				*** Modified Roadset for DOS ***		Version 1.00

WHAT DID YOU DOWNLOAD?

This is the first version of my Modified Roadset for DOS. It has been tested by myself but if you find any errors or glitches please email (see below) me or send me a PM on http://www.tt-forums.net/index.php.

HOW DO YOU INSTALL IT?

Very easy: unzip these executables to the directory where you have TTD for DOS installed:
   - ModifiedRoadsetTemperate(DOS).exe
   - ModifiedRoadsetSubarctic(DOS).exe
   - ModifiedRoadsetSubtropical(DOS).exe
After you unzipped these files, simply run them by double-clicking on their name. This will replace the road tiles in trg1.grf, trgc.grf and trgh.grf with my new road tiles. Please be sure to make a copy of the original *.grf-files mentioned above!

ARE THERE ANY SIDE-EFFECTS?

Yes, there are side-effects. Currently, my Modified Roadset only contains basic road tiles. Some people have been making enhancements to bus and lorry bays, barrier crossings etc. These are not yet included, but they will be released seperately. If you decide to use my roadset, you will not have matching road tiles.
Even worse: all new graphics have to be reinstalled, except the official TTDPatch graphics and Micheal Blunck's Temperate and Cargo set. It's up to you what to decide.
Another side-effect is an implementation caused by the containments of the *.grf-files. You can install the subarctic and subtropical as stand-alone, but bridges, bus and lorry bays and downtown road tiles will not be replaced. This is something beyond my ability (yet?!). I advice you to install all the three roadsets together if you want to enjoy a consistent roadset in all climates.

CAN I UNDO THE INSTALLATION?

Also a positive confirmation. Unzip the UNDO-executables to your games' directory and run them. Keep in mind that the UNDO-files will install the original *.grf-files to your games directory. All the new graphics you had before will be lost, unless you were smart and did make a backup before installing.

ARE YOU SURE YOU MENTIONED EVERYTHING, I MEAN...

Almost everything: don't contact me over the odd colour of the road depot. I can't help it, the game uses airport tarmac for the base tile. Editing the tarmac would mean editing the entire airport and I didn't fancy that.

HOW DO I CONTACT YOU

By email: hyronymus@hotmail.com
Or at the above mentioned TTD forum; username = hyronymus

Be kind to me: keep your reactions constructive, this is just a hobby for me. If I feel harassed by anyone I remain the right not to reply to you or put you on my ignore list.

BUT...

Yes, I know, forget to say thanks to some people: thanks of course to Josef Drexler for making the TTDPatch and the graphics tools. Also thanks to Andrs Zsgn for creating the GRFWizard. Last but not least thanks to those that helped me on the forum by giving feedback.
