I don't get that Open TTD thing, I had 2 trains (one for passengers/mail and another for foods/oil) that ran through all of the towns on one map, but I still have almost 60,000 in debt. I make like 28 bucks per station that they stop at.

Also, my boats never seem to make it to the docks, they just float all over the damned ocean.

How the hell do I do this right?

Well, did you take my advice and do the tutorial?

From your tale it sounds like you didn't tell your trains to fully load their cargo before departing. When you tell a train to go to a station that has shit to pick up, you need to hit the Full Load Any Cargo button to make sure the train waits until it has a full load.

Siren (Episode One mod, works fine with Episode Two too)

Vegeta, I get like how to give orders (though now I have buses and trucks working well) but even after 6 stops, I still get a "not enough orders" message and quickly run out of money.

Also toyed with the ships and had a REALLY good setup, but I ended up spending money faster then I could make it.



Barnz - Does that mod have anything to do with the game Siren?

 

[Barnz]

No. Siren is set in the Half-Life universe.

o u no

I almost had a pixelgasm but then I noticed your pixels are all stretched out incorrectly (their dimensions are like 5x4) and it was a total boner killer.

If you're going to upscale pixel graphics you need to do it in clean increments of 100%.

Brings back memories. I had Sim City on the SNES. Shit was awesome.

My brother made an RGB connector for my SNES to hook it up to an RGB monitor. You could see the pixels it was so sharp (not as good as VGA of course)

My other brother watched me play it for a while and found it intriguing. So he got it for his PC but said that it wasn't as good. The SNES version had some unique addictive gameplay rules/tricks of some sort that he said made all the difference.

That's the snes version above. My favorite.


Edit: Four of my buildings just merged to make two huge ones. The casinos and junk I placed in the area skyrocketed the value of the land.

Oh, that's right. Emulators. I was like damn that looks familiar. Pixel for pixel.

 

[Gargantou]

My first SimCity was SimCity 2000 on the PSX.

 

[Vegeta897]

Fix those pixels god damnit!

 

[Raziaar]

Pixel perfect freak!

 

[Vegeta897]

His whole image is stretched horizontally by a factor of 125%. Look at the pixels, they're god damn rectangles.

It bothers me so much that I'm the only one who notices this immediately.

It bothers me that you are having a go at Hokey's love of rectangles.

Yeah, quit being a square.

His city planning is going to be messed up because of his warped perspective. If he were to look at a distance 5 blocks up vs 5 blocks to the right, he'd think the 5 blocks up is shorter.

Oh, Vegeta, u so crazy~

DISASTER, INDEED.

Some artsy fartsy shots I made eons ago. I just can't remember which game they're from hmmmmm...

 

[ktimekiller]

looks great

 

[ríomhaire]

Is that Half-Life 2: Update or just plain Half-Life 2?

Either way the game still looks great.

Regular old HL2

 

[Vegeta897]

Looks like the pic with the crowbar has some depth of field going on. Was this gmod..? How'd you do that?

 

[Barnz]

there's a post processing menu.


no, I don't play gmod. I just googled.

 

[Vegeta897]

I know there's a post processing menu in gmod, that's why I asked if it was gmod. :|

But he said regular hl2, and he said eons ago. So maybe photoshop..?

I used gaussian blurs and color enhancements for those shots in Photoshop.

Thanks guys

Hi I would love this shot in a higher resolution, preferably over 1280x800 because that is one of my favourite maps in the whole game

thank you

CLICK IT ^

 

[Vegeta897]

My god what did you do? I hope you're joking.

i resized it because kinetic wanted it to be 1280x800?

 

[Vegeta897]

You upscaled the image to 1605x800, which KA could have done himself if he wanted it to look like garbage. You can't just scale up a raster image and expect it to look good.

Did you even look at what you made? I seriously want to believe you're trolling me right now.

Abit of the quality is lost but it's still alright.

no one likes you millhouse

Enthalpy (Half-Life 2 level)

 

[Krynn72]

lol'd at the upscaled image. Almost as good as taking a photo of your computer screen for a screenshot.
