It's fantastic that people pick up ideas so willingly :) thanks to you all.
I thought of sacrificing the wooden bridge to make room for the short monorail bridge and alter the bridge's speed (and maximum length!)

--> Downloads new graphics now :)

Thanks again

using the version of the monorail.gfx on that site there appears to be something wrong with the arched sttel girder bridges.

Both sides of monorail bridges, and the near sides of all other bridges are black instead of the usual silver/grey.

In my Win version I don't see this problem. The pcx file for the dos version also looks normal. I don't have the dos version nor the possibility to run it. I don't no how to identify this bug nor how to fix it :(
May be some one, who has dos version, can help me?

That is the windows version. Running via patch 2.0.1 Alpha 4 under XP.
ttdpatch.cfg and newgrfw.cfg atached.

Then it's your mistake :P You have used dos version of the grf file :!:
Windows version has W at the end of the name.

NewMonorailW.grf
and
NewMonoroilMrHuntW.grf
are windows versions of the file

monorail.grf
and
morahunt.grf
are dos versions of the file

Odd that that is the only thing that should be different though!

Are you using win or in dos version of the ttd?

@George:

Maybe you should give them names which are more clearly, for example georgdos and georgewin and Huntdos/win.

Dosname is limited with 8 symbols and I'm too lazy to have different names for grf and rar files :)

Question: where can I download Mr. Hunt's graphics from?

EDIT: :oops: Sorry! I found it on George's site...

To bring this topic back to life: two pics from my private monorails test area.

@George, are you still on it?

Have anyone thought of making a new hovercraft? The original one is to big for these bridges. I can´t make it fit.

That's part bridge, I don't like it.

Don't like it. :shock:
Man you don't know where you're talking about.

Very, very nice bridges.
Look at the stone road bridge at the top right of the second picture.
Or the new tunnel entrance.

:shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock:
And then of course then amazing blue suspentionbridges.
Just plain wonderfull. :D
The monorail bridge looks a bit odd because of the way the cables are attached to the monorail, but I don't think there is another way to do this.
Another strange part is where that bridge crosses over five tiles, but none the less the part I like most is that where the two towers are connected with eachother.
Just keep up the good work Marcel.
I'd love to play with these bridges and tunnels. :)) :))

Yes, I am. As I can see, you have decided to make the same bridges for the roads, railways, monorails. A possible solution, but the original Mr. Hunt's bridge looks very bad for roads :( So, what shall we do with it?
I hope for the developers help.

@Developers. Can we wait for different front parts?

oh yes .. that would be indeed very good to split normal trains/monorails/magles/electrifeid railways/road bridges graphic :o

Why all the fuss about the using different bridges for monorail? What's the problem with using the wooden bridge and changing it's stats (and changing the introduction date of the other bridges so you can use bridges early?)
