Real Highway (RHW) - Development and Support

[Tarkus 6,932]

Interchange:  To answer your questions:

-If the overpass pieces are only facing one direction, try rotating them with the Home/End keys.  If you've used the NAM  before, you should know this.    If you hit those keys enough, it'll eventually line up.

-If you're experiencing CTDs, be careful that you're not plopping the MIS pieces near TE Lots of any variety.  This is a very well-documented issue (also in the NAM Readme). 

-The "strange normal RHW piece attached to the end" of the MIS ramp pieces is an RHW-4 stub--it's designed to allow you to drag an RHW-4 out of it.  It allows it to function as another starter piece for the RHW-4.  Try using the RHW Network tool to drag out of it.  (Documented in the Readme, as well as Filasimo's guide at SC4D, which you can access without having an account at SC4D).

Ok, I already knew that about the home and end rotating, but thanks for the explanation about the starter pieces. What do you mean not plopping them too close to anything that's transit enabled? I only drug the MIS to the avenue, the exit ramp was still a ways away from that, but now that I think about it, there was a suburb that was pretty close to that. Could the streets have done that somehow to make it crash to the desktop? I made that suburb before that happened though, this makes me think it wasn't that.

A quick question-When are we getting the euro version of the new RHW?

[siso43 13]

looks great, good luck for the next time

When it's done, obviously. Shadow Assassin is working diligently on it, but since the new RHW is quite extensive, it might take a while.

[nerdly_dood 26]

Looking good SA. i might have to abandon my beloved Euro road mod until such time as you can get your texture mod done, for the sake of matching textures.

i have a question. since the new patch came out for the rural highway i was wondering about the intersections for the MIS? when i look at them i see the rural 4 lane road connection with the mis and it looks offset maybe it is something you could work on if you aren't working on it at all

Is there any way to make the RHW appear in the transit mode in the Region view?

your new rhw is amazing but for one problem the MIS interchanges can't be created properly (i couldn't create any!!)

[akhil1280 0]

i did create one interchange. but it was very diffucult

[simzebu 19]

Yeah, it takes some getting used to, and there are a few kinks still to be worked out. But it's working pretty well for me.

I have a question, I DLed the RHW and I love it first off. However, do you HAVE to use the RHW starter piece or can you just begin dragging the highway. I didn't use the starter and it appears to operate and path fine. I dragged off an existing avenue. Am I playing with fire or is all good.

Also, on exit ramps, I haven't figured out how to transition into a road or OWR easily, any suggestions?

[warrior 169]

If you don't use the starter pieces the highway will be one lane in each direction, similar to road this is called the RHW-2, with the starter piece the highway will be both lanes in the same direction like a one way road called the RHW-4. It's all in the readme so read, save time and get playing properly faster instead of waiting for people to reply to posts on forums.

It isn't possible at this time.  Maybe in v21.

[Need4Camaro 50]

I'm having issues, The ploppbable icon for the RHW displaying nothing but a red mouse pointer regardless of how many times I press tab. I can still use the side by side method but that means no MIS... was the MIS supposed to be downloaded seperately? if so, where?

Unless I missed something, neither of those threads helped nor answered my question...

[Filasimo 1]

really?

as quoted from Tarkus:

it sounds to me like you have some outdated files sitting around--that's the only thing that causes that "red cursor" issue. Make sure you don't have any outdated transit mods laying around--I'd also suggest removing your NAM folder and re-installing the NAM and RHW. Here's the order you should use (deviating from this will cause serious problems):

1. NAM June 2007

2. NAM Update January 2008

3. RHW (and any other standalone Plugins, like the SAM or bridges)

thats what i thought and good luck hope it works out

That worked, it was the RHW mod released as a package of NAM that caused the issue... thanks...

As far as I can tell, this question was never answered by anyone and I was about to ask it myself.  Can anyone answer it?

Thats a no.

As far as I know it has to entered into the exe files of the game. So it is not possible at the moment.

[dyoungyn 5]

Actaully, I did get the answer on SC4 Devotion.  I used the Extra Cheats option and it does show up now.  Thanks!

Yes I am.  In Las Vegas for New Years.  Once I get back I will see what this new version can do.  Judging from some pictures seen so far, this is a HUGE upgrade from the last version.

Anyways, I gotta run.  Sorry for being so brief and congrats to the RHW Team for a New Years release!

Best,

[chrisnhl50 2]

lol thats so funny. I figured something was up.

[JCarter 0]

Yeah, Ive been dying to see what Hal would do with the MIS

[akhil1280 0]

can u create tunnels for the rhw

[Hamish 1,370]

^^ use either one way roads or avenues to do that and connect it to the RHW.

[pilotdaryl 25]

Here's a few things I think should be in the next RHW:

MIS - RHW-4 transition

MIS - one way road transition

side-by-side MIS - Avenue transition

Proper RHW-ground highway (and possibly elevated highway) transitions

90° RHW gentle curve

diagonal avenue/one way road - RHW transitions

RHW-6 orthogonal-diagonal split, something like this:

|||  ///

||| ///

|||///

|| //

||//

||||    |||=RHW-4 ||||=RHW-6 ///=diagonal RHW-4

RHW-4 intersections

Will be posting this in NAM Requests thread as well.

Already making requests for more... What if we said... "NO..  We dont have time for more."  What would you do then?

Things will be made when they are made.  We dont need people requesting new things or telling us what should be in the next version because to be honest, it has ALL been requested before and we will work on what we can when we can.

It hasnt even been a week since the release of RHW v20 and already you want more.  It seems you do not appreciate the value of the time and effort that has gone into the current release.  It would be much more worth you while to accept what you have and be happy we have gotten as far as we have.
