(Offline-Only) Roads With No Traffic Lights  1.5 / 1.2

   (25 Reviews)

About This File

This mod adds the roads with only stop signs at the intersections.  

 

Features:

- High Density Street and Medium Density Street with no traffic lights.

- High Density Avenue and Medium Density Avenue with no traffic lights (version 1.1).

- High Density Streetcar Avenue with no traffic lights (version 1.2).

- Major roads and Secondary roads.

- Cars pass pedestrians at the intersections.

- You can add the traffic lights using "Road Upgrade" and remove them again according to your wishes (see screenshot below).

You should save the game after creation of region and restart the game, so you can upgrade the ordinary roads to the roads with no traffic lights.

 

This mod can help to reduce traffic congestion in the city. 

You need to place a road in a value "a secondary road" at first and then a road in a value "a major road" (It doesn't matter when the road crosses the Avenue).

 

When you use this mod with the Project Akar by Yayie (http://bit.ly/1ooMyA4), you can find these roads in "Custom Roads".

Thanks to Yayie for assistance in preparing update 1.3 and Banwashere for preparation of icons in update 1.4.

 

THIS IS AN OFFLINE-ONLY MOD.

 

How to install: 

Unzip the files, copy and paste the .package files into your SimCityData folder.

 

Regional Roads With No Traffic Lights should be used ONLY WITH the main mod "Roads With No Traffic Lights".

very sweet max keep it up .. only a few more to go and project intersection 2.0 will be finished .. and add 512 options to any large city :) people just don't even realize how much this will impact yet..

 

Yields to normal roads and then UDoN's and that will be it.

 

very proud of you dude

I think you have gone just a bit too far with the avenues... I mean: streetcar avenues with no lights are just unrealistic... and even the fact that there is no order at all in intersections creates traffic jams... Well, it works fine with a streetcar avenue and a low density street (which - for some reason - creates a traffic light) but having no lights in the busy 4 or 6 lane roads is just not okay... the pictures look quite ridiculous and I really don't see how this helps (as in real life an intersection without traffic lights would create a BIG, BIG traffic jam)... sorry...

@Airplane09 OmegaCo isn't exactly real-life either, nor are many other elements of the game.  I don't think anyone, including the game designers, were ever, ever intending an accurate representation of real life in any respect.   The game is a simulation, it is never meant to be a proper emulation of real life.  If people want to take this simulation given to us in its original state by the developers and extend its playability and fun in some way, I respect that.

Ok, it was just my opinion.... but really now: why are you people so scared about traffic???? I mean every city has some traffic problems at peak hours but that's all...

I'm a mac user, using the App Store version! what should I do to have this in the game!? Where in the game should I look for it?

I've dragged it to the plugin folder but still I can find it nowhere in the game!
Besides I'm a starter!

Is SimCity (2013) available on the Mac App Store?

Hi omirzaie,
 
Firstly, this mod is for SimCity 2013.
 
Secondly, I am a Mac user and as far as i know, SimCity 2013 is not available on Apple AppStore. It is only available on Origin App Store. On Apple Appstore, there's only SimCity4.
 
Thirdly, this is how you add mod into SimCity 2013 on a Mac
 
 
Any question please let me know! Thanks!

There is any way to make the traffic lights to interact with the mouse click?
 

The Simcity 4000 uses the combo CTRL + Left_Mouse_Click in the traffic light of the roads to change between red and green.
 

It would be very usefull to manually open/close traffic lights for the Polices/Ambulances/Firefighters, and so bring back this glorious feature of the SC4.
 

It is possible to do this with MODDING for SimCity 2013 ?

I can't upgrade traffic light roads (normal) with no lights roads (mod), there is no option on the "upgrade tool" menu.

 

But it works the other way...

I know about this problem and almost eliminated it! In the immediate update of this problem won't happen.

After Akar update This mod is conflicting with El train It wont connect Rail or bulldoze rail. I spent all weekend Isolating this little booger... so I'm sure it's this mod thats conflicting... hope you can fix it I've become used to having them both...

Thanks Max for the reply!!! Ok I gotta say I ONCE loved this mod ,but now not so much! It is conflicting with anything Maglev related El trains ,subways and road upgrades are making walls again. Isolated this little jem as the problem., I Could not take it anymore so I removed it Now I cant re enter ANY of my city's without it,So I put it back in to try and load a City build I've been working on for months to try and save it. IT'S HUGE and a lot of work has gone into it. I Downgraded EVERY Road to With traffic lights.and it still cannot load ANY city in that region!!!. BEWARE OF REMOVING THIS MOD! It WILL mess up some stuff. Any way don't really want to try to fix it because Ive been messing with this since Friday I Just want to get some of the new stuff in Like your new road mod. SORRY it worked good for a while buy It Needs Updated Thanks
