Slightly delayed, but here is the next 3-monthly thread for WOYW!
Also, Adding on to my previous message, I can't wait for the veiling pack - Keep up the good work MS!
Do I see a B7RLE or B8RLE?
It’s a B8, through the facelifted B8 you can see the slanted decency stripsI can’t wait to get my hands on that B7RLE
I really can’t tell the difference but I hope there’s a B7RLE sound mod
Can't wait to put an Ipswich Reds repaint on it!!What, for a B8RLE?!
There will be a B7RLE anyway..
Very Very good work, I know Stourbridge quite a bit, but not as much as Dudley.Working on Enville St in Stourbridge, still a heavy W.I.P:

Thats awesome, I especially love the route 9, I always took it to Lye from Halesowen@Kyle
For now:
Route 6: Stourbridge to Dudley via Brierley Hill and Russells Hall Hospital
Route 8: Wolverhampton to Wollaston Farm via Dudley | Merry Hill | Stourbridge
Route X8: Wolverhampton to Birmingham via Dudley | Blackheath | Bearwood
Route 9: Stourbridge to Birmingham via Lye | Halesowen | Quinton | Bearwood
However I do want to expand further into Dudley, Halesowen and Quinton. But for now Stourbridge is my main objective.
Despite living in Birmingham, I've never been to Stourbridge.
Its fine, Its still going to be a Birmingham map overallIn that case, it will be my main route to focus on.
The map won't be perfect, it will be a semi - fictional recreation of Birmingham. But it should be recognizable.
I like what you've tried to portray, but it looks quite lifeless, and gives off quite a 2015 omsi vibe, in my honest opinion. I think you're better off using shop front textures from google maps or something, as many other custom objects do. However, I do recognise the building, and where it is irl, so I will give you credit on that part. Best of luck for the rest!View attachment 71374
Recognise it? I'm sure you do but it looks different.
It's no Freemans object but my own creation.
I took a different approach to texture making and essentially started from scratch with a street-view image as a template for proportion, I used textures from textures.com and my fancy paint skills to get a consistent look.
I still messed up the proportions as my file management meant each image was a different resolution to start with causing problems so it's not perfect but still very nice.
This does mean however there is no shop inside as I don't know what to do for it and I don't want to make a shop inside by hand, any ideas?
Is this ant better?I like what you've tried to portray, but it looks quite lifeless, and gives off quite a 2015 omsi vibe, in my honest opinion.

Oh dear no, not with Comic Sans. I’m not sure what the exact font is, but might I instead suggest VAG Rounded Bold for the signage?Is this better?
Some online images since getting good street view images is very challenging and requires a lot of work to clean up when people are walking by and there are parked cars in front.
