Truck station GRF's?

[kotssmurf]

Hello,

I've been playing a road vehicle only game for a while.
Trains bored after playing with them for such a long time, and afer discovering one way roads and viewing other people's magnificent creations I came to like these type of games!

The only thing that bothers me is, I can't seem to find any GRF files that contain decent lorry and bus stops.
Is this because there just arn't that many people intrested in making them? Or am I just to blind to find them?

Thx in advance!

GRFs can change only RV station graphics, not behavior right now.

You can find improved graphics in the OpenGFX package. Also there are imo their 32bpp/extra zoom variants (check the EZL mega pack).

Problem is that the game only allows for one design of road stop. This doesn't make it really interesting to create a specialised grf for them. Most road set come with their own road stop designs though.

I agree that the road stations (and depots) aren't realistic, altho they are still good for gameplay. As a former semi driver, i've seen many loading/unloading stations, and very few of them look anything like our basic 8bpp options. But when the drive-thru stations first appeared, i thought were pretty cool.

Perhaps covered stations or at least warehouse-docks would be a nice addition. Are there any inspired GRF authors?

You can still use some rail statia design and then attach the road stop to a small part of it..
