Freeway Sign Requests

you can request a freeway sign from me here.  i do not do overhang signs, joeynymets does those, besides i don't know how.  i do however make the large signs you would find on the side of a freeway.  like the one in the pictures below.  i can make these for you, all you have to do is give me the number of the road (i.e. US 40, I-64) or the name of the road in which the exit is, an exit number can also be used.

Examples

<ahttps://www.simtropolis.com/idealbb/files//ALT%20I-64OF.JPG align=baseline>
 
<ahttps://www.simtropolis.com/idealbb/files//To%20North%20Chesterfield.JPG align=baseline>
 
let me know what you want and i will be happy to make them for you.  i can also make more then one and then release them as a group.  if you want one i will need your e-mail address unless you want them released on the STEX.
Thanks

    nycsc4: thanks for including the gMax model in the zip - I already have the other ones by joeynymets, but it made modifying the signs to my liking alot easier.

    I'm quite happy with the result:

    Hello, theese signs look cool. Can you make me just like 5 basic exit signs, what i mean is just like a green sign with the arrow and number of the exits 1,2,3,4,5......if it isnt too much to ask, can you also make me a freways ends sign, the same exact thing as your second picture only with I-93..and U.S.-1..and also the same three signs that Qld_Matt asked for, but instead of it saying city, can it say Bostonia. Thank you very much. I am so bad on gmax plus i dont have the SC4 plugin anyway. Once again, thank you, i know it is alot of signs to make. myu email is asj90@aol.com

    thanks inuyasha fan, but the signs for magpieshooter are already done and have been released.  If you would like we can group together and make these signs together.  i will make some and you can make some, and then we can release them as packs let me know what you think, but when you reply please send me a PM, lets just keep this thread for requests.  also until the next request comes in all the signs have been completed, so keep an eye on this thread and if a new request comes in and you would like to do it, send me a PM and it is yours.  thanks a bunch!  and the model i have is the one off the stex the GHSDP one or something like that.

    ICFan:  i can make these for you but i will have to split these into a couple of different signs.  There is too much data for each sign.

    I've been doing some experiments with those signs, and came up with these (the colours have specific meanings:

    Red - Important info)
    Green - standard guide sign/info
    Blue - Public amenities
    Maroon - Rail.
    Brown - Tourist information sign (not shown)

    I'm also trying to work out a colour to use for toll roads.

    I've used the base texutre from PEG's current generation of random tree lots for the sake of continuity.

    Not sure whether I'll release these or not - there'd be no models included though, because I forgot to save some of them before rendering. I'm also planning on doing a Service centre sign with symbols.

    cammo2003:  great signs.  would you like to create a group (for lack of a better word) to create these signs?  i don't know how to do color or fonts, nor do i know how to import pictures.  i could handle the requests and make the models, and if the requesters would like a different color i could send you the model and you could do the colors and the different icons on the signs for them.  if you would like to let me know. i would be very happy to have somebody with your talent working with me on these signs.  thanks.

    cammo2003: althought the sign colouration is excellent, would it not be better to follow the colouration seen in Aus., which would have the end motorway, merge right/left signs in white, railway stations, hospitals, universities and all other public ammenities in blue, directional signs in Green, Tourist Routes in Brown and Toll Roads in either yellow or purple. I must say though that most of them are correct.

    highstreet, and haropro your signs are finished.  haropro, yours should be in your e-mail inbox and highstreet i am waiting for you to tell me what to do with yours.  ICFan, yours are in progress and may take a little longer to complete since there is so much data for each sign.  highstreet and haropro enjoy!!!  i am still accepting requests.  i am sorry i keep changing things but this time it is final,  you can request a sign here or through a PM, it does not matter to me.  I would ask that you please refrain from requesting signs in my cj though, it has seemed to stop, but i just wanted to clairfy it.  also i can now do overhang signs, but i am still having trouble with the highway badges on the overhangs, i can only put text on overhangs right now, like the example below.  thanks and keep requesting!

    an overhang i can do
    <ahttps://www.simtropolis.com/idealbb/files//Olympic%20Village%20Exit.JPG align=baseline>
     
    EDIT:  When you request a sign could you please do it in this format
     
    User Name:
    e-mail address(unless you want them released on the STEX):
    type of sign:  ground or overhang(overhangs can only be done like the one in the picture above)
    type of road:  interstate, US Highway, state road, etc.
    direction of the arrow
    exit number
    and any other text that you would like. (city name, state, etc.)

    purple maybe. you already did 2 purple tollway signs.

    Anyways, i really like the colorful signs.
    Simcity isnt a real place so the signs dont have to follow a real life standard.

    It's just me - but all my signs follow the US MUTCD standard.  It's a realistic, professional look that I really like.

    EDIT:  nycsc4 - If you would like, I can help out with ICFan's request.

    yes please, i still can't seem to get the interstate badges and the other road badges on to the sign right, so if you could that would be great.
     
    ryanb_sc4:  that would be great if you could do the bottom half of his request i would love that, thanks. that would be this.
     
    2nd Sign one in the following order: Exit Sign (151 thru 153)
                                    Sign body:  NO ARROW!
                                    151 A: West St. 1/4 Mile
                                    151 B: Forbes School St. 3/8 Miles
                                    151 C: Mayor Ave. 3/4 Mile
                                    152: North St. & South St. 1 3/4 Mile
                                    153 A: Airport Rd. & New Haven Airport 2 1/4 Mile
                                    153 B: College St. 2 3/4 Miles
                                    153 C: Courthouse Ave. 3 1/4 Miles
                                    153 D: Butler St. 3 3/4 Miles
                                    154 E: Opera St. 4 1/2 Miles
    you might want to split it up into differnent signs so the text is eaiser to read.
    when your finished you can e-mail me at hoffmannjc@charter.net and i will put the signs into a zip and send them over to him, or you can do it, dosen't matter to me.
     
    1dera3:  my thread was only the second one.  as far as i know there are only three active ones and for the most part we all do different things. i think we are quite good and so do the other members. also this is a request thread, i am not asking for your comments.
