Nico.... Machine guns and booze, sounds just like a place you want to be anyway.
Texas is an amazing state and a lot greener than most Europeans believe, it's only out towards the New Mexico border it becomes more 'Wild West' desert. You'll have a lot of fun making the map, if you get the chance.

Where were you in Texas, Nico? It's a H U G E state. In fact, it's the only state that encompasses virtually every type of terrain and weather, from the humid Gulf coast to the dry prairies of the mid-west, mountains, and the lush river valley of the Rio Grande.

I have been 2,5 weeks in Frisco wich is right next to Dallas... And true, here in europe when we think about Texas we think about cowboys and deserts but I saw beautiful green grass and had some lovely temperatures (30-35C).
I know it's just one place (and saw Detroit and Atlanta airport + NYC and Washington from the plane) but I think that is one time more than most of SCS their people

Am I developing at the moment?

Nico, I've been living in Texas (Dallas/Fort Worth area) for the last 16 years, so I know this area really well.Nico wrote:I hope it. I have been to Texas and I absolutely love the place. I'm than willing to create it for SCS if they want me to.
When American Truck Simulator comes out, this would be a great basis for maps, as we've got some really cool highways (including crazy construction), as well as some of the best intersections in the world.
Check out the the High Five which is right by where I live. It's amazing to drive.
If it ever gets to where you map Texas for American Truck Simulator... if you need someone to test the authenticity or need help with knowledge, I'm your man.
Born in Ireland, so waiting for this map... hope it's available soon. can't wait.

lol this is so funy. I know the junction. In fact I have travelled everyday from Frisco (Lebanon rd) to the Sam Rayburn Tollway towards McKinney. You might have heared of the Franconia brewery. I worked there for 2 weeks and lived at the owner's home for that time. Lovely place there

Know that whole area really well. Don't know how long ago you were in Frisco, but Dallas North Tollway and Sam Rayburn Tollway (121) had construction for years, finally finished last year, another pretty big junction.Nico wrote:lol this is so funy.

Franconia is one of the old breweries from the area. Craft beer has exploded around the area, we've got lots of them now.

Thought this thread was about the development of the Ireland edition map, not about Texas!
