Playing with the ground

I decided to have a look at grounds (and specially at slopes, foundations and sidewalk, if i can put some snow on it).
Here's the first screenshot: foundations.


I would like to make also an arc, like in pak96.comic, i'll try to see how does it look.

EDIT: the pic is big and it is hosted on my server. Right click and select View image to see it in its full dimension.

looks good!

on the bottom row, there a fundament seems to be transparent.
Parsley, sage, rosemary, and maggikraut.

Much nicer than before.

Texture seems a little bit oversized, though.

there is a tree on its right, i'm afraid it's a display flaw independent from the foundations

well, bricks are 3 px high and a few px large. smaller than this i'm afraid no brick would be seen (anyway, they are smaller then before and much smaller than those of many other houses nearby. But once zoomed out you see only white lines and tiles look much bigger. see it full size here: http://public.gonella.eu/simutrans/simscr17.png

Well, of course my statement was concerning the full size screenshot.  ;)

As graphic artist i am sure that it'll be possible to use smaller brick textures (just try, hehe) but hey...
...It's nice. I like it.

Ok, i'm sorry for the misunderstanding...
I'll try some more, but if in the meanwhile you can suggest me some nice textures ;)

Feedback is appreciated, if the quality is enough, i'll release the sources for the main pak.

Well done!
Carry on, fabio. :)

But listen, you'll have the pavement from the arcs on the water, if the slope was placed on the riverside.
The same procedure as shown in p96c. :D

Oh, wow. Very nice!

My projects... Tools for messing with Simutrans graphics. Graphic archive - templates and some other stuff for painters. Development logs for most recent information on what is going on. And of course pak128!

Very very nice. But some little things.

The shadow on the darker side should be from top to bottom not from bottom to the top. Or is it a reflection from the bottom?

I think the shadow on the sunside is to long. Your shadow need a very very high sun.

I'll work to shorten the shadow on the S side.
On the E side, it is from SE to NE. On the bottom (and sometimes in the middle) there is some dark patch which comes from infiltrations and humidity in the wall.
