Lane Dividers

[Lorddreaman]

Does anyone know of a mod that has the red X's and the green checkmarks to show your sims which lanes to drive in?  Either here or on Simtropolis, I would be very interested to know if there is a mod for that.

You mean "show paths" I guess
get the "extra cheats" plug-in it's here on the LEX. http://sc4devotion.com/csxlex/lex_filedesc.php?lotGET=2261
In game press ctrl+x in the dialoguecreen right click and select "draw paths" press enter


Hope that helps!

show us some pictures of what you mean..

He means the changable lane signs over contraflow roads.

They have like (2nd line is the sign, | is a lane):
N
|  | |
v  ^^
|  | |
S

From the view of N it would be

X X V

And south

X V V

I can't say I've seen any though for SC4.

Sometime back I recall someone working on this idea.   The idea being at different times a day the one way lanes would switch from one direction to the other.   It has been quite a while ago when I saw this posted.   I seem to recall it being related to or at least  brought up in one of the "Big Dig" threads, but I can't be sure.     One of the sign gurus had even posted some overhead signs.

If anybody was unsure of what these are, they are called Lane Use Control Signals and they look like the picture below.

Sorry I couldn't put the picture directly in, so I posted a link instead.

I think that it's impossible to make it fully functional. SimCity 4 paths are static and they won't change during any time cycle, so you can't switch direction during the day. That would make the mod only cosmectical. What you showed is also known under the name "reverseable lanes".

[Lorddreaman]

Oh it wouldn't matter to me if they were programmable,  if they were just a cosmetic mod I would be so grateful.  Besides I plan to use them on my avenues and perhaps on my rural highways.  I think they would look really neat in Simcity 4.

[MandelSoft]

In that case, it looks like a job for the NWM. It could be based on the TLA-3, but instead it would have double dashed lines.

There was one set of those in an old sunken highway wall mod, but I forgot what it was called. It was very modern and bright white, and had exit ramp signs built right into the wall, in case that jogs anyone's memory

EDIT: Nevermind, found it on the STEX. They're not animated, but I hope this works for you at least a bit. They're called the Sunken Highway Eyecandy Set.

This is what you're looking for I think

[zakuten]

Oh, I didn't know there was a direction control sign in that set, hehe
