Hi

Can I safely assume there is no way to build a tunnel with BTM?

[Vahr 343]

Oh it is possible, and quite easy actually. You just need to have an at least 30M difference of terrain. (ie just try drawing it through a mountain)

Hi first of great addition to the game

But i got a problem every time my bullet train tracks cross the road it use the standard monorail track instead of the bullet train tracks . But when the monorail cross the highway it use the bullet train tracks am i missing something?

Fixed the problem by edting the BTM file name from BTM to zzzzzBTM

Oke now i got new problem no pylons for the tracks and no overhead wire's

Are there no pylons or the wrong pylons? Do you have the HSR mod installed also? If so, you'll need the BTM -HSR Patch

[TheNukeNL 0]

I patched it and it still has no pylons to support the track and no overhead wire's and i dont think i got HSR installed. Here is a screenshot of it

You need to redraw the network for the patch to take effect (take the monorail tool and draw over it).

Also, the maximum image size is 800x600 or 600x800.

sory about the late response

I have treid redrawing and it dint fix it

[danholo 12]

I can't seem to get overpasses to work, or is there one for BTM over Highways (non-ground)?  I mean, I think the only way is to use the High Monorail pieces, and they are not patched to be compatible with BTM?

edit: Got it to work by adding the "zzz" prefix to the file folder.

Hey! i had the same problem, i had both HSRP and BTM installed so i installed the patch, aftear a whyle i decided i didnt used the HSRP so i unistalled it, after uninstalling it i lost the pylons, so i looked a bit and noticed that the patch was still installed, so i removed it and the pylons came back. So basically is you dont have the HSRP installed the patch will make the pylons "invisible?" hope it helps.

On the other hand the only thing i see mising for this awsome mod is aditional bridges... i seen some images of bridges cant this be uploaded "alone" as a bridge pack? that would be awsome cuz there is only one bridge in btm v2 (and none for btm v1)

Try putting a "Z" or two before the folder name (something like zzz_BTM2) so that it loads after NAM.

I downloaded the bullet train patch and everything seems to be working except that the train is still old. Why am I not getting the new train?

[Tarkus 6,933]

Any progress on this project?

No. Aside from Haljackey's repackaging efforts back in 2009, there has been no developmental activity or progress relating to the APTX Bullet Train Mod (which actually dates back to 2006 or 2007, as I recall), and I wouldn't expect to see any further development any time soon. Aside from "maintenance mode" gap-filling to support newer NAM/Monorail crossings (e.g. the NWM), I don't know that there's really anywhere this mod needs to go developmentally.

Just a quick announcement:

Tokyo Station, a large BTM station, is now available for download on the STEX!

Link:

It is also compatible with the HSR mod as well.

I removed the entire file from my plugins folder, but this railway still shows up in my city. Is there anyway to get rid of it?

The BTM is now part of NAM 31. Did you check it off during installation?

 

If not, check for files that start with 'z' in your plugins. Some of the original files had these extensions so they would load after other mods.

 

Hope this helps!

[JLA123 1]

in your "building a city from scratch" videos, what BTM mod do u use, with the street under it? also, what mod did u use for the monorail curves?

[Haljackey 17,398]

The BTM has been included in NAM 31. Select custom install to find it. It also has smooth curves and better compatibility with other networks.

[JLA123 1]

ok this message is sent during reinstallation of nam 31.2. so im doing that, but is there a texture back for the street under the bullet train track?

[JLA123 1]

ok, the bullet train looks like ours now, thanks, but I have another question. what japaness website do u use

[JLA123 1]

hey haljackey, forget the last messeges, but do u know when u can drag a road in a BAT that has a road inablement, is there a mod for that, because the road in the airport in ur building a city from scratch videos, that road is not showing up, can u help me?
