Sure, what do you mean by height markers?

the height of the cables at starting position and at middle length between vertical poles.

to be more precise, the place where the cable is lowest.

There are texture differences on the pillars, that is where the cables should be lowest, thanks in advance dude.

take a look at this. looks like the cables go all the way down, and have vertical cables hanging from them. plus there are extra structures.

it also looks like the main pillars are further apart

I do know this, I started that map with a plan of a smaller bridge in mind, but I decided to make the pillars larger, which is why it looks strange.  I am, however, making a MUCH bigger on that I'm pretty sure is closer to life size that I can be done with in a day or so.
