GRAPHICS: Railroads

Bonaparte · December 5, 2003, 02:07

This is my version of the "industrial sprawl". It took me a long time to make it and I am always making little changes, but so far this is my best modification of this graphic.

This isn't for those who want a real clean map, but it does look really cool ... at least I think so. I use different resource graphics and mines etc. so that they are much more easily seen when I use these railroad graphics, but those items will be subject to another thread one day.

I wanted to show you a picture, but I don't know how to get the image from the game onto my desktop so that I could upload it here. If someone wants to tell me how that would be nice.

Oh, and why can't I post this in the Civ Files section?

Anyways, enjoy.

Get Irfanview or HoverSnap. They are free and you can capture the full screen. Resize to 800 and post it here.

OK downloaded HoverSnap and have a 800w x 460h pixel size picture that isn't the greatest but should be good enough.

I clicked the "IMG" box to insert image into this reply but got a box that says ...

So what's this all about?

OK..I see
Anyways, wanna tell me how to put up a screenshot?

The resize to 800 was the resoultion. At 800 res and jpeg you will be clear as a bell and fit here. At least with Irfanview and Hypersnap. I have Hoover, but have not tried it.

Anyway if you use the "post reply" button you will see just below the window that type into, you will see the broswe button.
Select it and point to the file.

OK, I'll give it a shot.

Great! It worked! Thanks.

I am currently working on city graphics that will match these railroad graphics...almost done, but not yet. Was going to upload them when I was done, but see little point in it now since my railroad graphics were only downloaded a lousey 11 times...guess most people like an uncluttered map. Oh well.

It may have as much to do with them not wanting to download something to see what it looked like. Now they can see and decide, so give it more time.

Yeah, what the heck, I just finished the city graphics so I just uploaded them also.
