GRAPHIC: Civ 2 Style Railways

[Skanky Burns]

Civ 2 Style Railways are finally here!!


An example of what they look like:
Preview removed, broken link.

I realise that the railways look excessively straight, but then again, so did Civ 2's. And where would a Civ 2 Style railway be if it didnt look like Civ 2's railways??

Anyway, I hope you enjoy this mod

Apolyton screws up again! It keeps saying 404. Sigh...

Skanky u have just filled 1 of my biggest graphic wishes of Civ3. Cant stand having almost the entire tile covered by railroad. Makes it difficult to pick out units. Not to mention seeing what terrain is underneath or if its mined or irrigated. Major thanks for this graphics mod.

thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you

oh, and did I remember to say thank you?

NorthSwordsman be patient. Its probably because Apolyton is switching servers. They are usually pretty good about keeping links updated from my experience.

Skanky, they look real good on my map. :-). Thanks. I prefer orderly roads/railroads, and the ones Firaxis put in were a nightmare.

Is there a way to make them a tad darker? They are very very light, perhaps darken them up a little if you ever have time? Thanks.

Thanks for the comments everyone

Working on the darker version now, but as usual, it will take time

Your attached graphic of the mod looks good.

Unfortunately, I just escaped the Ancient era in my current game, so now I have to wait to see what it looks like!

Thanks for all the hard work!

I've gotten far enough for Steam Power (and then some), and finally snagged the coal... and you know what?

Your railroad mod looks GOOD!

Thanks, again.

Love straight rails!

Love the straight rails.

I am in awe of the amount of work it must have taken - and yet people are still not satisfied! Do it yourself, guys, if you have any complaints!

Update: 2 new versions of the Straight Railways
Basically made them a bit darker than before.

This one is 15% darker than before.

[Skanky Burns]

This one I tried first, 25% darker than the original.
Perhaps too dark - you be the judge



A test screenshot is included in both these new versions for those who havent built railways in their game yet

Who da man? Who da man?

YOU da man!

[NorthSwordsman]

Skanky, like MrWheresitat said, you DA MAN!

Thank you so much from those of us who can't see so good. I nominate Skanky for CivIII Modification Champ of the year!

Skanky, I liked the Raildark 15 best. It's perfect. The 25 is terrific too, really stands out, doesn't hide much detail, really. They both are great, but the 15 just looks PERFECT to me for some reason. You did great work on both! Thank you so much!
