SAM bug?

[caleworley 1]

I promise I've searched the forums and readme for this issue, but I'm also new... please forgive me if this has been addressed.

 

I download/installed NAM pre-release 32.  I've had no issues and the files are awesome.  I attempted my first use of the SAM add-on by making a 2-lane road with a center left turn lane.  After placing the starting piece, and dragging the road network to extend it, I noticed about every four to five tiles a graphic bug.  I've done everything I can think of to solve it.  I then tried using a 4-lane road and received the same result.  Any suggestions?  Or is this part of the NAM being "pre-release" and this issue will be resolved with the final product?

This problem is most frequently caused by having an older version of the NAM or some of its files in your Plugins folder (or possibly DatPacked) in such a way that they load after the newer NAM.  Any such files need to be removed for the NAM to work properly.

If you really meant road note that SAM only applies to streets.  If there was a change in 32, it is news to me.

Well, that's actually an NWM TLA-3 network, which is not a SAM network. SAM is an aesthetic override for your streets, while the NWM is a network override that adds more widths, including the TLA-3, and is dragged by the Road network. As far as the bug goes, looks like you have an outdated NAM still hiding in your plugins, probably by the use of the DatPacker.

NWM is correct, not SAM. Sorry for the confusion and thanks for the replies. I'm not sure how I'll ever find the old DAT file(s) causing the issue but I'll do some scrolling through the plugin files. Thanks.

I take that to mean you don't have a sub-folders set up in your plugins.  This may be a good time to think about being more organized.
