Dont think i have posted on this thread before but i have been reading attentively!

Im loving these lots, altho i have never made a sunken highway before i was tempted today.

I tryed and failed. this is what i have got so far

The Red is what im hving a problem with, But as i have just read u will release a diginal beta later, so sorry for wasting ur time on that, The green. (green right) i may be using it upside down or not how its ment to be used but why is there fences on some and not others? (green left) why is there no texture like there is on the other wall lots, eg the little grey square that looks like it goes under the highway?

The blue i used my own 1x1 filler here, but maybe u should make a 1x1 filler with some textures? rather than me use my 1x1 that doesnt lookj right?

well there is my questions.

Also, how the fek do u make junctions, when i had ago this is what i got.

the land raised, and when i placed the beta overhand only the top half of the wall showed, leaving a blank area. how do u make junctions to go with ur walls?

other than that the best on simcity atm!

well doen keep up the bril work!

Taz.

can anyone help me to find how to make a jucjtion, like posted above, in my last post. Or direct me to a tutorial

[rooker1 4]

aaronperry, you are making it correctly,  it's just the rest of your sunken highway is too low.  Hope this helps and have fun cause they are great pieces.

wonderfull work and detail

re: im usign the standard hole digging lot? and i have made correct junstions now, i investigated!

But, the overlaying texture, are not covering all of the area, guarded by the fly off. i will host a picture later.

Aaron,

Use the Single-sided Parallel Onramps from the NAM, not the Maxis Parallel Onramps. The Maxis ones have a slope limitation of some sort. The NAM Single-sided Onramps are puzzle-pieces and conform to the landscapes better. They can be found in the Highway Menu.

[GMT 389]

ah, its released in beta. that might explain why I saw it just yesterday in a cj...

great work

The link of the beta version you're talking about is dead...when it says download now, it brings you to a page not found...so where is it possible to download them now?

Another question...now we're talking about sunken highways walls but at first the thread was born talking about underbridge pieces...on STEX i found those pieces but they are just the straight sections from what i saw...and the diagonal ones showed in several pictures?  And also looking through the pictures in the thread there are many and many other pieces shown, but no one is anymore talking about them...are they going to be ever released or is a dead end of that project?

thanks for answering to my doubts

anyway you've made a really great job buddybud, keep on going!

[aaronperry 0]

i think the link still works, try acsessing the page in a diferent browser, also , diaginals is not featured in the previous beta.

heres an update i finished the last couple pieces, four more to be precise. two for the tunnel and one for the pedestrian overpass and one for the lookout.

they look much better now with the shadows. in my opinion anyways..lol

now i just need to package them and upload...and move on from there...well see where to nextquote>

It looks great man! Any news on when we can get our hands on this?

[Xilef 0]

Buddybud, your creations are just fantastic!

I was just experimenting with the multi highway trick and came up with an idea. I think it will be understandable when you look at the picture.

This can maybe be the next project...

[metasmurf 705]

Xilef: good idea that could be something!

[Cjah 15]

Xilef.......YES if you get this to work then this probably will be the next project cause everyone knows it is ugly to split EL Highways,but it is cool to try that once in a while....but if we have something to mask the ugly parts then I think these will be used quite often,,,,

[Xilef 0]

Unfortunately, I have a mac and since it seems impossible to bat/use gmax/use loteditor on mac I can't do anything (which is quite frustrating!).

But I hope someone else can get inspiration to start this project.

[metasmurf 705]

Well this isn't really under bridge stuff but I just wanted to show some custom stuff I made using buddybuds prop to cover the part between the highway and the nearest lot. I also used brickwall prop by agart, and made the base texture transparent. Some of NDEX billboards were also added. Let me know what you think

[zzsim 3]

^ That looks like it would fit in nicely right in the middle of a dense city or a downtown. Personally I always hate having that empty space between the highway and the adjacent road/lot, and this looks like it does a good job to solve that problem. Also, if you made a version with higher brick walls, that would work great as a sound wall, which you usually see along highways in heavily populated areas.

[metasmurf 705]

I agree that the walls are to low. Guess i have to learn the bat tool and make some

[simoplis_mayor 3]

awesome just awesome ill help with any testing

[buddybud 63]

sorry about the lateness of being.......

anyways almost done......decided to skip the beta cause i wanted to do a bit more....and well i ended up re-rendering all the top pieces....thanx to a suggesting from jeronij that i almost ignored untill i realized how right he was......heres a shot with the new tops.........

all those little rocks and bushes added tonnes of render time....didnt seem so bad first time around.....but when i re-rendered them .......well lets just say it took days. but i think it looks even better now......

heres a shot of the constructor lot im going to use....im at the moment trying to use the bsc menu management mod....and since i made a lot specifically for it lets hope i can figure it out

and last but far from least is this.......its a one by one lot with a HUGE set of overhanging props..........this is not done yet but works beautifully.......its a skin for under one of these there interchange thingy's......lol......i have know idea what its called but look below......

again the shadows add quite abit of depth to the interchange

i want to add props to all these....random crap but i dont know if ill bother.....so time consuming

topcliff: thanx for the compliment......it will be hard to live up to

rooker1: thanx also

toxic piano....its possible if time permits....

blackbeard....welcome. i lurk at pegs place so im pleased to see ya in my thread

aaronperry: i trust you figured it all out if not..........

sunrise7: ill upload it sometime after now...later...maybe soon...maybe well see(can you spare a week or two of your life to speed up the process. maybe you can design render texturize build the lots mod them and then package it for me............)

vester_dk: always happy to see you here

jacqulina: you have a way with words.......how do you get such a high post count....lol....j/k.....thanx as always

swamper77: thanx for the hints so far you rock

[zzsim 3]

 Wow, that interchange lot looks awesome!  I can't wait for these to be released.  They will definetly improve the look of sunken highways in my cities.   Thank you!

[metasmurf 705]

Edit: Double post, sorry

[metasmurf 705]

That interchange thingy looks SOOOO good! Your pics just blows my mind

[shasta 1]

Don't worry Buddybud, I'm waiting patiently, like everyone else here, as it looks like this is well worth the wait. A question though: are the pedestrian bridges transit-enabled?

[Weird 0]

GOOD LORD!! Those are incredible! The construction bit looks superb, and the interchange, spectacular.

I'm sure the whole community will be very thankful when these are released.

Keep up the wonderful work!!
