Here's a place for us to share our transportation intersections.
These are a few from an upcoming Mayor Diary, and all are still under construction.

Here's a few interchanges I did in 3RR-ST last summer before rescaling the region.
* * *
I-760 and I-60 divide.
#8
Closer in.
#9
A future freeway junction?
#10
R-14 and R-16 freeway junction east of Pineshore.
#11
From another angle...
#12
And closer in.
#13
I-74 and I-683 divide west of Pineshore.
#14
I-60 and I-483 divide northwest of Pineshore.
#15
A rural interchange. It was built after the map was made, but this is where it is, in any event.
#16
A near downtown "spaghetti junction"...someday.
#17
The western terminus of I-160.
#18

Very nice intersections/interchanges everyone. :thumbsup:
sanantonio: Yours have a nice clean quality to them that I quite like.
praiodan: That's very clever use of the GLR and the Avenue over pass.
David: It's good to see the old "Homebrew" interchanges again. Brings back a lot of great memories from the early days of 3RR.
ABCsan: I really like how you worked in the diagonal avenues and the Marrast underpass lot. Looks like quite the construction site you have going there.
Here's a couple interchanges of mine that I thought I'd share with you. They're the result of a new modular interchange mod I've been working on for the Rural Highway (RHW) project:

Wow, @ everyone &apls . All very impressive indeed.
@sanantonio : I really like the way you used terraforming to "create" interchanges that otherwise wouldn't be possible.
@praiodaon : Using the GLR and avenue pieces the way you did is inspirational Also integrating the elevated rail as well. Very nicely done.
@David : I remember those intersections my friend. They are still a marvel to look at. Simply fascinating to see how you made your own interchanges since they did not exist.
@ABCsan : Very very cool indeed. I love the diamond shape the avenues form. [ ABCさん: 本当に、非常に非常にクールです。 私は大通りが形成するダイヤモンドの形が非常に
好きです。 ]
@Tarkus : I really like the use of the RHW interchanges. Do you know if the RHW update has become available yet? For a while now there were suggestions that the new NAM compatable version would be out along with the intersections you are appearantly still working on. ;)

Thank you all for the compliments! I really appreciate it. With that first interchange, I'm toying with the idea of perhaps adding some more ramps to it so it can connect to the residential area at the bottom of the pic (the advantage of breaking everything into mostly 1x1 and 1x2 pieces).
Gaston, the new RHW (v17) that is going to be compatible with NAM v20 still hasn't been released yet. Unfortunately, I can't give an ETA as v17 has been entirely qurlix's project. He's still around, but has been going crazy adding new stuff, so it may still be awhile longer.
And Marius, those pieces for the RHW interchanges are actually part of a yet-unreleased new mod I'm still working on, which I'm hoping to make available in the next month or so.

So yeah, here's an concept intersection that's not connected to any current network, but what I was planning on doing. Basically, this is what it was supposed to look like:
\
\ | |
/|\ | /|\
---+--------+---
\|/ | \|/
| | |
\ | /|\
\-----+---
| \|/
The vertical line that doesn't cross the others with a "+" is an avenue, the rest are all freeways. But then I found the "Multi-Highway" guide, and I thought, 'Why not do a thing with the freeways meeting up, and having them merge into only one road?' So out of that, this came up:
(https://www.sc4devotion.com/forums/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fi17.photobucket.com%2Falbums%2Fb99%2FJetWarrior%2FSimCity%25204%2520Pics%2FTransportationThing.jpg&hash=40f21536376a6d156ee3c1eda32b6d41a96fe65c)
The multi-lane highways allow for traffic from the one freeway to bypass everything and head straight to the avenue on the other side. The one-way roads not only allow access to the overpassing avenue, but also to the street on the other side. The avenue is only there because there would have to be an avenue crossing where I planned on building this. So yeah...just a weird concept that I wanted to try...

The vertical line that doesn't cross the others with a "+" is an avenue, the rest are all freeways. But then I found the "Multi-Highway" guide, and I thought, 'Why not do a thing with the freeways meeting up, and having them merge into only one road?' So out of that, this came up:
(https://www.sc4devotion.com/forums/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fi17.photobucket.com%2Falbums%2Fb99%2FJetWarrior%2FSimCity%25204%2520Pics%2FTransportationThing.jpg&hash=40f21536376a6d156ee3c1eda32b6d41a96fe65c)
The multi-lane highways allow for traffic from the one freeway to bypass everything and head straight to the avenue on the other side. The one-way roads not only allow access to the overpassing avenue, but also to the street on the other side. The avenue is only there because there would have to be an avenue crossing where I planned on building this. So yeah...just a weird concept that I wanted to try...

Great shots everyone!
Here are a couple of shots from an upcoming CJ of mine.
I'm trying to experiment with multi-highways. As you can see it's 6 lanes in each direction with the inner 3 being express-lanes.

I wish the game had a better way to connect parallel highways. It looks odd to have a zebra-crossing on the expresslanes...

I will jump on the innovative. But a question, as interesting as number 1 is, couldn't the same movement be supplied with less? Not being critical here, just wondering. There is a manual (MUTCD by name) that defines what the federal government (in the US) prescribes for controlling movement of traffic, unfortunately thats all I learned. But for thinking an intersection through, well, you did some work.

cammo2003, if you don't mind some suggestions, I would suggest taking a one way road off the other end of the avenue instead of off the side as you did. Also try to redrag the road to the avenue and it may fix itself where that connection is. I hope this makes sense. I think it may make your picture all that much more perfect.

I'll put it lightly and say that it's a very, very finicky intersection.
What I was trying to avoid is this:

(Hosted at ImageShack.us)
I want to prevent that movement (Sims can u-turn at that form of the intersection.
Here's the spot it's inspired by:
map of the area (http://maps.google.com.au/?ie=UTF8&ll=-33.427905,151.336251&spn=0.006366,0.014334&z=17&om=1)
Take a look at the satellite view (which is slightly messed up thanks to being at the edge of two pictures) to see the "genius" of the local planning.
Now, the Pacific Highway is the main route through Gosford (it's bypassed by the Sydney-Newcastle Freeway, but Gosford is one of the larger centres near the freeway)... Two lanes just after the slip roads. It later widens to four lanes, but
Point taken on redragging the road, though.
I'm not doing an exact recreation of the area (I've never been good at getting the roads in exactly the right spot) but it is a strong inspiration.

Drag the avenue one more tile to fix that little issue. :P
Ah, those sorts of Y-splits are so common along the F3 freeway, mainly due to the work being done in stages.

Some very nice intersections here. Very interesting. I might not have something over the top or very creative like you guys. But its something different. Do you remember Lakeyboy's Slip Lanes?
Hey, I never saw those before! Are they still available?

They are still avaiblable, but they dont work in-game. They are only textures with a lot that causes CTD. I have created the RULs for the textures and made them compatible with the ATL mod in NAM. They will be released as part of the next NAM.

I wish that worked... Like I said, finicky intersection. Won't let me do it.. To be fair, it's a rather tight intersection, even IRL (this one's in Gosford itself, pretty much on the fringe of its "CBD" - if indeed it can be called that.This particular split is intended (IRL, anyway) to seperate traffic headed to Gosford's CBD from that headed to places such as East Gosford, Erina, and Terrigal.
I'm not, of course, trying to accurately recreate the place, though that particular intersection is heavily based on the situation in real life (Even the stadium layout's close!).

Cammo,
The oneway arrows reduction plugins of the June NAM is preventing you from making the split of the oneway roads that you are wanting to create. Try temporarily removing the oneway arrows reduction plugins.

I actually ended up changing it to the way it was in the one I said I didn't want. Due to better information about that particular ramp (which has the u-turn movement according to the latest Sydway street directory). I'm not making an exact replica of the area (far from it!) but I am taking a lot of inspiration from the RL layout of major roads in the area. Will keep that in mind for the future, though.

Roundabout fillers, a different approach:

I tried about twenty different things in the center of the avenue roundabout, but nothing looked appropriate. So I started to plop some mayor mode tree menu stuff in there, and voilà, I came up with this solution: A couple of Cycledogg's grey rocks, and a few small bushes in between. :)

Haljackey, The first time I saw this update I saw some interesting stuff, but I usually think this type of transit network is a waste of space. But last night I needed to make some RL intersections and I refered to this thread and I eneded up using some of your ideas. Thanks.

Well, I don't think I deserve that kind of title. I just use the existing networks (what we already have) and some creativity to make what looks and works best in my cities. There are a lot of possibilities, but there will be even more when (replaced from if, my bad Tarkus! :P) the new RHW interchange network becomes available (the MIS system).
Feedback, both positive and negative is appreciated.
I will post some more when I get some free time since everyone likes them so much.
Thanks in advance,

Okay, you're right, I'm wrong. (Edited my last post for you)
Alright, since everyone enjoyed my last post, I'll give you an encore! A dozen more!
I also managed to work out the image resizing thing (thanks to star.torturer!) so the images will appear compressed here to comply with site regulations. I will provide a link BELOW each image that will direct you to the uncompressed, FULL RESOLUTION image (1440x900, although two are "special" at 1280x1024).
Anyways, FYI, these are all RAW images taken from the game. They are not "photoshopped" in any way. The only editing done to them was to change their format from .png images to .jpeg format.
Here we go!

I personally love designing (concept) interchanges by hand, but by limitations of the current transportations options, most of the time I never really create them in SimCity 4.
Here's something I drew up, that I really like. I'm not sure if it exists in real life.
(https://www.sc4devotion.com/forums/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fxs322.xs.to%2Fxs322%2F07501%2FInterchangedesign.JPG&hash=fd15ca49ed0c73d8b4947e11dee5f1b3e8adca0c)
In fact, it utilizes a sunken highway, and a roundabout "hovering" above it, the roundabout connects to the avenue on both sides (or on one side, as an T-intersection...) and gives access to the on- and off-ramps. The only real problem with this design at the moment is that both traffic directions on the onoff-ramps have to cross eachother, but it could be done with seperate ramps and an over/underpass.
I know that some of the things are not really realistic (like the avenue becoming smaller near the roundabout, but it's a concept ;) )
I recon that it's not really a SC4-interchange, but I didn't really find another place to post this. If I some good reponse on this conceptual interchange, I'll scan and show some more I drew out and will draw out! ;D
I apoligize about the picture being slightly larger then 800x600.

Here's another thing that I just drew. I think this one exists in a few places in real life, espessialy on places with feeder lanes maybe.
(https://www.sc4devotion.com/forums/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fxs222.xs.to%2Fxs222%2F07502%2FInterchange2.JPG&hash=aa9ae0640ace5bc30df1da20904a9fb3fe7cdd2f)
This design exists of two roundsabouts (connected to eachother with a bridge over the hw.), that connect a avenue (or road, maybe) to a highway, this highway can be elevated, embanked (both would require underpasses or tunnels instead of bridges) or ground or sunken. It gives acces to on and offramps in both travel directions, and is simple to follow. However, drivers that just need to drive over the highway, will need to pass both roundabouts, which results in time lose.
Again, the interchanges I draw are purely conceptual, and afcourse do not face any problem an engineer would face in real life (eg. in the drawing every road is perfectly straight, and all conditions are excellent). When I finished my examinations, I will rush to reinstall SC4 and try to recreate the drawings I made in SC4. I could make an MD that would consist of all sorts of traffic and public traffic options, including these interchanges and many more of them.
Greetings,
Casper Vg.

That junction is very prevalent in England. I think it's called a dumbbell interchange, or a peanut or double tear-drop depending on it's exact configuration.

With the MIS many more interchanges will be possible. On the RHW thread, Tarkus (Alex) posted the MIS transitioning with a roundabout so it is very possible to do. We just all have to be patient with the NAM team. I'll find the link to the post of this interchange in action. Here's the Linkie (http://sc4devotion.com/forums/index.php?topic=990.msg89674#msg89674)

I've been through one of those, and the roundabouts were HELLISH! As far as traffic goes, IRL, roundabouts should just about never be built. They're nice asthetically, but impractical for traffic flow.

imho roundabouts are perfect for traffic flow but they need to much space for downtowns

Roundabouts will greatly easy traffic jams if the intersection gets about the same amount of traffic (in a continuous flow) from all sides, and if there aren't many pedestrians. Also, they don't work that great if the roads have more than one or two lanes at most. Ideally, they should have a separate right turning lane if there is more traffic, so only vehicles that want to turn left or go straight across the intersection have to use the roundabout. The more traffic, the more backup it will create for the cars that are about to enter the roundabout, and this might affect other intersections in the vicinity.
But if the traffic comes and goes from all directions in a similar amount, they will greatly reduce the congestion, since the cars only have to wait a very short time before entering the roundabout. Of course, this only works if the drivers are used to roundabouts, and if the traffic laws are clear, meaning to use the turn signals if you want to exit a roundabout, so the one waiting at the next roundabout entrance can enter the roundabout while the exiting car is still on the roundabout.

Paroch,
It was impossible to do until the NAM came out. with that you can make these scary beauties.
Unfortunately I had turned the cars and sims slider on low when I took the pics.
They look better with a lot of cars on them :)

caspervg, you've really become quite the expert with the new ramp system there. Those are just fantastic interchanges you've got there, and I like how you took advantage of all the space in the middle of the ramp loops. :thumbsup:
Kitsune, that's an awesome Parclo B-4 there as well, and as far as being able to build a functional one, I am going to be putting that missing piece you need (the RHW-4 to Dual MIS Ramp) splitter in RHW v21, and I've been looking at how to get SPUIs implemented. ;)
Glad to see people are having fun with the new version here. :)
Here's one I did during testing:

I'd like to suggest two little improvements:
1. Some terrain levelling (at the loop)
2. Turn off the grid (press G)

wow... thanks for the comments everyone. I wasn't expecting it!
- Ennedi: Thanks for the suggestions. I use the grid a lot when helping to find my elevations and ensuring 'smoother' grades, i actually can't recall a time when I have turned them off/it didn't really cross my mind
- Filasimo: It was actually a fairly simple process, just a lot of tinkering and playing around with different grades. The intersection evolved as it was built and this is basically what i ended up with. Carving into the hillsides to make use of their height, and taking advantage of the natural slopes for some of the ramps (ie. the one to the far left)

magee_b, I usually agree with most of what Ennedi has to say, (sorry buddy) especially when it comes to terrian, but in this case, I would leave the whole thing exactly as you have it now. The less than perfect terrian around the loop gives it some character. It shows that a bulldoser and other equipment needed to do some major work there. I love it.
I think it would be good for you to dress it up a little with some farms and than maybe enter it in the SC4 Picture Competition found here. (http://sc4devotion.com/forums/index.php?topic=804.msg106255#new)

The piece in the ranges has got my attention that is for sure :thumbsup:
Now for something in the more simplistic range today
It is of the Auckland Bypass on the eastern side of the West Solarian Ranges in my Solaria Region.
(https://www.sc4devotion.com/forums/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fi124.photobucket.com%2Falbums%2Fp5%2FPalpatine001%2FBrokenMountain-RHWMIS.jpg&hash=ad27bccd8f95c69f813aecf342bc2fe6a055fcf5)
This bypass runs right through the ranges between Broken Moutain on the east and Auckland on the west, saving an hour round trip on State Highway one goig around the tip of the ranges or doing a slog going up a 800m range that is weather dependent especially in winter.
The bridge you see there is a mini viaduct that connects directly to State Highway One giving a direct link.
More as it happens - oh and try and not run off the cliff there $%Grinno$%

Yes, it looks much better now, bigger distance is a good choice, trees at the inner loop work very well too ;D :thumbsup:
The next advice:
- Remove the yellow frame (you can simply unpause the game, or download a plugin removing this frame - type "Pause" in STEX, you will find it quickly)
- Minimalize the game menu
...And you will achieve very good picture :thumbsup:

magee_b, that's one of the best and most beautiful interchanges i've ever seen!
is it on purpose that you can't drive in every direction??
or is it that this interchange is a 'T'. and that the ramp connect further on the right??
if so, do you have (another) magnificent picture of that??

yup it does connect up further to the right... i had the picture focused on the ramp because i find that area to be the most attractive part of the intersection. I'll see if i can round up a picture of where it merges.

I honestly never tried doing this before, I mean I never have made tunnels like this, but I don't recall downloading tunnels either. I think this is the result of whats possible with the basic in game tunnel. Anyway I think this works out as my first MIS cross over. Its just a basic half cloverleaf like in real life.

Since I haven't seen this here yet, I just wanted to provide a different idea. There are some in Chicago like this where its in between instead. However, you may want it that the RHW doesn't go straight up like mine, because all the traffic seems like they want to make the least amount of turns possible, so where the inner ramps are, you may want to have them go off \| -that way instead of- |/ this way.

Since I haven't seen this here yet, I just wanted to provide a different idea. There are some in Chicago like this where its in between instead. However, you may want it that the RHW doesn't go straight up like mine, because all the traffic seems like they want to make the least amount of turns possible, so where the inner ramps are, you may want to have them go off \| -that way instead of- |/ this way.

I don't think I have ever seen anyone use diagonal streets in this thread for some sort of major crossing. As you can see the road goes to the left, but thats thru traffic, so the right lane is a turn lane.

Hey Casper,
great interchanges, one thing thought if you want to make that T-Interchange look smoother. Use the Gentle RHW-4 Curves for the RHW-4 ramps. Make sure to follow proper installation by checking out my RHW Reference Guide. Otherwise great interchanges! :thumbsup:

Thank you very much
@ Filasimo: i tried them on the T-interchange, but they didn't really work out, as some of the diagonal roads are just to small, so do they don't fit everywhere (i like symmetry)
Here's a folded diamond, didn't detail it as much as I didn't with the prior ones, just due to time constraints.

My next attempt will, most likely; be a partial (6ramp) clover, like these ones (I think i'll make the latter)

Here I am, once again $%Grinno$%
It's a 8-ramp Cloverleaf; with an underpass. It features on-off lanes, so traffic flow doesn't get as interrupted as in normal Clovers.
People have to ramp onto the secondary Highway in order to access the on-offs to the vertical highway. I've included both a non-florished and a detailed version. The clover itself is really huge, I should show a compare-shot with a Maxis Cloverleaf... hehe...
Non-detailed, to show how it works.

Please also notice that I build my interchanges in a non-realistic way; there's no differences in height, nor is there any civilisation in any proximity of the interchange (that's why they are so huge)
If I can figure out how to do it, I might create a flash-version of this one (the clover), that will show detail shots of it aswell.
Here's another one I just dug up, it's a T-intersection between two embanked RHW4s. The ramps leading on and off are embanked themselves, but the ground within them is not.

@bugsabre87 The diagonal avenue/diagonal oneway issue has been brought up before. Someone said it has something to do with the reduced one way arrows causing an issue. Now, suposebly when you temporarily take that dat file out, and play the game with the oneway arrows in, you should get the correct intersection for the diagonal ave/oneway, I haven't tried it myself though. Anyway, though, back to intersections. It seems when you cross the RHW MIS ramp over an Avenue, you get traffic lights, but in my case, I ended the MIS ramp with a oneway for turning lanes, coming off I-55 to Weber Rd. Also, I thought signage would be appropriate to attempt reality.

@praiodan, looks great, but thats not based off a real community is it? I mean traffic circles and symetrical design look great, but oh man, this looks like a difficult to drive interchange you got here, I think most of all the avenue roundabouts. I guess we all have that option to put ramps to the circle parallel to avenues, but it feels that once you get up to the circle its like CRUNCH! Are those oneway roads leading to the roundabout or two way traffic? I don't know whats more difficult in this case.

No, it isn't based on anything real apart the bridge arch :D But well, eh, I like to punish my sims for being extraordinarily stupid with something like this, and I used normal roads for the ramps, because for some reason it didn't want to work with an OWR setup.

As for the fonts, I use a font series that closely resembles the new Clearview fonts. So, just y'all wait until I get that mega-interchange I posted above signed. It's gonna be nice . . . very nice.

j-dub: Nice work! Just work on your sloping a bit. Your roads are a little too steep and bumpy for my liking.
praiodan: Thats a very creative interchange! I like the bridge too! The only thing I would suggest is to convert the road connecting the avenue to the ramps to a one-way road, since all the traffic is heading in one direction.
It sort of reminds me of something I made a while back. Let me see if I can dig it up:

I made this back when I was experimenting with the Multi-RHW concept. It was quite a challenge to make back then, but now with the release of the newest RHW version, making a Multi-RHW is simple!

I miss a very important detail, though. I pity the sims that need to find their ways in these spaghetti. Signs! Lots of signs.....
Don't misunderstand: I do not mean this as a personal insult. I know as good as you all do, that signing is quite an underestimated subject in the game. And I know that a lot of people worked on some solutions, but I fear that we have to live without the extensive signage that we would need in RL to find our ways.
Maybe all of our sims have route finding thingies? (What are they called in english?)

As for the lack of signage, there's just not enough people who know how to make the signs to fill the demand for signs that is out there, unfortunately.

Lwito: Your highways are awesome except for the fact that you convert them to avenues to make some connections. There are some one-way ground highway connections in the NAM. If you used them instead of downgrading it to an ave, it would look much better!
-Also, it would mprove the functionality of the network too! Adding an extra lane in each direction will significantly increase speed and capacity (highway instead of ave)
Oh, and it looks like you are missing the asphalt texture for the Raised-road to ground highway ramp. You can download the texture HERE. Its only available on Simcities, so may need to have an account here, you will have to register before you can download it. (http://www.simcities.com/new.php?exchange=sc4&loc=direct&t=texture&id=18_00000171) Make sure it loads AFTER the NAM.
I hope it helps you out!

xmike1991: Nice job! Thats the first time I've seen a 3-level RHW interchange!
The only thing that sticks out is the very close proximity of the ramps on the roundabout level, This causes weaving, which is very unsafe for criss-cross traffic.
-You could help fix this by adding a direct ramp from one highway to another (example, direct connection from the northbound RHW to the eastbound RHW, bypassing the roundabout).
-You could also space your ramps connecting to the roundabout a little further apart.
Anyways, I have a new interchange to show, but its more of a shot of the complex infrastructure nearby.

The only thing that sticks out is the very close proximity of the ramps on the roundabout level, This causes weaving, which is very unsafe for criss-cross traffic.
-You could help fix this by adding a direct ramp from one highway to another (example, direct connection from the northbound RHW to the eastbound RHW, bypassing the roundabout).
-You could also space your ramps connecting to the roundabout a little further apart.
Anyways, I have a new interchange to show, but its more of a shot of the complex infrastructure nearby.

The difference is not minimal. The image you see here is compressed from its full resolution (1440x900) to comply with the site rules that state a maximum of 1024x768. Viewing the full resolution image through the link I provided means no quality is lost due to compression, resizing or any image editing at all.
To quote from my MD (Mayor's Diary):
Quote
Picture Information:
NOTICE: Please Read!
Before I post some pictures of my cities, please know that I strive for the best quality of my images possible. Every picture from here on-in is not photoshopped in any way, and is taken directly from the game to show you exactly what I see in the game. The only editing done is converting the .PNG file to .JPEG.
***IMPORTANT*** Also, please know that my pictures are COMPRESSED, and are NOT RESIZED! When you resize a picture, a ton of the image's quality is lost, and is shrunk to comply with SC4D's picture size limits (800x600 STRONGLY recommended for MD's). Compressing the image retains the quality, but looks terrible when squeezed to comply with site limits.
But, I have found a loophole in this problem. Each compressed picture displayed will be linked to the actual uncompressed, true image. All you have to do to view the image in its FULL RESOLUTION (1440x900) is to simply click on the compressed image displayed in this Mayor's Diary (800x500). The reason that the images are not 800x600 is because I present my pictures in widescreen (16:10 aspect ratio), making the image much more appealing for the human eye's stereoscopic vision.
Anyways thanks for the comment on my transport system!
Best,
-Haljackey

Well, personally I prefer 800x600 pics, since anything larger leads to horizontal scrollbars on my system. Since you're posting your work at ST as well, wouldn't it make more sense to create 800x600 preview pics instead the 1024x768 ones, which are only slightly smaller than your screen resolution?

Andreas,
I compress my images to 800x500 @ ST to comply with site rules
I compress my images to 1024x640 @ SC4D to comply with site rules
I link my images to the uncompressed image at 1440x900 to show the full resolution.
My screen resolution is 1440x900, so both of these formats are smaller than my desktop display. I can see if you had a 1024x768 resolution that you would prefer 800x600 pictures (I'm guessing you have this resolution), because having a 1024x640 image would require you to use the horizontal arrow keys slightly to see the image posted on a website.
If you would prefer me to compress my images to 800x500 instead of 1024x640, then consider it done. You can still click on the image to view it in its full resolution (1440x900).
Does that make sense to you?

Well, others use 1024x768 pics as well, since the rules allow it. But I just thought that it would be less work for you, because you have to create an 800x600 version for ST anyway. And as you said, the full resolution would be there anyway. :) I have a screen resolution of 1024x768, but since the forum needs some space for the table borders, the avatars etc., any pic that is larger than about 860 pixels or so will create horizontal scrollbars for me.

Same here. And I'm on a 3Mbps+ (at least) cable internet connection. ;) There's something in the process you use to link to the hi-res that, for whatever reason, takes a long time to load. If it's really important to you for people to see hi-res, I'd suggest just doing a thumbnail if at all possible, as ImageShack supplies, which is how I link up any pics over the limit that I want people to see up close.

It's just the ordinary SC4 outpout converted to JPG, and then the "width" property is used in the img tag to reduce the image to a width of 1024px. So,the gain is in pixels, not in size. That being said, the images are heavily compressed to a size of just ~400 kb (you'll notice the blur of many details on the full-sized pictures). In my MD (http://sc4devotion.com/forums/index.php?topic=3619.msg113556#msg113556), I've used a size of 800x500 (usually; my screen is 1280x800) with a quality of 95%; while still large at ~200 kb there is little blur (you can even see the black powerlines on the black asphalt) and the visible "scars" after the resizing is some choppy lines.

Well back to intersections. This is something very wierd, I had to convert my RHW to a oneway under the bridge because the RHW had to turn on a diagonal, and the RHW over the bridge had to connect to a ground hwy so traffic could leave the city.

Andreas: Actually, its not any more work for me to "enlarge" photos between sites. Either way I still need to put this in:
img width=1024 or img width=800 because I still need to resize my images. Like I said, if you prefer 800x600, I will then use 800x500 from now on!
Filasimo: Thanks for the link! I have looked at that thread multiple times, but I still haven't gotten the "jist" of it. I will continue to work at my photos to make them even better!
Diggis/Tarkus/krbe: It may be because I recently downloaded clip2pic (http://sc4devotion.com/csxlex/lex_filedesc.php?lotGET=1462), which instantly takes a full resolution image in JPEG format without any conversion or resizing.
However, as I have discovered, the file size of this JPEG is almost, if not the same size of the PNG taken with the camera tool in SC4. I have decided not to use this program anymore, because of the long loading times that are a side effect of this program. From now on, you shouldn't have any huge wait times viewing my pictures just like you didn't in the past.

Yes! Beautiful intersection. Somehow it looks realistic.
I like the touch with the EL-rail diving under everything, though not that realistic. Usually rail goes straight, roads go over or under it, because they can drive steeper ramps.
I miss something: maybe you should add some parking lots...... :D

dsrwhat316: Wow, nice job! Your ave overpass looks a little too busy, but other than that its a great photo!
Thanks Pat! I am glad you can see my images now!
I really like your RHW system, its very unique to use both interchanges and intersections. Oh, and with version 20 here, you don't always have to use streets to make an intersection any more, roads work too! (Just so you know!)
By the way, I posted some new photos in the "A Compendium of Interchanges" (http://sc4devotion.com/forums/index.php?topic=1433.80) thread earlier today if you want to have a look.

Largest interchange that I have ever built. Island Freeway 3 (IF-3) and Island Freeway 4 (IF-4) interchange just outside of the Foxtown community. The city's encroachment hasn't hit the area, but since the whole region is heavy populated, it won't take long.
This interchange was inspired by Los Angeles types where you have the exits and entrance ramps on side freeway accesses.
It's not completely done yet, but then, it never is.

That's very impressive! The slope for the overpass is a bit steep, but you can't really do anything about that, except making the intersection even bigger. Great work again.

blunderclod: now that's what I call a cloverleaf! I also like the use of the Multi-RHW, one wide enough for a 1 tile median, the other not!
Although I do agree with caspervg, work on the slope to make it even better! Also, since you have room there, making the outer ramps streight will help improve the functionality and appearance of the interchange!

The Transistion from Blunderclod to Susan Marie is now complete.
But I thank you for your kind works for the interchange. It has been rebuilt. Picture to come soon.
I did lower the bridge height by lowering the land for the underpass. Therefore, neither direction has a steep climb to do.
Also straighten out the outer rampways. Now the interchange is so big that it is next to impossible to get it all in one shot. Looks like I'll have to try one of those mossiac approaches to capture this.
One thing is for sure, there is no way that it can be made any bigger, it's already bumping on the side of a mountain and the edge of the bay.
One thing is for certain, traffic does flow smoothly by.

Great job kassarc16! The only thing I would suggest is getting rid of the sharp 90 degree curves. If those existed in real life, you can bet that there would be a ton of rollovers! Try to curve them out gently!
Also, try using the ground highway-one way road interchange to make it look better, and the same for the RHW using the MIS.

Well, it's definitely a WIP, but "function before form" as the NAM folks say! The only HUGE difference is the lack of SPUI (single point urban interchange) capability, and the soon-to-become-carpool exit.
Haljacky, as for the sharp curves, I agree about the flyover ramp. There just aren't enough puzzle pieces to make it correctly. The lower-left curves, near the road-oneway intersection ARE true to the real thing though, kinda. Speaking of, here it is.
(https://www.sc4devotion.com/forums/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.wsdot.wa.gov%2FNR%2Frdonlyres%2FF33AFC70-138E-4F3A-B73C-B39E509DE46B%2F0%2F1007AerialSPUI510.jpg&hash=1c6c2f07134a85d8cbf0ebd0c9b963d7eeb910e2)
Looking at that... I definitely think I've got some work ahead of me still. I was just glad to get the basic stuff done so I could move on. I'm doing all the major transportation stuff before most everything.
Which "ground highway-one way road interchange" are you talking about?
Edit: Here's the SR526-Interstate 5 VERY ROUGH Interchange. Once again, function before form. Lacks the 526 Flyover to North (bottom) I-5 due to game constraints, but we'll just say this was before they built that.

Looking nice, dogma. The Avenues overpassing the highway would look more realistic with 'natural' overpasses, but they would mean lots of work.
A diamond-alike interchange (embanked highway - avenue), featuring a roundabout to connect the avenue to the on-offs.
Drawpath & Grid; to show you how it functions.

The same type of interchange (sunken highway - avenue). This is far more realistic, as it doesn't require massive ammounts of earth to be moved. No eye-candy here, as I was just going to show how it would be more realistic, and I havn't saved this one into the quad.

These intersections are fantastic! Everyone's being really creative with their interchanges.
I'm still getting the ropes of the RHW, but it's coming along. This interchange took me about 30 minutes to create, but it turned out all right.
This is a rural highway interchange from my region Eldritch. It's the merger of US-76 with IH-20.

Right, and actually, I don't think that the u-turn ramp is really necessary because the two highways run in nearly the same direction. The region is based on the southwestern United States, kind of a hybrid between northern New Mexico and the Sequoia National Forest. I have a fascination with the Southwest because our relatives live in SoCal and I've traveled all over the area.

Looking nice there sebes!
I finally found some time to play with the RHW v20 again, and decided to create a 4-leaf clover with dedicated ramp lanes;
I've decided to make the main highway overpass over the other highway, and the ramplanes underpass. I'm not sure why, but it came out pretty nice but unrealistic.
Zoomed out:

EEK! A traffic circle interchange. If you don't mind me asking, why are there stairs going up to the hwy? I would find that quite noisy, and breathing all the exhaust fumes, and cars zipping by. I do say though, that shoulder makes it look more realistic. So is just the overpass elevated, and the other parts ground hwy on top of a hill, or are those pieces that go next to el-hwy?

Here's a few of my intersections. They're nothing fancy or special, buit I thought I'd share them anyways ;) I like using the Big Dig to tunnel under the aves, rds, sts etc etc and running my on/off ramps over long or short distances over the roads. In dense areas this saves a lot of space and gives my sims easy on and off access to the highways. :thumbsup:
The first image shows a completed intersection that has trees instead of an ugly wall to act as a sound barrier and as an excuse to plop more trees wherever I can to add more greenery to my cities. The final two images are from a city I just started developing very early this morning [around 2am before I darn near fell asleep at my pc :P ], and will be a high density zone.

I don't use the BD tunnels for all my road access to the highways, just in the areas where I have dense zoning and room to place them. For the high density areas, I use the maxis vanilla ground highways, for medium and low density areas I use the new RHW. I've never actually used the UDI aspect of the game yet, though the thought of doing so has crossed my mind lately. I do find the little blue UDI icons a bit irritating though.

Well I hope the ATL/ next NAM doesn't run into this problem. Notice how the traffic light comes up in part of the left turn lane, but thats actually not until both avenues without the middle lane are drawn to the intersection on the right. Turn lanes appear at all avenue 4 way crosses, but when this type of intersection is drawn at this angle first with 4 ways, the turn lanes aren't there because the one side is not the same center lane between, but split the odd avenue, to a fork, the turn lanes appear at the intersection, but the traffic light still shows up the way it does, regardless the direction of the split.

And for this one, you know how you can connect oneways straight to avenues, in this picture, its two one ways parallel, with the conversion to avenues in between where the intersection is, and you are able to cross that with another avenue, and this is the result.

@Spa, I don't know if you've driven there, but would a roundabout be better for that real life setup instead? I know what waiting a 5 or 6 way intersection is like, this one road I know has not one, but 2 of those intersections with a signal, and that makes me mad, the light turns red, and it really backs up. I don't know about Halifax, but from where I go to, theres a 6 way signalized intersection but people turning left from all of those roads have a completely seperate traffic signal in the left turn lane in addition for waiting for the mainroad traffic lights to change, but hey what do I know, Times Square is multi ways, and they don't even have left turn arrows the last time I checked that intersection. How many people here get stuck with that guy named LEFT ON GREEN ARROW ONLY?

There's also a good number of six-point intersections in Chicago, too, where the rare angle streets like Milwaukee Ave. hit major roads at their own NS/EW intersections on the grid, mostly on the north side. In fact, there's at least 2 areas known as Six Corners thanks to that. Random trivia, yay.

There's tons of them in Portland, Oregon as well. Sandy Boulevard cuts diagonally through the grid on the east side, and there's tons of odd intersections there as a result, including some 6-ways [link] (http://maps.google.com/maps?q=Sandy+Boulevard,+Portland,+Oregon&ie=UTF8&oe=utf-8&client=firefox-a&ll=45.53894,-122.613688&spn=0.007064,0.020084&t=h&z=16&layer=c&cbll=45.538358,-122.61397).

J-dub: I have often thought that especially since this particular 6 point intersection is a major one since its where Quinpool Road and Robie Street meet. Its funny, there's a much worse 6 pointer just a few blocks away (the street in the top right goes to it). That one is really confusing and is one I'll go out of my way to avoid.

Spa, Nice RL pic from Halifax, I do know how it feels to be stuck at a 5 way intersection as that because where I live (Kenosha, Wisconsin USA) has one and it takes about 5 min. to complete the cycle as a state highway goes through that very same intersection in my hometown. To everyone, nice pics and some has inspired me to try to build some good intersections when I play. Great work people. JKB

Here's one from my CJ; horrific, I know. It's gonna be completely torn out once I can figure out how to fix it nicely. The ground highway, you see, is a turnpike, so it has to have exit tolls, causing me to make this strange mess.

Heres something you probably won't be able to do, notice the RHW signalized intersection, the only issue here is theres no piece for converting one lane to two, which I did at first with just the regular mis to avenue, but could not stand how the ramps had the pink brick zone textures, so I had to switch to two lanes, it makes it look like turning lanes anyway. Believe me if anyone wanted to replicate this, it is possible for everyone who has the current version right now, just extremely complicated. I challenge anyone to replicate the split avenue intersection part, I'll give you a hint, you can draw it and its not limited to RHW. :thumbsup:

That is a very nice interchange, but you might need some under bridge walls. The rock texture is not very realistic. I always fight with this problem but have not found a real versatile solution.
But maybe someone has the ultimate answer?

burgsabre87: Wow, that thing is huge! A few comments:
-The roads are very spaced out. I think it would look a little better if you either had a median or put the centre RHW side-by-side.
-Just before all the Big Dig tunnels, you have extremely tight 180 degree turns. It would look much better if you curved this thing out. Truck rollovers would be a everyday occurrence on this ramp!
-Using the Big Dig lots takes the UDI aspect away from this monster. I am sure you know that, but wouldn't you like to drive through this huge thing? I know I would! ;)
-At many parts in the interchange, you have two roads branch out at the same tile. You clearly have room there to have one road connect at one point, and the other where it currently is. (Just before the four Big Dig entrances/exits on the outlaying roads)
-And one thing that has always puzzled me. In your two avenue underpasses at the top/bottom of the image, what are the one-way roads beside them used for? I have seen them in a lot of interchanges, but I still haven't figured out its purpose.
Anyways, overall it is really cool. That centre section made me drool, thanks for the cup!
Earth quake: A very interesting use of the MIS ramps! I like how they curve away and intersect the parallel roads, and not the perpendicular one. I've never seen anything like that before, well done! :P
Nice work guys!

Also, the MIS/OWR transitions will be fixed in version 21, and hopefully those weird textures by the ramps will be fixed too!

Those are for turning around without having to join the traffic on the avenues. I think they are "Texas U-Turns".

Yes, they are very common here, especially when you have frontage roads along freeways. They're usually better suited when those frontage roads have businesses along them (as burgsabre87 has zoned for); the u-turns are so that you can easily get to those businesses (usually restaurants or hotels) without having to wait for the traffic lights at the intersection...very handy, indeed!

Ah, that's it! U-turns for frontage roads. That makes sense now!
-See, frontage roads are not used here (Ontario, Canada), so that's why I've never seen a configuration like the underpass in burgsabre87's photo.
-Initially, I thought they were u-turns for the ramps, but then I thought to myself "why would you need a u-turn for a highway?" That's why I asked the question. You learn something new every day.

Haljackey: Thanks for the questions & comments! I haven't BATed the signs yet that you can see; but all of your spacing concerns are because I'm trying to get more "bang for my city tile". I suppose my above example is one of 'extreme compaction'.
Now, my response to your more detailed 'points':
1) I know it's not signed yet, but the centre 'managed' lanes will not allow trucks to exit on those ramps for that exact reason. Those ramps were constructed that way due to space constraints. I'm definitely open to suggestions on how to improve that aspect of it.
2) Big Dig systems may ruin the UDI-age, but without the Big Dig, how would I be able to construct the five-level stack interchange you see there?
3) I thought of some of the stack interchanges on Houston's freeway system (HoustonFreeways (http://www.houstonfreeways.com/)) and decided to go for the 'symmetrical' route.
4) Several Devotees have answered the question regarding the frontage road turnaround, AKA "Texas U-Turns".
Look for more coming from me very soon - including a mega-stack interchange between two of these uber-expressways! ;)

All very nice pictures, I especially like Haljackey's second picture, the gap between roads is unusually large (at least compared to where I live anyway). It looks cool! Where did you get them concrete sunken highway walls from Haljackey? I did have them but I lost them and now I cant remember where I got them from.
Anyway here is one of mine, I believe its called the trumpet (I'm not 100% sure). The roads at the bottom right will be a housing estate. North, Im thinking of leaving as country-side due to there being a hill just north and also there being lots of trees.

Looking really great and realistic there, jonoboo.
Haljackey, yours look really good aswell. I think the RHW with huge median could be a great place to place a High Speed Rail into (preferably ground version)

certain bodges, like there is no diagonal OWR over RHW or infact any wide radius curves for OWR, thus it took abit of bodging, oh thats a medium city tile.... and you cant make it much smaller, erm, turbine sometime soonish,

mightygoose, now that is what I call an interchange. That is absolutely amazing. :o The forested setting is an especially nice touch, and everything is right to scale, too. :thumbsup:
Think Elevated Diagonal MIS over Diagonal MIS . . . ::) Or Elevated Diagonal RHW-4 over Diagonal RHW-4. I'd like to get things expanded to the point at which there's a viable alternative to OWRs. OWRs actually have less capacity and speed than an MIS ramp, which actually can, in some cases, negatively impact interchange functionality. If you're using the new NAM A and B Simulators, the RHW/MIS-to-OWR capacity ratio is 1.92:1.

Anyways, I made cloverleaf today for the first time in about a year. Because I hate the problems cloverleaves cause (weaving), I rarely use them. However, it looks good in this area:

Nice job with those interchanges, Haljackey. Cloverleafs are definently a rare sight in the Greater Terran Region.
Speaking of cloverleafs, I have an RHW cloverleaf here adjacent to a young industrial area:

Cloverleafs of this type are rare in my regions, but Maxis Highway cloverleafs are more common, occuring in about 25% of my cities. On the other hand, virtually all of my cities have diamonds or a diamond variant.
Looking forward to seeing some more interchanges, including that turbine promised by mightygoose....

Cloverleafs of this type are rare in my regions, but Maxis Highway cloverleafs are more common, occuring in about 25% of my cities. On the other hand, virtually all of my cities have diamonds or a diamond variant.
Looking forward to seeing some more interchanges, including that turbine promised by mightygoose....

Nice Jobs with your interchanges.
I must confess I use quite often Maxis Standart or the European Exits from the new NAM, and I confess, I haven't use the RHW ...
Well, my focus lies on a different transportation system ;) , but from time to time I create some interchanges I like - like this avenue interchange. It is a bit older and technically spoken nothing special but I still like it a lot:

Anyways, mightygoose's huge interchange picture prompted me to have a go at one myself.

I'm exactly the opposite, I go more compact, because I have to. Heres something I didn't think I would make. I had to use tunnels, and had to route a u-turn tunnel for the one side to go round to the left. As you see in the drawing, its like a trumpet, except, instead of straights across, its all mostly curved based.

I made a, oh what you call it, a SPUI. Its more in the top pic. However, since ther are no signals, I made the one below, with traffic lights, and turning lanes. The one on top, anyone could do, but it kinda gets tricky, you have to take control of the one way system. Sadly, the image 2nd below, you aren't (likely) going to be able to replicate, its something I haven't gone public about.

Okay, the following counts as an intersection, but look closely below to the bottom right corner. This is a 1 tile quick slip lane, but redone with my personal touch. I wanted to reveal this, but keep it on the down low at the same time. I tried turning traffic on to hide it. I can tell you, its a real in game photo of mine, and leave it at that. So remember in the future these things are gonna be big. This pic remains exclussive to this thread here.

I'd really love to share what I had pictured, but its not like I can release it right here, there may be some issues. Is Lakeyboy around anywhere? Burgsabre87, good idea with hanging signs off of overpasses. I know they do that in RL, but I never thought of doing that in Sim City. I always had used metal pylons. If I didn't usually have ramps next to my highways, leading up to overpasses, I would do that too.

1. Discrete interchanges for collector and express lanes. (No transfers.)

Dark Red: Express lanes (inner lanes)

I'm particularly proud of this because it is the first interchange I ever made that I am satisfied with. It took me a lot of time and simoleons to do this. I eventually got the hang of this and made two more, but to me, nothing beats the first.

By the way I have some pictures of my intersections:
The Fully Connected Y-Interchange
I was making a half connected Y-Interchange where the A16 (heading east-west) and the A14 (coming form the north) are crossing, but then i started to make it fully connected. Here is the interchange in region view (before the make-up with forrest-parks, so you can see the structure):

It combines elements of partial diamonds, partial cloverleafs, and a cloverstack. While it may consist of many partial interchanges, as a whole it is complete.

Indeed it does. You just got to look, that's all. :P

You can see that the dashed lines continue across this street intersection. I'll be reworking the textures so they actually match up properly...
Dashed lines signify you're allowed to turn across the line. Solid line means you can't.
By the way, that stretch of road is what I'm basing the MAVE off. :P

great work on the interchanges everyone. a couple of questions though, for anyone who might know.
1. how did eggman make his compact inner city interchange? are those roads directly beside the ave. underpass from marrast? thats a great example of a very useful interchange. i wonder if this actually works in game (ie. cars going straight through would use the underpass rather than the sideroads)?
2. i wonder where etherian got the tunnel entrance just above the obelisk? was that made by a japanese batter? i think i used to have it but there were a lot of pieces to the set.
thanks for any help!
edit: i found the answer to question 1, at least the part about the roads being made by marrast.

Those are buddybud's underpass lots, they don't exist on the LEX or STEX anymore, but if you google buddybud & underpass you should find them - here's a link (http://wiki.livedoor.jp/masahiromirai/d/Buddybud%20Underpass%20Beta)
Careful when you use them though, they require power because they are actually subway connections. And from what I am seeing in game, I believe they only allow car traffic through, no buses, no trucks - but I like how they look, although it is weird without euro textures ;D

Well it's not a spectacular RHW-interchange, but it's a design I got around making to cope with mass traffic (1 mill+ city) near the airport and the transit hub. It was fairly easy to create, just place an Avenue and a OWR side by side (with the OWR in the direction of the main traffic, of-course).
The NAM Avenue Roundabout and the overpasses get really clogged by receiving the traffic from 4,5 sides tho ::)

depends on what its for. Green signs are exits; blue signs are minor attractions, gas, lodging, etc; brown signs are historical or educational sites; yellow signs are cautionary and warnings. That's about all I can think of.

I can read it clearly.
All these different constructions. Of course there is a relation with capacity. Would that not be a nice elenmet to implement in new NAM interchanges?

@Patricius Maximus: Houses off of ramps, hmmmm. Or are those just frontage roads? I guess if it was absolutely necessary to build there, but then again I have seen houses surrounded by highway in real life that were built before the highway was.
Anyway, heres this 8 way roadxavenue intersection. Its based off a intersection in real life. This is not from any newer unreleased mods. If it was up to me, I would do something about those traffic lights on the wrong side, but I don't think any of you could be able to draw this out if you tried to, or can you, or is it just me?

Well Hal, I have to admit, thats probably the best transition from the RHW to Maxis highway, however I prefer to not use that transition when possible, because I'm more into using the ground highway with Mrtnrln's shoulders, instead of the walls.

Here are a few interchanges from a city I'm preparing for use in my CJ:
First there's the simple roundabout T intersection with an overpass:

Next there's a 4-way variation of that one with underground express lanes on either side of one way and overpass express lanes going the other way:

nerdly_dood: Better make sure that those roundabouts don't have high traffic volume, as they can't cope with it. However, they are pretty. Good beautification work :thumbsup:
For my personal use, I have devised a new classification system for parclos. It's based on the Ontario system, and neatly describes every parclo I have with three-character efficiency.
Here's how it works:
First Letter:
A is used if there is 2 full loop ramps in opposite quadrants.
B is used if there is 2 full loop ramps in adjacent quadrants.
C is used if there is only 1 full loop ramp.
Second Number:
1, 2, 3, or 4 is how many quadrants the interchange contains.
Third Number:
0, 1, 2, or 3 is how many quadrants contain only directional ramps and no loop ramps.
Some examples are used in this post. For easy reference, some of them are also labeled with the Ontario classification.
Here is a monster interchange which consist of a cloverstack and a diamond mixed together with C/D roads to prevent weaving:

Patricius Maximus: You use a very interesting concept to classify parclos. However, the one you did post (the A-2), it is actually a B-2! If the loops were reversed it would be a A-2.

@ Haljackey: Those are bypass lanes that negate the need for Sims to drive through that mess of asphalt spaghetti they call an Avenue Y-Stack. Drivers on the 6-lane Maxis highway, however, can't have such a bypass because their highway ends when it intersects the 4-lane RHW. I figured that it would be easier for them to just merge to the right, stay there a while, then merge ot the left again without wondering if they're on the right lane with all those diverging and converging ramps. Also, they can still use 2 lanes as they continue past the interchange, whereas if the bypass lanes didn't exist there would still be only one lane for each direction until they were through the interchange. The word bottleneck comes to mind.

Wow. These are some great interchanges here. I like what I see.
It looks like on the right side, the exit ramp that curves up to the road starts going in the wrong direction, just based on the side of the yellow stripe. I don't know if you've already spotted this.

Of all 8 freeway junctions in the New Mombasa Metro, where I-610 meets I-10 is the most vital junction in the whole city. It is the crossroads of the suburbs and I consider it to be my best interchange yet. It is a modified cloverleaf designed to handle most of the traffic that heads south on I-610. The landscaping is yet to be completed however.

However, the other stuff that makes this intersection is all unreleased stuff, except for the car. The American Turning Lane texture, I think thats what it was called, was but is no longer availble. There are textures archived, you may or may not find in the SC4 community with the word ONLY on them.

The first one is a three-level stacked roundabout variant.
With the smooth curves, I'd advise plopping them after you drag the highway.

You can find those tunnel underpasses here. (http://www.simtropolis.com/forum/messageview.cfm?catid=37&threadid=64741&STARTPAGE=25) They are made by Buddybud and he also has a lot of other great things you can find on the STEX.

I got a tough tounge one, it doesn't look like it, but lets see anybody else just try to make it, lets see how that goes with getting ramps, and a network to go all the way under. Most importanly is the avenue, which can drag under the highway, but not under the avenue. The avenue uses the puzzle piece. I had some tricks up my sleeve for getting this to work right.

First up we have the Chambers Flats Motorway exit for Auburn Road:

Secondly is another interchange on the CFM, this exit is for Canberra (industrial district). Landscaping has been completed here.

Our third interchange on the CFM is for Kingston (residential town). As you can see, the interchange is close to Schools, Hospitals and Police for easy access.

Finally, here is a roundabout in Faire, which is a city in another region. The overpasses are each one way so North/South traffic can skip the roundabout. Noone likes to use it :( (there was a pathing issue with these overpasses but it has been fixed, i can drive across them successfully).

Yes these are regular intersections, HOWEVER, its the fact that I got these Maxis traffic lights AFTER an avenueXavenue intersection functioning. Okay, maybe the overhanging ones don't get along with the ground ones, but its a start.
(https://www.sc4devotion.com/forums/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.picvalley.net%2Fu%2F841%2F1565167344.JPG&hash=7cbcc9cef171c424eef0af4db6dcde7d4fdcf03f)
Alternate type of avenue intersection with RHW crossing. Notice there is lights on the side of the overhanging poles, and yes there is some in the middle still. Here it was possible to parallel signals before and after the intersection with the red light sequence.
(https://www.sc4devotion.com/forums/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.picvalley.net%2Fu%2F1220%2F819225133.JPG&hash=1f36147d8e4ad4b071c3e8e0de3deb81f6115d52)
I only did this to see if signals further than one tile were possible, but then again the avenue left turn lane ones are a different story. Not that I'm going to pursue this any further, just thought you guys should know it can be done, and since the intersection thread gets the most traffic..
PS, don't expect to find or be able to this type of intersection anywhere afterwords.
And now this looks like a typical RHW interchange,
(https://www.sc4devotion.com/forums/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.picvalley.net%2Fu%2F1213%2F1213944780.JPG&hash=c2162e136ea5063466e23de7c858e52bb582657b)
but the intersections on both sides where the on slope meets at the light is actually a half avenue intersection, look closely, the traffic lights are drawn different than regular oneways crossing avenues.
(https://www.sc4devotion.com/forums/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.picvalley.net%2Fu%2F725%2F782503163.JPG&hash=2c71959071dc5ef87d4892669c96e3c31e9a7b65)
Thats because it was 2 four way avenue intersections split up in half. The one direction where you go over the RHW doesn't have them. This is made from using a oneway, drawing a tiny avenue transition over the oneway, spliting the avenue up with a rail, bulldozing the rail, and then plopping the avenue onslope intersection over the transition, that it draws the traffic lights this way. However, this onewayXavenue intersection, you can't change direction.

Alternate type of avenue intersection with RHW crossing. Notice there is lights on the side of the overhanging poles, and yes there is some in the middle still. Here it was possible to parallel signals before and after the intersection with the red light sequence.

I only did this to see if signals further than one tile were possible, but then again the avenue left turn lane ones are a different story. Not that I'm going to pursue this any further, just thought you guys should know it can be done, and since the intersection thread gets the most traffic..
PS, don't expect to find or be able to this type of intersection anywhere afterwords.
And now this looks like a typical RHW interchange,

but the intersections on both sides where the on slope meets at the light is actually a half avenue intersection, look closely, the traffic lights are drawn different than regular oneways crossing avenues.

Well all textures have to be made somewhere, functinalal or not. MS paint won't get you anywhere. I wasn't given any instructions on how to texture stuff, but I self taught myself to make grass by simply adding noise, and alot of random pixels over a gradient. It is indeed an overhanging prop, so only UDI can make it through. I have no clue why that bus is on the wrong side of the road though, see? The windshield is facing the wright direction. That bus apparently has driven off the Maxis game pathes. However, you can see this slip lane has a diagonal Maxis traffic lgiht, and it is red. That is not Photoshoped, and the only way to get signals to change red is to have stop points on a path. However, everyone can now use MIS ramps for the same effect, sacrificing more room.

My appologizes. Its actually just the name of the program, which is misleading, because it sounds like a domain. With out the dot net, its just paint, but its not the same paint that came with your computer, just something with alot more tools. By the way, I do use MS paint frequently for saving png to jpeg. MS paint is good for simple work. I wouldn't be able to make gradients with MS paint though.

Tip about image conversion. Windows XP comes with another program--Microsoft Picture Manager--that makes it a whole lot easier to convert pngs to JPEGs. Just open the png in Picture Manager, and hit export, and set the JPEG custom compression setting to 100%. Then the JPEGs are crystal-clear.
But you're right, MS Paint wouldn't work for any of the fancy stuff like creating that grass texture.

when vehicles in SC4 are spawned they are at a random angle, then if they appear on a road then they snap to the paths before you notice it (unless the game is paused, you can tell then) if it's not on a road then they disappear. ever looked real close around a traffic generator?

I think it just depends on how the computer reacts. My game, when I take out a road, and it isn't physically there where its grass, a car or two will drive on it still, with out dissapearing untill the traffic simulator resets, despite the path not being there. This didn't happen when I had the XP.

haljackey: Nice intersection. I saw that in the GTR a while back. Yes, this thread is called "intersections" and not interchanges. I guess you could call an interchange a grade-seperated intersection, but perhaps junction would be more appropiate. Anyway, the title is good as it is, since it is open to all kinds of junctions, grade-separated or at-grade.
metarvo: Good intersection. The only thing that causes TE Lots to cause a crash is when a puzzle piece goes over them. That's why it's dangerous for me to have RHW near the JRJ Seawall set pieces, as some are TE'd for streets.
pagenotfound: Nice turbine! I'd use NAM overhead pieces instead of tunnels myself. Yes, sometimes RHW is not appropiate for an area, so we default to OWR's. They're nice and compact.

Nothing new here as in features wise, just construction wise. Sure I have two highways next to each other, but due to traffic flow, I had to do stuff this way. What you are seeing here, is Avenues (some split), Maxis Highways, OneWays, and some Rural Highway, and a regular roadway. Just looks different is all.

I know the draggable parts are, but if you look closely at the puzzle pieces, they're a different shade, and then if you look at the dashes, unless I'm going insane, that's the new RHW texture. Compare it to the shots on the RHW thread.

i know that jdub makes lots of radical changes at times... so i think that's his modification... i've never seen those textures on RL btw...

Well it seems to me that jdub's image there is a somewhat low-quality JPG compression. The only program I know of that keeps JPG images perfect is MS Paint; Photofiltre always diminishes the quality when you save to a JPG, no matter what compression rate you use. I don't know about the puzzle pieces, they might be Tarkus' new texture, but I'm pretty sure that the non-puzzle-piece textures are yours, DTP, because the dashes are closer together - Tarkus' texture has one single dash per tile, and they are slightly shorter than they are on your texture.

Great Intersection there J-dub :thumbsup:
And those RHW exits do look an awful lot like the new RHW textures, maybe J-dub could put us out our misery :)
And Nerdly_dood my MSpaint diminshes the quality of JPGs, is there some switch or something, because it gets annoying when I forgot to save as a bmp.

Are you sure you haven't got them mixed up? :P Paint always reduces the quality of an image - it's lossy...

There is another program that comes with XP called MS Picture Manager, and it will let you save 100% quality JPEGs.
I know the rest of the textures are mine.

Sorry. I don't have the new RHW. Everytime I save a picture, MSPaint alters the colors. I definately would have built this with out having to using OWR and Avenues in between the RHW. Then again, I don't know if thats true, due to however the size of which ever new RHW pieces are coming. I admit I did alter some parts of this picture a little, everything is built as it is. No one wants to see a double yellow line in the middle of the road between MIS and OWR. I hate that. Basically I was hiding zits with make-up. While you were focusing on the RHW, I'm suprised no one noticed the avenue in the bottom right corner, its not a 4 way, but there is a turn lane on the one side.

In the top pic, it looks as though you have connected MIS ramps to a roundabout. Is this normally possible? If it is, it may provide me a "roundabout" way to connect the MIS to other networks.

Yes, just drag a OWR roundabout and connect it with the MIS. If it doesn't work, make the straight part of the MIS before the roundabout longer.
BTW, I have here a nice hybrid-cloverleaf interchange:

You have constructed a wonderful RHW interchange, deathtopumpkins. The textures don't really bother me. I have seen RL highways that have different shades of gray in different areas.
Haljackey, the Maxis highway intersections are equally impressive, although I won't expect anything less after viewing your previous creations on this thread. Personally, I prefer Maxis highway over RHW in developed urban areas. Obviously, your area is quite developed.
Congratulations, and keep up thegood great work. &apls

Since it's in the CBD, I had to turn on the Zones data view (no zones are visible because everything is plopped) and I might get around to puttinig in an avenue filter eventually, but you cant even see it, so maybe that's defeating the purpose... :D

Nerdly and Nexis: Thanks for you comments. Nerdly, your upgraded avenue has given me some ideas, too.
I think it took a couple hours to finally get all the roads, on-slopes, and terraforming done after several previous versions and brain stress.

You could perhaps make an upgraded avenue with an avenue and a pair of MIS ramps, too. MIS can intersect orthagonally with roads, one-way roads and roundabouts, and avenues, but not streets, avenue, road or street roundabouts , or rail; I don't know about elevated Maxis highway. (Just make sure that you know which way the MIS is going - you have the Euro RHW mod, so it's hard to tell which side is which)

Shiftred, that is a very nice and compact knot of lanes! I like it.
Nexis, I guess you levelled the land by 7 or 8 meters and then used the NAM puzzle pieces for the bridge? Looks good! Never thought of that, although it now appears so obvious. Like all great inventions....

Impressive upgraded avenue intersection, nerdly_dood. I just don't know how I would feel about driving through it, since it seems complicated. There was one city near me that had a traffic circle (much like a OWR/avenue roundabout) at a five-way avenue intersection but removed it because it was causing traffic problems. Ironically, I heard that they are thinking of rebuilding it to improve traffic flow. Those engineers can't make up their minds, can they? &Thk/(
Nice work. :thumbsup:

Here's a Directional "T" interchange of mine. Route 149 (Airport Access Road) makes a ninety degree turn here, and Route 56 begins/terminates at this intersection. This was a challenge because Route 149 is a right angle - a trumpet interchange would not have worked because the left-hand lanes of Route 149 would have gone to Route 56. Ultimately the solution was multiple flyover ramps and I have to admit it looks pretty good.

Look at all what I've encountered without reading tutorials. Don't get me wrong, I use tutorials all the time, but what about when I want to have 3 networks meet up at a single tile intersection? Well, I have been just doing that all the time.

Note this is done with the current MIS, V20, not V21, as far as I know I don't think this was made aware of. Here I made the MIS connect directly into the avenue intersection. Couldn't add a left turn lane, since the other side is one lane. Also, on the top right of this picture, due to the game's limitation, you shouldn't be able to have the diagonal road so tight to an ortho road, let alone a oneway some how automatically attach.

Heres a 5 way intersection with a diagonal avenue going in between a road x. Notice where all the exemplars are. Just try to redo this and have them all appear, and the crosswalk.

Lastly, you actually can't replicate this, due to how I had to remove the avenue/owr transition so the rail pieces could fit. Where the transition is, I had to modify the avenue so it didn't U-turn where it ends, and the path could continue into the oneways. Why did I use diagonal rail over oneway? Well, there is no diagonal rail over avenue puzzle piece.

J-dub, that's quite an interesting contraption you've put together. Let's see. Part of that 5-way avenue intersection appears to be missing. Oh, and you've somehow managed to branch a diagonal OWR off of that 90-degree avenue turn in the upper-right corner.
Actually, I've managed to do something unusual, too. Can anyone figure out what it is? If so, can anyone figure out how did I do it?

Burgsabre87:
Yes, you are right about the starter pieces. I did use them to intersect with the OWRs and go under the Elevated Highways. However, even the Diagonal Street Starter Pieces don't intersect with Diagonal OWRs, in my experience. Therefore, I used carefully positioned Diagonal GLR-in-Avenue pieces to get half Diagonal Avenues, and I intersected the streets with those. Then, I connected the OWR to the leftover Diagonal Avenue stubs to complete the network. So, the Diagonal Streets are technically connected to Diagonal Avenues.
Zakuten:
To fill in these blocks, I have used a combination of Zero7's New Horizon House, SFBT Diagonal Fillers, Dhamp Railway Dirt & Dark Grass Fillers, and Mas71 JPN Diagonal Parks. The gray texture between the apartments is composed of morifari's Simple Empty Tiles. Since Zero7's diagonal buildings overhang the lots on which they are placed, it creates the illusion that the gray tarmac is snug against the buildings. I used pilotdaryl's method to visually connect streets to the gray tiles.

Diagonal GLR-in-Avenue pieces left over, eh? Good find. I'll have to try that too. Since you know that trick with diagonals, I assume you also use ortho GLR-in-Avenue pieces that can also leave stubs. To be honest I have been using Avenue-in-GLR left over stubs to pull off some tricks my self. I hit cntrl-T, lay down the line of El-Rail for two tiles, then I place the GLR-in-Avenue, over the El-Rail, and demolish the El-Rail next to it. Both sides of the El-Rail need to be demolished for the avenue to still appear, but I have also purposely only demolished one side to get single tile half avenues to appear. With the option of having a remaining avenue stub, I then have an avenue that can have certain similar networks drag into it, or use it to put OWR pieces next to it, that normally require transition. Without having to draw a transition, having these stubs left over from puzzle pieces, gives me a lot more options. Now that I revealed this, I hope this knowledge is of good use to many others.

Meh.. may as well post this sucker here... Its a unique stack interchange. It is unique because it involves sunken, ground and elevated highways whereas the normal stack interchange is just ground and elevated highways.
The area around it has just been developed recently, and the junction is predicted to see heavy traffic soon.

The other thing is, this avenue traffic light here is clearly red after a two tile intersection, despite where the stop point is, but it works. Not that I am a fan of replacing the Maxis traffic lights after avenue intersections, but again this prooves it can and will work.

It is the split diagonal avenue, j-dub, created with diagonal GLR-in-Avenue puzzle pieces. (I love that technique $%Grinno$%) I wish the traffic light wasn't there, since it is supposed to be a rural intersection, but it was the only way that I could make this intersection work. Until a new version of the RHW is released that allows more diagonal functionality, this is what I'll resort to. According to DrawPaths, this instersection is fully functional.

Its not like you could take a long diagonal street piece, and place that down instead? It avoids the light, but its a street. I will have to try for myself, because diagonal street pieces versus drawing seem to have allowed me previous diagonal options before. Long ago, I did get a diagonal avenue to cross a diagonal street, but that wasn't split.

I could, but I intended for this to be a road crossing. This is supposed to be a secondary state road intersecting an RHW. The only other alternative would be to place a diagonal street puzzle piece at the intersection and transition to a diagonal road after the street is far enough away.
Using the diagonal street puzzle pieces, I can easily create an intersection with any diagonal avenue, split or not. You are absolutely correct in saying that the puzzle pieces allow more diagonal options than drawing, j-dub. Did you know that you can cross a diagonal rail with a diagonal street puzzle piece? It doesn't seem to be possible with normal drawing.

Sadly, you are right. I think the reason Maxis didn't do the diagonal streets may be because how when you zone, it seems to get confused with facing the right directions, wether single at once, or click and drag between, at least for me. As for diagonal pieces versus drawing, the two don't seem to be getting along right next to each other so much for me. I do prefer the pieces in some situations for the very limited diagonal at diagonal crossings. Pat, I will post that pic without the paths, before I made this a jpg, the png was easier to spot, but that takes bandwidth. Its just that I put the paths on, becausee the light in the left lane doesn't have a stop point under it, except on a different tile, and I thought someone should get the proof of that. Heres how it looks both sides, in reality its more of a 2x3 kind of crossroad. It looks light the signals are on the tile its working with, but the stop point is two tiles before hand, I think alot of thought, and effort was put in to whoever made this intersections, that they got the signals to work further away.

@ andreas I know it did for me at first. I think it does for everybody. Well it looks like you got the idea, and it actually looks original. Good job &apls
@frdrcklim Thats a long exit ramp you got there, and a curvy entrance ramp, but still original. The wires make you know this actually goes somewhere.

I worked a bit with the area where the dogbone intersection and sunken rail station is.
Added another intersection that (I think) is a hybrid parclo/diamond something. Anyways it does its job well. ;D

Here's a new one of mine; Just about as compact as one can make a turnpike-terminus-with-escape-ramps, I would say. I know it's fairly simple, but it took me quite a while to figure it out, so I'm rather obscenely proud of this.

I would have some improvements that could be added to that interchange, but they can't effectively be put into words... But since the improvements cannot be made in such a small space with the tools currently available, that is an excellent example of using what you have available in a small place. :thumbsup:

I think about the only way I could have made it better was with the ramps intersecting the road on both sides, but that was impossible thanks to the avenues.

@ CasperVG: My advice would be to shrink the cloverleaf somewhat but otherwise it's pretty decent

It's hard to come up with something as good as that was, but I thought I'd show something that I thought was interesting. It's a CFI (Continuous Flow Intersection). There's a page about it on Wikipedia. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Continuous_flow_intersection (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Continuous_flow_intersection)
Edit: It's actually a cross between a CFI and a Parallel Flow Intersection (PFI). I found a page here: http://www.quadranteng.com/ (http://www.quadranteng.com/)

And Alex, nice smooth interchange, love the smooth curves! ...though that's not your usual terrain mod? Looks like Columbus or meadowshire...

Um... the middle two columns there seem to be supporting the whole diagonal section... or is it floating actually? xD
Also... we need some um smooth corner pieces I think for the elevated highway.

A look at one of the sides.
there are a bunch of those here in mexico... specially in Monterrey... since the architect that design those is from here...
this intersection worked as an aspirin for the heavy traffic over there... obviously... it just worked for about 2 years... then the traffic practicly ate the whole avenue and now is pretty messy over there...

Sorry, allow me to rephrase. What I meant by not complete, was that the NWM's behavior on the bottom. The top picture is the NWM but disrupted with the avenue T. The avenuXavenue T is not the result of drawing the network, but having to leave Maxis stubs over. The NWM then can be drawn into the avenue. Lights have not been T21-ed to the NWM yet.

@J-Dub: Nice intersection, but your german stoplights have a un-german placement; they are on the wrong side of the intersection. You must place them on the near side, not the far side. Another note is that I'd experimented with the NWM, and it's pretty hard to make good intersections, so I applaud you that you did it!
@Lwito: WOW! You bring massive to a new level! And wonderfull use of custom content! (besides, I see that you used some of my creations: the LRM and the GTR signs ;))

Oh, my, that's amazing, Lwito! :thumbsup: I see a trumpet, a dogbone, a diamond, a cloverleaf... almost too many different interchanges to count, and all linked up so well.

Lwito, you are now a transit god in my book. I just can't get over that airport interchange... :o
The RHW is amazing too, especially the last one. Do you by chance have a MD/CJ/CS?

EDIT
I am expecting some real creative stuff with this V3 from others when ever it gets out. My city and its traffic changed, so I already needed to redo a V3 interchange, with the constant development after I built it. It originally was just a half cloverleaf for the the side above the RHW, and didn't originally plan that the bottom side of the RHW was actually going to grow, but turns out lots of cars and trucks take the RHW out. Down there the RHW is the only way out of the city. I was suprised to learn avenues can now merge into MIS, probably because we discovered we could start making a type of AVE-2 with the MIS side-by-side, that this made sense.

Nexis, if in the future after RHW is released, I noticed some spots of your city that could be upgraded with it. For example you will have an avenue merge into MIS. That would change the second picture, insted of having the one avenue turn right into a road, and being interupted with ramps. The new MIS would allow you to connect the ramps to the left of that avenue and T.
Heres a weird intersection I built,

The El-RHW doesn't have diagonal supports so it may look a bit Escher-ish.

Hmmm... that makes me wonder, is there a diagonal El-RHW-4 ramp up? If so I think that would be very helpful on building an interchange like that?

There isn't one yet. Maybe for version 3.1....

Think its the same old OWRxAVE intersection? Think again, look at where the exemplars are exactly.

metarvo: Neato! Kinda looks a star when viewed on an angle.
If you expanded it by a tile or two, you would then have room for left turn lanes, there's a good number of them in my area too!
Looking forward to some more RHW 3.0 creations!

I wholeheartedly agree. Even so, I haven't forgotten that we also have a new NAM. Although the RHW is "in" and is very flexible, this doesn't mean that the FHW has been abandoned. Here is an example of the effects of the new NAM at work.

A rhw-2 intersection, doesn't look perfect but it's good for places with limited space.

Hi all.
I have been tinkering a bit with the new RHW 3 and this is some of what I have made in my "Test city" that I deem worthy of showing off.
It´s an "expanded" cloverleaf with 4 exits and 2 entrances.

One of the off ramps :

:D I am surprised people haven't made interchanges with the inner exit, considering it seemed to be a sought after feature of the RHW 3.0 :-\
Another interchange I made, this time with the RHW being elevated (I think this one is a little more realistic).

Please excuse the second RHW interchange to the right and all the other clutter as this is my NAM test city :satisfied:
I think another interchange could be with the avenue sunken and the RHW on-slope over the avenue..

Those are some very tight interchanges, A200. The inner exits certainly do make them more compact, since the RHW does have a median. You have just given me some ideas. :thumbsup:

That's an inside-diamond interchange... &idea next how about a ... &Thk/( dare I say it?
An inside-cloverleaf?! That hurts my brain just thinking about how it would be done... And it probably wouldn't save much space, either... but I might do some thinking on it and make one just to prove it can be done (and I consider a regular cloverleaf a major accomplishment coming from me - they often seem too big to fit in my cities)

I'm not sure how you could make that much better, girlfromverona. You've got David's stop signs in there, used on-slope pieces for the over pass, and have some trees in the right of way.
My two suggestions are directional signs at the MIS-Road junctions and using broader curves in the MIS. Granted, I know nothing about New Zealand's motorways, so the tight 90-degree corners could be extremely realistic.
Keep up the great work!
Cheers,
Kevin

A real big clover leaf 4 way interchange with left exit ramps to go left. Just like a intersection, go right to go right, cross the intersection, then go left to go left, rather then make a right to make a left like a standard cloverleaf. Left exit ramps, right exit ramps, and diagonal ramps are used. However with the amount of space and how many times there are over and underpasses for this interchange, I wouldn't be surprised if this is no where to be seen.

Two highways and a road intersecting. I didnt bother going through the trouble of fully connecting the road to the other side of the highway.

My two suggestions are directional signs at the MIS-Road junctions and using broader curves in the MIS.
Thanks, Kevin! I've widened the curves and it does look much better. I'll have a look for some directional signs, too.
RustyXL: I really like that interchange! Good job. ;D

This one is basically one big interchange, but it has three focal points: With the overpass up to the left, with the avenue in the centre, and then with the rhw across the river. The ramp itself is RIRO to the two avenues and controlled access to the highway.

Except WB on the overpass to SB on the RHW, and SB on the RHW to WB on the overpass. The avenue can access NB on the RHW and vice-versa by going over the viaduct.

Sadly, not really. This is just eye candy, and to see if 5 lanes could fit on a diagonal, without extra tiles. That is not to say the diagonal TLA-5 concept is completely out of question. It has not been canceled as of now, but thats road based.

j-dub:I honestly did a double take when I saw those diagonal turning lanes, j-dub. Eyecandy or not, they do make real diagonal turning lanes seem like more of a possibility.
io_bg: That's an interesting dog-bone variant you have in the last pic. It starts out with a ground-to-elevated ramp and ends in an on-slope on the other side of the freeway. This gives me some ideas. :thumbsup:

I decided to give this RHW a try. Honestly this took me hours to do, and it was so complicated and frustrating I doubt that I'll ever really use it again in this capacity. But here is the intersection I made. If you are up for a game of 'Where's Waldo?' try and find the brown box from a missing dependancy hidden somewhere in there.

Even easier method: Install and start IrfanView, then press "C" to bring up the screenshot dialogue. Define a hotkey (i. e. F11), the file format (JPG) and a save folder (you only need to do this once), then start the capturing process (IrfanView will minimize itself), start the game, and whenever you press the hotkey, a screenshot is saved in the proper format.

Death to Pumpkins: When I want to take pictures with proof of the traffic simulator, I use the Prt Scrn Sys Rq (print screen system required) button next to the scroll lock. You then press the windows button, wait for response, open MS paint, and paste the image. This is a PC only feature, another easy thing Mac does not have. (at least I can't remember the three buttons on Mac)
LEO, sorry, its not possible now.
Jonno, you really, really got the hang of it. That is really impressive, the fact you got an existing city there, and yet were able to get big. And yes it can literally take hours to build sometimes, but the outcome was worth it.

I hear you Jonathan. The simulator is something else. I had to close a road that was getting over 1,300 cars, while the avenue was free as a bird. I had to permanently close the road to thru traffic. They always seem to prefer the first option they see, and only use that. I am not talking about a simulator, but how the initial programming was made for the route choices. If you are just talking about no one using the tram, I think with this 5 roundabout interchange, they probably feel whats the point, there are all these roads everywhere, and we can move right on through already without fear of delay, or its a path thing, but you can't tell with the resolution in the Tube.

Well orginally I had just one roundabout, and still noone used the trams, but before that I split the avenue and had EL-rail down the middle, then the el-rail was used lots, just when I convert to Ave/GLR it only uses cars.
I gave up on the simulators and just removed the NAM one, which is probably a reason why it doesnt work.
The reason for the 5 roundabouts is in each direction there is a half an avenue awith Ave/GLR down the middle.
And I only realised I had taken the video with the paths on after I'd uploaded, probably because most of the time im on SC4 I have it enabled. :)

That's another problem of mine...If I pick the road over RHW tool in the 'road' menu I only get an empty curser and I can't plot anything. These ones I found in the 'highway' menu among the RHW. I don't know if it makes any difference, if thats why it's only RHW-2? Why I can't use the road top RHW from the 'road' menu I can't figure out neither. Very strange.

RBC: Looks great, but I'm afraid you have the wrong road over RHW puzzle piece! Switch that to road over RHW-4, not RHW-2!
Very nice K5, lots of loops in that one!

Good question. RHW 2.0 and 3.0 both contain RHW 1.3b (and older) support files, which allows them to stay they way they are without redrawing the network.
-Remember, all RHW versions before 2.0 were created using the side-by-side drag method, not the puzzle piece override method we use now. If I were to redraw these networks (which I haven't in years), then they would defult to the RHW 3.0 textures. So yes, these are all recent pictures, but not all the networks were made at the same time.
Hope that helps!
Best,

A simple trumpet that's since been rebuilt with a few extra ramps, I'll show that soon.
And yes I know there are brown boxes and weaving. ::) But I don't consider the weaving a problem as the onramp is very lightly used.

Well, I have three points of critic about DTP's interchange.
1. A on-surface rail crossing on a highway. Personally I would prevent these intersections with an over- or an underpass, because there will occur traffic jams at that point.
2. A on-surface road intersection, just after a trumpet interchange. I think that a parclo is a way better solution here.
3. No signage. This is just a detail. In this situation, people don't know where they are going.
I hope you can use these critics.
Best,
Maarten

Well I allowed the at-grade intersections because the highway is an expressway... Though since I took that pic I converted that intersection to a diamond. And don't worry, it'll be signed. ;)

It's for no reason J dub. Just to make it look different. I was going to originally make it so that they are elevated the entire time. When I was in L.A this summer I noticed that the I-10 looked like that where the HOV lanes were elevated due to lack of real estate.

The interchanges here look nice.
grbac: I believe what you are looking for is a three-level stacked roundabout (CBRD description here (http://www.cbrd.co.uk/reference/interchanges/3round.shtml)). Such a thing is functionally possible in Simcity, although not exactly like that cosmetically. Here (http://i408.photobucket.com/albums/pp163/Patricius_Maximus/2-64.jpg)'s a pic of my own type of that interchange.
I'll show some interchanges from my Patrician Showcase.
A cloverstack interchange, with beautitication in a rural area (sorry for the grid):

Thanks Patricius Maximus, you surely inspired me as well and gave me some ideas. I see it is possible but only the functionality not the looks.
Just one more thing, those "RHW tunnels" are actually made with the ordinary road, because one cannot make an RHW tunnel, am I right? I read that in FAQ. And those tunnel entrances are just overhead plops, right?

That looks good, Nexis. I'm not familiar with Jersey, so I've never seen an intersection like this one. I assume that its purpose is to allow inbound drivers on the RHW to avoid left turns. Am I right?

Here is a rather elaborate intersection I've come up with. It origionaly stated as a 'T' shaped intersection, but I realized that I needed a way to exit towards the new development on the top. I added the tunnel and now it all works. The best part is that the traffic actually flows like I designed it to. It's not the most realistic but that's OK. Still need some work on the jagged and steep slopes though.

I have to agree with nerdly_dood. The other thing that "catches my eye is the little cross roads just before and after the exit. They seem redundant, for lack of a better word. You have a "limited access rural highway" exit but traffic would just exit off to the access roads at the intersections. I think just one or the other is needed. Or perhaps the little roads across would be better as dirt streets. Like you see the state police/emergency vehicles using here in the US. But that is only my opinion. Overall I like it alot.

How would someone from the connecting ramp go right onto the main RHW? there is no ramp connecting it... so they are forced to go straight into the highway and not in the opposite direction, if you know what I mean?

Not quite... But I'm guessing you're referencing the lack of a North to East connection (The only one missing). This is both a case of it being difficult to make a visually appealing flyover (I need a curved "L" shape transition from ground to air), and that the main city is south (Via West), and both north and east are rural areas.

@Ulysses: Love the last two pictures... Thats an interesting way to do flyovers that I never had thought of.
In your second pic, the diagonal one ways from the outer roads cross both lanes of the avenue in the centre (Which is unneccessary since the closest lane is the one going in the right direction). If you do them backwards when you make them (Start from the avenue and go out), they'll only hit the one side of the avenue instead of crossing it. I'll edit a picture into the post in a few minutes...

Hi everyone, I've been lurking here for a long time. Here are some images of the interchange I made with the new NAM/RHW stuff:
A really large RHW interchange I made. For them to look realistic, they have to be VERY BIG!

The bottom part of the picture where the avenue and power lines cross the highway.
This is looking the opposite direction of the first picture.

In your second pic, the diagonal one ways from the outer roads cross both lanes of the avenue in the centre (Which is unneccessary since the closest lane is the one going in the right direction). If you do them backwards when you make them (Start from the avenue and go out), they'll only hit the one side of the avenue instead of crossing it. I'll edit a picture into the post in a few minutes...
Yes I know that. But I would like to make a u-turn there...
by the way, my last two pictures' interchange are changed now

I agree with haljackey - but that interchange takes up entirely too much space for me to be willing to put it in a city. (Unless I just start a new region specifically for interchange building... in which case i probably won't care)

Nice work guys.. I'm just wondering if anyone has come up with anything for the 5 lane wide highways.. This is the best I could come up with and its fully functional, but just looks odd due to the lack of the shoulder piece.

Very creative.
Dogma, later that intersection will look different with the RHW4 allowing an overhanging shoulder, so the shoulder should be able to go over that curve and meet in the middle. That will be awhile though.

Great work J-dub! I can't wait for those turning lane MIS's
Now, here's an intersection i've had for a while. It's kindof an RHW interchange, but i used 1-way road as the overpass. To the east is an MIS section, ANd the west and north is RHW.

Building these suckers involves a lot of cursing - I wonder if it is because of the slope mod. Whenever I get to plopping the exit/entrance mis pieces, suddenly it becomes nearly impossible to join everything up. Is it normal to have to bulldoze the highway to get your exits to rotate properly? Unless I god-mode quick-level tool thoroughly, there *will* be problems. This has been . . . entertaining . . . in the mountainous region I've been experimenting in. Maybe in the near future I will try the "easier" slope mod. Might keep my wife from poking her head in the room when I'm cursing and shouting at the computer, saying "everything ok in there?"

Changing the slope mod will make it a bit easier, but I didn't have a slope mod installed and it still took me hours and alot of frustration to build a simple intersection.

I use the single tile road zots, but there's a whole thing in rough terrain, where you have to re-drag the rhw and it changes the leveled part, so you end up going back and forth with being able to drag the rhw and being able to plop/drag the other parts of the intersection. I hope someday there are less time-intensive methods of building these things. Here's another one, simple diamond interchange I did. It's in the upper right corner. I know it's not normal to have all the entrances and exits on the left, but hey, if the sims get in more car accidents, it'd be entertaining. Lucky for the world I'm not a traffic engineer.

I like using the RHW along with the maxis highways. I use the RHW as local lanes, and the maxis highway as the express lanes, and every so often, I have exits between the two to allow my sims to switch between the local/express lanes

Nice looking Interchanges Riiga. I see you only wanted us to concentrate on the intersections themselves by blurring any settlement! I do think it would look a lot better with the 3.0 euro textures, but it still looks great!

This is an intersection of sorts...I suppose...It's between a bridge and a hill. That's an RHW-4 running through the hill as a bridge. I checked the paths, and they are all running correctly.

I will say, almost every intersection in this thread has been great, but honestly, a lot of them I would never make, because they are way to large, and I always generally zone my basic infrastructure before I start zoning, so I can avoid issues where I would need a convoluted interchange/intersection

This is sort of another intersection technically I guess. There are two entrances to the parking area of my theme park, and I want to know which one you like better...the top one or the bottom one. The top one has all correct paths, the bottom one has some incorrect paths due to the lot used. I wish there were better toll booths... Anyway, let me know which one you think looks better, and if you have any ideas for a parking entrance, let me know!

The bottom one is more realistic IMO.
The one advantage to the top one though, is that you could have multiple entrances into the parking area for the park though

Riiga, those are the types of intersections I have built, because they are realistic and do not take a lot of land to use for them. Plus when you add in tree's and open area's, they look great.
I am not saying the huge monstrosities shown earlier are bad, just I want to try and get as many people in my cities as possible, and taking up a huge chunk of a city tile for an interchange is something I try to avoid if possible

This would be my first attempt at a RHW interchange, its basic but I thought it turned out decent enough to use... if I had actually built it in a city :D. I also haven't noticed many raised RHW's on the forums, so I figured one might be nice to post.
The entire interchange from The South:

The ramp slopes only seem good depending on the angle, so that would be the first thing I want to improve. I might get rid of a few of the big dig pieces and try and bring the ramps around and under the raised RHW as well. Any criticism and improvements are welcome!

tengeta520,
Thats a very nice compact interchange you have built. Looks good, the slopes you mentioned is not as bad as you think it is IMO, as I have driven on some ramps that you think the designers wanted to go for the roller coaster affect when they designed it :)
Spruce it up with some trees and other details and it would look awesome

Another one. H-87 turns from north to east, spurring a short urban carriageway that has no interchanges and isn't defined as a highway. As such, it will be simply named, and not signed as H-387 (As it is known in official documents)

lots to show how to use them. Hope you like and let me know what you think. They are
kinda simple right now but that will change as i go. This is my first real attemp to make

I thought as much. Well knew that some of it was the Rural Highway, but what I didn't know was it being a split from a 6 lane. Hmm... I really aught to mess around with RHW more. For the moment I have been trying other things, as there is so much that I have installed, but still haven't tried even half of it. Well maybe at least half, beyond the growing lots. I really should go through my directory and clean out unwanted things. Though I will be keeping most of it in just in case I feel like messing with this and that...
And once again great job on the Intersection modification.

Not really a new intersection, but wanted to show off the props for the underside of it.
i'm working on making up props for a bunch of the ramps and inclines so that i can make
up what i need at the moment. Hopelly soon i'll release them as a prop pack with a few
lots to show how to use them. Hope you like and let me know what you think. They are
kinda simple right now but that will change as i go. This is my first real attemp to make
something for SC4.

Ooh, there's one here on SC4D too? :D
Here's a high capacity interchange, with various pictures from pre-development to its current state :)
Original (actually, it was even less complicated originally, without the exits going north and south, just the two highways splitting)

&apls Great intersections. I've recently become more active building cities. inspired by dredgen and thundercrack? (have to recheck that name). Anyhoo, experimenting with all the new NAM stuff is loads of fun!?! I would like to see how players use the FLUP pieces creatively. i use them to go under PEGs canals... none of the bridges seem high/open enough to let large ships pass under. How does one cover up the transparent and custom texture FLUP lots. Mine won't allow trees, the new paintable textures or anything. Just sit there as blank spots in my city. I'll get some pics [rushing off to photobucket]

Yep, already driven it twice. The bends and interchanges lanes are really tight and short, if it's busy you really need to stop to give way to other traffic on the loops (which you can see at the images). :thumbsup: :-[

it's the crossing between the E313 and E314 in Lummen, originally it had traffic lights, but now it has very strange priority rules and very short slip lanes, the Flemish Region decided however to upgrade the interchange (and make it safer)

Wow that is a weaving nightmare. Did they really feel they would save money by only having the two bridges instead of four? The cost in cleaning up accidents would overtake that pretty fast.
We could build it if we can get a piece that turns 90 degrees (From 45 left of centre to 45 right of centre), whilst overpassing a 2 carriage-way RHW-4
Thats a mouthful!

The super overboard interchange I made. It was my first chance I had to mess with RHW 3.0 and March NAM :P I've updated it a bit since, but mainly just replacing some of the OWR with RHW-4 and MIS, nothing else.

It uses lots of space, but it's very customisable with exits and such.

Looks good, though you could have just kept the center road elevated and let the pond be under it, there are underbridge pieces for that pond set.

A unique and functional interchange between a RHW-2 and a RHW -4 (transforms into RHW-6S for the interchange though).
Maybe you had a purpose in mind, but is there a need for the two ramps that tunnel under the rhw 4? The main throughfare already deals with that traffic.

Quote from: Floydian on May 26, 2009, 06:49:44 PMThere isn't a need, but since the RHW-2 (which in this region is a freeway pretty much with only a few lights in some older cities) will eventually have a pretty good traffic load, they're there to avoid backups at the stoplight. The part that goes straight to the stoplight is meant to be more like an exit, but because of game limitations it doesn't really look like it. Anyways, sims should probably go through the tunnels if they're going through because the speed on MIS is a lot faster than on Maxis roads. Hope that makes sense :)

I drove on a thing like that (except the inside roundabout was much bigger) and it was horrible. Really there was too much traffic so as one mini roundabout got clogged the next one did and so on. Much easier just to have a normal roundabout and it takes less space, less white lines, and less signs there fore less money. There is no point in them and they have no advantages.
I'd get a map to show but I can't remember where exactly it was.

Yeah, maybe :P Can you recommend a good one that won't screw up stuff (like once I had one and I tried to rebuild part of a highway that was on a hill and I kept getting unsuitable grade when without the mod I could build it fine).

I'm not sure about the effectiveness or the efficiency of such a set-up, I'm not even sure if it's realistic (probably not).. but IMO it looks cool..
Now to develop the area around it.. hehe

wow thats a nice rail set up. It certainly looks fully functional. You mentioned realism--i think the only real thing would be to turn some of the transition spur lines into STR. The two loops caught my eye for this--unfortunately the one with the bridge would be impossible at the moment.

Accidentally! I'm doing some work on my wealth curves mod and discovered a side effect if a intersection is created just a little too close. I like the look , and it still functions correctly.

I really like that! How about getting rid of the stop lights facing the non-intersection side, to give them right of way? I've seen many roads that when they intersect, one gets priority. I like it

As I said...this is not supposed to happen! I'm altering the model files for the NAM curves , and in doing so this happens if an intersection is built too close to the end of the curve. Its not a new piece,just another alternative?

Terring7: Epic weaving! Not too bad for a rural area, but once you get a lot of traffic, that sort of setup gets REALLY dangerous REALLY quick.
Tarkus: That new piece looks like it'll be quite useful for unusual intersections... Not bad!
io_bg: Those are some great examples of RHW at its best. One suggestion I might add is to use Lot Editor to replace the Road props in Buddybud's road underpasses (road specifically) with a OWR underpass - that way it would work the same way, but match better with the Euro road mod. Great interchanges though!

I just need a constructive opinion on which looks better. :)
I prefer intersections of convenience, than again I love simplicity. But Neither photos below greet my preferrals.
So which do you prefer? (simple or clustered) And why? (I'm not changing the split GHWY)
(Simple)
Below is the simple intersection I like, but it provides inconvenience of not letting the Highway/Freeway travellers turn left on the Avenue. The avenue is going to consist of dense residential too.

(Clustered)
This photo is very convenient but messy, I have limited room to build. I don't like the layout - but the residents are going to use this intersection a lot. (Avenue centres residential peninsula).

original, I like the first one better. I don't like all the stoplights after the exit, The first one is best IMHO
Here's an 'intersection' I recently built to merge I-15 (shown in my MD) with the Byway in Ural City (south). It's like a T-Interchange, but the toll booths complicate things, plus the fact that the dual northbound exits (one for freight, one for civilian) make it harder.
An overview...( I havn't put in signs yet)

@CityMaster563: I think that one curve after going under the El-RHW and then to the left, is too sharp. It would have been better if it was just dragged to the left shortly after coming out from under the El-RHW to align straight to where it too turns into a El-RHW.
Also, I don't know if you corrected it since taking this picture, it would appear that part of this interchange deconverted to RHW2 at the top in between the curves. I have that highlighted in red in the attachment below. The good news is, without demolishing the curves, you should be able to just put a RHW4 starter piece there with no harm done.

That's a great idea! The only thing I would do is lengthen the acceleration / deceleration ramps on the south / bottom side of the picture - that's not a lot of distance to slow down or speed up from / to freeway speed.

The cloverleaf has been squeezed into a very small area. That's the reason why they use bridges. Usually, as far as I know, the circular ramps (cloverleaves) are laid down on ground ramps and not on bridges. And the outside curves (traffic turning tot the right) lie outside these cloverleaf curves.
In the object you show us here the curves are probably so narrow that there is a serious speed limit neccessary. Not too good!

Exactly my point. Usually the clovers lie in between the motorway and the right slip ramps, so you won't need any bridges (Maxis Highway Cloverleafs are made that way). Oh and by the way, the slopes of those clover ramps will be awfully steep!

How about, that slip lane on the diagonal reminds us what SC3000 used to allow? Glad someone else discovered that MIS ramps can connect to other networks without RHW, but for the same purpose.
I went crazy, and spent countless hours, rebuilding a intersection until traffic could flow. Very few of you, may even remember that one video I did, that was in this same area. At that time, where the road was on the right in the top picture, the same spot where that FLUPs was on, only allowed right turn only before. Now, the road crosses the RHW, and has been widened to 4 lanes for through traffic.

As you can see, in the final version, traffic is using it, no generators. Technical note, while that MIS ramp does not have a starter piece attached, making it 4 tiles, instead of five, this is only because of a bug. As of now, those pieces were not remade smaller, and require the transitions on either side of the ramp. Another thing, is I connected MIS ramps to avenues, because of space limitation. What you don't know, is I had to connect avenues to RHW without a transition, other wise none of what you see here could have been possible, because I built this interchange past the area where it could fit. Go ahead and try building what I did close to a boundary, with a curve like that, see what happens. The ramps connect at the last minute, RHW ramp pieces would not have fit on those sides.

OK, so I don't really go for interchanges, although I do kind of try to make roads that go onto an avenue at right angles...I will say one thing though...I absolutely Hate highways, as I can never get them to work too well, unless they're the only otion from A to B...my Sims are stupid. Anyway, I discovered this little gem that can be made with the new NAM, with the use of the highway to elevated road puzzle piece (I think it works for eleveated highways as well...) I don't know if this has been shown before, but here it is:
(https://www.sc4devotion.com/forums/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fi452.photobucket.com%2Falbums%2Fqq250%2FStrategist013%2FResidentia-Apr4001254251440.png&hash=e00120a1ddd83050c6e56d5fca61ec5c99cb0f01)
As you can see I'm making a ground highway to go from this city, City A to City B to City C, with a being res, B being com, and C being Industrial...This helps alot with demands, but I'm starting a new region to test this thoery so don't take my word for it :-[
The road on the left leads the sims back to the right, allowing them to go home ;D Yes, I know there aren't good distances for slowdown/speed ups onto the highway, but I think it would be perfect for dense urban areas. Also I think you could shorten it to cut out the two road puzzle pieces on either side, but it looks kinda ugly, and should be used only if you're desparate :)
EDIT:
I was working on how to improve this and came up with this:

An anti-clockwise one-way road allows people to get to both sides of the highway, and the roads lead people away normally as if there were no one-way
I also tried an avenue one, but messed up the one way over the highway, resulting in me having to demolish the entire thing, and I didn't feel like re-building :D
Also, I think that to create a smoother traffic flow/higher capacity/lower congestion, instead of using an intersection, rather create two roads that corner away from it, like an avenue, but not quite? How could I merge these into one road? Is there a puzzle piece out there? :p

Ok, Dragonshardz...I kinda understand you, then got lost at the one way road. The t-road on slope only has a slope ability at the straight road part - the t intersection lies on the flat ground. And what are you talking about when you say the one-way road roundabout?

With NAM you can lay a one-way road around in a 3x3 tile circle and it will automatically form a roundabout tha you can connect roads into. I like you intersection, gives me some good ideas with what to do in those instances... :)

Oh ja, that one. I used that quite a lot in some of my cities. But I still fail to see how this would help me here? And also, both interchanges work, but I think the road one is better, as it's more compact, and doesn't add too much time on their paths. The second one is what I thought the Europeans would do :P

True enough... Although in my oppinion you could make the second one better with the one-way by using the roundabout right at those two intersections. It basically cuts the traffic lights to keep the traffic flowing... That's the way I see it.
Ever try and put a Road roundabout in the first one near the avenue? That might be different... But it is the way I would go about it. :) Either way I still lke the looks of them.

Your interchange is very good, but I think this one will get you the smoother, faster traffic-flow you're looking for while reducing congestion.

In yours, there are 4 intersections: the two road T's and the OWR/Road +'s. + intersections get congested pretty quickly, but the Roundabouts (anti-clockwise, might I add) remove a total of 8 stop points, reducing congestion and making traffic flow smoother.
It also looks a bit cleaner.

@jackxu, another old style Maxis highway, almost looks like something you would see in Los Angeles, California.
@dragonshardz, if that is your picture below Strategist's, which version of the highway restyling mod was that? I had a texture variation something like that before, except with the Maxis textures, but with the wider shoulder, anyway, whatever that version is, I think the texturing was more eye appealing. I had been using cement instead of asphalt though, if that made a difference.

Just a practice run with the FARHW pieces. In the creation of this interchange, I realised that there were pieces missing... but perhaps in time for another release.

Be patient, my friend. There are still some thing that require some work, like making new textures for old pieces, make proper pathing for some new pieces (some of them still contain dummy paths) and make the mod as bug-free as possible. AFAIK, there is not even a release candidate for the RHW v4.0. So probablty it won't be ready before 1/1/2010, unless you want a bugged, unfinished mod.

Dexist, there is a way to make that more diagonal, but it appears you did not leave enough room to allow the diagonal road ramps from the roundabout, the other issue is, instead of RHW, because the pieces do not yet exist, you would have had to use diagonal OWR, but that can not drag it to the diagonal RHW, it involves rail over OWR, and rail over RHW, puzzle piece manipulation, which is too complicated and lengthy to explain here.
While I am here, I might as well post something, I know a bunch of SC4 players have wanted to see, red lights after the avenue intersection, and real American styled avenues.

See? After the intersection, the Maxis lights could, and did work on the second tile, provided the stop point on each side. I will have to video tape this later to prove my point. I did not notice cars stopping on the second tile, so long as they were commute generated traffic, and also, its the same intersection, and the light is usually timed the same length.
Also, in concept:

You may also notice in my pictures, streetlights on the sides of avenues, with trees in the middle. Someone requested that, Interstate80 provided, and they actually look like American avenue streetlights, the Maxis ones do not totally reflect that. Great idea, however the mod did not seem to go to the sc4 exchange sites. Until I got that mod recently, I do not think I have seen the avenue T to road draw with the traffic lights positioned that way before, but I can not back that up, all I know is, it does work.

Normally, I wouldn't do it this way, but I think its time more people saw that even Maxis signals can change red on the 2nd tile. Take this avenue x road for example.
http://www.youtube.com/v/w_EGeHNr8Io&fmt=37
Notice the cars do not stop in the middle of the intersection, the stop points are only before and after the intersection, not in between. I have no clue how these T21's ended up this way, but I have never noticed this intersection before. This is all dragged. Anyone else ever see this in game before?

@ReWout: Never seen anything like that done before, and its Maxis highway, and also looks like it took up a lot of room.
@mrtnrln:
FLEX FLY!
It also looks like that first picture that street used to go through, but has been interrupted by that highway. This drives me insane. Too many times that has happened in the U.S. and they don't have an overpass close by anymore! Some of these streets would go very far until they interrupt them with the highway. That rndinterchangejonderan looks like it took forever to build.

Yep, "Interchange Jonderan" is a full-blown Turbine interchange. It took me a few hours to build. And about the first picture: that's a bordercrossing between Imaginia (bottom) and the Bundesrepublik Schellingen (top).

That first interchange is amazingly compact.
Here's an attempt at a Diverging Diamond Interchange. I don't think I built it wrong, and I wanted to make this before the actual DDI puzzle piece got released. I'll add road signs later.

Here's a rough prototype of an interchange I'm currently working on. it's ultimately mean't to be a RWH-8 T interchange (left, right, and below) with RHW4 feeders into a central downtown area (above). I'll post more once I verify the image is available through the sc4devotion forums. This is very loosely based on a couple of interchange models I've had to navigate in the Houston, TX, US area. All the RHW's are currently RHW-4, as I don't believe there is currently a way to overpass larger RHW networks, and I haven't noticed MIS (single lane) interchanges in the type of intersections I'm trying to functionally replicate in the area. I'm also not yet utilizing the transition pieces to merge the RHW-4's into the projected RHW-8 highways.
Any and all suggestions as to how to enhance this are welcome!

FLEXFly stands for Flexible Flyover. It is a special system designed by Blue Lightning that uses "helper piece" technology to build elevated flyover ramps that RHWs can be dragged under. It's planned for inclusion in the next public RHW release (4.0).

FLEXFly stands for Flexible Flyover. It is a special system designed by Blue Lightning that uses "helper piece" technology to build elevated flyover ramps that RHWs can be dragged under. It's planned for inclusion in the next public RHW release (4.0).

Oh well holy $#!!. I was off to bed, but now I have something worth looking into. Guess I should be digging more into things before I try the impossible using the standard RHW tools. Not to say that y'alls work there isn't exemplary!

Agree with the above posts. FLEXFly will revolutionise my highways once its released.
Anyway, the remainder of my post is for emgmod.
I decided to make a Diverging Diamond Interchange myself, I'm not going to use it as part of my highway system (the city in question is going to be wholly rural).
Here's one version, In this photo I've used avenue approaches to the interchange.

I still don't get this Diverging Diamond Interchange thing.
It is meant to reduce the amount of time the traffic has to cross oncoming traffic. But I see no reduction, they have simply moved where the traffic crosses, and made it so more cars must cross the oncoming traffic.
Roundabouts on the other hand work without traffic lights and are much simpler.

Nice job ophiuchus14! The second one has to be my favorite! &apls
Simply put, roundabouts are much simpler and work better. Problem is that most American motorists get kinda scared and confused when they see them because they don't understand how they're supposed to work without something directing them (such as a traffic light instead of right of way). This might be a tad stereotypical, but that's at least one of the reasons why they aren't used more often.
The diverging diamond allows all turns to be made without crossing traffic in the other direction, making it more efficient. However its design may be confusing to some, and you still have those two intersections like a typical diamond. Difference here is that everything converses at these intersections so traffic flow is more even than a diamond.
Here in my part of southern Ontario, Canada, the local and provincial governments have been building more and more roundabouts over the years, yet I don't think they fully understand how they work yet. They put stop signs at each entry point to the traffic circle most of the time, which I think eliminates the purpose of roundabouts entirely. I guess they think drivers are too aggressive and won't let them in so they'd better stop and wait.
I don't think there's a single roundabout highway interchange in my province either, as pretty much 99% of them are parclos. It might seem bland, but they work well and when they're in that quantity, drivers know how to navigate them quite well.

I use roundabout interchanges frequently in my more populated centres. In New Zealand. There are two roundabout interchanges apiece in Auckland and Wellington with Christchurch set to have one built in the near future:

QuoteThe diverging diamond allows all turns to be made without crossing traffic in the other direction, making it more efficient.But they do cross traffic in the other direction at the ends of the diamonds. And isntead of only the traffic coming off/going on the highway crossing the traffic in the other direction all the cars must cross. Even those wanting to travel straight through the intersection on the Avenue.

@Jonathan, maybe we have gotten to greedy to put traffic lights up and pay the costs to maintain them, but yeah, main traffic still has to cross over, seems like roundabouts would work best instead of the intersection of switching sides. However, in comparison of roundabouts to diverging diamonds, it is arguable which are most inefficient, because I have seen avenue roundabouts get installed in the US but it seems Europeans just seem to go through this better, that eventually this one US avenue roundabout had to have stop signs on all eight sides, because the avenue roundabouts in my state allow you to go straight through in each lane, and left in the right lane, when the car on the left wants to go straight, and this seems you have more crossing traffic. However, I think for that concept to be sufficient would require roundabouts instead of the diamond, but using one roundabout seems easiest. However, it seems when you end an avenue at the highway, this would be the best way to go, intersections on the other hand is a different story. Its just after seeing too many people end up on the wrong sides of major avenues in my state as it is, my attitude has been altered on this diverging concept.

The main benefit of a DDI is that traffic wanting to make a left turn never has to sit and wait at a light. Also, through traffic moves through faster because the lack of left-turn light cycles means longer green times. Look up some videos on YouTube, they do a fantastic job of explaining them.

Similar, but I made some slight altering. The bottom picture is a pre-render from my memory, but when I went back to see the intersection in real life, I modified where the walk signals were hung. I wanted to get the signal positioning more accurate. However, shortly after making this intersection in game, it just so happens that these traffic lights were replaced in reality, they managed to save the poles, but the lights are like the first picture, except with black backs.
To customize your own avenue intersection real quick, take the SC4 dinosaur for a ride, then spin his tale around an avenue intersection, he then will remove all the existing avenue traffic lights, so you can replace them with your own models.

Ah frontage roads. The scar of bad freeway design - building them over an existing right of way and using frontage roads as a means of providing access to adjacent properties that the highway cut off, instead of building the highway along a new right of way that doesn't interrupt properties. They're nice and all... until the highway needs to be expanded.
And so I present the superior alternative to frontage roads, a collector-express system, complete with parclo A4.

Ah frontage roads. The scar of bad freeway design - building them over an existing right of way and using frontage roads as a means of providing access to adjacent properties that the highway cut off, instead of building the highway along a new right of way that doesn't interrupt properties. They're nice and all... until the highway needs to be expanded.
Actually, Texas (and some other states that have copied their design) built frontage roads to spur commercial development and have become such a popular institution in Texas that they can't fathom building an urban or suburban freeway without them.
Jackson, Mississippi did just that in the early 1950's (pre-Interstate highways) and the resulting commercial corridor has been the shopping heart of the city since the 1960's.

It was done here in Ontario on our first freeway, The Queen Elizabeth Way. It was built over the concession road around 1935. Ontario didn't have a law that allowed the government to restrict a property owner from constructing a driveway to a road until 1939. Since then, they built frontage roads to make the QEW a true freeway, and ribbon development/suburban spawl has consumed the entirety of the first 80 km (50mi) of the highway. The frontage roads have made it essentially impossible to widen the congested highways.

I agree: there are easier ways to merge reality into the SC4 models, but at this point I'm just experimenting with what's possible with the RHW.

That's really well done! I like the nicely curved loop ramps! That's not yet possible with the 1 lane MIS.
As far as frontage roads are concerned, they work well in some environments, but for the most part, I don't like them.

Is that why it's done that way in the southern area?
Regardless, this design philosopy is definitely the norm here in Texas, right or wrong. and definitely anywhere you see one of these intersections there are large commercial lots present.
Here's an example of where frontage roads are incorporated even though there is no transportational need to, other than as a philosophy of traffic flow. I'm definitely not eluding that any method is better than the other, just that this is the way it's done "down here."
Thanks to dragonshardz, here's a properly referenced link

While driving through the mainlanes of this, it's difficult to notice the complexity of the interchange. But once you see it from an arial view, you have to question the madness behind the method. Sure, one could argue planning for the future (this interchange will likely be congested within 10 years), but aren't there better ways to plan for the future?

I agree - nice interchange! Wish we had more like these in my area.
Re Frontage roads:
About half of the frontage roads I encounter in real life seem to offer a bit of relief to the traffic congestion: most of the merge traffic on major freeways is constrained to the frontage roads. In the other half I've experienced, some drivers use the superfluous and otherwise mostly unused frontage roads as a way to bypass some rush-hour traffic and gain a few minutes of travel time over the other drivers, adding to congestion where the frontage roads merge again with the primary traffic.
RE Houston: I also agree that the use of frontage roads encourages sprawl, but I don't think they're necessarily the cause of it, but a result of it - at least in the case of Houston. Since there is so much unpopulated land available surrounding the Houston area, many people would rather buy land further out than spend many more times as much for property closer to the city center. If you could buy a house 10 miles further out for less than a third of the cost of a property closer in, would you? Especially if proper transportation were available that would make it economical for you to do so? In my opinion, It would be better to provide reasonable mass-transit to the more remote communities, but so far that's not an option 'round here.

Hi all, time we moved away from highways to something a little more surface-street based.
These interchanges I'm about to show you are completely mad, but could be used to add a little spice to those MDs or CJs.
They all stem from this: the magic roundabout, made by putting 4 road roundabouts together:

That's nice and all, but what if traffic is too heavy for it?
Then it's time to expand to a Double Magic Roundabout.

It probably is confusing, but it could be efficient too. Look at the magic roundabouts in Swindon and Hemel Hempstead (both in England), for instance.

Yep, that's a half-cloverleaf. Not the best 3-way junction due to the amount of land it consumes and the weaving that occurs.
-However, they can easily be easily upgraded to a 4-way junction by extending the route that ends farther, making them useful for expanding areas.
Here's my example of a simple trumpet interchange. It is normally better suited for 3-way junctions. Click the RHW interchange guide link my signature to see how to build it and more complex trumpet interchanges.

zakuten:
Are you referring to the frontage roads where they near the intersection with the avenue? Those are actually transitions from RHW4 frontage implementations to one-way roads (along with the u-turns) unless I'm missing something, and I made these transitions in order to implement proper lighted intersections with the avenue. I've contemplated back and forth on whether to use one-way roads or RHW4 for the frontage roads, but currently have settled on RHW4 since the MIS ramps connect to RHW's, and many of the frontage roads in my area have a speed limit of 45 MPH or more. I'm ok with the transition to one-way roads for now, as the traffic should have to slow down as it approaches the intersections anyway.

More RHW x RHW interchange madness. I'm anxiously awaiting the next version in hopes that better interchanges can be created, especially flexfly.

Ah! Seeing all you guys highways is driving me crazy! You do know the current RHW allows full function car traffic connection for 4, 6s, 6c, and 8 right? You don't need to use loop connections, or even the Maxis highways . Please refer to my last post in the NAM video tutorials section of the forum.
Fafalone, out of what you showed us, I like the airport junction the best, there will be more curved ramp options in the future, but even then, your last one will need more room for that.

The first ground tile of the MIS to EMIS transition ramp. In the current version you can't build an EMIS over it.
Also, diag to ortho MIS split.

Hehe . . . I hadn't included the textures and had actually forgotten about the EMIS going over the MIS at the base of that Ground-to-Elevated transition . . . so really, we're at 6 features here.
Nope, that's actually just the RHW-2/Dual MIS Splitter that's been there since Version 2.0, and it's connected right into to a Road/RHW-2 transition. It looks like there's a Road coming right out of it probably because the Road/RHW-2 transition blends better with the new textures.
So there's one left . . . and it's very, very well disguised. ;)

It seems to me that they've broadened a bit. The MIS splitter also looks as it's been modified (smoother curves).

Delta,
Something seems amiss about this intersection. If you cross the highway you switch sides of the road. Suddenly you are changing from LHD to RHD or vice versa depending on which version you are using (Left Hand Drive or Right Hand Drive). So unless this is the border of two countries that have different systems, There is gonna be one hellava wreck.

-El-MIS smooth curve (flexfly, haljackey called it that way)
-The straight MIS connecting to diagonal MIS (by the soundbarrier)
- There is the transition from ground MIS to elevated MIS in the center. Where the elevated MIS (that comes from the EL-MIS smooth curve) going over the first part of the starting piece called Ground MIS to Elevated Transition ON. That i coudn't get working in 3.0.
Is that it Tarkes?? Am I right? ()what()

I'm a lifelong SC player, but it's my first time posting a picture. I have saved quite a few that I'm proud of. I wasn't intending to share this as you can tell from the ungrown zones by the roundabout. This intersection is in one of my larger cities. Massive low density residential developments on the other side of the river created hoards of commuters that had to drive significantly upstream to find a crossing. Fortunately the subway and some GLR park and rides got a portion of them mobilized using mass transit, however the need for a bridge remained. Development was right up the coast in the downtown area, so this bridge crosses directly above my central business district and the whole roundabout mess was my way of tying this mess together in a way that enabled continuous flow of traffic. Yes, it was somewhat inspired by Swindon's magic roundabout.

Here is another of my strange ring junctions. Basically this area is becoming the divider between the high density seaside to the south and the suburban area to the north. There is a lot of north. I know bridges are expensive so I wanted to consolidate all of the small streets and side roads before crossing the RHW4 in the image. I draw my inspirations partially from the hours of staring at England on Google maps :D.

Gosh, look at the slopes at the left! I bet no car will ever get up those slopes. Try to use a slope mod.
Slopes are my weakness. I am using a slope mod, but I could not form a connection using the slope mod. The bridge just sits so much higher than the rest of the area, so I had to temporarily remove the slope mod to make those connections, otherwise all my bridges drag red. I suppose I could accept your challenge and build some switchbacks leading up to the bridges. That might be a fun project for a boring afternoon. But first I want to build a small light rail centered community. I went to a public meeting today for Colorado Springs' planned streetcar line, and I am all hyped up about it :) To be 100% honest, I thought SC3000's treatment of slopes was easier than that of SC4, even though everything else in SC4 is better. Can you build tunnels under a river in SC4? I think my city is populated enough to afford this kind of massive public works project.

Not bad on the routing. Have you tried implementing this substituting 1-way roads with RHW overpasses and throughout, at least on the mainlanes, and got it to work?

@cwhtly Good use of express lanes. I wish I had the patience to wrangle the RHW into compliance like you.
@jdenm8 I like the soundwalls. They add so much to the game when used on arterials, expressways and freeways. I'm also glad to see the GLR connection and parking lot for the airport.

Any chance of sharing where those awesome power lines came from? They look like they replace the game default rather than being the kind that go on flat ground only. I have a few nice terraformed expressways through foothills to post up soon.

I posted this in the RHW thread, but may as well post it here since it is an intersection.
Here's a video of a new RHW 4.0 interchange. Its a two level hybrid of turbine and windmill designs I think. I tried to use as few overpasses as possible to emphasize the versatility of FLEXfly, a new addition in RHW 4.0 that lets you curve a el-MIS network 90 degrees over ground networks.

Thanks for liking my interchanges Ryan. :)
Actually, I already made several interchanges with smooth curves in the past. Some of them were even made with RHW 2.x. As people normally tend to complain about the RHW interchanges taking too much place, I started to make them more compact while still trying to keep them look good. When RHW4 is out, I probably will redraw some of my creations to include the then available smooth curves.
Here are some older creations of mine. Sorry if there should be some which I already showed before. Several of them were made with RHW 2.x and never modified, so they might consist of some old techniques which aren't needed anymore. They aren't plain RHW either because of the limits which then existed.
RHW 2.x interchanges:

These are about the most spread out interchanges (for their complexity) that I could find in my archives. Hope you like them. ;)
edit:
Quote from: SeanSC4 on May 06, 2010, 07:08:59 AMDo you refer to my pictures? The tunnels there are either One-way or Avenue tunnels which I connected to the RHW network. It isn't possible to make working RHW tunnels.
Wait a sec. Did you guys get RHW working with tunnels?

If you have ever driven in Hawaii or played Test Drive Unlimited, you should remember this interchange near Aloha Stadium. Mostly because you got lost in it. I've completed 99% of it.

While the previous interchanges are original, as always, Io_bg's is a first
:thumbsup: Oh yeah. This one makes a good first impression for that. It looks like it could be real, but I have never seen a setup like this before. The most eye popping part is the exit ramp flexing over the highway to the opposite side where it merges to the parallel road and directly at the crossing. This is a prime example of what can be accomplished with the new networks. In your face EA games! Glad you pulled this off all on your own. I am sure plenty more of you will follow suit and come up with a lot more interesting NWM related creations now. Io_bg did. How long did this take to build anyway?

Awesome! This one's worth quoting over to the next page. :P
If you made the outer ramps just a bit longer you could add some FlexFlys in there, making the 90 degree MIS curves smoother.
Now that RHW 4.0's out I may as well post this here:
Due to the huge level of feedback I recieved from my last highway interchange video, I decided to make another one.
This one is a three level cloverstack-like interchange, and one of my most complex to date. Unlike my last junction, FlexFly is not used at all, the emphasis is put on the new type "D" ramps and elevated networks that can now overpass diagonal RHWs below. The only part that is not RHW is the tunnel, which is an avenue.

EPIC WIN. I had to say that. However, driving on these in RL, thats another story, you either got it, or you don't, and when you don't, prepare to get hit. I'm talking about the 10 lanes of traffic. However, nothing says you can not turn both directions on the intersection, considering you can easily miss your turn.

Wow. I'm floored by these interchanges. It's amazing the amount of versatility that RHW 4.0 has over its predecessor. The NAM Team have definitely outdone themselves. &apls
I might as well contribute. Below is a T-interchange that I've overhauled with the new release. I don't have a picture of it pre-4.0, but one direction of traffic was virtually impossible without taking up too much space unnecessarily. With the advent of Flexfly and the diagonal-ortho overpass puzzle pieces, though, it's now feasible. (The pictures are kinda large, so click them for full size.)

A basket-wave allows traffic to change between express and collector lanes in case of a multi-RHW.
And that parclo/diamond looks quite nice.

It ain't no FLEXFly, but I have a basketweave. Hopefully before Haljackey made one. Click for full size.
Now you just need to make each carriageway three lanes instead of two, and you're pretty close to the real thing.

404: looks good, but what's the point of the tunnel? The RHW already overpasses the DDI? ()what()

I plan to show how to make one in my interchange guide sometime as well... should be a lot easier to make now that RHW 4.0 is here.
Nice work on that interchange too. I like the use of the MIS curves.

Here's my take on the basketweave.
This is a mix between the actual thing and the one emgmod made. It has a 14 lane cross-section and retains this span throughout the interchange. (No through lanes end)
I hate left entrances and exits. They can get confusing and are not as safe as right entrances and exits. I tried to get rid of them, but doing so would make the interchange a massive size, so I made a compromise. Each direction has one left exit (instead of two) and I allowed two lanes to initially use the exit instead of one to help minimize confusion.
In addition, I tried to make it as compact as I could while still retaining smooth curves. The collector lanes are right next to the express lanes (0 tile gap), and overpass one of the transfers (this does not happen in RL) because rerouting it to the right would both take up more space and create left entrances. Because of this, you could say this is a more modern design of the basketweave.
I made a mosaic of it. Click on it for full size, 1920x4336!

I've got a couple today that I've upgraded to 4.0:
The first is what was an oddly shaped T junction between H-1 (horizontal) and H-80 (pointing up). FlexFLY makes it nice and smooth. The only problem is I can't build it this way without either A) having a hole in the right FlexFLY; or B) leaving the backhoe tile in place, as I did. It's a small price to pay for a smooth and very compact interchange.

The second is a before and after shot of one of my favourites (though built in an area I have not decorated well), the interchange between H-84 (the through highway) and H-101. The main interchange was built with 3.0, but the new upgrade allowed for some significant improvements to weaving and merging issues.

You can also use Hypercam. I use the unregistered, but free version of the program to record my videos. I used Fraps before, but that program causes my computer to Bootcrashes (computers crashes completly all of a sudden and restarts).
Odd, I don't have that problem.
I like using Fraps because it also lets you record in HD, something Hypercam or other free screen capturing programs do not do.

This morning I've been revamping an older interchange in my region... Click for full size (1680x1760 px)!
Cool, I like the use of the new type-D ramps! Looks kind of odd that the other sides doen't use them, however.
Those yellow light poles give the route a unique look, something I haven't seen before. Well done! :thumbsup:

New interchange I just built. It connects two virtually parallel highways.
That's an interesting take on connecting parallel RHWs after looking at the basketweave pics on the last page. Nice work!
Quote from: Cracks on May 14, 2010, 06:22:00 AM
I assume picture size is 800x600?
Nope, 1024 is the maximum width of pictures here, with no (real) length limit. This allows for mosaics to easily be posted here rather than chopping it up into segments on other sites.
Nice junctions by the way!

Interesting take on the basketweave exchange. I like how you took advantage of the RHW-6S' new one tile width by putting a MIS right next to it. That makes it compact while still looking realistic.
That last pic is just insane.... Do you have a zoomed out version of it so we can see where everything connects?

Hi everyone. I think it's about time I posted in this thread. I love the RHW and it is the #1 reason I love playing SC4. I think I have some pretty decent interchanges made, but I have only scratched the surface of the features in RHW 4. I warn you, though, I am a fan of "cheating" with the on-slope pieces in order to save precious space. To make up for it my city invests in many "steep grade" road signs. ::) :D So here are a few of my creations:
(Don't worry about the hotlinked images... I'm paying for the server they're on)
Here's one with the new RHW-6C exit piece. And a cameo by the MAVE-6, heh. (And evidently a texture error on the right.)
(https://www.sc4devotion.com/forums/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Flucydotd.com%2Frhw%2Frhw01.png&hash=b5d6db652eae0f000369a72e16fa5739b4173dde)
My favorite RHW is the 6C, because it is only three tiles wide (instead of four) and has a pretty significant capacity. Now since the draggable-curve RHW-6C was released, using it in my cities is even more convenient. Here we have a sorta-parclo-thing:

Finally, I had to try an interchange with the wonderful FlexFly piece. I love all the new ways that the MIS can connect with itself.

Looks like you have room in a lot of your junctions to plop those three tile ground-raised transitions. In an ascetic thread like show us your intersections, it would definitely add a lot to your creations. The junctions themselves look pretty good regardless, however.

Umm... well I don't think so. The fact that you made a full RHW-RHW junction tells me you don't "suck" at all. With more trial and error I'm sure you will be able to produce some wonderful creations!

My first real try at an intersection with the RHW :)
Looks good, but I would suggest if you're using smooth curves, use them for all your curves. When they are use selectively it kind of looks odd. In addition, one of your overpasses could be converted to RHW-4, and your type "A" ramp could be converted to type "C" because I see an additional lane beginning at the bottom of the picture.
Great work everyone! Keep it up! :thumbsup:

Caspervg, this almost is like a triple decker. I don't know if you care about function vs comsetics but a hole dug Maxis avenue dragged tunnel would allow connection. Then again, those do look more real then Maxis' tunnel style.
Also, I noticed a lot of you guys tried various ways to connect your RHW's to the end of the map, but unless you want full on car commute RHW connection without loopholes and without substitution networks, you will need to see how in these 2 videos:

Well, in this case the functionality of the avenue tunnel wasn't a real issue, because traffic can still use the roundabout to get to the other side, but yeah, you are right, a hole dug Maxis tunnel would allow a proper connection. ()stsfd()

You could make that functional by using the starterless MIS ramps and also moving the bottom RHW-4 <> MIS Type A ramp backwards a bit.
Then you could fit the FLUPs in.

Looks like you have room in a lot of your junctions to plop those three tile ground-raised transitions. In an ascetic thread like show us your intersections, it would definitely add a lot to your creations. The junctions themselves look pretty good regardless, however.

Interesting take on the basketweave exchange. I like how you took advantage of the RHW-6S' new one tile width by putting a MIS right next to it. That makes it compact while still looking realistic.
That last pic is just insane.... Do you have a zoomed out version of it so we can see where everything connects?

As I said before, this has been done entirely with RHW 3.24 (I haven't it updated yet). It's a fictional concept, where two highways with a collector-distributor system cross each other. Both, the express and collectors have their own full interchange. Basically, it's a turbine built into a roundaobout interchange. The straight directions allow for changing from the express to the collector highways. In the east, the collectors and the center highway each split. And to round it all up, I threw in some connector stubs for later joining with the local traffic network. As always, I tried to minimize weaving, especially in the center highway. I just hope that this won't ever be built in real life.
Have fun, drive safely and don't take any wrong turns, you have been warned. :D

I don't think that's a T-bone there. The three-way ground/elevated highway interchange resembles this a little more accurately.
To make the interchange more compact and contain less curves, I would suggest the use of a diagonal el-RHW 4. The highway heading westbound makes an insane amount of turns, and by elevating it and dragging it across the other routes would make it more direct. There are puzzle pieces that allow you to make a el-RHW-4 overpass RHW-4 and MIS networks diagonally in RHW 4.0.

Not bad! Kind of reminds me of an intersection not too far from where I live. The ending road at a three-way intersection widens from two to three lanes to allow dedicated right and left turn lanes.

Some intersection from my little city. This road can be upgrade to a highway.
Wow, awesome! I like the use of the ave-2 there and the room you left for highway expansion. Very realistic! :thumbsup:

I'm really digging the diagonal puzzle pieces and filler pieces. My interchanges still suck, but I'm able to suckify them in much more interesting ways.
Hey, you're getting better. Practice makes perfect. The RHW mod requires a lot of trial and error in order to "tame" it.
Your junctions are good, but I have to question the ramp that turns 540 degrees before reaching the other RHW in your last pic. If only you built the junction one extra tile away from the edge of the city you could just build a simple flyover like your other connection. :P

A (very compact) mix of stack and windmill elements. This one currently is one of my most compact full 4-way interchanges I managed to build.
Geesh, that windmill thing is tight! What's more is despite it's compactness, you still somehow implemented smooth curves! Nice job! :thumbsup:
As for those other junctions, they're crazy. Although that may be because I've never seen a parallel full highway junction in RL.

lol, you copycats. ::) :P
Here's an older junction I made with RHW 1.3a. It connects to an elevated highway. Back in those days, the MIS did not exist, so you had to improvise with OWRs and other junctions to create rather obscure highway-highway interchanges like this one:

Not exactly the easiest to use things in the world; these took hours. I suppose things will go quicker in time, if the reverting doesn't make me wipe the game off my disk first.
These are the most beautiful interchanges ever. How does one make those nice curves? I have the latest RHW but can't find that puzzle piece, or I have to drag it across? How does it work?

That's the FLEXFly piece--it's located at the end of the RHW Curves TAB Loop--if you hit Shift-TAB after clicking the button, it'll take you right to it.

Well, I'm a person who likes to keep the highways realistic somewhat - as in, proper merge and exit lanes, not spacing my interchanges close together etc. So, when I had one wing of my ring road close to a major route thru the city, both had to be interchanged, and being so close together, this is what you get:

Once the ability to do a rhw-2 diagonal ramp comes along... that one really humongous loop will be shrunk down.

There's also a 90 degree ground MIS piece in the same menu, though it is closer to the beginning (between the RHW2 and RHW6 stuff I believe)
Can the flexfly piece only curve to the left? Is it not possible to have the yellow line on the outside of the curve?

And, this is King's Highway at the DDI for Bishops Row which traverses the entire city. Also intersecting here are the Queen's Cross (heavy freight/passenger rail that covers the entire region) and the Red and Green Monorail Lines. The trimmings for these intersections aren't complete, but the groundwork is laid.

I dunno... If you elevated or sank your west-to-south connection you could make the interchange much smaller and avoid all those curves.
Example:
-I whited out the rest of the image only because you did. :P

Tried to replicate io_bg's "Bulgarian Windmill-stack" (well, thats how I call it). Not as fancy as io_bg's (especially because the FlexFLY acts weird on the westside), but I achieved to make one:

Whoa, very nice junctions everyone! I'm impressed!
MOREOPTIONS: I would suggest curving your roads a bit to make them look a little more realistic. Simply going from 90 to two 45 degree turns will make a world of a difference!
Also, a request to a moderator/admin: could the pictures in the sticky post be removed?

I honestly am surprised whoever is hosting those pictures, did not take them down. It has been over 3 years since those have been up, and you look at what we can do now, and you realize how much things have changed. However, there are certain instances for me where I still have to use original OWR at intersections, its a fast way to simulate double right turn lanes, not to mention compacting SPUI's so they are not as big, especially if you want to have a fast way to make a right turn onto the avenue.
EDIT: They finally are gone after 3 years.

Now,...
As much as I like the RHW Mod, I can't just sit here not showing what I'm able to create out of it...
Now, out of research and development (MY personal RnD for interchanges), a DDI... With more realism. And in the corner is the game default's Diamond Interchange.
Immense, huh...?

First attempt at an intersection with the new rhw 4.0 and this is what I came up with. The shape was not planned, just the way it turned out. I also have no idea what to call it either :P

blade2k5, I think I'd call that a dumbbell-ized diamond interchange, since the MIS roads form almost a dumbbell shape...
It'd probably look smoother with B ramps instead of A ramps, but that's just my suggestion...

Nice that you're trying to make signs, but I have a few points of critic:
- Simplicity is good. Try to make your sign as simple as possible. Lane setups is something for portal sings, not fork signs.
- The route number and the exit number have strange shields.
- Which font did you use? Probably not a sign font. Use DIN1451, Transport, Highway Gothic, Clearview or SNV.
- The alignment of the sign is ugly. With proper alignment, the sign can be a lot smaller.
As an example, here's what I would have made your sign:
