About This File

This is a set of unwired power poles based on the Wood H-Frame 138 kV single-circuit design, which is found pretty much everywhere in the U.S.  It is a staple of rural landscapes far and wide, and is used for a number of different voltages, though it is nominally 138 kV for this set. 

In SC4, this is a set of 84 eye-candy pylons.  Don't worry; there are MMLs.  It includes “tangent” poles in the following rotations: orthogonal (straight along the grid), diagonal (diagonally along the grid), fractional angle 3 (FA3, or a rise of three tiles over a run of one), and fractional angle 2 (FA2, or a rise of two tiles over a run of one).  It also includes “s-curve” poles, which enable the lines to temporarily slide over by a small amount (typically one or two tiles) without changing overall direction.  Furthermore, the set includes “angle” poles, which enable the lines to change from one of the aforementioned rotations (orthogonal, diagonal, FA3, or FA2) to another.  There are "dead-end" poles, which are useful for the starts/ends of lines.  There are also supplemental pole props which are placed on the lots to enhance the poles’ visibility at more distant zooms.

Dependencies:

MTO P3 Models Vol. 1. is necessary because all of the models for this power line set are included in that pack.

Additionally, I would recommend at least the latest NAM if you’re going to use the fractional angle poles, as it is the NAM which contains fractional angle roads.
