RHW (RealHighway) - Development and Support

[vinlabsc3k]

Something like this?

Exactly what I meant!! 
My idea have 4 additional pieces: the slip lanes, the intersection, the RHW-3 w/ slip lane in/out and the WRHW-2 modified piece.

And I've got them ready in-game (still needs pathing though)! Watch and drool!

These are great!

Now excuse me for a moment, I need to wipe up some drool off the keyboard.

That is indeed freakin awesome!  Those look very much like many rural road intersections I know of.  Fantastic work.

Good job Maarten.

It's unbelievable!!
You are great!!
It's... it's...

Great job Maarten! I have been waiting for these for a while. One question. Will these TuLEPs be ported over to the Rural Roads Plugin or Rural  TuLEPs plugin (if it is to be created)? Or will they be exclusively RHW material? I know many surface roads (Non highway) In Rural Australia (Where I am from) have these type of intersections.

Anyway great work

I hope someone noticed my previous post...

[Tarkus]

Maarten, excellent work--I wouldn't expect any less!

I hope someone noticed my previous post...

I did, and I think most others did as well, and consider it taken under advisement.

Definitely, I would say. I've been dying to have that kind of intersection for regular TuLEPs, but it requires the addition of a few new pieces that aren't currently available ...

Soo, rural, Maarten!

This is really    , but I am missing the acceleration lanes on the last picture on the left side on the road (street from north to south)   

[APSMS]

Why does the left side need acceleration lanes? Traffic is originating from the turn lanes, so there's no merging with thru traffic. Or maybe I'm just not understanding what you mean.

Accel lanes are needed for left-turning traffic so that it doesn't have to worry about waiting for a break in both directions.  Since right-turning traffic isn't crossing both lanes, it doesn't need accel lanes.  I hope that makes sense.

[Tarkus]

It's something you'll sometimes see referred to as a "seagull intersection" [link].

[APSMS]

I see. I was looking at the wrong street. Tarkus' link straightened things out.

Those are some very nice RHW TuLEPs; So tempting that I actually want to try out making a rural stretch of highway in my mountainous region parts just so I can find an excuse to use them (I have a hard time spending time to do stuff like that, so for me it means a lot).

[DJSun1981]

Thanks Alex, that is what I mean - rightlane accel lanes

[gn_leugim]

that is so great! 

that last concept (with the side turning lanes) applied to normal roads would be also sooooo awesome!

I hope that the developement of QuickChange ramps don't affect the correction of this bug.

[Tarkus]

I hope that the developement of QuickChange ramps don't affect the correction of this bug.

No.  Completely unrelated developments.  I thought that one had been fixed already (it appears it was in one of Maarten's alternate texture sets), but it is now fixed on my end here and added to our depository.  And since I'm as tired of seeing that pic of the RGBK tiles on the end of those ramps as I'm sure you are, I'll violate my "no patches between releases" rule--see attached.  You should be able to place this wherever you want in your Plugins folder (it's basically adding missing texture IIDs), and can safely delete when NAM 32 is released.
