The Region of NAM


This City Journal is dedicated to the NAM (Network Addon Mod) and hopefully all the contributers.
I will use this CJ to give people an idea (visually) of what you can do with the NAM.

for questions and answers about the NAM itself go here

if you wish to download and use the NAM, see my sig (please read the instructions after download)

I would like to thank Tropod, redlotus, the7trumpets, and everyone else who has contributed to the NAM.

once I get this CJ up and running I will gladly take submissions or posts from others showing off their NAM creations, so feel free to post. (please make image posts NAM related).

OK, with that said off we go....

I will start with 2 shots,

more updates to come......

    Welcome to the second installment of The Region of NAM.

    NAM City was founded as the location of Tropod NAM Services Inc. Tropod NAM Services Inc. is not just your normal construction company, it is so much more. Tropod is the major employer of NAM City
    and the owner is the Mayor.

    As a full-time highway engineer and roadgeek, I have to say that this one just has awesome written all over it.  Can't wait to see what new ideas show up here, and I hope to see some of the interchanges I'm developing myself show up here someday!

    Looks great, It's horrable seeing what I could do if I installed NAM, but i'm scared to remove my current traffic mods by 7 trumpets and others because my commute times are all very low

    quote> I'm not sure, but I think the NAM contains some features that lower commute times and make the pathfinding better in the game.

    awwwwww, when i read NAM i thought this woul be creative and nice, instead its just showing us what the NAM can do and i mean it in a non creative way by just putting it there, i eman anywone can do that, take a picture of what is in the NAM with no creativity surrounding the picture. It would also be nice if it wasnt so griddy.

    Are you kidding? This is great! It has already gotten some interested in the NAM, and it has creativity!

    It's great that you're popularizing the NAM and making a city journal, but it is getting off to a.... slow start. I know lots of people would oppose this but maybe install the Super demand mod to make this CJ exciting but at the same time 'advertising' the NAM.

    Thanx everyone for your interest, a few replys...

    1. superstar, DUH! lol

    2. SkyTearer, if you are talking about the bug fix mods, as far as I know they work
    fine with the NAM, but the DM super mod will have issues.

    3. valadimir, to each his/her own, and yes this thread is primarily a showcase for
    NAM images so people who have never used it can get an idea of what is possible
    and I am not Stephen King, so if you want a great story, stop ready the FREE CJs
    and go buy a real book, I'm trying.

    Updates coming later tonite....

    Redlotus Designs in Concrete has opened a new Regional office.

    also Tropod NAM Services Inc has been working on a new transit system know as Ped Malls
    here is the first use of them.

    as the area starts to progress other developers outside of NAM have desided to lend their ideas to the expansion (these are not part of the NAM, but looked so good I gotta show em! lol)
