[choco]

dude, these bridges are beyond words. I can't wait for their release!

[KoV Liberty]

Can we see a side view! These are awesome! I especially like the newest one. Looks like its from Greece or something. Keep up the spectacular work!

It makes me think about this one: A roman bridge build round the year 19 BC, the Pont du Gard

[Fresh Prince of SC4D]

^^Ditto. This way actually a idea I had but I never asked. I'm surpised choco did it!

[Meastro444]

I like it being made of bricks instead of the blocks it is made of now

[choco]

thats a pretty good guess, une_ame!  the pont du gard, thats another intriguing one.   


i wanted to show an updated pic from a project long ago....that has not been forgotten about.  i had lost some gmax files, and i took some time to recover.  still a bit more to do yet, but its getting closer....

Oh Choco, how awesome you are!

never fails to stun!

[Girafe]

Amazing !!! Choco 

the Gard bridge is very nice too hope you will have time to BAT it 

[citymax]

Awesome work !!!!

[choco]

[KoV Liberty]

Finally! Someone fixed that!

Hi choco, I have been reading this thread ( i read the first 12 pages and the last few) and I seen you made a bridge for the lrt in Edmonton, Well I live in Edmonton myself and would love this and any other edmonton items you have, I searched for a downloads section on the lex for your bridges but did not find anything, thanks for the help and AMAZING work on alot of these bridges.

[choco]

thanks GOldhell 

you read to page 12...wow.  i was a mess back then.     when i first searched for a light rail bridge to try to model, the LRT was the first hit. 


its in the El-rail bridge pack, found here.  much of the stuff i have been working on since has needed to be reworked several times as i have learned better methods, so i'd like to at some point update those older bridges.  i hope you enjoy them in the meantime.

You are the bridge master Choco. Glade to see these impressive bridges still coming outta your workshop. Btw I am going to have a massive mml pack next month since my recreation folder got swamped FYI

These..... are..... so..... awesome!!!!!

I wanna keep updated on this! *subscribes*

[choco]

so, i hope to get opinions from the community....not sure which way to go with the next project.

here's a rough mock up of the Pont du Gard...



before anyone asks, the textures are temporary and the geometry is not quite to scale....which is my main problem, as this is quite a unique bridge to attempt.  initially, i wanted to make this for the CAN-AM...however, given the real-life dimensions of the Pont du Gard, it would be necessary to widen the top while making the lower decks more narrow....eliminating the road deck/pedestrian bridge that crosses the bottom set of arches (there would be no way to functionally connect them). 

i do have another idea for the CAN-AM, but i wanted to float this out there.  while making the true Pont du Gard is not particularly feasible, a viaduct could be made that is very similar.

Wow....
I just fell out of my chair....

Not a whole lot of words to describe this I think WOW will have to do
