OpenGFX - Graphics Base Set

[Xander]

One thing which just sprang into my mind: the road exit of the castle is now in the middle of two tiles. Given that no player can build a road access there, it might be nicer to have it such that a road access can be built?

Seconded.

As a thought, why not go in this order:

Hill with small keep
Hill with castle
Hill with castle, towers coming up from hill base
Hill with castle, towers and moat

You ideally want the moat last, otherwise it's very hard to grow

Oh... they were meant to be in company colour?
My bad then: I removed company and action colours from the png and converted it to the remaining colours in the palette.

EDIT: will actually every wagon come in an image file with the exact same layout as the sugar sprite? That'd be awesome and make alignment easy as pie and WAY less tedious than some other sprites I added so far. Or just one big image file with all wagon sprites... but just as nicely alligned

Yeh I can do that, I persume you used the one called sugar final? I'll do the rest in that exact same layout to make it easy

Yes, I used "sugar final" And I presume, that indeed the wagons are partially in company colour, eh?

Well all the blue bits are cc, I wanted to keep it bright and cheery like toyland is, anyways, cfloss and toffee here.

I'm having problems adding wheels to the passenger/mail cars, can I make them 3px taller to a height of 15 or is that too high?

FooBar guesses it's alright. I'll guess then the same Bright and sheery like toyland sounds great You could copy the wheels from existing wagons (e.g. temperate or so), if you like.

[lawton27]

I've done what I can with the mail van here, a second opinion is always good, what do you think?

[FooBar]

Still tapered

Try making the red doors in the \ and / view one pixel larger at the sides and the top. Thats fysically not entirely correct, but I think it looks better without turning out weird.

Ok, I'll change the doors, are you shure the tapereing on the roof should go, I based it off the origional graphics toyland roof, that curves over like that..

[FooBar]

I'm quite sure about the roof.

[lawton27]

Ok, what do you think of this:

Edit: i might try change the door

[FooBar]

Better already! Maybe add one extra red pixel to the top of the door in the \ / views. The one that's there now is a bit lonely if you get what I mean

[lawton27]

Hmm, hows this?

[AndersI]

I think the height difference between _ and the rest is too large.

_ is 10px from rail to roof, / \ and | are only 6px from rail to roof. I'd suggest 8px in _ and 7 (or 8) in the other views.

[lawton27]

Sorry I don't get back to that my internet crashed, I'll see what I can do about that today.

I thought I just share the latest "real" additions to OpenGFX:

sugar train and depot view in toyland

They really look good - and in CC they look better than my first test

[Zephyris]

Sweet! Lookin' good, keep up the great work!

[FooBar]

Sweet!

Best comment ever on a screenshot of a sugar truck


I can only comment that the _ view needs to be moved up 2 px... Not a very positive comment that, but someone has to complain, right?

[LordAzamath]

Just a progress update what I've been busy with I'll take a little break now
