Factorio Forums

I am looking for someone to help me with some entity graphics for the mod I am working on, as I am not good at these!
A list of the needed graphics is as follows:

• Fractionating column (needs 2 input and 3 output pipes - like oil refinery)
  Refrigeration unit (1 input pipe, 1 output)
  Pressure vessel (3 input pipes, 1 output)
  Air extractor (1 output pipe)
  Large chemical plant (basically a chemical plant with 3 pipes on each side rather than 2)
  Fancy, space age-looking assembling machine
  Bullet train and matching carriage
  Maglev train and matching carriage

Make as many or as few as you want, no icons required, as I can manage those!
Any help will be amazing, no matter how small a contribution
I will update this topic if any are no longer needed.

Thanks,
Vulcan

You should post your planed sizes of these buildings, like 2x2 or 4x2 or something, because on that depends the graphic size.

I am not fussy about sizes, but as a guide-
Fractionating column 5x5
Refrigeration unit 3x1
Pressure vessel 3x3
Air extractor 2x2
Large chemical plant 3x3
Fancy, space age-looking assembling machine 3x3
Bullet train + carriage and Maglev train + carriage same as diesel locomotive (approx 320 pixels)

However, don't feel constrained by these sizes, I will be grateful for any help!

some size and i can handle this
a good question is always how space-age looking is enough

traditional pressure-vessel and lightly space-age assembling - for now without animations, but on/off

i think you would use the pressure-vessel as tank ? - if so, you need rotated version (no animation possible ingame), if not next time and animation easier.


geen should be on ... but in future and space how knows


you need to experiment to get the correctly position (shift) in game. (or do some math)

Those are perfect, thank you!
That is definitely very space age looking.
In answer to your question, the pressure vessel is an assembling machine for making stuff like diamonds, but it would make a very cool tank as well.

So you are thinking something like a hydraulic press then? Right?

Probably a highly pressurized inert Argon atmosphere, as I am including argon in the recipe for such items as diamond, but it could be to stop the carbon reacting with air as it is crushed by hydraulic rams - who knows, pick the explanation you like best!

ok, now i understand your idea/use of the pressure-vessel.

a little bit special air-extractor

i'am not sure for what you would use the refrigeration - maybe you would generate liquid-air, but a 3x1 image is hard to handle ingame. lucky for me, its now your problem - beside that not standard looking.


needs later screenshots from your mod to see is a picture-size correction necessary

looks bullet-train and maglev not equal ?

Nice job again!
As you guessed, the refrigeration unit is for creating liquid gases.
As for bullet train and maglev, they should look different, perhaps a different colour scheme and different nose shape would help with this?
Thanks again!

i have made a design for a Fractionating column, but i think is now way for you, to get this working in game ... so for now i stop adding more pipes and stuff ^^


maybe a strange space-age looking Fractionating column is the better solution.

@vulcan
have you post your mod or still working on it ?

Could i use this on my mod?

from my position - yes. (if no one used - it's wasted time)
whats why i asekd vulcan, if he don't need this gfx anymore, he can give it free.

This mod is obsolete.

so have what you want and so will I!

Sorry for the late reply, I have not checked the forums for a long time!
The mod is no longer being worked on, so you are free to use the graphics for whatever you want.
Thanks again to YuokiTani for his effort
