haljackey I noticed that you used the light ground rail. do you know if there will be any mod that will make it look a little better? ( but some grass arond the ends?) You know more than i and its just a thought

Actually, I have no idea how GLR works at all.  Its all way above my head.

There was a texture on the STEX for the GLR network that made every piece look like the draggable GLR and the GLR in the Avenue.  However, it has been locked down.

If you want more information regarding GLR, visit the GLR Stations thread in the Modding: Transit Networks section.

Heres the link:

Well, while I am here, I can show that junction once again.  The area has since developed and it was getting quite busy, so I had to add some more junctions, stations and overpasses.  Also note, in the image, the newer Textures for the RHW network, which is downloadable via my signature:

This image shows road, rail, light rail, elevated rail, bullet train and subway networks!

This image showcases both light rail and bullet train interchanges, as well as the new textures for the RHW network.

That will be it for me for a while regarding Mass-transit, next time its back to highways!

[tjh876 31]

Yeah. I understand but like an avenue and studd if you put parks near or next to the roadway itself the sidewalks and stuff change. 
 
here is one of mine

[joeshmoe 1]

heres another one of mine from my city of St. Anthony.

this interchange had to be streched due to the position of the avenue and the bridge

[tjh876 31]

Here is another one (the full interchange)

Great interchanges there! I need more imagination to build those ones....

[tjh876 31]

Well mine are really just built becuase I have made one highway then created another highway over the original highway and then needed an interchange to help get traffic from highway A to highywah B (the name of the highways are really not A and B) so really I didn't plan for this highway to be this complex, just I wanted to make a huge multi-city highway conecting one of my first cities to a new one.

[Haljackey 17,322]

Here are 5 more from me.  They are highway interchanges this time.

Please Click the images for Full Resolution!  Don't let the size limits of Simtropolis deny you high-def pictures!  I can't stress that enough!!!

A newly constructed inner "partial-Y" interchange. inside of a highway.  **Also featuring the Multi-RHW network.**

A "Miltiplex" interchange between two highways.

A huge creation of mine, more of a stacked roundabout interchange.

A very congested Parclo "A4" type interchange.

My first Stack-interchange.  This junction actually predates when I installed the NAM, and the Stack interchange fit perfectly inside this junction.

Hoped you liked them!

Keep showing us your interchanges!

enough traffic? amazing pictures!

[villagemayor 0]

haljackey, nice pics of interchanges. Massive traffic jams!! Yikes!!

[Dreamzilla 0]

hi this is my first post  

a small train interchange at my industrialzone and it works great.

grtz

[Haljackey 17,322]

Wow, Dreamzilla! Thats really amazing how you did that! I really like how you connected those rail lines and those highways!

Anyways, Welcome to Simtropolis! I hope you enjoy your stay here! Feel free to post more interchanges here or check out everything else this site has to offer. There is just about something for everyone here! Once again welcome to Simtropolis!

[tjh876 31]

Cool! Yeah Welcome, hope you enjoy this here website

Omg are you kidding me?

anywayz thanks

[tjh876 31]

Well how did you do that? It looks amazing

[dadyrghluv 8]

more than likley it was done from a traffic generator. u can find them on the STEX, and when u plop a piece, it will make more traffic. there is an american one, as well as a euro edition. sweet effect none the less!

EDIT: here they are, 

american: https://www.simtropolis.com/stex/index.cfm?id=17000

euro: https://www.simtropolis.com/stex/index.cfm?id=16257

use these for CJ pics, or whatnot. hope u enjoy

[tjh876 31]

No I ment the railroad interchange

[dadyrghluv 8]

the railroad was done by making some hills and using the N.A.M(network add-on mod) rail puzzle pieces. if your unfamiliar with the NAM, u can find it here:

https://www.simtropolis.com/modding/download.cfm?id=380

make sure u READ THE README!!! if u have any questions, just P.M. me

yep.. it was really simple i'd use the hole digging lots for my sunken railroad and n.a.m. for the bridges.

[tjh876 31]

I have nam, and it is helpful enough

[Haljackey 17,322]

Okay, some new ones from my Capital City: Ultimate City (no CJ).  It is the oldest city I have and because it predates when I installed the NAM for the first time, some junctions are older and there are missing links in the city.  Because of this, it looks very realistic because most large cities in the world have old roads and missing links.  This is the perfect place for me to show some of the interchanges.  Many of them are still old and cannot be upgraded due to space constraints (it is a large and dense city) and others have been upgraded or fully reconstructed.  You can see this easily in these pictures.

Click the images for FULL Resolution (1440x900)!  I really hope you like this, I've spent more time on this city than my others combined.  It is my most impressive city and also one of my largest (1.8 million, largest city is 2.4 million)

Okay, here we go!  There are a lot of images, so the thumbnails will be small.  Don't forget to click on them!

Sunken interchange with the Western Expressway.  At the time, I didn't have NAM overpasses, so making a tunnel was the only way to biuld a sunken highway.

A Bullet Train hub with the Dicken's highway to the east.

Western Expressway/Northwall Throughway sunken stack interchange.

Airport Throughway terminal interchange.  One lane completely enters/exits the highway here.

Hwy 639/636 elevated colverleaf interchange in the centre of the city.

Ultimate Crescent/Northwall Throughway cloverstack interchange.  The bullet train line was a huge concern constructing this interchange.

Hwy 638/Sming Dr.  Interchange.  Hwy 638 also doubles in size east of here from 6 to 12 through lanes.

Hwy 638 interchange with itself, allowing a transfer between highways.

North side of the Hwy 639/637 Interchange with rail lines running parallel to hwy 637.

South side of the Hwy 639/637 Interchange showing slip ramps for local traffic to enter/exit into this heavily built-up area.

Hwy 639/Haljackey Throughway sunken stack interchange.  A newly reconstructed interchange with the majority of traffic switching between highways

Hwy 639/Ultimate Parkway interchange in Ultimate city's CBD.

Dicken's Highway/Northwall parkway cloverleaf interchange.

Well, thats it for now.  I hope you liked them!  Keep showing us your interchanges!

I created an Interchange. It is somewhat like a cloverleaf, although not exactly the same. I created it using ground highways, european lateral highway exits, and the N.A.M. 90° Road Curves.

[bbfan02 23]

Nice job, very creative.

[Godzillaman 21]

Very simple but unique!

[rodrigogua 1]

where do you get those exits? they look awesome and i cant't find them in the stex anyone?

[Godzillaman 21]

Originally posted by: rodrigogua where do you get those exits? they look awesome and i cant't find them in the stex anyone?quote>

They are in the NAM.

[bbfan02 23]

Yeah? I didnt know you can make those kind of exits....

[Haljackey 17,322]

CowboySean: Cool cloverleaf hybrid!

rodrigogua/bbfan02: Under "Single-sided" ramps (the second last icon in the highway menu), press tab multiple times and you should find the interchange as long as you have the latest NAM.

Keep showing us your interchanges!

[chocolate_city 93]

These aren't my interchanges... but I found them on a City Life link .... a link that somehow escapes me... but the interchanges had been modified to work with City Life
