Great, thanks.

Yes, you've missed them. And they're here for some time right now.
But great work. Now I can see what I did and how it looks.

Screenshot of this as soon as I can get one.
With the new GUI 0.4 - or the OpenGFX pack - the colored spots in the NewGRF window are always blue, not green, grey, yellow or red.
Edit: Image attached. All of the GRFs are active, the bottom four are static ones.

Confirmed. Those sprites need to be recoloured to company colours.

What ho, folks.
As I'm sure many of you are aware, TTD's original large UFO and it's corresponding interceptor were based on ships from the first X-COM game (something between a medium scout and harvester, and the skyranger, respectively). With this in mind, I thought it would be appropriate for OpenGFX's such sprites to be based on designs from a similar FLOSS game.

Thus, for your judgement, I submit these sprites of mine as replacements for the large UFO and its interceptor, based on UFO:AI's UFO Carrier and Dropship:

: ufo-dropship.png (1.53 KiB) Viewed 8274 times

There are two red dots on each of the camera-facing sides of the UFO, which are alternating red-cycle colours. Flashy-flashy.

My main concern about these sprites at the moment is that they may turn out to be too noisy/messy to fit in with the TTD/OpenGFX style.
I'm also not sure if the dropship will appear well-defined enough, to people not familiar with what it's supposed to be, to recognise it as a dropship...

(and the forums won't let me attach my .xcf

)

Looks good.

Concerning your concern with the style (:D).. I think that these should not be too much in the style as they are supposed to be different in some way by being disasters

I don't think that so bright green will blend nicely. Can you try with a darker tone?

Better yet, I can try with *two* darker tones!

There's also a variant where all four engines are grey, rather than just the back two. Perhaps breaks up the green a little more.

So I got an error message with this.

Known bug and will not be fixed. Use this instead: http://www.tt-forums.net/viewtopic.php?p=727224#p727224

I really should add some notice somewhere about this...

zaratustra · Post by **zaratustra** » 08 Oct 2008 18:12

How about in the wiki page where you so helpfully linked that file?

LordAzamath · Post by **LordAzamath** » 08 Oct 2008 19:06

Btw Zaratrustra, not all the GRFs in your screenie are supposed to work together

zaratustra · Post by **zaratustra** » 09 Oct 2008 04:05

Yeah, I'm not quite sure which ones -do- work together and the documentation doesn't help.

DJ Nekkid · Post by **DJ Nekkid** » 09 Oct 2008 06:52

in general i'd say:

* as many station GRF's as you want
* One city-set
* One bridge set
* one set per "misc" (i.e. signals, new catenary or similar)

* As many Shipsets you want [1]
* As many Trainsets you want [1]
* As many Planesets you want [1]
* As many RVsets you want [1]

[1] Grapical it's ok, but prices and/or running costs may be "way off"

True. I helpfully edited that yesterday

A suggestion: How about removing the gridlines of the terrain?

LordAzamath · Post by **LordAzamath** » 12 Oct 2008 09:29

This has been discussed and the conclusion was no.. Although Zephyris might release a gridless terrain set too.

Zephyris · Post by **Zephyris** » 12 Oct 2008 11:45

I can easily and will produce a gridless terrain set but its not a priority. Tbh it doesnt look that good, we need terrain tile randomisation first...

Gen.Sniper · Post by **Gen.Sniper** » 12 Oct 2008 14:26

Hi, You guys are doing lots of work here. But.... but... I have one question..... where I will found full pack of GRP grfs? I know there are here but I have a little bit mess in such many versions....

Roujin · Post by **Roujin** » 12 Oct 2008 16:26

The wiki gave me a link to this post: http://www.tt-forums.net/viewtopic.php?p=727224#p727224
It's not a pack of newGrfs but a base graphics replacement set, so make sure you follow the instructions in the post.

FooBar · Post by **FooBar** » 14 Oct 2008 19:08

Hear ye, hear ye!

I just published what I like to call "sprite overview": http://spreadsheets.google.com/ccc?key= ... zrZOPFgfWw

This here overview lists everything what's and what's not included in the latest 'build' of OpenGFX.
It also includes a 'who's done what' part listing the graphical artist and coder for each group of sprites. Because I think it's a good idea to have a list of this type included with the final release of OpenGFX, it's important for everyone who has contributed (especially coders!) to check this list real quickly and help me fill the gaps.
If you like to change anything, then either PM me the changes to be made, or PM me your email address so that I can add you as a co-author of the document enabling you to make the changes yourself (you might need a Google Account for this).

Things listed in yellow still need to be drawn/added.
