Texas Discussion Thread

I wouldn't pay too much attention to what the sign images are as they don't always mean those roads are able to be drivable. Map overlay images are better at judging that, in which no new overlay images for Texas were added in 1.46.

Which parts of TX-19 will we be getting? I really hope we get near to full length, at least from Huntsville through Canton.

And looks like we have TX-180, which is surprising. Will we get either Davis in Dallas or Main in Grand Prairie?

I guess all the others are technically confirmed already like TX-124 and TX-73, in which we will get Port Arthur.

Like Such Manor stated all those signs may not even be accessible roads. They could just be signs for immersion purposes to be true to the real thing.

The only way we could glean solid information from one of these, is if the road is tucked away in a part of the state that is far from any previously known roads or cities. I checked and none of the signs fit that bill.

Just to be clear. I WASN'T saying that we were going to be able to ride those roads. I was just amazed and surprised at seeing all those signs in the map editor, and sorry for mixing up those files.

I was more so referring to @Trakaplex's analysis of the signs

If we get a Texas blog today, maybe knock out airports. OB files indicates 3 airports. That could be interesting. I think wind sites would get us back to some nature scenes. That could be cool too. Glass plant is another but I hope there's a chain of companies there. 2-3 perhaps. One for different industries would be necessary. Packaging with glass bottles/storage isn't the same as automotive nor windows/doors. It would have been cool to see Glasson in the mix as well. Maybe there was legal issues with it. If not, make it one of the chain companies.

No gameplay shown on the microsite but I find it difficult to think 1-2 won't come. Heck Texas could get 3 of them. Texas is indeed the size of about 3 states.

I think today will be the blog for ETS2 open beta 1.46 since the 1.46 open beta thread was created in Bugs since this morning. But a Texas blog is always welcome

[flight50]

Yes that is possible but there is also Friday for one or the other. Tuesdays and Thursday are typical for map blogs but anything can come any day including the weekend.

@oldmanclippy Oh! ok. My bad.
