Truly high quality stuff!

This is what I'd say is worth waiting for.

OK, a new version is available for download, see first post. New in this version:

- engine Hector Rail HR141
- container wagon with a number of randomized cargo images, Green Cargo engines get special containers
- a number of small fixes - colors, alignment, etc.

This set is still not balanced for game play, all ideas welcome!

Lovely Lovely, I'll try out this new version right away!

looks great, i'll give it a spin.

What about some swedish tank wagons?


Edit: I've tried to draw some of the tanks just for fun, only sideways though.

Last one...

Not bad at all, but they are a bit too big. Compare them to the Gbs, for example. I've made some quick fixes to one of them, to show what I mean:

And they have to be drawn slightly from above, not straight from the side. But they look very good, I'd love to play with those!

And Anders, I just HAVE to say it again: This trainset is just pure quality! Your sprites are the nicest ones I've EVER seen!

Thank you!

(And AFAICS, Irwe's tankers *are* from above, it's just difficult to see when you're looking at a tube )

But now the Shell tanker is shorter then the Gbs, are wagons in different sizes? I thought all wagons had same length.

No, wagons can be shortened (a lot). See the following picture (but note that the diagonals seems to be one pixel too low in this template):

Oh I see, but why can't the tankers be same lenght as the Gbs?

Because they are shorter in real life?

I just wanted an answer. I dont know much about trains

Sorry if I offended you! Please continue drawing, it is rather lonely here on the Swedish Trains Board...

I'll help the best I can, I love this set!

I've resized the tankers in proper size. If you want AndersI I can draw rest of the angles when I have time.

looks good! The only think i would do it to put the bumpers 1px higher. Now im not sure on where they are on the other sweedish trains and wagons, but in the 2cc set are _most_ of them there.

I took the liberty of 4xing your image. Made a red square on what is the base of the wagon. Switched positions on the right part of the middle wagon, and on both of the last one. And it's hopefully clear to see

In the Swedish set the bumpers *should* be at 3 and 5 px height, although not all of my sprites follow that (yet). That would be the same as your correction here, right?

Yes, please! If you haven't tried it before, you will notice that diagonals are much harder to draw

Don't forget that the sun is from the right, the second diagonal can not be created just by mirroring the first (unfortunately).

I've made some progress on the tankers, only one diagonal left. Please correct me if I've made any mistake so far, I get the feeling that the diagonal view isn't right.
