The RTMT V3 Support Thread

[z]

If you first installed SimGoober's bus stops, and then installed RTMT, and then if you removed the copy of SimGoober's models from the RTMT Models folder, thinking that they were duplicates, or if you removed the original SimGoober models for the same reason, this could result in the symptoms you describe.  Similarly, copying the files from one place to another could cause problems.  RTMT needs to have its own copies of these models, specifically the ones provided in RTMT v3.60.  Although the names are the same as with SimGoober's models, the contents differ slightly in that the RTMT models don't also have a prop exemplar included in them.

Do you have all twenty bus stop models from SimGoober in the RTMT Models folder?  Are these the ones obtained from RTMT v3.60?  And do you still have your original SimGoober models in the SimGoober bus stops folder?

I'm not sure if this problem is due to the RTMT or not, but it occurs when the Tram-in-Road stations. I'm trying to build a tram network in one of my cities using a combination of Tram-Avenue, Tram-in-Road, and standard GLR, as well as using stations for all three of thse networks. After a few months, the game crashes, every time, and it's starting to become frustrating. Now I've heard that you have to activate the stations by dragging road or OWR through it, but I've done that with all my stations and it hasn't worked, the game still crashes. Is there something I need for them to work without crashing?

Any help would be appreciated.

There is nothing in RTMT that would explain your problem.  It is most likely caused by some other plugin, though I don't know which.

In support and confirmation of the previous post, I can say that I have been implementing all varieties of trams in some cities: tram-in-avenue, tram-in-road, tram-on-road, tram-on-street, GLR on its own right-of-way, with all types of stations that can be installed on those types of tram tracks, as well as most of the crossings, junctions, loops, transitions to subway, etc, that are available. In my largest cities this means tram networks of considerable size, which also enjoy a high level of utilization. It has never caused any crash of the game. RTMT, in my experience, is very solid and reliable.

Hi harryloko20

The RTMT comes with a MML plugin "RTMTV3__MML.dat" which will hide all the stations until you plop the MML lot itself (looks like a repair yard in-game) then you will see all the stations, check your plugins to see if you have it and remove, if that's not your problem then please let me know and we will figure out what's wrong

Hi harryloko20

You may find it easier to install using the ZIP Version  http://sc4devotion.com/csxlex/lex_filedesc.php?lotGET=1058  you also need these dependencies for the models and SAM

and we also have the following add-ons

RTMT GLR Transitions  http://sc4devotion.com/csxlex/lex_filedesc.php?lotGET=2248

you have already downloaded most of this stuff, as to the DAMN this is optional and I would recommend getting the RTMT working first before installing it, its also something I don't use so I will have to get one of the other RTMT Team members to talk you thru getting it running.

Hello,

I'm using RTMT with last update v3.60 and I like it a lot. However I noticed a small texture problem with El rail over road stations... The El rail bit over the station has a different texture compared to doubledecker pieces or classic el rail

Is there any further release that will correct this cosmetic bug? For info I use latest NAM (r30) + hotfix.

Also,

I have another question concerning customosable features

I've read extensively the readme enclosed with 3.50 but can't figure out where to find the model (or is it the prop?) to get the phonebooth with nightlightings (goes along with Porkie props) and yellow bus sign (raphalninja)



I have the listed dependencies but there is something missing, I searched in the prop families and single props but no luck

Anyone can help? Thanks,

Cheers

Could you possibly post a picture of the difference you're seeing? If you mean the slight color difference, that could be due to trying to match the station model to the NAM pieces. I'm not up on the technical aspects of the process, but I understand it can be difficult.

If you're sure you have all the dependencies, you may need to check if the correct prop files are in the Prop folder. If you want the Paris phone booth (the one requiring Porkies props), you should have a file in the Prop folder named RTMTV3_Prop_PhoneBooth_Paris. All other files named RTMTV3_Prop_PhoneBooth_*** should be removed. Likewise with the Ninja bus sign. There should be a file named RTMTV3_Prop_BusSign_Ninja, and all other files with the name RTMTV3_Prop_BusSign_*** removed.

If you used the installer version of 3.50, these files may not have been included. You'll need to get the manual version and copy the files into your folder structure.

Hope this helps...

[Magneto]

Sure! Here it is



As you can see nothing dramatic but because of that visual difference I barely ever use the said stations

Ah, that's why I never saw those files 

Thanks for the link Captain! Yyour help is appreciated

...As you can see nothing dramatic but because of that visual difference I barely ever use the said stations  ...

Have you installed the z_RTMT folder, it contains a file called GizmoFix.dat, which should have fixed this problem, if you have the file installed, then we need to take another look at things and see what might be causing this to happen.

[Magneto]

Huh I totally overlooked that file, now it's installed but it doesn't change anything? I tried in RTMT folder and in plugins folder...

A mod conflict maybe? Anyways thanks for your reply Catty,

Cheers

PS nice avatar!

Do you, by chance run the game on "Low" graphics. I noticed you were using the euro textures, so I loaded my set up, but did not notice the same difference. However, running the game with the graphics set to "Low" did.

[Magneto]

I got everything selected on low settings bar the 2 last graphic options in the menu (texture quality and visual details I think) which are on medium setting.

[CaptCity]

It appears the the Texture setting needs to be on "High" for the ElRail-over-Road pieces to match the station track. This can be changed while running the game, but you'll need to do a standard "Save" (no need to exit) for the change to take effect.
