*cough cough wheeze cough*

Holy crap in a handbasket!

Born, born born born, that is very very good. Definatly next on my list for coding after I finish the Silverline stations (Good god, everything but the large roofed tube station done on them by the way, I might just leave the tube station for later).

This is one of the reasons I am starting to get picky about what graphics I include, just look at this, they work perfectly with each other:

Yeah, Im trying to get the old country class back in, and I've coded most of Silverline (Damn tube station).

I'll be publically appealing for some help with the old country stuff shortly, it needs fleshing out desperatly.

Probably, but its fine how it is for now. When assembled it looks fine.

Thats the Silverline platforms btw.

has the silverline been "re-scaled"?
I had the old file already but never used it because I thought that the scale of the thing is way off. Too high platforms, buildings too big, etc. Seams to look better now. Good work.

Yes, the Country stuff does need some work, but even now, it still fits in perfectly. Do you see what I mean about the classes fitting in together? Your older work demonstrates this perfectly, but your newer hand drawn work needs some work with the shading, I love the stuff you draw, the elements you drew for the last station were brilliant, but Im going to have to be a bit strict with the graphical style if I want to try and keep a reasonably consistant look to the set.

I always thought the country station was quite nice!

Maybe the rail systems have more money in Europe, but in the US it's not uncommon to find different platform styles, based on when they had to make the platform longer, or only had money to repair half of it, or whatever.

krtaylor, shouldnt the 'Tracking Table' in the P:GS site be updated?
Since Born Acorns/Purno's glass station is now coded and the like.
Also can i have mine/cornelius designs taken off? as there a bit... well... cant think of the work. out of date really. i didnt really make them, and im making my own ones now. If you get the idea. The Concept idea's im talking about by the way.
Do we need any more pictures of new stations aswell? Like the Glass Roof Station thats just been coded.

Some Platform styles are identicle in certain area's.
Richer towns will have larger, concrete stations. Poorer ones, or small ones, will often just have Paving Slabs, Tarmak, or the stuff they use for School Playgrounds (Cant rembember the name ATM)

The tracking table is badly obsolete because Aegir has changed quite a few things, and I'm not sure what. I need info from him as to what I ought to update.

Yes, as I keep saying to people, that will all have to be updated prior to 1.2 release. Same for the readme.

It's the same here. Some parts of a platform, the yellow line will be tiles, other parts, it's painted on. Different layers of concrete/asphalt, uneven stations. It's especially common at the lesser used stations.
