New heavy elevated rail viaducts

[ArkenbergeJoe]

HAPPY XMAS



Here is the Red-Viadukt-Texture as BETA-Variante

See your in Simforum.de

Well I can say the Elevated Rail Viaducts are just what the doctor orderd, no more traffic snarl ups at busy level crossings.

Thanks to the team who made this possible indeed 



That is an example of the work being used, thought I might showcase an example to the team so they can see the fruits of their labour paying off.

Again well done

Now, just make the EHR draggable like the GLR, and we are off to the races.

Don't worry, we planned that already; it just needs time.

...traffic snarl ups at busy level crossings...

Level crossings? BAH, humbug!

[Palpatine001]

Level crossings? BAH, humbug!

Bah Humbug? Alrighty then Ill leave you to Bah Humbugging while I raise another 50km of Rail

And yes dragable Heavy Rail Viaduct with matching ground junk depending on wealth would be even a finer edition... 

[dragonshardz]

what i meant was that I will never use a level crossing again, ie, default RR crossing.

Unless, of course, it is on a rural lightly trafficked street.

Another option that uses the girder pieces to form the network instead would be nice, as the stone gives it a older field - but the girder pieces give it a more modern feel.

[RebaLynnTS]

I'll bet that one day, they will do something like the SAM with a lot of the networks. We'll be able to have lots of version of each of them.

Actually, they are planning on doing a RAM (Rail Add-on Mod), but that's a long way off (or so I heard).

What exactly is that rumored to include? Single tracks? Multi-tile crossings that actually stop cars from crossing if a train passing on any of the tiles? That's what I'd like to see.

[mightygoose]

well ive seen pictures of three track elevated rail....

[Shadow Assassin]

The RAM will, to my knowledge, probably include single-track rail, elevated rail [it's currently puzzle pieces, but all the needed models are already done so it shouldn't be a problem], and of course, multi-track rail that may be done RHW-style. Heh.

We'd probably see R-1, R-3, R-2 left and right, R-4, and so on

[figui]

single track-rail.. that'd be great!
(from the nearly 3000 km of the net in uruguay, only 18 km are double line  )

Where can I see the working on the Railroad Addon Mod?

Where can I see the working on the Railroad Addon Mod?

The work hasn't started so far, except some planning maybe.

[ArkenbergeJoe]

Hello

Here is a new graphic-mod from the viaduct-rail.
The Puzzles have a footpaths for the Sims.





The diagonal Ruzzle have a footpaths only by urban area (except onewayroad)

[Kitsune]

Hey joe, the girder pieces over the road are very nice. Any chance of extending those pieces into a full out network so people can have something more industrial looking instead of the arches?

[ArkenbergeJoe]

The light-rail have but the industrial look.... 

[nerdly_dood]

Now what I'd like to see is an elevated heavy rail passenger station and a freight station.  Or, more preferably, a variety of them.  I don't like having a long stretch of elevated heavy rail in a dense CBD where I don't want to bulldoze roads crossing under the railway to make way for an elevated/ground transition so I can build a station. Of course I could use Smoncrie's hole digging lots, specifically the ground lifter, to raise the station, but that would involve doing things with the terrain that I don't like to in CBDs and it would be difficult to get a road up to the station in a CBD setting.
