Custom Texture Add-ons for The Heights (Alaska.pod)

These textures are intended to supplement the stock textures from
The Heights (Alaska.pod).  The original track has no 45 degree straights,
45 degree turns, or road intersections.  These textures provide them.

I assume you have the Art and models already extracted from Alaska.pod or
you are using Sir James zzAlaska.txx template file.
Please understand that these Add-on textures DO NOT have any of the properties
such as grip depth preset for them, you will have to do that separately.

To use these textures, simply unzip them into the your Traxx Art folder.
The following descriptions show the layout for positioning the texture files
in accordance with the Traxx convention developed by Guitar Bill, where the
first digit is the column, and the second digit is the row, starting at 00.

There are also corresponding Pattern Files in the 'Alaska Add Ons.txp' file.
The .txp file must be put into your Traxx directory, NOT the Art directory.
When you open the Traxx Patterns Box, click on the Open Folder Icon in the 
tool bar, and select Alaska Add Ons.txp, to access them.  I added some extra
rows of stock textures to the 45 degree turn patterns to make them square
so it would be easier to mirror and rotate them to get them to fit together.
Remember to use 'mirror AREA' and 'rotate AREA' when working with patterns.

There are two types of dirt road textures in The Heights, I will just refer 
to them as 'dark road' and 'light road'.  The light road is a bit of a pain 
because the tracks are offset, and there are several stock straight sections
for it.  In the picture, I found the best matches with 8TVR02 and 8TVR03.

Dark road 45 degree straight
8TDS00, 8TDS10, 8TDS20

Light road 45 degree straight
8TLS00, 8TLS10, 8TLS20

Dark road 45 degree turn
This turn is a little awkward, some of the base stock texture is used 
to complete the pattern, so I assume you have that texture already. 
In this case when I refer to 'base' I mean 8TMTTA01 which is not 
included here, it will be in your art folder when you extract the Art
and Models from The Heights (Alaska.pod), or if you download Sir James
zzAlaska.txx template file.
