Scenery destinations are very possible with the old system, they just need overlays.

The real thing causing what is in your screenies is that Kutchek prefers to put real in-game destinations on his signs. For the D926, the only in-game destinations that make sense are Dijon and Paris. Chateauroux wouldn't make sense since it's behind the camera.

I'd rather that be the situation than, for example, on the M6 Northbound at the M62 interchange. Manchester's only signed on one of the four signs approaching the interchange. On the other three, it's shoved off in favour of Leeds and Bolton, the latter of which isn't even on the M62, it's off the M61!

I think the UK needs the new system more than France needs it. France seems to be getting by rather well.

I think all the map deserves the new signage system. It may make driving a bit more difficult but hey, that's how real life is. And signage is one of the things in my case that improves greatly inmersion. As of France, it should one day (maybe for ProMods 2.6 ) be upgraded to the new system for realism and standardization's sake. And signage making would become way faster and flexible, just look at Finland, it's awesome!

That's a very nice tunnel entrance you've made here!

Speaking of signage system... I was wondering if you plan to add some touristic roadsigns on the different highways you made, just like the signs you put in Normandy. I know it's not an easy job, especially because most of the signs can not be found on the Internet (and Google Maps doesn't help because the quality is not really good at all), but there are some who could be turned into roadsigns without too much work, like this one :


( OK, this one is supposed to be between Lyon and Valence on the A7, but that's the first example out of Normandy I found )

I think these signs are Under copyright so if you can't really put them for that reason, there's still a possibility to make some which look just like a typical French roadsign. For example, I tried to create a sign to replace the one you have for the City of Carcassonne. Here's the original picture :



And here's the (very basic) result after 20-25 minutes of tweaks :



It would be awesome to add other touristic roadsigns there and there, but I understand that the task could be harsh and that you have much better things to do first. It was just the weird idea of the week.

He'll have to wait for a full ProMods release. Simple as that. And there is still a lot to do...

Epic scenery! Can't wait to drive past that!

I'd like to see some of that too, if Kutchek doesn't mind of course.
