Danish signs in Sweden - E6 between Helsingborg-Göteborg

[Superdavecan]

Hmm I've just noticed something... on the E6 in Hallands län, between Göteborg and Helsingborg, most if not all of the signs appear to be in the wrong case and typeface. Normally the Swedish signs should be in capitals using the Tratex typeface, but I noticed that these are all in lower case using the Danish sign font. Is this intentional, are the Danes invading Sweden?

It's a whole stretch in both directions, so this is why I haven't given coordinates... but hopefully the visible GPS helps. Anyway this section of the E6 should probably be reviewed and the signs re-done correctly as Swedish signs. It's not like ProMods to make mistakes of this sort! Thankfully, it doesn't actually affect gameplay... it's just the wrong type of sign for Sweden

It is intentional. Check out those motorway exits in Streetview

Alright, I guess the Danish invasion of Sweden is confirmed I looked and indeed they are there. And they're not even new either... those images are from 2010 and they were even there in the first images in 2009. Weirdly though, exit 44 has Danish signs but exit 43 has normal Swedish ones with Tratex... I just wonder what possessed the Swedish transport authorities to install Danish signs!

I suppose you can move this to "Not a bug" then, if this appears wrong but is actually correct in real life (strange as it may seem).

It was an experiment from the Halland regional government to implement a Danish style motorway signage on their stretch of the E6 to see if people liked it better than the Swedish (ALL CAPS) in Tratex system.

The test has not been successful and Halland will slowly receive normal Swedish signs.
The real-life situation is very mixed which we attempted to replicate in ProMods.. so it's not oversight rather a very accurate representation

Thank you for the very clear explanation ScuL
