American Railroad Signal Replacer

This mod replaces the vanilla railroad crossing signals with an American style crossing signal.

Currently the lights are non-functioning, but I am in the process of fixing that and will be adding an animated barrier soon too.


Upcoming soon:
Reworked small crossing cross bucks; will be adding cross bucks/small signal to the gravel road.
Animated barriers for railroad crossings
An options menu with the following settings:

1.) Enable cross buck on gravel road**
2.) Enable or disable barrier for small crossing/cross buck
3.) Enable or disable barrier for mediu
m crossing
4.) Enable or disable barrier for large crossing


** If I can swing it I will add the cross bucks to anything else that they would fit on like tiny NeXT roads or ped paths.

FAQ:

Q: What does this do??

A: Like it says above, it replaces the vanilla railroad crossing signals with American styled crossing signals.

Q: What's the point?

A: Well, I made this for myself, trying to build an American style city with custom road signs and road textures looks great until you see a railroad crossing that looks completely foreign.

Q: Does it work like the vanilla crossing?

A: Not yet, but I am working on that! Within the next few updates I will include a fully functional crossing (flashing lights & working barrier)

Q: It looks kinda dinky on large roads.

A: Not really a question, but sure. I am working on making different sized signal gantries based off Conno's original prop, along with a single RR Crossing sign for tiny roads. They should be coming in the next few updates as well.




Possible incompatibilities:

Road Prop Remover (Not really incompatible, the option would probably just hide the new signals)




Medium railroad crossing gantry asset by Conno

Special thanks to BloodyPenguin for his American Traffic Lights source which helped shape this mod.

And thanks to Tim The Terrrible for helping me figure out some texture problems I was having early in development. :)
