Australia Road Signs Pack #2 – Freeway Lane Control
There was a request for some motorway (freeway) exit signs by HayleyFan219. Still haven’t quite got there yet. In the mean time, here are 46 (Yes 46) Australian Lane Control Signs for 3-6 lane freeways that will help let your cims know what lanes they need to be in for the upcoming exit onto either an arterial highway or ring freeway. Each sign in this set shares the same texture map, so it is really important that you use the loading screen mod to save on RAM!!! I tried to make sure that everything was saved correctly in the asset editor, but if you find a sign that is not consistently saved, please leave a comment below. I am not likely to make more variants of this, but if I missed on a common one, let me know and I will take a look, but no promises.
Note: The Procedural Objects Mod has just been updated to allow for fonts and there has been a release pack for European fonts. I’m planning on exploring on whether something similar can be accomplished for the Australian series.
In the interim, I also just discovered that there is a program that is used to design Australian signs here:

(30 Day free trial). I’m happy if you want to use it to provide some ideas for signs that you want to see.

I’ve created these textures in Photoshop, but believe that they should open in Gimp (untested and not going to provide support if they don’t open) . If you are planning on using them, just leave a quick note in the comments and if you post it on the workshop, please credit me in the description.
