Amigo,

how can it be otherwise,

it's your birthday and you are giving us, a gift!

As usual your generous nature is showing.

You were talking of raising a glass of champagne to our health,

well let this irish boy raise his glass of scotch to YOUR health!

Slanthe! my friend

and here's a bottle for you!

(which by the way is my favorite label)

[jeronij 13]

OK, I decided to show you some more pics about the finished underpass. I hope you like the details....

Pedestrians can use the underpass...



An overall look....



Those underpasses are not always a safe place....



 I hope you can notice the nightlights...I tried to make them not too bright....



Who has the longest train in Simtropolis ?¿



And to demonstrate how the underpass can be fully UDI used....Mayor Jeronij took his firetruck and made a round across them




I hope you like the idea and the "mise en place". Your comments and suggestions are welcome !!! (like metasmurf´s suggestion about a street under a ground highway....   )


Oh, and John, I´ll get a good one with that bottle  !!!

i saw things just like this in the japanese bat thread but they had streets, roads, and avenues, then i downloaded them and they never showed up in the game. i think it would be great if you did roads and avenues too because around here these are very common. another cool thing with the ones around here is that the sidewalk that goes under the tracks is sort of raised above the road with a guard rail along the side. i'll try and find pictures to show you what i'm saying as i'm sure you thinkin i'm crazy trying to explain this to you without a visual. lol.

happy birthday also!

EDIT: i just saw your new post and they look great. that green texture is perfect and overall it's very realstic. can't wait to see what else you do with these!

Hey, happy birthday!

Jeronij, I have no words for that magnificent work you're doing. Wow, those street underpass will surely be a-must-download! It's amazing that they are UDI usable! The way how they looks is also great!

Great, great, great!

[Darmok 34]

Just great Jeroni, just great!

I noticed with those closeup that the concrete texture is one of the best I've seen so far! VERY realistic, we can see some mold and "vert-de-gris"...

Really impressive!

Oh, and try to save some of that excellent single malt for when I'll go visit!

Take care

[Micah 16]

Finally!!! No, I'm not saying "finally" because this project is almost done, but that someone has finally created an underpass that "finally" works!

Jeroni, what a special day for you. Happy Birthday!

[Sagrel 0]

Hey Jeronij! Happy Birthday! I really like your underpass, it's just great! Congrats...It looks so realistic!

Keep up the good work!

[justanothersim86 83]

Drool......Those are amazing! Now I can recreate my hometown!

Hey, jeronij, happy birthday! Today's my mom's birthday, too, so I got to say "happy birthday" two times today. Anyway, I really like the street underpass. However, do they require marrast's underpasses? If they do, I can't use them because I never downloaded them before this last site upgrade, and I understand that marrast's stuff got lost in the transfer, and I think I heard that marrast is not active here anymore. So, I say a job well done and a kudos for the amount of time you put into modding.

[jeronij 13]

Hello again...

Thanks for all those nice comments and congratulations !!!! I had a a really nice birthday !!!

About the underpass, well, the idea it is based in Marrast and some unknown (for me) japanese creators, but the models are completely mine, so there are no external dependancies ;-D

Have a nice day all !!!

[JoeMeister 1]

This underpass is awesome!! It really looks great and it actually looks quite realistic.. I even think I drove through one of those not so long ago ...

Anyway... I love your CJ and I can't wait for another update on those great looking cities you build.. your work (on both cities and custom stuff) is absolutely stunning!!! Keep up the great work!!

[ILL Tonkso 1,236]

Hehe, i see you had a bit of fu with that fire engine, i see the diamond is almost red tut tut lol.

[bat 6]

great update!

bat

[bokrif 18]

Those underpasses are wonderful! Such a useful creation.

[mambomumba 8]

I guess the site was right then regarding your birthday then... 

That underpass is great jeronij, a great compliment to Marrast underpasses, I'll be waiting for it to show on the exchange...

[kant01 5]

love those underpasses! looks like they will be a nice addition to the one's from marrast.

[Battlecat 14]

Nice work on that underpass!  Looks fantastic!

[rayced 0]

Happy Birthday Jeronij! (37 years are not so many, you are a kid! ), this stuff it's really intresting, and it is one of the thing the original game lacks!

[owenluby 1]

WOW! Excellent work there! those uderpasses are great. Now here comes the noobie question: where can i download them?

sorry for the extreme noobness but hey!

ps happy birthday!

[GMT 389]

the idea of the underpass is wonderful, tho for me, as a tuning addicted, the ramps are a little to step

anyway, awesome work (as everything you do)

Thank God!! And thank you, jeronij!

[halo_lover 1]

jeronij, I don't think I've ever left a comment on this cj (or your old one...believe me I've been here for a while and have read basically all of it hahaha), but let me tell you that your CJ is quite possibly the most beautiful thing I've ever seen. I mean...it's just amazing how much effort you put into it! It's just so amazing, I can't think of any more words for it.

[kimcar 10]

First of all :  happy birthday in late sorry .  And your underpass is very realistic . very good work . And also your street side mod too it`s a very good looking mod thanks for all your work .

[jeronij 13]

Hello dear Simtropia visitors....

Thanks and thanks again for your great feedback  !!! Your comments are always appreciated !!!

I have been investigating a little more on those underpasses...( maybe I´ll have to open a separate thread for them....) and I followed metasmurf´s suggestion to get this:

More ideas for new intersections are welcome. Btw, there are some problems with this lot and the transit simulator, which lets the cars in the higway exit using the street. This is not a visual problem, because visually everything works fine. Also for UDI driving.

I´ll probably open a separate thread for the underpasses if I can not solve the problems. There are also some special things to do for the lots to work properly. Once you plop the lot, you have to save and exit the city and enter again for the custom paths to work. 

Also, because those models use real underground LODs, there is a visual glicth when you plop them. You have to change to any Mayor mode view ( lets say fire covering or water covering view) and the glitch gets fixed. The same thing ( or a very similar one) happens with the NDEX underground transition.

 

[jacqulina 162]

wow thats an awesome piece of work very nice detail

[Pixelrage 34]

that's pretty interesting - I know of an intersection that has a green/red arrow bar just like that, too. It's a road that has 5 or 6 lanes that all wind up going in three directions. You also see them before most of the bigger bridges around here.

[mightygoose 92]

they look awesome all of them
