12:29:46  <planetmaker> V453000, the most difficult part with the pigcow is probably giving the cow a more plastic look so that the hair doesn't look quite so printed :)
12:30:16  <planetmaker> maybe adding some surface roughness already would do the trick. Not sure though. Nor how easy that is
12:30:20  <V453000> I had it set up but the render would take a bit too long :P
12:30:39  <V453000> I made "real" fur, but rendering it takes like 2 hours per frame with the setup I had :D
12:30:51  <V453000> and since the animals are going to be zoomed out, it will be ok this way
12:30:59  <planetmaker> the path around the iglu looks much better now. Though I'm not 100% happy with the colour of the path... making it more bleached-out than the surrounding looks a bit weired
12:31:11  <V453000> mhm :)
12:31:27  <V453000> ALSO, proper mapping would help the fur majorly
12:31:35  <planetmaker> maybe I'd make it rather darker or another colour than the same just lighter
12:31:49  <V453000> it looks so printed because there is a lot of stretching, but unwrapping the UV mapping is work for 1-2 hours alone
12:32:07  <planetmaker> oi, I see. I feared that :)
12:32:14  *** bdavenport [~davenport@aeolus.mindlesstux.com] has joined #openttd
12:32:18  <V453000> I will do it anyway :P
12:32:28  <V453000> and yeah might adjust the path too
12:32:55  <planetmaker> it could also do with more grass at the front edge. Grass tends to grow among stuff which people just pile up :)
12:33:14  <planetmaker> mind, this is criticising on extremely high level ;)
12:33:41  <V453000> :DD
12:33:56  <V453000> it is BUSY junk
12:34:03  <V453000> they add and remove it often :P
12:34:07  <V453000> no grass :>
12:34:23  <planetmaker> no grass towards their path side. But towards our view side :)
12:35:04  <V453000> will see :D
12:59:30  <V453000> cute, whole yeti scene has 875k polygons
13:26:12  <peter1138> Render it every frame!
13:28:19  <planetmaker> don't ask for that peter1138

14:05:21  <V453000> .
14:05:52  <planetmaker> loool
14:05:55  <planetmaker> awesome
14:06:22  <planetmaker> may I nitpick?
14:06:33  <ATS63> heh... higher res images would be cool :)
14:06:49  <planetmaker> ATS63, that is for real in OpenTTD. Just like shown there...
14:06:49  <Eddi|zuHause> why is the thing lieing on its back?
14:07:30  <planetmaker> V453000, the house, it should not 'float'. thus add some irregularity to its foundation. Where dirt is against the wall or a small hole where it sticks out slightly more
14:08:16  <V453000> yarr, agree 100%
14:08:17  <planetmaker> or generally make the courtjard slightly less plane surface. Similarily have the dirt heap have somewhat more irregular edge / transition to ground
14:08:44  <planetmaker> the sun-lit small side of the building is too white
14:09:27  <planetmaker> the animals are thirsty. They need some water in each pen. And maybe a place to feed, too
14:09:34  <V453000> XD
14:09:36  <V453000> y
14:09:41  <V453000> good iea
14:09:53  <V453000> idea
14:09:57  <planetmaker> why does the big fat one not leave? Use a chain to keep it in place
14:10:16  <ATS63> wtf. I just discovered zBase
14:10:29  <V453000> XD
14:10:40  <V453000> it is too fat to walk? :P
14:10:45  <planetmaker> :P
14:10:50  <V453000> but yeah some chains would be awesome there :D
14:11:18  <ATS63> Fat is the better part of pork loin & belly :/
14:11:36  <V453000> XD
14:11:51  <planetmaker> V453000, and I expect the pens to have a gate / entry. Thus a place where the farmer can open it to take on out to the butchers
14:12:24  <V453000> there actually are gates, but they are like completely undistinguishable to the actual fence :D
14:12:32  <planetmaker> :D
14:12:36  <planetmaker> fair enough :P
14:12:50  <planetmaker> make a chain on one end of the segment, then it's a distinguishable gate
14:12:52  <V453000> but yeah, good details to add
14:13:28  <planetmaker> and maybe some small scrubs / bushes growing through fences
14:13:36  <planetmaker> one of them could even chew on it
14:14:24  <Eddi|zuHause> man, this british set was just (re)started, and they are on the brink of collapsing again over the discussion whether to reuse old sprites or start from scratch?
14:14:27  <V453000> yeah, modelling plants is a bit of an issue though :P
14:15:07  <Eddi|zuHause> yeti plants?
14:15:13  <V453000> any plants :)
14:15:38  <Eddi|zuHause> if there's "elephant grass", why shouldn't there be "yeti grass"?
14:15:49  <V453000> valid point

15:09:05  <planetmaker> V453000, yes, they will. But still, the with those in the name, the beauty of the graphics is not matched by the names
15:09:15  <V453000> :)
15:09:24  <planetmaker> you don't name your trains like "01D slug" either
15:09:28  <V453000> -> I add the numbers into graphics? :P
15:09:31  <V453000> well I could! :D
15:09:46  <planetmaker> the graphics are distinct enough that you don't need them
15:10:09  <planetmaker> really, how difficult is it to distinguish default industries? And you don't have more

15:28:08  <Alberth> being a farmer must be a dangerous profession in yeti land :)
15:29:00  <Alberth> spikey horns, upside-down pigcows
15:38:22  <V453000> :)
15:39:56  <V453000> Alberth: pm also mentioned the gate, yeah :P
15:40:55  <Alberth> I had the idea that you could make a few more yellow boards with the yeti home, with other words, like "sleep", "eat", "kill", and stack them vertically against the igloo
15:41:56  <Alberth> hmm, the "food" board could have different words too I guess
15:42:18  <Alberth> .-1,. s/board/sign/g
15:45:09  <Alberth> but like Sealbhach says, who cares about transport, with such graphics to drool at :D
15:50:14  <V453000> :)
15:54:01  <V453000> still, details are important even in "omg so small amount of pixels". Even if you do not know what the detail is, it creates a lot more natural atmosphere
15:54:11  <V453000> big part of why zbase is so "dead"
15:54:22  <V453000> and not in development, but in the way it looks :P
15:55:03  <V453000> anyway, I got to go :) njoy

16:46:39  <shirish> Eddi|zuHause: the openttd forums registeration
16:47:42  <shirish> Eddi|zuHause: I meant this page http://www.tt-forums.net/ucp.php?mode=register

16:48:23  <shirish> Eddi|zuHause: seems the fora never made the change from transport tycoon to openttd (in naming).
16:48:47  <Eddi|zuHause> shirish: the forum is shared with other games like ttdpatch and locomotion
16:49:10  <Eddi|zuHause> so the accounts are separate from the bugtracker/bananas/etc. accounts
16:49:21  <Eddi|zuHause> orudge is responsible for the forum
16:49:51  <shirish> Eddi|zuHause: thank you :) , calling orudge
16:50:17  <Eddi|zuHause> anyway, planetmaker removed this file from the nml repo
16:50:28  <Eddi|zuHause> the link should be changed to point to the wiki
16:50:34  <shirish> orudge: whenever you are online, could you pm me, I could give my mail details and you could remove my mail id from the spam filter so I can register.
16:51:01  <Eddi|zuHause> i don't know where else the file could be
16:51:15  <Alberth> shirish:  http://paste.openttdcoop.org/show/3509/
16:52:16  <Alberth> ^^ the file
16:52:27  <Alberth> no idea where that file moved to :(
16:53:37  <Rubidium> https://dev.openttdcoop.org/projects/nml/repository/revisions/1712
16:53:38  <Eddi|zuHause> well, a dirty workaround would be changing above link from "tip" to the old revision before this removal
16:53:54  <Rubidium> ^ there it went...
16:55:00  <Alberth> yeah, I noticed the hex number as being a revision after a few minutes :)
16:56:08  <Alberth> It seems like useful information to distribute with the compiler, imo
16:58:12  <Eddi|zuHause> well, i could have also written the "short revision", but i'm not sure anymore when my local sequence diverged from the official one
17:00:16  <shirish> Eddi|zuHause: what does the above discussion, does it mean that the gimp pallette shared is no longer correct or not being maintained or what ?
17:00:33  <shirish> Eddi|zuHause: I am 'newbie' hence asking.
17:01:30  <Eddi|zuHause> shirish: the file is still correct. nothing has changed in the palette in 20 years. it has been removed from that particular repo because someone decided it doesn't belong there
17:02:16  <shirish> Eddi|zuHause: ohk. thanx for clearing that up.
17:03:14  <shirish> this NEWGRF is a recent phenomenon or an old thing ? Can anybody share when this came up ?
17:03:30  <Eddi|zuHause> about 10 years ago
17:04:47  <Eddi|zuHause> people had been changing the original graphics by modifying the files directly, and at some point someone decided there should be a mod format. then it has been extended over time to cover more features
17:05:16  <Eddi|zuHause> like changing stats of vehicles, adding new industry types, ...
17:10:40  <shirish> Eddi|zuHause: ohk, thanx.

17:29:57  <Eddi|zuHause> the "Gabel|stapler" has a Gabel in front of it, and it is used to "stapeln" (hence the name). and they branded it "Stapel|gabel", which nobody would actually call it in every day language
17:30:38  <Eddi|zuHause> "Gabel"->fork, "Stapel"->stack
17:31:16  <Rubidium> so it's just a brand name

17:32:02  <shirish> Eddi|zuHause: would it be correct to label the graphics in openttd as '8-bit graphics' or no ?

17:32:54  <shirish> Eddi|zuHause: I am planning to do small blog post about openttd in the nearish future (for some reason people don't know about it.)
17:33:03  <shirish> or many people don't know about it.
17:33:04  <Eddi|zuHause> shirish: there has been a movement towards 32-bit, but it's not caught on very far yet
17:33:15  <shirish> Eddi|zuHause: link please.
17:33:41  <Eddi|zuHause> i don't have links
17:33:54  <Eddi|zuHause> there is a subsection in the forum
17:34:08  <Rubidium> in the in game content download thing, search for zbase, download it. Then go to the game options and select zbase as base graphics set
17:35:20  <Rubidium> bear in mind that 32 bits zbase is about 100 times larger than 8 bits opengfx (resp. 273 vs 3 MiB)
17:36:19  <shirish> ohk, thanx all.
17:39:09  <shirish> umm... does anybody know if has anybody made any youtube videos or anything with the new 32-bit graphics ?
17:39:27  <Eddi|zuHause> no idea
17:39:49  <Rubidium> no doubt searching youtube will give you an answer
17:39:57  <Rubidium> try things like openttd 32bpp or so
17:40:30  <Rubidium> or openttd zbase
17:41:24  <shirish> Rubidium: wow, thanx the first link itself gave lot of hits, going to watch some :)

22:19:23  <MTsPony> it seems to work just fine on windows, same client.

22:41:26  <MTsPony> --enable-threads yeah?
22:41:27  <MTsPony> yeah.
22:42:20  <MTsPony> it was a bit vague tho, ./configure showed only the option --without-threads, but i figured i tried --enable-threads and it didnt say it was an invalid command, so yeah, still same story though.
22:44:09  <glx> it's --with-threads
22:44:42  <MTsPony> sorry, with-threads.
22:44:54  <MTsPony> its kinda late here, i know configure would say invalid command i did it wrong :p
22:45:42  <MTsPony> in either case, it would be weird if on windows compile it would be on, and on linux it would be off by default? i never had to configure anything for that in Visual studio 2010
22:46:02  <MTsPony> anyway its on. and i configured with --with-threads
22:46:06  <MTsPony> so im beat :/
22:46:35  <MTsPony> i do use the intel compiler though, i dont assume that it screws with the configure parameters as --enable-dedicated works fine too lol
22:46:55  <Eddi|zuHause> you didn't answer the second question
22:47:12  <MTsPony> what do you mean with a progress report?
22:47:20  <Eddi|zuHause> a progress bar
22:47:28  <Eddi|zuHause> "x of y done"
22:47:39  <MTsPony> you mean in the linux terminal?
22:47:44  <Eddi|zuHause> no in the window
22:47:55  <Eddi|zuHause> like "scanning newgrfs" or "generating map"
22:48:00  <MTsPony> oh yeah, client wise i do.
22:48:08  <MTsPony> but this is about server side autosaves.
22:48:11  <MTsPony> on linux
22:48:24  <Eddi|zuHause> can you start the client on linux?
22:48:36  <MTsPony> yeah? just no video cuz i did --enable-dedicated
22:48:56  <Eddi|zuHause> that does probably not help
22:49:31  <MTsPony> well i can just recompile it with SDL or something, how would that solve the save/threading issue tho?
22:50:41  <glx> try -d sl1
22:52:10  <MTsPony> i see some output
22:52:32  <glx> if (_network_server || !_settings_client.gui.threaded_saves) threaded = false;

23:11:38  <DorpsGek> glx: Commit by Darkvater :: r2391 /trunk (7 files in 2 dirs) (2005-06-01 23:08:33 UTC)
23:11:39  <DorpsGek> glx: - Feature: saving games happen in a seperate thread so you no longer will have to wait such a long time (especially handy on bigger maps and multiplayer games). The mouse also changes into the 'ZZZ' state :P. The thread on windows is currently given a little-bit-less-than-normal priority so it should not interfere that much with the gameplay; it will take a bit longer though. Upon the exit of the game (1 more message)
23:11:40  <DorpsGek> glx: - Fix: fixed GetSavegameFormat() so that it takes the best compressor (highest), or a forced one added with the parameter
23:11:41  <DorpsGek> glx: - Open issues:
23:11:42  <DorpsGek> glx: 1. Don't attempt to load a game while saving is in progress, it will kick you back to the intro-screen with only the vast ocean to look at.
23:11:43  <DorpsGek> glx: (...)
23:11:52  <glx> 2. The server is disabled from threaded-saving, but might be enabled in the future.
23:11:52  <glx> 3. Current implementation only allows 1 additional running thread.
23:11:52  <glx> 4. Stupid global variables.....grrr
23:11:52  <glx> Big thanks for TrueLight and the amazing memorypool :D
23:12:29  <glx> the reason is it probably was too dangerous at that time :)
23:12:50  <glx> and nobody looked at it since then
23:13:24  <MTsPony> oh.. lol
23:13:32  <MTsPony> any dirty fix to enable it?
23:16:07  <glx> the dirty fix is remove "_network_server || " on src/saveload.cpp:2827
23:16:27  <glx> but I can't guarantee it will not cause problems
23:16:35  <MTsPony> what were the problems it was causing anyway?
23:16:59  <glx> we had many global variables at that time
