Development on version 1.x (Current Map Improvements)

But why the dutch crash barriers at the A1/A45 crossing?

The base is from the Rotterdam interchange so we will still need to edit it to fit German standards (Hence this being a WIP project so far)...


Remember, ARP just started 3-4 days ago

You hopefully know that autobahn crosses don't have Ausfahrt signs

Of course it is wip, but it's looking so nice so far that I did not realise that it's wip at the moment when I've seen the screen.

Dudes, you are crazy.
This will be perfect, the virtual germany is.....bad, to say it nice. What bothers me the most is the "Drackensteiner Hang" on Autobahn 8 from Stuttgart to Munich.
In reallife there is, from Munich to Stuttgart, one lane on the side of a tall mountain, in the valley right near it a small village and right naer it again a mountain.
From Stuttgart to Munich there is the same, but at the last part before both lanes are running togehter there is a small tunnel, maybe a kilometre in lenght.

Ingame is upwards a bridge like it was in the early 80s. Downwards is a tunnel, yes, biut its there the whole time.


Including the three tunnels from Stuttgart to Frankfort and Mannheim.^^


The Autobahn 8 is the autobahn i was on the most time, right after the A7.^^

I`m looking forward to see your improvments.
Best regards Manu

U're right KingScania about Drackensteiner Hang , when i was riding for the first time on that route i was very surprised about that big hole in the map
When i searched on google earth and on an turist map that i have - that viaduct is small and the distance when the road breaks up is not that big - although the landscapes are beautiful

[KingScania]

Right, its beautiful to drive. Except when its snowy. D
Maybe this will help u guys

Yeah I have been there before. Especially the warning signs is something that I really remember from that trip :p

I was planning on a rebuild of the BAB8 anyways since it's a dangerous autobahn irl (like no hard shoulders at some areas in the direction of Salzburg (A) )

[KingScania]

The best thing on the Hang is the anti ice system. On both sides are some dispensers. If its icy, they are spraying a fluid that kills all the ice on the road. This is a pretty good system.

Are you adding some kilometers signs to germany or some other countries ?
That would be more realism

Possible...

It however always takes some extra work to create them but with future ETS2 updates it will be alot easier.
