New Nam - New EuroTextures

You're the greatest

I doubt that the Euro Texture update will help; but it appears that other SFBT pieces may also require an update (albeit minor): since I installed the new NAM I am getting this weired effect around the diagonal filler pieces - which, again, no longer fill..

[Andreas]

Eh, do you have a daytime shot? I can hardly see anything. The filler lots are not affected by the NAM or the Euro Road Textures Mod, since those only change network textures, but not lots.

This is true, but if a transit network texture and a lot texture/overlay have the same ID, there can be a conflict. Yes, I know about the Group IDs being different, but the Instance IDs can still cause a conflict. I had this happen once when a lot texture and a vehicle skin had the same Instance ID. I ended up with the vehicle skin appearing on a lot because of this.

Attached a patch file to add euro texture to diagonal heavy rail over diagonal road piece added in the latest NAM. I was forgetting to create a texture for it. Simply copy a file to folder where other ERTM files are in.

Apart from that, I have tweaked road roundabout a little. If you are using non maxis sidewalk textures, you can easily get compatibility with them.


EDIT: Removed attached file, it has been merged into the ERTM update.

Sorry about the "night time shot", but I've meanwhile determined that it is actually the famed "Water Bug" that does these effects. It seems the filler pieces are partially transparent, because once it happens to a filler piece, other, similarily textured items show the same effect: the pipeline set, for example, and the tracks with the stationary rail cars, fall under the same spell.

hi all. the NAM and SFBT teams have done great work with these mods  i have a slight problem though (i'm sure there are others) where the old Euro Road Texture mod is not compatible with updates in the NAM.

the one i've noticed is where joining a diagonal street to a diagonal road. this has been revamped in the new NAM which i'm really pleased about. it now forms a true diagonal T-junction just like joining a diagonal road to another diagonal road. however, the texture on one part of the road at the diagonal T-junction appears as the default, instead of the Euro Texture.

is there an update planned for the Euro Road Texture Mod to fix this issue? (and fix any others that arise beacuse of updates in the NAM which the older Euro Road mod couldn't account for)

I have updated the SFBT Euro Road Textures mod along with the new NAM, but I might have missed that particular texture. Could you please post a pic of the problem?

@ebina: Thanks for the update as well. I will include the fixes in the next update.

@HandsOn: Yes, two or three of the diagonal fillers have transparent base textures, and those are affected by the infamous "water graphics bug". The rest of the lots should be fine, though.

i'm sorry Andreas  it seems i'd mistakenly downloaded a much older version of the mod from Simtropolis (2006 i think). i've installed the latest version now and the problem has been fixed sorry about the mistake. great work once again!

The new euro texture is very good 

[darraghf]

I know I'm reviving an old thread but since the new nam is out, I thought it would be alright. Will there be new textures for the new Nam

[Andreas]

Yes, there will be an update. I have created Euro textures most of the new items already, so I just need to check what's still missing, and compile another release.

[Sciurus]

Very nice roundabouts. But when will we can download this new texture?

[Andreas]

When it's ready, obviously.

[darraghf]

Great. I can't wait

[dedgren]

I've done, based on Andreas's kind inquiry, the Euro textures for the FAR to diagonal transition that is in the January '09 NAM.



They are attached to the bottom of this post.  Please let me know if I can be of any further assistance.

I've just uploaded an update of the SFBT Euro Road Textures Mod, which should cover all recent NAM additions, as well as some bugfixes.

Download Windows version

Download Mac version

What's new?

- Euro textures for the NAM Wide Radius Curves plugin
- Euro textures for the NAM Wide Radius Curves plugin with dashed lines for some curves (optional; please note that you still need the file mentioned above for the rest of the curves)
- Euro textures for sithlrd98's alternative Wide Radius Curve textures
- Euro textures for the NAM FLUPs plugin
- Euro textures for the NAM T-RAM plugin
- some updated textures in order to fix a few bugs and graphical glitches

Many thanks to chrisim and Schleicher68 for the FLUP and T-RAM Euro textures, to dedgren for the Wide Radius Curve textures, to sithlrd98 for the alterative WRC textures, to ebina for the bugfixes, and to everyone else that I might have missed.
