Offline-Only Mod: “MagLev as Subway” This mod add a new set of MagLev tracks and stations to the game, so they mimic a Subway system rather than an elevated rail one. The stations do not need the Academy or ControlNet in order to get unlocked and running. They do not futurize the areas around them.
You will need to have Cities of Tomorrow in order to see the stations and tracks in the MagLev palette. Much like for the MagLev system, you'll need to place the stations on roads first and then connect the tracks between them. Subway tracks should show up with a green highlight while in the Maglev Palette or while using the Bulldozer tool.
To install this mod, just extract the rar file into your SimCityData folder. Thanks to all the DevTesters who tested this mod. Thanks MaxisLime for the station art.
What you need to know about this mod: This mod is for offline mode only, and will cause rollbacks if played online. Make sure your remove the package file before going in multiplayer games. You need to have Cities of Tomorrow in order to use this mod. The subway tracks are tunnel paths, and therefore cannot cross the sea level. It may be difficult to use the mod in low-altitude cities. Make sure that the transition path is flush with the MagLev track when drawing it, or you'll get some missing art.
