Canal Addon Mod (CAN-AM)

[MutantPlatypus]

Wow this would be awesome, just don't know how would it realistically go over the barriers? Maybe we don't need that much of a detailed job. =)

Yeah.  I don't even get the ferry automata.  (I haven't investigated why, either)  Just a 3-wide or modular lock that has a ferry path would be super.  Or overlay pieces...

Hello
I'm always like to see canal such as functional OPPIE's. So my request is that can be constructed CAN-AM for this type canals because without you offend they are much more beautiful as a kind of water and they look very clean.

I have problem with the ferry automata, why the ferry can't appear at all of the station, but only appear at one of the station at my city and the others appears like the bus automata.

can anyone help me please?

Could blank wall puzzle pieces be made, to work with the wealth addon?

Hi, I am very late getting into CAN-AM, but loving all the lots. I see traffic when queried on the canals and as a test have set-up isolated residential area with no other access than the canals which have grown and generated traffic down the canal. But I don't see any automata. I have seen two similar posts in the thread but no replies as what the problem could be. Can anyone assist?

Ivaylo, I believe that I included instructions in the CAN-AM wealth mod on how to add in a different set.  This would be the best way to add in Oppies Canals

What do you mean blank wall puzzel pieces?


To those asking about Automata.. I can't help sorry, thats the technical side of things.

I apologize to many since my question may seem a little silly but could you tell me  Where is  this Instruction  CAN-AM wealth to see if  I will manage to  add my desired set.

Best,

This set is the mod that allows different canals using wealth. The readme, and the download description, contains instructions on how to modify it.  Hope that helps.

A link would do a great job. If you find you'll be infinitely grateful.

Thanks

Maybe the information you are looking for is found in the readme in this file

Have a sunny day

My apologies.... I had copied the link to paste and never pasted it.     Stupidity on my behalf.  I did indeed mean the link provided my Gringamuyloca.  Thank you for that mate.

I am ashamed that I ask 100 times for the same thing but really I'm not clear how this will be done to replace some of these channels Oppie's. I have read thoroughly the instructions but there is no mention of what program to use, and worry that there are 4 basic set-s change which, if any of them will be great confusion. So please give your little detailed guidance as to a moron like me.

It's not simple modding.  I'm guessing Oppies canals are Low or no wealth lots.  The easiest way to check is to plop one along side the water from the CAN-AM and if it doesn't change it's no wealth and if it does you need to find out what it changes too.

Assuming the water doesn't change and the lots are no wealth you need to modify the 2 no wealth exemplars.  To do this you need to open the water and bank no wealth files in Ilives Reader and change the Resource Key to the model TGI ID of the water and standard bank models of the set.  I can't elaborate more on how to do this as I don't have the Reader installed anymore.  It's not too difficult once you know which items to change, but hopefully someone will pop in with more advice on that.

We need blank wall puzzle pieces, what with the wealth mod and all.

Mate, you need to elaborate on what you mean by blank wall puzzle pieces.

Hey all.  I'm getting ready to start playing again now that I'm not playing in giant sandboxes anymore.  Had a question I wanted to pose to everyone that uses CAN-AM.  I love CAN-AM in concept, but in the end I never use it or other canals because I end up with dozens and dozens of pieces that only match their set and with no transitions.  Anyone, this time I'm going to go with only going to go with CAN-AM and 1 or 2 canal sets.  So.. the question posed to all of you is, which canal set do you recommend with CAN-AM?

[Diggis]

This set here: Diggis CAN-AM Multiple Canals Mod uses lot wealth to allow 4 different types of canals.  The set includes support for:
High Wealth - Cal/SG Canals
Med Wealth - SG Canals
Low Wealth - Diggis Ponds
No Wealth - CityNuts ASC
plus vague instructions on how to mod it for any other set.  I say vague in that I assumed a level of modding ability similar to mine (ie not huge, good understanding of file structure and knowledge of the reader).

Blank wall pieces so you don't have to keep changing the walls manually when you have the Multiple Canals Mod

Yeah, you've lost me.  The way the Mod works is the water changes depending on the banks you use, to match the bank pieces.  So you shouldn't have to change them.  Maybe some pictures of the problem would help.

Is there something that would explain this...

This was the original setup...



The only way to jobs is to use the canal. All appeared normal with both canal terminals providing service (I'm only querying one in the image.) However, if I demolish the street to the south of the canal end...



The traffic using the one terminal disappears and no-car zots appear above residences.
