(Contains no path files yet).
Please note: the above file now contains 3 unique system files related to the networks. So chances are it will currently not be compatible with other projects currently released in other threads (ATL, roundabouts, diagonal streets etc). Now includes a ReadMe & contains a brief overview of the file names. A few things have been changed & added, so previous versions of the file should be deleted (as usual).


ardecila:
Anyone is more than welcomed to make texture requests. If you're able to do textures though (as noted by one of your previous posts?) would you mind posting the files for them please? (Colour & Alpha). I did manage to use the pictures in one of your posts, but posting the files themselves would be a lot better & helps with things overall.


Swamper77:
By all means, if you would like to do the paths go right ahead. This will help, so thanks! Some of these newer junctions look like they may need traffic lights (too). Something I've not looked at yet.


jeronij:
Have a good & safe holiday .
I look forward to the next set of textures. Once again, thanks.

Tropod,

I will do the network tiles later. I'm concentrating on the paths first. Here's what I have done so far:

-DoubleDiagonal Rail, Orthogonal Street
-Diagonal Road, Street + Junction

-Avenue Corner, Orthogonal Street + Junction

-Avenue Corner, Orthogonal Street

I think I may need a hand when it comes to the one-way road paths. I'm not sure on how to set up the paths for the cars for one-way road....

-Swamper77

[Tropod 144]

For any paths you don't do, don't worry as I will do them.
For the most part, paths for onewayroads are almost identical for paths for roads (the exe handles the flow of direction). They're essentially pathed the same way as if the network was road, with Stop paths usually being a bit different depending on the junction. Junctions involving onewayroad can be a bit different too depending on them, but overall they're still effectively pathed as if it were road network.

[Swamper77 90]

Thanks Tropod. I will path them as if they were a normal road. It makes it easier for me anyway. Thanks for the help.

Thanks jeronij
Just with the onewayroad textures; at the moment they look more like avenue than onewayroad textures, but they are still good .

This is just an example comparison:


If you wanted to leave them as is, that's fine.

Hi Tropod, you are right, I used the avenue tiles to make those crossing, but I thought it was not important since what is an avenue?, two one way roads. and the intersection should fit with OWR and not aves ( there is no small walkway and no painted lines ).

Anyway, I leave in some hours on holiday, and I will we back in a week, so I can not work any more on them until next week. Just say what you want . (I am not sure abuot the differences between those crossing for an avenue or for OWR . Any further info will be welcome )

[Tropod 144]

Once again, thanks .

Just thought I would point out, that because of technical reasons the DoubleDiagonal OneWayRoad Dead Ending into Road corner will not be properly useable until Diagonal OneWayRoad Dead Ending into Road Corner can be done for both IN & OUT sides.


Here's an update on the list:
Items yet to be done &/or newer requests:
-Diagonal OneWayRoad Dead Ending into Road Corner (as only one side is done, as it needs Diagonal OneWayRoad OUT x road corner, it's currently still on the request list ~ both sides, IN & OUT should preferably be similar graphically)
-Straight Road into an Avenue Corner Edge (like Street into Avenue corner edge tiles)
-Straight Road x Straight Road + Junction on Avenue Corner edge (again, like Street + Junction on Avenue corner edge tiles)
-Straight OneWayRoad x Straight OneWayRoad + Junction on Avenue Corner edge (again, like Street + Junction on Avenue corner edge tiles)
-retexture needed for games default diagonal road x straight rail (yellow lines on road need to follow through)
-retexture needed for games default diagonal road x diagonal rail (yellow lines on road need to follow through)
-orthogonal street intersecting a diagonal avenue

I just thought of this...

OMG, I actually was thinking, maybe we need one.

But I can't find the corner pieces anywhere!

[Keiran Halcyon 0]

That would be sweet. I'd also like to see that intersection rotated 45 degrees (two diagonals and one orthogonal. Yes, I know, the avenue y-stack does that... but it's rather large.)

[frimi2 0]

And would like something like this ;-)

[ardecila 124]

Well, we already have an interchange for such an intersection as frimi2 posted.

If that is done with a texture, could a slip lane be included using the unused half-tiles between the two diagonal legs?

forgot to upload the file. End edit.


Ok, so would've posted these a few days ago except I've been having (ISP/PC) problems. anyhow........

This is what they look like in-game;
The centre four tiles are the ones that need textures for
them, no others;

(Avenue Y-Junction1)


(Avenue Y-Junction2)


And this one, well, the onewayroads would need to blend with the rest of the AvenueY-Junction;
(Avenue Y-Junction1 x OneWayRoad Orthogonal)




update on the list:
Items yet to be done &/or newer requests:
-Avenue Y-Junction1
-Avenue Y-Junction2
-Avenue Y-Juction1 x OneWayRoad Orthogonal

Tropod

Two offers I have to made for the Y-Junction 2:

The first as you requested:

The second a bit different

Tell me which (or both) you like

 

[Tropod 144]

One minor problem graphically I think, would be going from the right diagonal side to the left diagonal side (for US version & visa-versa for UK version). Perhaps do away with the centre island or make it shorter & put in some dotted lines for right to left side & left to ride side. Otherwise they both look rather quite good.

(grin) Yes, I forgot one connection

Ok, here we go again :-) I think, there are enough markings (May be more than enough)

But let me hear what you think:

[Teirusu 38]

I think in a Y-intersection they would be more inclinded to turn both lanes into turn lanes, like this:

Although, much better then my quick copy 'n paste ^^;

Yes, I think, you are right. Let me look ....

[Tropod 144]

I personally have no objections to arrows, so with or without. Just realise that an extra set will need to be made for non-US versions.
The 1st one looks good with the island along the middle (on all three sides), but the 2nd one looks good with the Stop lines (on the two diagonals). Otherwise they look good .

I believe, it was not a question of arrows, the markings are the core. Let me see ...

[Shadow Assassin 336]

They look good, but can't we just have the intersection matching the ones already in the game?

aarrr right......gotchya . I saw the differences with the line markings, but was more focused on the arrows. But I see now the reason for the arrows.

[Tropod 144]

Just adding a few more Texture requests;
Textures/Tiles marked in Red denote which tiles the junction occupies & would (possibly) need textures for.

avenue curve, onewayroad orthogonal offsplit;
(before the last one can be drawn, this & the next one would need to be done)


avenue curve, onewayroad diagonal offsplit;
(if think this one is good enough & ok, traffic lights aside, then I will simply just use these textures in the picture)


avenue curve, onewayroad orthogonal/diagonal junction offsplit;
(again, if think this one is good enough & ok, then I will simply just use these textures in the picture)



(so I/we don't lose track of what has/hasn't been done, I'll be posting the list each time I post *if* it changes)
Current request list:
-Avenue Y-Junction1
-Avenue Y-Junction2
-Avenue Y-Juction1 x OneWayRoad Orthogonal
-Diagonal OneWayRoad Dead Ending into Road Corner (as only one side is done, as it needs Diagonal OneWayRoad OUT x road corner, it's currently still on the request list ~ both sides, IN & OUT should preferably be similar graphically)
-Straight Road into an Avenue Corner Edge (like Street into Avenue corner edge tiles)
-Straight Road x Straight Road + Junction on Avenue Corner edge (again, like Street + Junction on Avenue corner edge tiles)
-Straight OneWayRoad x Straight OneWayRoad + Junction on Avenue Corner edge (again, like Street + Junction on Avenue corner edge tiles)
-retexture needed for games default diagonal road x straight rail (yellow lines on road need to follow through)
-retexture needed for games default diagonal road x diagonal rail (yellow lines on road need to follow through)
-orthogonal street intersecting a diagonal avenue
-avenue curve, onewayroad orthogonal offsplit
-avenue curve, onewayroad diagonal offsplit
-avenue curve, onewayroad orthogonal/diagonal junction offsplit

Ok, here we go again. Hope that fit's your requirements

 

EDIT: I'll do the other both Ys too

[Tropod 144]

They're good. The small circle in the middle could possibly be used to place a trafficlight pole there.

With the other Y's; the Y-Avenue with orthogonal onewayroad joining, I guess all four tiles for the junction could be done if need be (but don't necessarily have to), would just require a bit of extra code. It should be kept in mind though that the onewayroad on either side should be considered seperate (if that makes sense?).
