    Hi, I'm running into trouble when trying to build an avenue-bridge over another avenue.

    First I used the holedigging lots to make a sunken avenue. Then I wanted to build a bridge over the sunken avenue (like you see with sunken highways).

    I don't know how to do this. First I thought of simply dragging a bridge (I have the bridgeheight mod installed)., but this didn't work. Then I tried the NAM puzzlepieces: I used the avenue over avenue puzzlepiece, but since you cannot use puzzlepieces on a slope, this didn't work either.

    I know that what I want is possible, because I've seen it in other journals.

    How do I pull this off? Advice is more than welcome!!

    the latest NAM has Avenue OnSlope puzzle pieces. you have to Tab through the Avenue Puzzle pieces. If they're not there, you need to download the latest version of the NAM.

    To use the default bridge, it must be over water.  You can make a bridge over a hole by using the rain mod, but I don't know if you can then drag an avenue under it.   Make a hole and fill it with water using the  rain mod, drag the bridge.  Exit the city, and when you load it again the water will be gone.  Water made with the rain mod will only exsist until you exit the city.

    Thanks! 

    @Prince_of_sims: I wasn't aware of the onslope puzzlepieces; but I found them. Great stuff. Thanks for the advice!

    @Tungston: Yes, I knew about thet raintool. I tried it out several times, but it takes up too much time. Using the raintool, saving, quitting and entering back again will take up to 15 minutes for me, if not more (with my pluginsfolder stuffed with 1,5 Gb of downloads). Thanks for the advice anyway!

    Btw, I found a useful tutorial in the Omnibus
