Title: The R160 Alstom for OpenBVE
Post by: error46146 on March 17, 2011, 05:05:17 pm
As many of you know, I am updating the R160 Alstom for OpenBVE.

As stated in the other post, I am currently working on new side signs for the exterior view.

I have a question for you guys: What do you think is a good font that I can use to accurately simulate the side exterior signs of the R160?

I've tried using the Luminator bus fonts from RTS CNG Command on NYCTF, but they don't really look like the R160 letters...

Any ideas?

For the side signs, I would recommend using the actual R160 side signs themselves from pictures.

Great news! By the way error, I have a exterior texture for you.

And by the way, will you fix the motor sounds? You left out an extra drop and you should speed up the motor sound noises a bit.

Try another LED font, it isn't always that complicated to replicate stuff

http://fontman1982.angelfire.com/index.html (http://fontman1982.angelfire.com/index.html)  try using those, i recommend using the 214/216 MBTA Route display sign (scroll down a little bit) right click it/save link as.../(C:)/Windows/Fonts or click the download below to make it easier lol

Believe me. We noticed lol. That's a detail JayJay forgot to add to the exterior. Not a big deal though, it's nothing that can't be done.

Hey error, will these signs be put onto the next version of the R160A Alstom as an animated object like the 38?

I'm not going to answer for him, but if he does, it won't be animated. Openbve won't allow animated files to be re-animated

I'm covering the animation for this project. The signs are animated already. But it is one (A) sign then one (B) sign so on.... The new graphics need to be implemented for the side interior, exterior and the front signs.

That sounds really good.I'm sure someone or some people stated that the notes need to be faster once accelerating.
Title: Re: The R160 Alstom for OpenBVE
Post by: Smooth23 on November 03, 2011, 03:54:13 pm
Yeah I said it should be much faster it sounds like makes the sound about 4 times before it stops sound and you just hear the trucks against the tracks
