Finally, I have finished the farmhouse megapack of 30 different styles and designs. All are typical of farm and older urban homes built in the early 1900s. They have been tested and uploaded and should be available soon.The megapack makes use of existing SRV textures from previous uploads, and, I have included a set of brick textures as well as a custom apex, doors, and window textures.Three detail levels of houses are included;Trackside structures - they have highly detailed window and door frames. Houses can run up to 2000 polys in this class. Some windows are set for night use. Unlike using night textures, this structure with the lit windows will be properly illuminated by the train's headlight.Loe poly structures. Generally in the 200 to 500 poly range, they are suitable for general use and still have lots of details.Box structures. They are like the poly boxes used by the default routes. They differ in more detail and the night use of windows.Future project will be a set of old housing based on the 20s to 60s designs. Except for a garage door and shutter texture for use on Ranch style homes, I don't see the need for any additional textures at this time.Enjoy the pics.SRV Ron

Will be starting a house pack soon once I finish up another project.Here is a sample upload of a rental property that made the local newspaper. The Readme explains all.SRV Ron
The bungalow isn't the only house he rents. This is the other house in the paper. Of course, the model looks much nicer then the real house that is condemmed.SRV Ron
