Would be great if this could be supported?

Hi, what exactly do you mean by “support” in this context?

Basically, you can load both mods at the same time; it'll just use the textures from the Elevated Rail Recolor mod.

I guess I am.looking for a hd version of the yellow guard lines.

So, for several reasons, I won’t simply upscaling the textures from the other mod and using them.

  1. When it comes to maintenance, I want to be independent of another source that might change.
  2. The textures from the other mod have artifacts and jagged edges that would make upscaling very difficult—and you can’t create clean upscales from messy sources.

If you’re mainly interested in the color of the railings, I can try to see if I can come up with something similar.

That would be great, yes it's about the yellow railings

Well, I can offer you the following color palette.
What colors would you be interested in?


The original is in the upper left corner.

My preference would be the the third from the left on the top row. (Yellow)

Okay, I'll give it a try over the next few weeks.

I won't touch the ramps, pylons, or remnants for now (the memory requirements would skyrocket), so they might end up looking a bit inconsistent.

Hi, what do you think of this result?

I've only colored the top part of the railing so far. If I color the bottom part, the transition to the pylons and ramps looks really out of place, but maybe I'll find a solution.

Sweet!!!
Perhaps they are a tad to bright.. regarding the bottom part, i think the other mod did a ok job by making the pylons more greyish:

I reduced the brightness and increased the red component.

I've also colored all the elements that are part of the railing. I would leave the red crossbeams between the tracks their current red color. That way, the transition to the pylons and ramps will look better.

looks great! thank you. also somehow the red pylons now provide a nice contrast

You don't just get one, two or even three colours to choose from. You can now choose any colour for the railing.

This is great thank you so much!
