Hello everyone! I'm dutch and my German is not that great, but my English is way better. That's why I'll write my posts in two languages.
Hallo jeder! Ich bin ein Niederländer und mein Deutsch ist nicht so gut, aber mein Englisch ist viel besser. Darum soll ich mein posts in zwei Sprachen schreiben.

Because I don't know where exactly to put this modding thread, I just place it here. I mainly work on the roads related items (signage, road markings), which can be considered as map related items. If I can figure out how to make new cities and play custom maps, I'll work on that too. I know for sure there are tutorials on that subject. I'd also like to try out the Zmodeler (I have quite some experience with 3D Studio Max), but I can't import reference models with my unregistered version...
Weil ich nicht weiß wo ich diesem thread posten müss, habe ich es hier geplatzt. Ich arbeite hauptsachlich auf die Straßen, der können wie map-bezogenen Elementen erschaut wurden. Wenn ich herausfinden kann, wie man neue Städte machen kann, und eigene Karten spielen kann, werde ich auch auf das zu arbeiten. Ich wieß sicher das es Tutorials gibt über diesen sachen. Auch möchte ich versuchen die Zmodeler ausprobieren (Ich hab viel Erfahrung mit 3D Studio Max), aber ich kann kein Referentionsmodelle importieren mit die unregistriete Version...

Fortunatly, I can do some texture modding already with the GIMP. I have created two mods, both WIP:
- a Signage mod, which replaces the sign prints with ones in the correct fonts. Already finished: the Netherlands, Belgium, Poland and Luxembourg. I have to work on the German, Swiss and Austrian signage.
- a Road marking mod, that makes the dotted lines shorter. My plan is to make extra models for typical markings for some countries, like different arrow painting styles or the dutch DV-marking.

Zum Glück habe ich etwas getan mit Texturenmodding mit der GIMP. Ich habe zwei mods gemacht, beide mods sind WIP:
- ein Schilder-mod, der die korrekten Schriftarten platzt auf die Navigationsschilder. Jetzt komplett: die Niederlande, Belgien, Polen und Luxemburg. Ich werde schon noch arbeiten auf der Deutsche, Schweizen und Östenreichischen varianten
- ein Straßenmarkeringsmod, der die streifen kürzer macht. Mein Plan ist um extra modellen zu machen für karakteristiken Straßenmarkieringen, wie andere Pfeilenstillen und die Hollandische DV-markierung.

so basically new fonts on road signs? nice work

Hello again everyone!

So, I have finished my mod. The following has been done:
- Germany, the Netherlands, Belgium, Austria have recieved re-styled routeshields, arrows and sign fonts
- Luxembourg, Poland and the Czech Republic has recieved re-styled routeshields and sign fonts
- Switzerland has recieved re-styled routeshields and arrows
- The UK, France and Italy were already looking good. No changes made...

Some more screenshots:


I also corrected some of the writings:
- "IJmulden" has been changed to "IJmuiden"
- "Gröningen" in the Netherlands has been changed to "Groningen". In Germany this is unchanged
- There was a second entry for Stettin in Germany. This should've been "(Szczecin)"
- Some of the Austrain destinations lose their green background, because this color is used for another purpose on Austrian signage.

For those who are interested, the following fonts were used:
- The Netherlands: Highway Gothic Series E
- Germany, Czech Republic: DIN1451
- Austria: DIN1451 Austria
- Belgium: SNV
- Luxembourg: Arial / Helvectia
- Poland: Drogowskaz
- (Switzerland: Frutinger / CarthoGothicStd)

It will be online in the download section shortly

Have fun!

Best,

Sorry, but a terribly useless map edit.

@thulyn: this is indeed no map edit, but more a map editor mod (new fonts for road signs). mandelsoft just placed it here because it had to do something with the map itself.

Indeed. This is no truck skin nor a map, that's the hard thing of this and I didn't know exactly where to place it. Because it has mostly to do with the maps, I posted it here...

Sorry for the double post, but the Sign Mod has been updated to cover the new TSM map too. Make sure it loads last by adding "Z_" to the ZIP filename.

Have fun!
