Is there a mod or a workaround for getting rid of that ugly red cobblestone texture underneath the road when using the rail under road.?

I dont think so, check the mods and downloads, and check in the STEX before posting something like this, because its probably there and people might get upset because you waste server space or something, just warning you, hope you find it!

    Of course I checked the STEX. I'm not that green.. LOL The powers that be wouldn't have to worry about wasted server space if they had a better search function by the way... Oh well, I'll keep hunting....

    Yeah I'm not quite sure why they decided not to change that texture, I personally think it looks awful. Just need to find the textures to change it... or are they all in a S3d model?

    I like that texture but I miss more variety of pieces, for example pieces without road (probably that's not possible) and shorter tunnel entrances.

    I'm guessing the reason they used a texture that stands out is so that it would be possible to see where you lay down the network. Still, I agree.. It doesen't exactly look great. Something more discreet would perhaps be better

    S3D models have "links" to FSH files and then the FSH file is UV mapped onto the model, no matter if it's a true 3D model or not, so a modd for this would only be a matter of changing FSH files, It would be possible to make more puzzle pieces with different textures, it would require making duplicates (with different IIDS) of the current ones just, the S3D file would link to a different texture. Possibley soemthing I could do after I have done everything with GHSR/EHSR, and possibley something else to do with monorail.

    Instead of complaining, count your stars how lucky you guys have the NAM team, forever changing how we design the games transit network. Also keep in mind that instead of complaining try taking up modding and create a mod to replace the default one. Atleast warrior may give it a shot.

    Simo out.

    GoaSkin, who made the underground rail puzzle pieces, used that red texture so he can spot those puzzle pieces in his cities. As warrior said, it isn't that hard to change the FSH files; actually, I did a mod myself where I changed the road textures to Euro roads and the red cobblestone to the standard white-ish medium wealth sidewalk textures. But don't ask me if and when it gets released - it's not finished yet, and at the moment, I don't have time to do any modding at all...

    Andreas: I have downloaded the Euro textures by Frimi when I got the new NAM and the textures on the puzzle pieces change to the Euro Textures except on the diagonal ones.

    But while I agree I don't particuarlly like the red textures, I think thta different textures should be made/used, so you can still see the difference.
