very nice work guys, I wish RHW will come out with one way/exit transition pieces. Looking good though!

    Wow, nice work everyone!


    Time for some new ones from me.  The outage has really killed some of my longer, older posts in this thread.

    Click on the pictures to view them in FULL Resolution! (1920x1200)

    A new sunken stack interchange I have been working on.  This photo was taken before development in the area began to show you it without any obstructions.

    A very long diamond interchange.  Again, taken before urban development.

    An ortho/diagonal interchange in a dense part of town.

    Anyways, thats it from me for now.  I hope you enjoyed them!

    Best,

    Haljackey, I'm really impressed by your mix of RHW and Maxis highway. I've been messing around with them together for a while and they always turn out ugly and fake looking - yours didn't.

    Well, ST has been out all morning, but it is back online now (but a bit slow).

    Anyway, I would like to announce that I have jumped on the Euro RHW bandwagon and downloaded it from the LEX. It is a great improvement, and it looks a lot better.

    I have a new interchange I wish to show. It is a compact lofted diamond, and it will free up lots more space for housing:

    Please post comments, suggestions, and questions.

    No, I'm actually making it. Shadow Assassin posted a teaser shot of it but said he wouldn't make it, so me and videosean decided to do it ourselves. I'll hopefully be uploading it soon. I'm currently packaging it all neatly into 1 dat file (its really tedious as there are about 1600 images)

    Wow... I guess I do love the NAM board. Apparently that is the only place I post right now. I do read other threads though, even if I don't post on them.

    I have another interchange BTW...

    ...somewhere...

    Two things:

    1. I don't use RHW for tollways; it takes to much work.

    2. That looks great!! You should start a thread here about it or post it at the RHW Guide thread!!

    Really! That's exactly what I need. I'll be sure to thank you when I download it 2.gif

    Anyway, how do you link two parclos with a trumpet?

    Here's how:

    That is all for today. I'll finish constructing it tomorrow.

    I'll also have some more and better interchanges then.

    mightygoose: the webpage cannot be displayed if you click on it.

    The zoomed-out version looks cool, though too huge to use practically near any city, unless you developed inside the leaves.

    Wow... It's even better fullsize.

    Over at SC4D in the RHW thread, theres an ERHW and possibly HERHW (elevated & half elevated, respectively) in development for possible inclusion in v21 or maybe v22, It will hopefully have diagonals, so you won't even have to worry about transitioning to OWR.

    Sorry, due to site timeouts I won't be able to show any interchanges today. Sometime this week I will post some.

    In the meantime, I will be posting elsewhere.

    tahill, good landscaping, but the interchange doesn't have complete access.

    Here is an RHW cloverleaf from me:

    westaugustaaug161412121as5.jpg

    I am going to enter it in the SC4D picture contest. If you like it, please vote for me 2.gif

    It would be appreciated.

    Please post comments and/or suggestions.

    Patricius Maximus: It is very nice and florary. Hey!! You just want to get another win, well okay I'll vote for you!!

    deathopumkins: MTO: Ministry of Transportation Ontario! You can often here this phrase: The MTO doesn't take care of roads in Northern Ontario with over 22,000 cars a day!!!

    I like how it's perfectly symmetrical. I'd vote for it.

    The only RHW cloverleaf I've attempted to build was a little odd, as there was a road overpass over part of it. And it was so close to the edge of the city that no one used it, as there wasn't room for an interchange with a city street on 2 of the 4 sides.

    What I meant particularly by the SNDOT comment was that VDOT spends all this money planting bushes, trees, flowers, you name it in the medians and around interchanges, but doesn't water them or even take care of them at all, so they all die within a year.

    And the roads are more patched potholes than actual road.

    Does any DOT (MTO 2.gif) actually take good care of the roads? No, cities don't count.
