RHW (RealHighway) - Development and Support

[Jonathan]

Wow that's big I never realised it was that big!

Something tells me that this will be even more modular than I thought, like there will be a starter piece for ...

...Adding lanes in the middle so we can make as big a highways as possible?? I wish there was, imagine RHW-20 and 30, ouch.

I think that with it modular you can have left-hand exits.


Great Job as usual!!!!!!!!   You have been quite busy!

@ Warrior: That's what I was trying to say - with separate starter pieces for the outer shoulders and the inner lanes and the ramp interfaces and all that...

[Jonathan]

@nerdly-dood: I only thought of how to say that after you posted, I guess great minds think alike

RHW-10! Yay! 

[Streetlight 725]

RHW 10!!  
If you have a big city,It would be great!I think NYC have a 10 lane highway.5 on each side.I-95
Heres a map.

It looks like a RHW 10 Lane too.

OMG WOW just simply to put it here thats just nut's Alex!!!! RHW 10 who would of dunk it??

[bakerton]

Streetlight725, I counted the lanes and I get 4 on each direction. 8 total. I bet you were counting the excel/ decel lanes for exits. I counted an area away from those exit lanes. Alex, RHW 10, you are really insane, but a genius. JKB

[nerdly_dood]

Umm, nope, that's 5 in each direction, 10 total, there are no accel/decel lanes...

[Streetlight 725]

Is there 4 lanes or 5 lanes?

[sincitybaby]

I believe Bakerton was referring to the link Streetlight 725 posted

I counted and on the link there is indeed only four lanes in either direction.

[nerdly_dood]

OH okay now i know what we're all talking about (at least until someone who hasn't seen it yet finds Tarkus' post on page 148)

[Haljackey]

Ah, so the RHW-10 is only 2 tiles wide?  That will easily replace the multi RHW-8s in my cities, being 2 tiles wide themselves.  An instant boost!

Great work (as always)!  Is the RHW-10 planned for the next release?

Best,
-Haljackey

[nerdly_dood]

I'd consider it 4 tiles wide, without a separating tile for a median, so that's 2 tiles per direction, I'd say. RHW-4 is my idea of 2 tiles wide.

nerdly: LOL, are you reading "how to be pedantic?" hehehe

your logic does make sense, but it sounds like argument for argument sake, as most people could interpret it either way

but w/e, ontopic: the rhw10 looks awesome, thanks Alex

Maybe.

Glad to hear you guys like it.  More coming shortly . . .

...Adding lanes in the middle so we can make as big a highways as possible?? I wish there was, imagine RHW-20 and 30, ouch.

That reminds me of a prototype texture I did a way long time ago, when I first got involved with the project, which I believe only two people have seen.



That's an RHW-26, in case you were wondering.  And no, it will not be in RHW Version 21.    (Or 22 or 23, or probably any other after that.)

More coming shortly . . .

Good, good....

[JoeST]

Would it not be possible to have a "middle" starter for the epic huge networks,

ie:

thats 2 tiles per direction, one for the inner (faster), one for the outer (slower) what about a 3or4 lane (dont know which, maths is hard at 1:30am) middle piece that can be placed between?

tho ofcourse, i have no use for these networks, just suggesting....

RHW 26.That will be the largest highway in the game.How about RHW 36?

[sim-al2]

If you have cities that need RHW-26, you might need to consider your life priorities. The weaving on such a thing would be utterly devastating to most people.  Even on that RHW-10, it could be real challenging. (they should put the RHW-26 in a video game, with lots of traffic. That would be a real challenge )
