RHW (RealHighway) - Development and Support

[b22rian]

Yes, but there's still a lot of work to do. If anyone else is asking when the release is, I must dissapiont you; there are still some bugs. Here's a testing report of mine 3 days ago:

Best,
Maarten

I think alex and all the testers and helpers are doing a great job with this...
I mean with this much content being released, i know i certainly didnt expect an over night release or
something.. Better to take your time with everything as you are doing and get things correct...
The rest of us can wait patiently.. This will be more than worth the wait for it, whenever its released..
Thanks to everyone involved in the project..

Regards, Brian

I have noticed that with the transitions for MIS elevated and RHW elevated, there seems to be no actual ramp, but just the road goes through the middle of the air (no supports) to get to the elevated structure... like below (preview of RHW in prev. page):


Is this the end result...? Or will we actually have a proper ramp for the ground > elevated RHW and MIS?

We will have an actual ramp.  Those are just prototype models I did to test functionality.  Jan (Swamper77) has been working on new RHW Models, and once he's done with them, I'll be incorporating them into the Alpha Builds.  And they don't float in mid-air.

Ah ok thanks

Pretty cool. And....."All I want for X-Mas is my 2 front teeth! I mean, RHW 3.0 to be released!"

Also, This is a video about worst-case scenario in a RHW-10. It's in spanish, but you can probaly figure out what the reporters are saying.

Multiple accident, so was the shock? Pan American and Marquez clash in more than 20 cars involved? I don't know Spanish, but I think I get the idea. No matter where you are, people always behave the same way with this being in a rush thing, that looses concentration, that can cause some serious problems. This is a real EA Burnout, an insurance adjusted worst nightmare. If I also understand, America doesn't really want to build these types of super highways that many lanes wide anymore, with this knowledge, because they would prefer people not going 80-100's of miles per hour, and prefer jam ups so people don't cross state lines commuting to work. At least the RHW's don't do this type of thing, but you will see cars zig zag oddly, when using traffic generators on the wider networks. Normal commute, they don't seem to drive like that in the video, and go perfectly straight, but with the traffic generators be prepared to get in an accident in UDI.

America is NOT immune to these type of multi car accidents as well! We can go on, and on about this, but there is nothing entertaining about this.

Luckily Australians know how to drive, so we don't have massive 50 car accidents on our freeways.

You're lucky - you never have to deal with ice on bridges... Anyway...
Back on topic plz!

I'm looking forward to the RHW overpasses very much.  Until then, I suppose I'll just have to transition RHW-4s to OWRs for overpasses.  For now, I'll be satisfied to just see a pic of the new ramps, as soon as one can be prepared.

[puncher1076]

Are there anymore teasers? 

[Monorail Master]

Yeah, well, it was either that video or video on that 200+ car pileup that happened between Dubai and Abu Dahbi, United Arab Emirates. It happened in March 11, 2008. Well, back on subject. There should be more teasers. And what I said above, "All I want for X-Mas is RHW 3.0 to be released!"

[czkimi]

  love it   thx the RHW
Expecting the V3.0

[puncher1076]

Yeah, but I want RHW released TOMORROW!
For RHW-8, is it going to be dragged like the RHW-6C how you drag a portion and override RHW2 into another portion of the Highway?

lookin' great!!!

[toxicpiano]

GOOD JOB

[io_bg]

Looks very good but I think it would be better if there were more supporting pillars 
One more thing - will there be smooth transition between round RHW and elevated RHS (like these between the maxis ground and elevated highways)? If yes, it would be great.

[metarvo]

Thanks a lot, Swamper.  That's what I wanted to see.    Real RHW overpasses are so close now.

[deathtopumpkins]

Great models, Swamper!

Jan that is stunning work wow!!!
