Show us Your Interchanges!

[nathanthemayor 1,261]

@Ganaram DI:That interchange looks exactly like some in Fresno(Like this or this one)!. Nice work on it!

Actually they're common all over California, especially Sac, Stockton and the Bay Area.

Here's another three-way that I made sort of recently.

Also, I've wanted to show this one for a while, but the prop pox ruined the city before I could develop the surrounding area enough.

[Lucario Boricua 7,027]

That's a really neat compact Y-interchange you have there--and it looks like it's on the right place (except maybe for the avenue underpass, in case it's meant to be an intersecting road; given the lack of space between the Y and the avenue).

[Moonraker0 192]

Thanks, Dragonxander; also, the avenue is not meant to intersect with the highway, since there's an onramp further north. Here's the onramp, which has around 40,000 cars using it each day for the morning commute.

Here is mine:

A Realistic turbine interchange

A Compact Parclo A4

A Semi directional T Interchange

Those are PERFECT examples of three interchanges: turbine, parclo and T!!!! Add vegetation and traffic and you have yourself a wallpaper ideal for any of us transport geeks!

What point do all those MIS serve?

[simcity4deluxe 95]

this is a better one that I made.

Compact grade-seperated, sunken urban highways made easier!

[bluemoose 223]

That looks really realistic Bipin. I wonder if you could elaborate for us how you did that?

[catfriedrice 3]

Well, I toyed the 5.0, and got this:

hooray for ave-4 ramps.

and then I made this monster:

I certainly can explain! Begin with digging a 15m deep, 3 tile wide trench (assuming your using RHW6 or another network that takes up 3 tiles). Place the 3 tile network down the trench, just drag it. Using a slope mod (I use Ennedi's), drag 1x2 tile long strips of road covering the sloped side of the trench and the flat tile 15m above that sloped side. You should do this along the whole trench, both sides, leading to the sloped side of the 15m deep trench being 2 tiles wide (2 tiles slope to for the 15m trench sides instead of just one steep side like you would have started with). Every 14 tiles (13 tile-wide gap between both pieces), plop a 1x1 piece of road on the upper side of the trench slope, this should leave you with something like the following:

____

..........\___

..................\______

The red part should be 15m above the green, with the blue part being approx. 7.5 above the green. It should be half the height of the total trench. Leave 3 tiles placed at total trench height (15m) in the the center between the two tiles at 7.5m From the middle of these three tiles, place a RHW2 T-intersection on-slope elevated piece and connect it to the other side so you have an overpass over the sunken RHW6 at the bottom of the trench, 15m below of course. Now, back to the 7.5m area. With a slope mod installed still, connect this 7.5m area with road to the 15m high area, resulting in a nice smooth slope between the 7.5m area and the overpass intersection at 15m. On the slope between the flat area at 7.5 and the flat 15m area on one side of the T-intersection for the T-intersection On-slope RHW2 piece, place a FARHW4 inside exit. This should result in the puzzle piece conforming to the exact shape of the slope, the inside exit piece should not alter the slope in any way. Now just plop the RHW6 FARHW exit pieces so they connect with the inside exits.

Hopefully this is helpful, I did my best to explain it. I will also attempt making a video, as it's really the best way to understand how this process works.

You should post this as a tutorial (with lots of pictures--not because I'm too lazy to read whole paragraphs or anything ) over in SC4 Devotion. There's a thread there for RHW Tutorials. Know which one I'm talking about?

Yes, I do, and I will certainly do so!

You mean the RHW interchange guide? It mostly deals with junctions but I'm sure this setup would qualify. You can find that here: https://www.sc4devotion.com/forums/index.php?topic=6843.0

Amazing work by the way!

[clarkjordan12345 108]

This is going to be in my Bergerland CJ which I'm bringin back to life soon! It It's a 3 way interchange built with speed in mind. To the South is the capital Askersund, to the North, the second largest city Lillefjell and to the west a string of towns along the side of a fjord which I have not named yet

[jacksunny 741]

Clarkjordan12345: Nice use of MMPs.

[DavidB_ 83]

I'm just finishing my most complex highway interchange to date... A combination of two opposing Y interchanges and a standard rotary junction in between! I'll add some photos into this post when I've tidied it up.

[McDuell 301]

Some new RHW 5 interchanges from my collection.

I'll start with a diverging windmill:

Here is another diverging interchange, this time orthogonal x diagonal:

Back to the windmill design, both highways diagonal:

Here is a Pinavia interchange:

The last one for today is an irregular spaghetti design.

Have fun

[Ded 30]

Have fun

Those are rather spectacular, McDuell!

[TowerDude 2,186]

Wow ! dude, I never used RHW, but this is totally amazing!

[timmie 988]

Impressive, McDuell! I particularly like the diverging windmill

[aeiouy 0]

Impressive, McDuell! I particularly like the diverging windmill

Impressive is right

[nathanthemayor 1,261]

Version 1 of my turbine interchange:

Version 2, with smooth curves and accerlation lanes

@McDuell:Nice interchanges there!Also, will the diagonal RHW 4-ERHW-4 be included in the next release?

[estonianmanAlt 2]

Truck stop

A simple trumpet interchange

Avenue interchange for airport

A full cloverleaf under construction

[Haljackey 17,270]

Have you guys seen these one yet?

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SfyyibnwfqU

Epic!

[MandelSoft 2,769]

I made one of those, actually (the last one) The other two are made by Haljackey. He's a genius when it comes to building huge metropolises and road networks.
