Title: Images for basescreen
Post by: ghosta on October 12, 2008, 08:58:07 pm
Blabla same text I tried to copy 5 times before.

Here some pictures for the basescreen, especially the landing sites.

The little icons can be used as refilling, rearming, repairing, pilot missing icons... At least thats what I thought while creating them.

€: Unfortunately the .zip file has a size of 1078 kb so you have to deal with this:

nice, but we would need this for every single dropship and ufo and interceptor, so it would be a nice idea to just generate the ship pics with a transparent background

Hey, that idea isnt bad. Should the larger dropships be cut into pieces? Like the tiles themselves?

They won't fit in those hangars anyway. Just wait until I finish the 2x2 hangar tile, which will be uhhh.

2x2 hangar tile? I never heard of it. What do you plan?

There's a rough draft of it in data_source/maps/unfinished/b2. It's a hangar that takes up 4 base tiles. It's also made with the plan for larger bases (http://ufoai.ninex.info/wiki/index.php/Proposals/Larger_Bases) in mind. The tile I made isn't good to go yet though. The entrances are on the wrong level and it lacks interior.

no, please don't split the craft images. provide them big enough - so that we are able to scale them once new (or bigger ^^) hangars come out.

it need to add a little perspective for the craft. The base is not a pure top-down view. So the merge of the 2 elements (aircraft over base) look strange.

Here we go:

The zip file contains the firebird with and without shadows (transparent background of course)

I hope you like it
