Progress report: pre2 is coming along nicely, their will be an estimated five pre-releases in total, each with a new set of graphics in it. At the moment I have half coded Born_Acorn's freight stations he made (Only have the two buildings to do next), then Born_Acorns Wrexham station, Astaths Country stations, and last of all Singaporekid's Dutch stations, the later of which require an issue with GRFMaker to be fixed.

Oh, poor Krtaylor, your going to have to re-do the manual and tracking tables . But dont worry, the last pre will be used for making the manual, and last-minute bug-fixing and sprite additions. Sorry I kept you waiting all this time krytaylor .

I will be glad to fix the tracking table and the readme, if you will only tell me what to do....

Dont worry, just wait a few days (Up to a week) and 1.2 will be almost done, then, before the release we'll work through the tracking table and the readme.

Im going for quality on this release, so a good readme is essential.

Progress Report: Almost done coding Born_Acorn's freight stations. And no, I have nothing better to do on a four-day weekend (Good friday and easter monday \o/ ).

PRESENTING: Project Generic Stations set, v1.2pre2!
In Dos and Windows flavors for your enjoyment.

New sprites for the suburban dutch station

Looks good Singaporekid! They'll no-doubt make it in to pre4 or 5. You reckon you can make an over-pass to go with it aswell?

Yeah, I'll make an overpass, once the sizes are fixed
Purno, can you redraw your overpasses to fit this sizes?

Singaporekid, that overpass looks far to low for catenary

In fact, I think that both the overpass and the dutch-station are too low, meh, we'll find out later, Im no-where near coding it yet.

Yes, definitely, that whole collection is out of scale.

I made some new parts to my station (station building, lamps, basic platform)

Looking better so far, the roof needs more work IMO, Dont forget though, to make a full set you need an overpass/underpass and atleast some benches or shelters. Like where your headed though.

Well, I have some slots in the drop-down box still free for Born_Acorns Freight stations, would you like to cook somthing up using his dark, bare platforms and your shed sprites? Just a suggestion .

I love the platform there

Overpasses.

How's this for a new overpass?
It's 14 pixels from the ground

very nice.

Both of those preceding overpasses are very nice, and should be added. That way we have a dark-colored overpass and a light-colored overpass, so there'll always be something that matches. I'd like to see the colored Dutch overpass.

We need a better traveling crane though. There's one in the set, but it doesn't look very real.

Thats really starting to look better now, I'll now officially wack that on 'the pile' (tm)

'the pile' now consists of Born_Acorns Wrexham station, Astaths stations, Yours Jezulkim, and Singaporekid's Dutch stations.

I made a new version of my oldstation.

If you're going to have the station hang off the back like that, then you should have a small concrete pad for it to sit on. Otherwise it looks odd.
