CAW TEXTURES
If you ever feel like you are too limited if you're trying to create roads, this is the place to be. I have created loads of road parts. A huge pack including all you need: road textures, road details, sidewalk tiles, crosswalks, and all available for everyone. Yes, I'm aware of the fact that there already is a road texture pack around on the internet. This pack just contains more. Pretty much everything realistic that's possible. To give you a clear image of the content of the pack I'm offering, I've uploaded some images too (scroll down). Please note that the files offered in this package are just textures and details, so eye-candy only.
DOWNLOADING
>
DOWNLOAD (v2.1 - latest - link updated 29-07-2015)
INSTALLATION
To "install" these textures, put the downloaded file into the following folder and extract it:
Documents >> Electronic Arts >> The Sims 3 Create A World-Tool >> UserToolData >> SourceTextures
Updating an older version of this package? It is best to completely delete the older version before extracting this new one into that same folder.
Note: you might want to create a custom folder in here to extract this file.
SUGGESTIONS
If you have any suggestions or ideas for new road pieces, feel free to post it in the comments! I would love to try out new things. Please keep in mind that things such as text on the roads is not possible. Also have a look at one of the road detail (stripes) files in this package. This way you can get an idea of the possibilities, or create road details yourself. For a tutorial on how to do the long dashed lines on the road, see post #10 in this topic. A link to this post is on top of this post.
