Sorry to re-create this thread, but I put the first one in the wrong place and nobody has been able to answer yet.

Does ANYONE know for sure whether vehicle colors can be modified or not? I've been looking at the screenshots in the wiki where it shows all the various types of assets that can be edited, and I'm not seeing vehicles in there at all. Makes me worried that hundreds of pink cars and a gazillion trucks with donuts on top are just a part of life in my new cities. Anyone at all seen anything concrete on this?
 
I see vehicles in the modding wiki. And it shows that you should be able to mod colours.

EDIT I jut rechecked te wiki and vehicles is no longer listed under assets only buildings and props? Did anyone else see vehicles listed there originally?
 
I am sorry, but I am a female player and I wouldn't touch this game if it didn't have a lot of pink in it :mad:

OK, fine, a FEW pink cars would be just fine. But some of the screenshots I've seen are like pink cars on steroids. It would be like the next Star Wars movie coming out and finding out that all the Stormtroopers are wearing pink. I mean, everyone loves a pink Stormtrooper now and then, but c'mon people.

I need to escape from the pink cadillac asylum I find myself slipping into... ARRRGH!!

I hope the colours can be modded too to make the colours more realistic, the bright colours should be a lot rarer. Those brightly coloured doughnut, hotdog and drinks vans are annoying as well, they are far too common and look kind of silly. Hopefully the can be replaced with the regular van. It would be cool if someone could mod in the traffic car models from CIM 1, they were far more realistic and varied and were actually based on real vehicles. The cars in Cities Skylines all look like generic toy cars rather than real vehicles.

One of the official promotional videos (forget which one) has a close-up on an intersection at one point where you can see FIVE hotdog trucks in the picture at the same time!!! Need I say more? I absolutely love everything I've seen in the videos and screenshots so far, except this one thing is driving (pun intended) me insane!!!
 
I know that bus lines can have different colors and trains can be changed, I don't know about general traffic. I do see your concern, but am also oddly OK with the vehicles because of the tilt shift look I see.
 
I like the way that the game looks now (apart from some buildings that look a bit "futuristic").

But the cars, they need to be changed a bit. I don't really like the hotdog vans or doughnut vans everywhere. And the colours.

Other than those, the game looks great. (IMO)

I noticed that effect in recent images too. I like it!

And I think the bright paint jobs look much more subdued and natural in the North theme, so fear not. Just use that if you don't like the Sunny theme.


Now that pink storm trooper driving that pink Cadillac would be PRICELESS!
 
I was disappointed to hear Marina mention on Quill's stream that Vehicle Mods aren't enabled yet. :( And from her phrasing, I'd assume Citizens Mods as well are probably still in development and won't be ready to go next Tuesday either. Hopefully they'll get in there before too long.
