Rivers for pak128 January 28, 2009, 10:43:39 am Quote from: fabio – on January 27, 2009, 03:30:46 pmRivers for PAK 128 are READY!!!They are new channel named river.ATM i disabled the icon, so that they are used only when you generate a new map (ver. 101.1-2266 28/01/09 or newer); yet with no icon the player can't build his own river, but only canals. If possible, it would be nice to have its icon for Public Services, as it happens with cityroads.Max speed and max weight are trivial and can be adjusted.Here are the sources:[ obsolete - removed ] Quote Selected Last Edit: February 12, 2009, 12:12:17 pm by fabio

At the moment, there is a problem. If you delete the crossing, the first remove is for the river. So you can not build the river, only a channel. Quote Selected

Would you mind opening a bug report, or do you want this post to be moved there? Canals+rivers should be removed last, due to their high cost, and the low probability of an alternative route.Actually, IMO rivers shouldn't be deletable tile by tile in their middle, because the water needs to flow somewhere.EDIT: stupid me used the wrong account.

Also, if a river crosses a city, you will want to "change" the river course.EDIT: topic name changed... and, seems we have a problem: the discussion about river development has split up into 3 topics... Please, keep the discussion here on graphic approach. Quote Selected Last Edit: January 28, 2009, 06:37:34 pm by IgorTekton

Re: Rivers for pak128 Reply #17 – January 30, 2009, 05:55:05 pm Well, the way you made the first river was just what it needed. Now there is possibility to have more types, so it might be good to have more of them with varying sizes. The only requirements  for "rivers" (and not really enforced) are:1) water waytype obviously2) player can't build (probably better)3) added in simuconf.tab as a riverI updated 128 to match this specification and added your river. If you update your wc (working copy of svn), it should be there... also check out the pak64 repo, as suggested, it uses two river sizes.One thing that I wanted to tell you about your first river was, the end (start?) tile does not have to be covered completely with sand or what it is. Oh and one more. It is straight, straight, straight... Natural foramtions are all but that. For the largest river size it is fine, but smaller ones should have a bit more jagged edges, so that they don't look as abandoned canals. Quote Selected
Re: Rivers for pak128 Reply #18 – January 31, 2009, 10:02:05 pm thank you for your suggestion, i started working exactly the way you told me now...i hope i'll manage to finish it next week (i'm a bit caught these days, but i'm working on it) Quote Selected

New rivers for pak128 - screenshots Reply #24 – February 09, 2009, 02:02:37 pm The work is almost done, i want to test them better.Lighter water is for streams (not navigable), darker (= canals and sea) for navigable rivers.TODO list: - some ice for winter images- some shadows- small details at stream source (maybe also in rapids?)

Re: Rivers for pak128 Reply #28 – February 09, 2009, 02:51:20 pm I love the streams! Very nice. Any possibility of slightly reducing the contrast between streams and rivers to produce a smoother transition? Quote Selected
Re: Rivers for pak128 Reply #29 – February 09, 2009, 02:55:59 pm Suggestion - Add white water/flowing animation (not sure if this is possible for ways nowadays) for the slope bits.Otherwise this looks very nice Quote Selected
Re: Rivers for pak128 Reply #30 – February 09, 2009, 03:00:36 pm Oh, one idea (perhaps for after this is done) - it might be possible to add some stuff in turns where is enough empty space. Like reed or such... putting that on straight sections is not good because of repetitions. But that is just cherry on top For now, thee streams absolutely rock as they are. Quote Selected

RIVERS 2.0 FOR PAK128 - release Reply #32 – February 12, 2009, 12:10:34 pm There are 5 types of river: 2 streams and 3 navigable rivers.I fixed the winter images and the source.I smoothed the colour difference between streams and rivers and i smoothed the edges of rivers' intersections.I didn't add reeds or bushes as intended: i wasn't pleased with the outcome.Here are the sources:river_2_0_src.zipand here the paks to test:river_2_0_pak.zip NEWSome screenshots: Quote Selected Last Edit: February 13, 2009, 06:27:20 am by fabio
