what? no potholes? lol

Ok,I looked but cannot find any on the workshop

Okay then, thanks for the reply

No there are none in the collection, but thee are plenty on the workshop.

This is great mate, a big thank you from me. Is there any parking space decals for the roads? I'm sure I can make some but decals are just easier xD

@Damzen the national road you have found must be Madgemade`s texture as I removed all markings at junctions when I did the textures. Hope you manage to make the changes.

@mz thanks mz for the reply appreciate it. :-) Yeah the national road is modded as it has dashed lines, but maybe that was from the original UK road mod. Thanks for your reply, i will keep experimenting.

@Damzen I dont know, when I did the textures I altered all the files in the original mod (UK Roads by Madgemade) texture folders and didn`t take any notice of which texture went with each road. I am not sure if the national road ( I assume this is the one you are wanting to change) was available when I did the re-texture.
All I can suggest is download the latest UK Roads mod (548703719) and open the textures to find the texture your are looking for.

@mz what is the two-way highway (2 lanes) texture name? I can't seem to find it. As i want to add large lines for UK national speed limit roads.

Another mod that crashed my new game!

The alleys are okay in my game - maybe a theme or mod is affecting the alleys?

The alley is showing up as bright white. Any ideas why?

Replace the original Tam & Vanilla folders (548703719) with the ones from this download - this will replace the original mods road textures. Once you have done this unsubscribe from this version or delete the UKRoads.dll in folder 706055509 - this will prevent a conflict with the original mod, which is required.

Please note roads added to the game after this workshop item was published will not be altered and I do not intend to update them as there are other ways now to acheive the same thing such as the Plopable Asphalt mod.

So which folder do we copy TAM & Vanilla from and which folder do we delete UKRoads.dll?

Them files show in Steam\steamapps\workshop\content\255710\548703719 & Steam\steamapps\workshop\content\255710\706055509

Nevermind. Found the ID

706055509

Eh? how do I open the folder for the mod. I can find the original UK textures because you told me them but what is the directory for this mod?!

Texture "truck only" please

for some unknown reason conteted colosel frame work with this mod ive used all mods since last updates thanks please fix

@jakeroot mz is right the road arrows are automatically added to the game as decals. This behavior could be stopped by changing the decal. I plan to make this a feture of a "Historic Roads" mod that I have been planing for a while.

@mz thank you for the timely reply. I feared that may be the case. Glad I know what's up now.

The arrows are not contained within the texture, As far as I know the arrows are decals that are added automatically by the game. There will be a way to prevent them from drawing but I have no idea how to - sorry I could not be of more help.

Odd request. Could you toss a little how-to guide to me, demonstrating how I could edit the textures to remove the arrows from the texture? I know most people like the arrows, but I prefer to place my own using the "UK Road Props" set. I don't mind editing the textures but I don't have any idea how to do so.

Thanks to the speedy fix from Madgemade, the re-texture is working again.

is this back working now

I know, but there is nothing I can do as it relies on the original mod "UK Roads" by Madgemade which was broken with the recent disasters update.

This mod isn't working with natural disasters as uk roads mod is broken.

**SOLVED ** - Can't place props on roads?

@Mz thanks MZ, i found it wasn't that... i needed Prop Anachy mod. Anyone else who is experiencing this make sure you have Prop Anachy installed to add the UK props to the roads =)

@Damzen - try switching PLT Anarchy on in the options Tab of the settings for the Prop LIne Mod, this should allow you to place a line of props even if there are collisions.

thanks @Mz, but it isn't the textures or your mod, just general - how do i get your "prop" to apply over the road? The red is the "Not Valid" highlighr you get when you try to place a prop over an existing prop/road/object. Do i have to get another mod. I have anachy, but it isn't allowing me to place your props over the road? Not sure if i need anything else to get it working?

@Damzen, the only change I made was graphically to the textures, so I don`t think they can affect the game - try UK roads mod with the original textures and see if there is a difference. I have re-installed the game in the last few days and have had problems getting all my usual mods to work together - maybe there has been a game update that is messing with things or just a coincidence. Let me know how you get on.

@mz, ok so today i cant seem to add the line props to the roads. It keeps highlighting red indcating collision? I swear i did this before though? Or am i doing this wrong- is it for the plain roads only?

I have been working on crossing zig-zags, but it is tricky to match the underlying road texture to cover the median line with the central zig-zag - will post to workshop once I sort it. The school markings should be straight forward as they are only at the kerbside - will do them sometime next week.

Please could you create: zig-zags for crossings and schools, taxi rank box (modular), advanced stop box.

Brilliant - it`s so annoying when creating a UK themed map, only to have large red fire hydrants appear along the road.

@mz yes you could remove all of that stuff and I plan to redo a lot of it eventually for the uk road mod, for example I will be removing the fire hydrent random infomation sign and replacing the parking meter with uk version etc.

Do the autoplaced roadsigns use the same code as the road side vanila props (hydrants, boxes etc. )- if so is it possible to remove the roadsode clutter that was shipped with the vanila game?

@mz while technically possible that would be very complex and would involve a lot of modifications to every road type it applied to. At the moment I am addign new roadsigns then I will be looking at getting bus stop text to come up and other writing in the road as this isn't as bad to code as node and segment stuff.

That would be great - you thinking of something like dropdown`s where you can select the node junction texture, kerb lines etc. for a particular road?

BTW good work on the props, there is in fact a way to code them into the game to be added automatically, this is something I am working on and would mean that some props could just spawn be themselfs.

AWesome mod! Well done!! I was saying to the UK Roads author to create some longer lines but he wouldn't. This is a great addition to the existing mod! Now we can customise the roads as we see fit. LOVE IT 10/10.

Good idea about the lettering, will do them when I have time.

Ick, I'm having issues again and I don't even know what changed. No matter though, because I thought of an idea and I've asked in the Paradox forums for someone to make a mod that simply makes the zebra crossings invisible - it'll do what I want visually, and be a lot lighter RAM-wise than the whole texture mod :)

Also I want to make a suggestion, if I may! Instead of releasing stancils for road names, why not just do A, B, M, and 0 through 9? That way we can make our own route numbers :P

Also, could you release the double-dash give way markings as one single = mark, for adding to curved junctions? That would be awesome!

Sorry, I'm crap when it comes to making mods myself. I code like a blinded hamster :D

Now that you have the UK Roads mod working it should work if you replace the textures in that mods folder with the textures I uploaded - make sure you don`t activate my download in the content manager (as it is not a mod) and restart the game so that the new textures can be loaded.

Yeah, once I worked out that Network Skins was causing the core UK Roads mod to go a bit bananas by itself. Tried refreshing the mod list too by unsubscribing, deleting the content folders in the Workshop folder, and then resubscribing to get new versions. :\

Before replacing the textures do the UK Roads mod textures work in game - the ones with yellow lines down the sides of the majority of the roads?

The prop graphics are great, unfortunately following your instructions results in a problem in the game; all base game roads are textured normally (with zebra crossings at junctions etc) but roads added by the NeXT mod are uniform plain grey with no texture. Did I do something wrong?

Tried on both MacOS and Windows, same problem :(

Personally, I won't be using this mod, but I will deffinatly make use of the props. nice work.
