Title: HIGHWAY Tunnel
Post by: moeom on February 22, 2012, 03:56:46 PM
Is it possible to make a Highway Tunnel? Im trying so hard and its simply not working. :( Is it possible that the BRF Tunnel&Slope plugin interfering with me getting it right? I haven't tried to remove it and just came to my mind while posting this. Going to sleep now. But i thought i would ask so i can give it a try tomorrow after work. So if its possible for a highway tunnel, can someone please tell me or show me a link to a tutorial. Thanks a bunch.

You haven't specified what kind of highway you're talking about, but it looks like you mean RHW. Tunnels for RHW are disabled, because they don't work. People have manipulated slope mods to the point where the game will draw them, but no tunnel entrances appear (just a transparent ground texture), and no traffic uses them. These problems appear to be hardcoded in the game's EXE (which can't legally be edited), so unfortunately, there's no way to fix the tunnels.

Thx for the info. That means i will have to use the game's highway system for the tunnel and connect the RHW to them just before the tunnel right?
