My opinion is actually different. It doesn't mean I don't like Kutchek's work but it was good at its time back to 2013, when he began, it was different like the rest of ProMods but time flies. Look what the creators of the Baltic Countries are doing, same for Finland, Iceland or Spain. It's another quality because also SCS created back in 2015 the Scandinavia DLC with new assets and textures, making it easier to create the most realistic assets possible. I hope the same is going to happen with the new France. It's not that I won't see Kutchek's work in the merging of France but I would be happy if they do like they did with the merging in Scandinavia. Some parts stay original but with custom signs and others are just rebuilt. It's just my opinion, don't take this as a rant. Thanks.Michieten88 wrote:To be honest i like Kutchek's work better!
France reworked doesn't impress me very much , a total rebuild should had been done
New France will look stunning but the rest old France kind of messy
Dear me!
Even the plan for rest of the country i don't like from SCS , Kutchek plan is the real deal
Sorry to say this but it's the truth
It's not the truth; it's your opinion. Don't brand your opinion as a fact, because it's very subjectiveMichieten88 wrote:To be honest i like Kutchek's work better!

You speak a lot of sense, and the way you've put your point across makes me understand better why you use these assets, parts of the maps etc but then you have to break down the previous guy's point a little bit more. I can see how it did not date very well, textures of some models in those villages are poor, but I agree with him that Kutchek's planning is exceptional. All these little unsigned on the map villages and the general road network layout give it that real countryside French feel and should remain in the map, but perhaps with texture, model and prefab improvements. My two cents.It's not the truth; it's your opinion. Don't brand your opinion as a fact, because it's very subjective
For the record: Be glad that they actually did something with it, giving it a touch up.
They never planned to upgrade the old part of France, but they actually listened to their beta testing community and this was the quickest way to win s lot in style. They replaced the vegetation, grass textures, navigation signs, road templates and all interchange and rest stop prefabs (except one in Calais) with new ones. You finally don't have those pesky single-lane interchanges anymore (nor will there be any in the France DLC). And that in the course of just one month!
What you're asking is many months of extra work, where they can't make revenue on a product they already sold. It's not worth their time and money and it will delay the rest of the France DLC way too much. What happened now is that the old France has been upgraded while the new DLC was being tested. No time was lost there. Given the time and money and required effort, this is the best compromise.
So please, stop your bashing against SCS (and blind praise to us, for that matter). We are very happy to use their new DLC France assets, some of which are much better than we could ever make. Remember, without SCS, there wouldn't be a ProMods.
