Nice work guys I'm currently building an airport which is going to have a very large GLR Newtwork to get around the terminals. I'll post some pics of it when its done.

Wow I really like your tram system, Dragonsign. Where did you get the double station in the third pic?

[dragonsign 8]

Thanks

I found it on the stex; https://www.simtropolis.com/stex/details.cfm?id=14020

[citiesxlfan42 27]

I have a ton of questions for dragonsign! Actually, one long one.

Where did you get...

-The tennis courts

-The double wide GLR station

-All the other stations

-The GLR Road crossings

It looks amazing!!!

[ROFLyoshi 1,760]

The GLR crossings are in the GLR puzzle pieces menu, press TAB to cycle through them.

ROFLyoshi said it, use the glr puzzle piece and tab  until you find it

Good looking pictures, everyone!

I love the GLR implementation. The only thing I find a little odd is the possibility to build somewhat unrealistic one-tile 90 degree turns. I would love (or not..) to see a tram take on such a turn in real life..  However, with this piece the network is amazingly flexible and allows for construction even in tight situations. I guess I'll just have to live with it.. 

[ROFLyoshi 1,760]

Hehe... Go to Melbourne.

[heitomat 156]

Hehe, I Googled it and I see what you mean (Nice tram network, by the way). However it looks much tighter in SC4, especially the inner track of the 90 degree turn.

Maybe it's just because of me using a GLR skin with too long carriages, though..  The turn seemed to be less of a steel crusher with the Docklands skin..

[ROFLyoshi 1,760]

Thanks. Our network is epic win, but to me the sharp turns seem feasible.

Nice job. May I suggest you get a better Tram skin on the STEX, as the default one looks ugly.

[Larks2242 251]

Nice job looks really good!

I had the same problem as you, until I downloaded this fix (link). However, I've only used this fix in conjunction with Vester's multi-unit trams (volume 2). I don't know if it works for the single-unit trams (volume 1) as well.

I love me some trams! Here are some of my favorites from my CJ.

Balboa City

Down in the "nice" part of town


The historical rail line

Taraville

Trams, trains, and subways underground at the Depot

Mario City

Central Station & Ballpark


Around the library


Taking a turn on the evening commute

[ROFLyoshi 1,760]

I remember seeing this in your CJ! Love them, given me ideas!

Once again, great pics everyone!

[Retep Molinari 68]

ROFLyoshi: I remember seeing this in your CJ! Love them, given me ideas!

I think this means I need to get more updated photos then!

[ROFLyoshi 1,760]

Haha yes you do.

For my trams' biggest fan, anything. Check my CJ's tonight :-)

EDIT:

Here you go, as promised

Here is a GLR system in the downtown area of the current region I am playing, Grant County. The jagged grassy area under the elevated rail through the downtown area I originally had was bugging the crap out of me, so I replaced the whole thing with GLR. After playing around with the tram-in-road feature of the NAM, I was quite impressed with the results.

The above was kind of tricky to pull off. Each time I tried to plop the avenue GLR intersection, the GLR path would nerf itself and revert to elevated rail. My only choice to achieve the "along the road" effect was to make the avenue an overpass. And it worked!

Above, a terminal using the SCS GLR station!

The diagonal Marrast GLR station along the main thoroughfare through the core of downtown. This diagonal GLR line replaced the ugly, jagged bare ground texture left by the regular elevated rail.

...And, of course, the obligatory vertical panorama shot!

Many, MANY endless thanks to all the hard work of the NAM team and to those who upload to the STEX!

[Larks2242 251]

Cool tram system, Ixnayonthetimmay!

[Keegan V50 15]

Nice tram network layout there ixnayonthetimmay

all the best

Sorry, is it just me or do Victor Valdes's comments seem too generic? No offense, but at least you are giving out praise.

I first saw it in some guy's posting. Let me try to find that post, and if I do I'll send it to you. It was a Japanese website; that's all I recall.
