HRS (Highway Re-Styling) Project

It shows up yellow on mine too. Between the yellow line, and vanilla cement, the color has to compress for the region shot some how.

Thanks j-dub, that was the confirmation I was looking for.

yes there is, go into the reader and open the asphalt texture file, then copy the texture from it. then open the main file, and replace the texture in there with the one from the asphalt texture file.

So copy the asphalt texture and paste it to the main file?
Let see what happens

[dragonshardz]

yep exactly but i would recommend making a backup copy of the files just in case.

[Fresh Prince of SC4D]

YES ! It works! They look great! Thank you !



Sorry this is it:

that's great to know! 

but your picture is broken. 

[Fresh Prince of SC4D]

The asphalt looks sweet but why do I have the barriers? Is there a way to fix this too?

[nerdly_dood]

It's because in order to have the HRS with extended shoulders and no barriers you have to have the standard concrete HRS mod AND the asphalt texture file - notice the major difference in the file size.

[Fatsuhono]

Of course, I am totally in-love with your modds!

[metarvo]

This is a great idea, Maarten.  A variety of highway styles makes for more realistic building choices.

Wait a minute.  I didn't just see an HRS Highway and a Maxis Highway in the same pic, did I?

[nerdly_dood]

No - the picture that the Fresh Prince linked to shows a RHW-4 with Shadow Assassin's Euro texture mod with a transition to Maxis highway with a not-quite-right HRS texture applied.

THE HRS IS STILL ALIVE!!

I'm working on it lately and I've just released the complete asphalt texture set. The complete concrete set will come at the next version of the HRS which is closer than you think...

Progress...


Best,
Maarten.

very nice work Maarten 

[toxicpiano]

yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaayyyyyyy

[deathtopumpkins]

Maarten, you just read my mind! I was building a stack interchange just last night and noticed the lack of HRS textures!

Glad you're still finding time to work on this!

[nerdly_dood]

WOW. This latest HRS texture set is AMAZING - you didn't miss a thing! There are a few things I need to check out, though, before I am sure that this is entirely perfect... (such as the models in particular) but even if they aren't quite right I can still use the original Maxis model set like I have been for the past several hours.

One minor thing that I don't really care that much about is that the textures seem too dark, but that is probably because I have them working with the Maxis cement barriers... Even then i hardly care, though - it's an excellent mod.

One question: Will the updated models be included with the concrete version? I'd like to experiment with a lack of edge barriers...

[MandelSoft]

@N_D: Yeah, I planned to release them together with v0.3, so you'll have updated models and a full concrete texture set.

EDIT: Third FIRST place in ST Best of the Week!

[MandelSoft]

Sorry for double posting, but the new HRS Mod is out! (v 0.3)

[Fresh Prince of SC4D]

i know but i can't download it , is the STEX down?

[dragonshardz]

This is strange, mrtnrln: ALL of your files on the STEX lead to a blank page with just the blue background and nothing else.
