cliff improvement

Post by Stampertie »

I have no idea how to give this topic the correct name, but well seems ok.

I have this question, is it possible to improve these ugly cliff walls (see picture) and make them look a bit like the 2nd picture?

I think NO becouse there's no cliff sprites for rails they are only boroued from howses and all that direction cliffs will look the same like a half of the depot hanging in the air or half of howse hanging in the air.the graphics would be crrapy.

it's a normal cliff overlayed with a bridge end

the same is with rails whent they're on the same slope and when the slopefix is not installed on old patch versions then you kan see that it is a normal slope in new patch it's included

example:

look at the end of the track it's the same but without slopefix

well currently ( as far as I know) there is one edge for roads and rails .. but if it could be divided then rails could use yours graphic ... we need to wait Dev Team reply or I will mail Marcin

would so improve the looks of these tracks

and ofc it would be so great if it was possible to lay tracks right beneath it, but I have no idea how (im)possible that is.

I forgot to add that it looks now as it looks because it is not possible to build on lower/second half of raised sloped square
