Where to find the streets mod upgrades?

[DOmar1990]

Hey I have seen on several mods upgrades to the civ4 streets looking better and changing to Highways while industrial era and all that stuff... where can I find that feature to download for a new mod???

I have been looking on the Civ4 downloads but I didn't find it.

You can take them from my mod. (I think its the smallest download that has the "new" roads)

I also modified the path to be a bit more visible and made individual icons.

Ok, I already extract it from your mod and paste it to mine... but it isn't working. I mean, I can put paved roads and highways on the World Buildier, but on the gameplay it doesn't upgrade by itself from one to another between eras. :-/

ah!

I thought you wanted different road types and not just the same road changing.

Just looking over the BtS, I'm actually surprised coz I thought it did that in vanilla already, but it looks like there's only 1 type of road (and one type of railroad) in vanilla.

In the CIV4RouteModelInfos.xml you can specify a LateModelFile that is different from the regular ModelFile. That is how you make a route change appearance in the late game. Look at this file for a mod that changes route appearance (I know the Better BUG AI mod does).

Once upon a time unmodded Civ 4 did this - it changed the dirt roads to the black asphalt. Then some patched turned it off. Don't know why.

Ok, so on the latemodelfile I just have to redirect the path to the new art graphic for the new road, right?
