RHW (RealHighway) - Development and Support

[Patricius Maximus]

@Tarkus: A month ago? We can barely guess what progress you've made since then. It's fun to speculate 

I think the textures are a little off, but SA is going to release a new version of his textures concurrently with v21, so I don't think that'll be a problem 

In short, FANTASTIC work you're doing  . I'll be preparing for a new generation of monster highways

Those aren't bad! The RHW-6C looks pretty realistic, particularly that weird shoulder thing in between the lanes.

I-81 near Christiansburg, VA has some collector/express lanes, and they left lots of room for future lane expansion when they built it - it's basically four single-sided RHW-4s, with the express lanes having plenty of room on the pavement to be 3 or 4 lanes per side, but the collector lanes are pretty much stuck at 2 lanes.

RHW-8, oh I cant wait for that. I'm building my sunken highways with a few extra tiles in preparation for that release

I have an idea for Dual 8 lane RHW (RHW 4 side by side). What about a puzzle piece that allows the transferring traffic from one set to the set next to it?

[j-dub]

A fast transfer? I think that may have been shown and requested already.

[deathtopumpkins]

That's already been confirmed for one of the future versions. It is a much needed piece though.

[el_cozu]

you mean like a left sided exit?...

if you are in a fontage road or local lanes for a RHW... have an exit on the left side so you can actually get into the main lanes?

[gn_leugim]

awesome 

[deion30296]

Yes. Exactly what I mean, here in Atlanta we have left side exits for the right side of the road. The road splits up and the ramp goes over the Southbound side and ends on an embankment and then goes to the MARTA station. That MARTA station was built for the highway and the highway only.

Also, The fast transfers would be needed for highways like the 8 lane highway in Borealine County that's coming to the SC Community soon.

Wow, a pic of the El-RHW 

Can you do something about this transition (you see the HRS mod on the right with SA textures, thats just maxit highway)

Three nice pictures of the RHW and elevated RHW there, Tarkus!

[Toichus Maximus]

The RHW6 is two tiles wide, though. It'd need a special puzzle piece and not just texture overrides, if it could be done at all. (At least, that's how I understand it).

Yes, that's exactly the issue.  Unfortunately, there's not really any convenient way to do it draggable and still have it be stable. 

While I'm at it . . . how about another month-old pic?

This shows that the El-RHW is separable, just like the ground one.

Beautiful. Will it  be compatible with other textures?

Indeed it will.  You'll be able to use Shadow Assassin's or any others out there.  It's also possible to change the texture on the supports as well.

Now that's cool. You guys have really brought up the bar!

[godjcjk12]

nice job Tarkus. can't wait for the new RHW. will their be wider EL-RHW?

[deion30296]

It should be. The NAM Team always thinks of things ahead.
