyfloss]

A bit late on to the bandwagon but I've got to say this GRF is brilliant. Thank you for sharing it.

[Level Crossing]

Are you sure? The grf only replaces the default company colours (it doesn't add more of them), and you will still get the old colour names unless you also apply the supplied patch.

Perhaps it might help if you posted some screenshots of your NewGRF Settings and of the Company Colour Scheme window, then people might have a better idea of what you're actually doing.

just a small suggestion from my side, but if this colorscheme proves to be so good, we might want to include it directly in trunk and/or the default OPENGFX ?? specially if everyone agrees that these colors are "better" and/or more usefull, maybe via parameter (use old/new)

It's in the download on the first page.

Are you at least seeing the new colours in your game?

What I did to each colour: (UPDATED)
Dark blue: Used darker versions of the normal blue
Pale green: Made greenish-brown colour
Pink: Made into dark red
Yellow: Made yellower
Red: Same as original
Light Blue: Same as original
Green: Made into same as 2CC green, slightly darker
Dark Green: Same as original
Blue: Made into black (dark grey)
Cream: Made into a much better cream or beige colour
Mauve: Made into reddish-brown colour
Purple: Used different purple
Orange: Made much oranger
Brown: Used much browner brown
Grey: Made light grey
White: Used original pale green

Could you please make a graphical representation in a table form. Similar to this? http://newgrf-specs.tt-wiki.net/wiki/Fi ... olours.png

OK, here you go

Not sure if it is 100% correct though, I made a few adjustments here and there, as this is from my testing pallette which I used to find the right numbers. I'm pretty sure I tweaked the purple, orange and beige, I'll make a more accurate one when I have the time.

May I request
1) the permission to use it inside ECS Town vector?
2) to reorder them? I want to replace less colours, and I want that the set of replaced colours should be the same. (I mean this set and ECSTV would replace the same colours, making possible to use NewCC after ECSTV, and NewCC would only modify colours that are not modified by ECSTV yet)

This question is rising because currently some ECS industries disable appearance in some colours (excluding the case when a player of this colour builds the industry). For example, ECS Factory is not build in white (unless you are playing as white player and build the industry). This is done to prevent some colours combinations (mostly orange, cream, white) that do not fit well. With new CC this may be avoided by having a better colours. But changing as much colours as NewCC set does is a way too much. So, a partial solution may be better.

[Emperor Jake]

May I request...

Certainly, do whatever you want. It's very simple code, it shouldn't even need a license or anything.

Nice idea witht he ECS, by the way, I'll be interested to see how it looks.
