The roads has been swapped to the new system? The above pics are old and that interchanger has been replaced already? not sure I understand. The A4 is important for transit..but it seems promods and the poland rebuilding team both focus on the north..too bad
SCS used their road "models" in 2012. You can easily recognize them by somewhat short dash lines for example.
When you look at any new area (in Poland or anywhere else), you'll see that our road templates use "real" road markings, which are different in many countries. I believe the UV mapping of them is also improved, so the textures matches prefabs better (no visible transition in textures).
So to achieve consistency on the whole map, somebody has to take care of that replacement (it can't be done automatically). Those roads are waiting for months or even years for that and maybe now they'll be gone, area by area, with realistic signage placed as well. Those are the details that many players don't notice, but some appreciate (and old stuff annoys us, devs, that see it all in the editor)
Yes, interchanges weren't replaced but... Maybe it's not worth without a full rebuild? Placing new interchanges requires much more skill, experience and creativity. Swapping roads is just time consuming but it doesn't require much skill. elot is our signage expert, he doesn't have experience with creating new areas and so on, so you can't expect he'll rebuild this whole, big, complex area in a matter of weeks since he joined
And all other devs are just busy with other areas, unfortunately. It would be awesome but we just can't rebuild everything at once...

Fair enough, thanks for explaining. Hopefully priorities will be better in next versions..you can always hope
There are no better and worse priorities. It depends on our motivation the most, that's how I'd say it

Devilagent, if you really hate one-lane interchanges, you are not alone and I extended them. But nothing more.
P. S. Please, don't start discussion about it here. I just want to give you a little help.

Is Poland Rebuilding back in Promods 2.27? I would have thought that deserved a little more to the release notes than "General: Critical bug fixes and tweaks versus 2.26"?benjamingnk04 wrote: ↑20 May 2018 21:26Corli, The Poland Rebuilding is in the Promods Version 2.27 included, so yes it is.
