Kind of small to read, though.

i thought the same thing krtaylor, but its a bit different in ttd res, and, im not using them to drive anyway... all of them show the color except the ones facing directly away form the screen. i havnt had any probs seeing them yet, or finding out why my trains are stopping at them.

norfolksouthern, when you've finished these roads, would you like them to be distributed with the US Set. I don't mean integrated, just made (in a separate GRF) to be part of the "official" US Set release (for the total "US" TTD experience :wink:). See my last post in the Development Thread if you're not sure what I mean.

I was looking at a number of your pictures and I was wondering where you get the cool RR signals. The signle light train signal, I would really like to get it. :wink:

The US set team is working on a new set of signals that'll be part of the US set when they are finished.

The colors are wrong though.

Yellow is always used as 1 or 2 solid lines which always indicate you can't u-turn or go into that lane.

White means you can u-turn and go into that lane for a second or so.

Besides, white is MUCH easier on the eyes.

Yellow is accurate.

There are a few more things it needs, such as white stop-lines at the intersections and crosswalks in the city, but it's coming along.

I'm sure norfolksouthern will finish it as soon as he gets back.

Everything looks extremlly accurate to me I espically like the passing (broken yellow) lanes on the correct side on the hills. inter sections are accurate too because in rual areas there are no white lines across the intercetcions. and of course since there is no semi rual areas, the cross walk takes the place of the white lines across the road where the white line (stop on white line thingy) would be. Presonally I like the walks better.

At the moment Im using the traffic set, and your copy of the bridges. so my question is this pack once completed going to include your new new bridges? Tunnels are still traffic set but you already said your going to redo those, so Im guessing once the bridge project is finished we can expect to see some awsome tunnels too and thats sweet :). and about the RR crossings, the roads would probably have to be the same style as those shown or it would look funny, so inorder to use those wed have to have the same road pack as the signals wouldn't we?

I think like everyone else I'm just itching to get it installed. like your the owner of a candy store and were a bunch of hungry kids heh. anyhow, its excellent work and I love it.

It looks like the US roads are really almost finished, and I'd like to get them included in the US distribution as soon as possible. As a separate GRF file, of course, just as the stations are, so people can use them as they prefer.

Ok, I am going to dig up an old thread once again... :)

The US Roadset doesn't have bus and truck stations with the proper road texture.

Should I just redraw the road or do a complete makeover of the stations to make them look more "US"-ish?
