Pak96.comic Add-ons and Graphics / Re: A station building... my first attempt
Right then, but its a station extention not a platform... It is just a rough draft right now, but the roof is a bit bland i know. I'm going to look at making it dark brown and slated, instead of just flat and gray. But it look alright on the whole?  Its not blaringly bad?

If you like the base building its up to you what one you use or what one you want to modifiy and use. :)

As a side note, Alex. Brose complimenting my pak96.c graphic is quite pleasing, seeing as how your graphics factory was pretty slick and amazing and every positive used on that thread...

Back on topic, i'll continue drawing on this one till you think its good enough and i feel its good enough... i'm thinking of getting rid of thebrown on the roof, and having it all grey...

Just to add confusion to the tale, i've another station building that this time, LOOKS like a station building ;) I'm quite pleased with it, its got bins on the side (look familier?) signs (unreadable) and a ticket machine! As per previous, comments, suggestions/improvements are more than welcome :D Thanks

I see, i tried to use the black lines to much... the ones without black lines works much better IMO. The black line that wasn't necessary, was from the template for a block of flats, that i cut down to size and used to make this. I'll change the sign to read Knee ;) And possibly fix the roof to be a dark grey (as per the grey used on the original peeled paint? See how that would look. Thanks for the help and suggestions :D

Here i have corrected teh wall and removed the black out line on the peeled paint

Here i have corrrected as above and nothing is on the roof

And finally here i've corrected as above and some one has thrown the rubbish up on the roof :O

My permission? :o wow. Sure, i'm totally not fussed. A little credit would be nice :) But i put it on the webz for you guys to test/comment/do whatever with. the window was just to break up the uniformity of the roof. Ill change it if needed.

EDIT: I did some modifications- darker windows, deleted the top roof window, replaced with a ventaltor (for the air con ;) ) and some paint has peeled, since the owner of the shop (see the sign!) brought the grey building and disliked it so he painted it brown using cheap paint. :D Will address the shading. Can you tell me if ijust my roof needs lightening or if there is general shading madness? Thanks:)

I did try to consider shading (thus my walls and roof being differing colors. I'll revise the east wall and the roof color, or maybe make a new roof color... I (albit foolishly) spent the evening drawing this instead of actually playing the pak, so i'm not to sure, i went on a load of screenies and a template for a block offlats, chopped to one floor. I'll resume work tomorrow or monday, thanks for the help, and any other suggestions are welcomed with open arms! (i am adverse to maths, but know roughly that light shining at an angle of below 45 degrees will cause the east wall to be the lightest part and anything over 45 will cause the roof to the the brightest!)

May i suggest some staions/station buildings? In consistant style yet slightly varied form? That would be really cool since you could have a uniform looking station, but each one is unique. :D And its still buildings! Top drawer work. Your buildings got me wanting to have a go at this pak!

I havn't packed it up yet (i really oughta) so can't check it in context to the rest of the pak

 I thought i read somwhere that the floor size for pak 96 was 13 pixles and door height was 10 but having seen some screenies it does look a bit too low. I'll recheck...  ???

And duh!!! Obviously it should have been raised!! Thanks for pointing out this mistake, and for saving the necks of many simutransians who'll have to clamber through a smaller gap than is allowed!  ;)

I'll have a look in to those improvements :) Thanks!

EDIT: I've tried now 4/5 times to pack it up and it just won't do :( So... if some one likes it, feel free to give it a pak file of its own ;) all i ask is for kudos and the credits to the graphics. same with any edits, edit all you wish, so long as original credits are given where due (to me!). if some one does make a pak of this, could they email/put it on this thread? Of course this is all hypothetical, and until makeobj turns out my pak bigger than 69 bytes! (its more than likely to be my dat file though...)

Aside from scale, are their any other graphical (colors, shading ect) errors/improvements needed?

Pak96.comic / Re: Power to the people (image heavy)
As a side, attention to detail note, the base of the legs are to tight... they shouldn't go in to a point (imo) it makes them look like they're not part of simutrans at all... its still better than i could do :)

Pak128 Add-ons and Graphics / Re: LightRailSystemSet [LRSS] Release Before Oct12
I'm still interested. Very much so infact. I think stations are the most neglected part (particularly LR and p****enger) of simutrans... thats just IMO... after a while, all statoins look the same so the more little ones like this (your LR) and the big Sunny Bay one break up the uniformity of staions. :) Its nice, i'll definatly download when released! :)
