UK Screenshots (Hi Res Version)

A completed reskin in the forground and a WIP one in the background, these two locos are both preserved and I'll leave it up to you to guess where.

I am very pleased with the complete reskin, the only problem with it is that I cannot have the true number D5518 without the headcode boxes disapeering, so I usually put in D5581 but is there a way to remidy this so D5518 can be selected with headcodes?

I still don't get it, WEN. The train bodies look great, the route looks great, but the texturing on the 142 patently isn't finished, so why put them in the hi-res section?

Best Wishes,

I am doing that to wind you up! :P

Why start a work in progress thread, when really, there are a couple of shots to be uploaded? For me, 2 posts with WIP posts is just not worth it, it could go in the UK section, since everything around it is UK (Ok, ok, German Caternary, UK stock and an american layout isn't exactly a UK thing!). Besides, many authors do post some shots of WIP work here.


As for hi-res? You may want to check the meaning, it means high resolution. As in those that break the normal CoC rules, 800x600 with no warning, or upto 1600x1200 if you do put a warning for 56k users in the thread title.


"18. Posting of images, signature banners and avatars are subject to the Appropriate Content Guidelines and the following conditions:

  • Screen shots posted to the Trainz Community Discussion Forums should be in .jpg format and not exceed a maximum resolution of 800x600 pixels*. Any screen shots that exceed this limit will be modified to links or removed from the post altogether.

    *The only exception to this is within the Screenshot forum. Screen shots posted to the Screenshot forum should be in .jpg format and not exceed a maximum resolution of 1600x1200 pixels, however, if your screen shot exceeds 800x600 you are required to include the maximum resolution used in the title of the thread.
"
Now, with a wide diverse of users contibuting, you CANNOT warn everyone that there are 1024x768 shots, or upto the maximun, so putting in high res is a good warning for those using snial-up.
 
WEN, let me try to explain what I mean. Let's assume that you are kindly intending to release these 142's to the DLS eventually, then why not post them in the freeware announcements section? Lots of people post WIP pics there to give people a taster of what is to come (or to make their mouths water!)

I still think this is the wrong place to post pics that are unfinished. After all, posting pics of unfinished routes is frowned upon, isn't it?

Anyway best wishes and,

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!

Look above your post, look at most of my posts, has anyone frowned upon them? Has anyone commented? They may do in private, but not in public. Until more and more people say "WEN, Please refrain from posting unfinished items here", then I think my screenshots are well suited for this place.

I'm sorry, but all you've done there is changed the number and nameplate on my reskin of 47805 (which is the same livery). You haven't altered it enough to call it your own reskin - the rules clearly state that if a piece of content or a reskin is used as a base for another piece of content or reskin, then it must be altered by at least 60%, but simply changing the nameplate and number and then calling it your own reskin is just plain rude I'm afraid. Also, where did the permission come from to alter one of my reskins and then post a screenshot of it on a public forum? You haven't even credited me for the 95% of the reskin that you've used of mine. In future, please contact me in advance for permission, and also make sure you've altered the reskin enough to call it your own (i.e not just a very slight edit, as you've done). It's new year's eve, so I'm willing to let this one go, provided that you alter it more. You're not the first person to do this though.

A happy new year to everyone by the way :)

This will be the last shot of 2007, now lets reflect on something that I released this year, a first for a long time!

Sorry 46035, but I have to say something about this, I know that you said that you would let it go as its new year but I should like to pick up on the highligted parts of your post.

As far as permission goes, I can understand if Tl Blade had said that he intended to release the reskin, but no where in his post does it suggest that he wants to. He is using it for personal use and I don't see what harm can come of posting on a forum, which I would hardley call public seeing as you need a username and password to enter it.

And with what he has done for reskinning, he has reskinned it, when I was researching how to do it I never came across these golden rules that say you have to alter the paint job by at least 60%, I personally class a reskin as any noticeable cange to the current paint job. The work in progress 31 I posted a picture uses cjburgess's construstion 31 as a base with only 2 changes, sector and a name.

and WEN keep those WIP shots coming I personally enjoy seeing them.

and now my first screen of the year

Precisely........changing a nameplate and number isn't noticable.....in fact, his "reskin" of 47843 looks exactly the same as mine from that distance! Thanks for raising your points and making a good contribution to the discussion, but I'm certain that there are rules in place, as I remember reading them a while ago (although, I can't remember where.....think it may have been on UK Trainz). If it's a personal reskin, then that's fine, it's just that the way he worded it sounded to me like he was planning on releasing them. I won't go off topic by discussing this any further, but I think a fair way around this is to insert my own license into the configs of my reskins, stating that reskins using my textures that are intended to be released, will need prior approval from myself.

All the best,
Ben aka 46035 :cool:

ok, I didn't mean to sound harsh, if i did, I am sure he will contact you if he does wish to release anything :), HAPPY NEW YEAR ALL

I have an idea for a new years resolution for this forum, less arguments and nit picking and we may get close to the old forums freindlyness again, the thought had just occured to me :wave:
