MGB - Sidewalk NAM (SWN) for Paeng's Sandstone Pavements v1.46

Nice ^_^

Really great, it is needed. Thank's a lot.

Thank you very much! I can finally get rid of the last concrete sidewalk textures!

Hey, I got little problem. I installed it but it overrode Riiga's TuLEP by putting in standard Euro TuLEP. Is there any way to fix it?

@ WolfGuy100 - There are many different TULEP options within the NAM installer, these are just for the standard Euro versions so it's not an error per-se. I will probably include the Dexter UK versions at some point in a future update but outside of that I have no plans to do this for other sets at this time.

Hi

What have used to make the GLR track sandstone as well? I hate the white concrete when everything else in my city is sandstone. Just did a search, is it the light asphalt mod? This is a needed addition to the sandstone mix as well. Good work.. 

@rsc204 alright, just take your time, looking forward to it. Hopefully to see you make it for Riiga's TuLEP option.

Yup, this is the Super Light Asphalt mod by Magneto, I just grabbed the GLR files from that and ditched the rest, takes a bit of playing with to get it right.

Otherwise look at my Tutorial, here on SimPeg - there are two other GLR mods, one as part of the Japanese NAM Facelift Mod which is SMP Sandstone that fits quite well. The other by AtmoGuy uses Paeng's Sandstone, but keeps the white concrete in the centre. I switched to the Super Light Asphalt one because it covers pretty much every piece including stations and diagonals so it's vastly more uniform than other mods I've tried. The Asphalt stands out, but not anything like as bad as the white textures.

I plan to get to the Tram Stuff next, but I can only work so long at a time with images so it may be a while before any release.
New Version Released 19/08/14, GLR textures are now fully supported.

Hi, 

Where can i find a tutorial which tell me how to set the load priority. 

Shortly: "make sure that the Sandstone Euro NAM loads after the Japanese Facelift Mod." How does it work?

The load order is done in alphabetical order, but I don't have a link to hand and it gets slightly more complex than it's worth going into here. The easiest solution would be to have three folders in the root of your plugins folder like so:

  "z___NAM"                                (No rename/change required)

  "z____Nam FaceLift"                 (4 Underscores)

  "z_____Sandstone Euro Nam"  (5 Underscores)

The underscore works counter-intuitively, but if you rename the Nam Face-lift Mod and the folder for my mod in this way, the loading order will be as shown above, although Windows will show them the other way round.

Hi, this is a great looking mod, but I'm having trouble getting it to work.  I reinstalled the NAM to use the Euro road textures, but I also selected some other options, and I wonder if any of those conflict.  Perhaps you can share your NAM custom installation configuration for us novices.  I grabbed the needed file from the super light asphalt file and stuck it in the z_____Sandstone Euro Nam folder.  My other folders are named exactly as above.  I am using Paeng's pedmall parks mod, which also uses the Japanese FaceLift Mod, and I wonder if that's the culprit.  Any ideas?  Do you know of any other mods that conflict with this one?

Sorry for the delay in responding, I have been on holiday in September and just got home, but have a load of real-life stuff to deal with right now. This is a bit too complex to write out an answer here, therefore I would ask if you continue to have problems to post on my Lot and Mod Shack page (link in download description). You will probably have a load order issue if it's not working since compatibility issues shouldn't arsie if everything loads correctly (see my previous comment here for instuctions) - I'll try to include a listing of the NAM install that would be most preferable to use with this mod at some point, but it should be pretty obvious and of course many people don't use everything so I've tried to keep the mod as modular as possible to avoid a larger install than necessary.

Looking forward to when you get them last pesky parts done. I have been keeping my eye on your SCD thread :3.

Could you maybe make a Patch for the American Style Textures?

Already taken care of. The new version of this mod, which will be called SWN (SideWalk NAM), will fully support US textures. In fact it will support more than one sidewalk option too. Right now there is still a bit of work to be done, but for the most part the textures are finished. If you'd like a preview version, chuck me a PM and I'll happily pass one along.

Will this also work for FAR?

FAR isn't covered directly, no. If you are using the draggable FAR (roads only currently) from the NAM, you don't need any mod to show your sidewalks on them. If you aren't familiar, I've a YouTube tutorial that shows you how to use them.

For the legacy puzzle pieces, which also includes OWR and Ave in addition to WRCs, you should install the Japanese NAM Facelift Mod:

Since this mod works with all sidewalks, I have no plans to replicate it's functionality.

I've been holding my breath since you first announced the SWN. I even switched from the SLA to the PSS just to try this pre-release. I'm very much impressed and grateful for this and all your exceptional works!

Can I leave the files of the Super Light Asphalt Mod or do I have to just leave the "TIR-s3d fix.dat" to work properly?

In short you only need that one file, in fact installing any other files from that package would just cause problems.

However, I'd recommend you download instead the Preview Edition of SWN, which is linked here, that no longer requires this dependency and is ultimately a more complete mod.

It doesn't work! I don't know where or what I did wrong. Help?

Sorry I've only just seen your comment. Whilst I try to answer all questions, this isn't really the right place for support, a link is in the download description to my support thread where I would be happy to assist with any problems.
