I like the texture of Fraangs new swamp terrain. Being no programmer, I apologize for all my suggestions that imply undue workload and for other misjudgements due to lack of expertise or relevant skills. ![]() ![]() |

Well, could one of you perhaps provide a picture of the current vs. the new version, please? Its hard to discuss something, if you cant see, what youre talking about. Two is the oddest prime. ![]() ![]() |

Here is screenshot of the new one: http://wl.widelands.org/forum/topic/672/?page=9#post-4990 At the moment I can't make a screenshot of the old one because I am not on my own machine. ![]() ![]() |

I do not have Fraang's source file with the new texture, so this is the old texture, but
Here is the swamp, as it currentl is, for comparison..... Edited: 2011-05-06, 17:26

hi. About the Swamp Texture: I made it mutch years ago primary as 'animated' texture witch looks more like a wet swamp. But 5-6 years ago widelands wasn't so sophisticated. but..uhm. Today I don't like the textures. *g I hoped there have today a higher resolution/use a bigger pattern. (actually is it only 16x16pix(?))
Thats was the reason why the water looks so....ugly. PS: Excuse my bad english. Edited: 2011-05-08, 09:14

Sorry about the late post, but I am just now getting back up to speed. @ajasio: Thanks for your comments and your pioneering work! (And no apologies needed for your English! You don't want to see my German! :D) I like fraang's new texture, too, but I agree it could be "dirtier" (maybe more algae and green water). Doctor it up and then we'll see about animating it. I see little people. ![]() ![]() |

I was thinking of animation along the lines of a gentle undulation (waves). We don't want it too pronounced, though, and we don't want to produce another "synchronized swimming" or as you put it, "boiling" effect. No one said this would be easy... I see little people. ![]() ![]() |
