This mod is an add-on for TMPE that automatically removes crosswalks when TMPE bans pedestrian crossing.

Features

– image processing for smooth transition from segments to junctions.
– covers a wider variety of custom roads. (All that I know of. please let me know if you find any that does not work and I will fix it.)
– support for tunnels/bridges/elevated/slope roads, trams and level crossings[duckduckgo.com] .
– pre-cache only roads that have hidden crossings to save memory and duration of game load.
– Network Skins 2 now has a new button to hide crossings using this mod.This allows to hide highways markings too 🙂

New In Version 3.0!

– options to create exemption list.
– texture cache reduces processing time and memory (particularly for well designed assets).
– fixed crosswalks for some edge cases.

Required mods

Must have

– harmony mod
– TMPE(any version including local builds) or NS2(any version including local builds)

optional

– ULOD can be used to hide crossings when you zoom out.

Incompatible mods

– I don’t know of any for sure. If you found an incompatible mod please let me know.

– No measurable FPS drop.
– memory usage increases by 2MB ( in High quality ) per every NEW TYPE of road you hide crossing for ( if you hide crossings for the same road type many times it does not increase memory usage – if you have roads for which you have not hidden crossing it does not increase memory usage).
– game loading times increases by 1~3 seconds per every NEW TYPE of road you hide crossing for in the game you are loading.

– Smoothing of Asymmetrical elevated roads is imperfect.

Please report any problems you faced in the comment section bellow. If you didn’t face any problem with loss of data please comment so I can upgrade this to beta 🙂

– the ultimate way to hide crossing with lod support is for asset creator to use Adaptive Networks. Otherwise this mod can usually auto-generate textures.
– If you zoom out too far, the zebra-crossing textures will come back. If you increase you graphic settings, It will increase the distance at which this problem happens. also you can use ULOD mod.
– I have tested this and it works with all roads: Vanilla, DLC, most other custom roads

– This mod may eventually merge into Network skins 2 and/or TM:PE.
