Show us What you're Working On

[JulianMIA 1,610]

I am working on my first real use of RHW finally even though I have been at this for 3 years on and off - at least where I have actually completed something useful anyway.  I am sure most will agree there is quite a learning curve with this stuff!

Essentially this is an intersection of a 10-lane east-west and a lesser capacity north-south expressways.  Rather than create just an interchange between the two I have tried to create a 'distributor' so that traffic can land in various areas of the street scape many blocks apart depending on where the desired destination is.

I anticipate the heaviest traffic in this area coming from the western suburbs and smaller cities of the region to the west and the distributor design has let me keep the mound of highway in a little more linear shape and actually lets that westerly flow head north or south on the other expressway, exit directly onto any one of three main north-south avenues or directly to two east-west avenues separated by about 4 blocks.

Hopefully someday it will actually have cars on it!

New rail station & overpass

Meanwhile I went a step further with the U Store It lot and created something new.

Its actually 2 different buildings/signs and 2 different businesses combo lot. Every time you plop it you get a different combination.

So 1 lot - 2 businesses - 4 possibility.

Lots of prop families involved.

Here are some pics.

Your MMP and lot layout remind me of Rollercoaster Tycoon!

Nice one!

In coming back to the game recently I once again reinstalled the SFBT Street Tree Mod. I didn't want the old Jeronij parking bays at all since they clash with asphalt (I'm using TRK-NAM Default Asphalt Streets) and don't look that great nowadays anyway. But they wouldn't go away, because the T21s are in the SFBT mod. Rather than painstakingly remove them, I decided to replace them with some parking bays that would fit in seamlessly. After lots of futzing around I assembled new 2D props in probably the most roundabout way possible with Reader, Model Tweaker and GoFSH. Pretty satisfied, and since the props are just 2D planes changing them just requires changing the 3 textures, aside from having to stretch them to full width/height (128) because of how they're UV mapped.

Next goal is to replace the remaining SD tree T21s with HD ones.

 

Hi!

it's looking interesting. But about the tree replacement. If I understand correctly you are modifying the SFBT Street Mod by replacing the trees with HD trees. I would recommend you to take a look onto @T Wrecks Maxis Tree HD Replacement Mod which has the option to replace all the maxis trees and it has options to replace the trees in the SFBT Mod as well...

Yeah, I finally found that it was actually just another instance of old CP street trees in the SFBT Props folder. I actually do use that mod. Maybe I should look at HD street doodads to replace the other stuff instead.

Hi there!

Hey there, kind of a random question but since you're really good at these station re-lots I figured I'd ask here.  Any chance you could add a nicer shelter to this diagonal GLR station?  This one isn't my favorite lol.  Always been partial to the one above it actually.

Or is there a tutorial somewhere?  I don't quite have the modding skills others do lol.
Thanks!

Probably, Cogeo's Model Tweaker should be able to rotate the model, but the results of modifying an already-rendered model aren't always satisfactory.
