Alex:



Thank you for being both an exceptional student of 3RR's backstory and doing your duty as a 3RR Fact Checker.

Back to the pixel mines.

haha, you know the narrow wide radius curves the 2x2 90 degree job, will we ever see those for other networks? anyway query aside, bravo.
NAM + CAM + RAM + SAM, that's how I roll....

I love the tyre marks...reminds me on the country town I grew up in. Still, its so true in most areas one lives - especially in highly condensed areas.

Anyways, good to see you back david. all the best.

QuoteBack to the pixel mines.

Now this just made my day, David. Some wonderful modding work from one of the funniest guys I know. Anyway, your progress on the RealRoads is really stunning, I hope that ther can be released soon.

One question, are they going to be an override of the regular maxis roads, or a completely new network?

I had a bit of time this morning, so I thought I'd get started on the diagonal RealRoads intersection.



Here's a tiny part of the folder that the textures are being saved to.



I should have another in progress pic before I leave.

Yep.  A canceled appointment left me with some additional time.



















Here's the two textures I get out of this- the rest of the intersection is just flips and mirrors.





It's easy, from here, to create related intersections.





That's all, folks!  Later.

These textures are all coming together beautifully!

If, by pixel mines, you mean gold mines, David!

Excellent work, my friend! It's always great to see action here in 3RR!

Take care!

Diagonals always get my attention, and these are certainly no exception.  Keep up the good work, David!

These textures are looking really nice! Great work, David! :thumbsup: ;)

Wow, these roads are looking fantastic David!

The shoulders have to be the best part!

Here the in-game result of the texture work we did yesterday.

1.  Drag a diagonal RealRoad over an already placed one.



2.  Wait through the usual construction.



3.  And there you are.



Here's that pic without the grid.



Unlike the current default roads, the RealRoad diagonal crossroads is an exact duplicate of the ortho crossroads.



I'm glad that there's a way to fit this project into the context of the NAM.  The pics here don't do justice to how good it looks in the game.

Later.

You know David....I think your day has more hours than mine does.
You have to tell me how you do it.  I could really use a few more hours.
Great work, you never seize to amaze.

Here's a head-to-head comparison of the RealRoad diagonal intersection with the game default diagonal intersection.

I'm over half done with the basic textures.  If you are interested in being in on "alpha" testing, I guess the time to speak up is pretty much now.

I'm stunned! Great work David!  :thumbsup:

I can't wait to try the textures out. However, I think I'll wait until the final release since I use European textures.  ;)

I'll try them out :thumbsup:!
