New Railway graphics

Post by RSpeed tycoonfreak »

This is a preview of my first new railway. :)
It's just a railway with concrete beneath it.
In a place with a lot of big towns it looks nice, but I need to do lot of improvements before I release it.

Hmm.... looks quite unreal to me, TBH. I never saw such thing IRL.

It may be good in towns, but outside of towns will look unrealistic. Maybe it will be useful as station platforms?

I made some improvements :)
-The diagonal tracks have only half of the square with concrete now.
-It works with junctions too now.
-It works with montains too now.

I only have to make some improvements with the depots only two have concrete.
Im sure i can fix that too, i think is has something to do with the directions

There's something wrong with the -- tiles, still. They don't fully align.

I hope I'm not too harsh but I only see fit for this when you use it for urban tram tracks. No rail company ever tiled his tracks.

Yeah, it looks just like the concrete you see when you a fountain/statue is being built.

There's something strange with the railway points (or switches or whatever they're called)

I agree. I have only noticed that when you mentioned it.

All trains will derail at these switches :roll: Is it intentional :?:
Edit: Just noticed, that shading is not correct too.. tiles on the sunny side of the mountain have the same colours as the shady tiles.... :shock: I want this concrete! if all roads will be built form this material, a road can be seen without headlights!!!
