This mod overhauls the many rail crossings around the map and adds more railroad related props where they're needed.
Features:
This mod does not:
There are a couple of crossings which Rockstar 'forgot' to add any actual functionality to them - ie. the lights don't flash nor do cars stop. I tried to fix this but sadly I don't think it's possible. Instead, these crossings have roadworks or other warning signs setup around them to at least make them realistic.
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS (Recommend using the ones in the readme file instead)
---------------------------------------------
1. Launch OpenIV and enable Edit Mode.
2. Navigate to mods/update/x64/dlcpacks
3. Drag/drop the folder railroadsenhanced from this download into the dlcpacks folder in OpenIV.
4. Navigate to mods/update/update.rpf/common/data. Find the file dlclist.xml, right-click > Edit.
5. Add the following to the list of DLC items: railroadsenhanced
6. Save the file
7. Check if the file "x64h.rpf" is in your mods folder, if it isn't then copy it from the main GTA V directory to your mods folder.
8. Navigate to mods/x64h.rpf/levels/gta5/props/roadside/vtrafficlights.rpf
9. Open the 'models' folder in this download and drag/drop the 2 files in there into OpenIV.
10. Lastly, navigate to mods/update/update.rpf/common/data
11. Find the file 'visualsettings.dat', right-click > Edit.
12. Search (CTRL F) for the word 'rail'. Change the value of 'misc.brightlight.railwayItensity' to 200.0
This value changes the brightness of the crossing lights and works well for vanilla and NVE, if you're using other graphics mods you may need to adjust this value to your liking.
13. Save the file. All done!
Let me know what you think and if you have any feedback or improvement suggestions! If anybody can find the sound effect file for the railroad crossing bell, please let me know!
If there's any coders out there able to fix the barriers becoming stuck at high FPS, I'd be happy to add that to this mod and add you as an author. Seems all they need is a nudge/collision to start moving again, so I'm sure something like that could be achieved with a script but I'm no coder. Let me know in the comments!

This is cool but its still 652 downloads but its okay wish this mod will have thousand downloads because its good
@KenzieIndonesia real
is 901 downloads!!!!11!!!
@Gaming_With_Dj this does. just use something like zerodreammod and then apply the files after theyre parted together. i have it working in my server just fine.
very nice work
@ns5x What's new in this 1.01 update?
interesting!
@DgtlBrandxn changelog please. Good work.
@JAM102970 Just added better instructions to the readme, nothing new with the mod
@ns5x You've done a great job but my only ick is it's non-compatibility with LS Rail Improvements
Not sure it's me or a mod i installed but I get a duplicated Railroad crossing when a train comes through Sandy Shores on Panorama Dr when I have this mod installed.
@JonJonGames Can you share a screenshot?
@Shark_boy_Anil I got a video clip if it helps.
@JonJonGames Alright share the link
@Shark_boy_Anil Here ya go: https://youtu.be/i-fuIzk1m5Y your mod is the only one I installed unless its a conflict with GTA V Remastered: Enhanced map mod.
@JonJonGames Lol, I am not the author of this mod:) and it's not a conflict, the props of GTA V Remastered or any other map mod of yours and this mod just overlap each other. You have to manually remove the overlapping props from the .ymap files. You can choose to keep the prop of whatever map you want and just remove the other one.
Why can I not drag/drop the folder railroadsenhanced into the dlcpacks folder?
Nevermind I got it
Really cool just annoying when at a high framerate that the barriers dont go down. Hopefully a fix will come out soon
Thanks for the easy tutorial.
