Title: 90 degree curve fillers
Post by: Simmer2 on May 07, 2014, 03:15:23 PM
Hello all.
I'm sure quite a few of you have come across a certain dilemma regarding those jagged edges left by curved NAM lots (roads, rails etc.)
I have looked everywhere for a over-hanging set of props/lots in order to fill those pesky jagged edges left by the curves but cannot find any. For the diagonal lots there are dozens of them available but alas none for the curves.
Anyone seen them anywhere on the net?

Paeng has made some very nice ones that are available at the STEX over at Simtropolis.com. They are really just overhanging plaza lots, but they look nice and fit in, especially if you use the sandstone sidewalk textures (the texture of the plaza).

Otherwise you'll mostly have to search around and ask when you spot specific ones in a CJ or MD.

Thank you for the quick answer however I already have those and they only work for the small 90 and 45.
The larger 90's overhanging pieces, especially for the STR 90 curves are not available anywhere.
Oh well its time I actually learn how to lot and create my own.
Thanks again for your replies :)

If you use the new draggable wide curves in NAM 32, sidewalks will appear on them.  They look much more blended.  Instructions are in the NAM manual.

The draggable wide roads curves have been a struggle for me to do, and I'm sure many others. Sometimes I get them, sometimes I can't. Recently I had to just plop a puzzle piece because I couldn't for the life of me get the pattern right. I think it's helpful to have the grid on, and I think I mainly just need more practice with it....

Same goes for the draggable FAR-3. It's not as easy to do as the FAR-2.

All the patterns are in the NAM manual.
