More to the point: Why is there a rail line running under a canal?! That is a "fun image" in of itself.

Pegasus released a mod that adds dirt edges to railroad tracks a while back. Look for it on the STEX.

That actually happened to me the other day.  Why I tried to click on the road tool instead of just hitting R like I always do, I don't know.  The PedMall isn't even close to the road tool.  Oh well.

The firemen  under the bridge and the traffic stuck in the roundabout pictures are hilarious!

Strange things happen when you try to build a road in a very mountainous terrain with the tunnel and slope mod installed :

You have to upload pictures to a server somplace to be able to see them, it won't work if they stay on your home computer.

At last, the source of the trash in simcity has been found: Trash factories.

Welcome to Simtropolis Quickcola! 39.gifI hope you enjoy yourself here! 10.gif

How u do this??? can u drive boats from U-Drive-It over tracks???!!!???quote>

Those are the PEG Channel Stream Kit and Accesories which can be found here and here.

ive searched from such a mod, where do i get???quote>

The Tunnel and Slope Mod used to be available in this thread here but after the site upgrade, the link was removed and I'm not sure where it is now. I also recommend downloading the NAM (Network Add On Mod) which adds many more transport options to the game (roundabouts, trams and much more), it can be found here for the PC and here for the Mac.

How many versions of this game are there? i nvr seen nothing even close to water ways like that in my gamequote>
 

Those waterways are the BSC Brick Canals Set which can be found here.

HOW?quote>

That is the PEG Garbage Chute which can be found here .

These downloads require Sim City 4 + Rush Hour or Sim City 4 Deluxe to work and many more downloads can be found on the STEX (SimTropolis EXchange) which can be found here.

Thank you very much sim1234. I just took an hour to read up and download both CSK and BSC sets, (tried to get all the adds, even copy pasted the descriptions to not get all mixed up when i install) 

Question; will the mods conflict each other?

Im starting to get a hang of this site, Man! theres alot of stuff to try out, its gonna take days just messing around with the two sets I got before i actually use em in a city.

And this is just the tip of the iceburg, I mean like there is way to much stuff on this site for me to to try even half.

I know this is not the proper thread to ask (I'm sorry, just i dont wanna be in too many threads n get lost) but I'd really like to find that slopes mod (I tried the search tool n came up empty)

Been wanting to do this: (see pic) since the very beginning of simcity and never could, there is a train track going through my in real life town and most the roads go under the tracks in this manner)

Thanks again

One day in the ancient village of Masondale, the villagers awoke to something strange. The sign that had once stood on the main street had begun to slowly. It continued to move for many more nights, until it was no longer in the town.

Because of this strange occurance, the village elders got together to discuss the issue. They were befuddled. What could've possible made the sign move? So they sent for the great sign master.

Then the Great sign master came. He said "I am not sure what caused the sign to move, but this is craziest bug i have ever seen in my long, long life."

after the incident they were sure that the new Aberlyn-Dalhousie Expressway had upset the spirits. So everyone went to pray and give blessings at the Great Llama Shrine.

That's done with morifari's Elevated Rail Embankment 30 Final Version and an elevated highway.

Yep, that's normal. Industry doesn't need a freight rail station if it is directly next to railway tracks.

I guess Maxis made that on purpose to simulate industrial complexes with rail access, which are by no means rare e.g. where I live. The only difference is that in reality, of course there are separate tracks that lead onto the premises, closed off by a gate and opened when e.g. a few freight cars are pushed into the factory complex to be loaded or unloaded. However, Maxis couldn't include such details because they didn't want to bother players with laying rail access for every third factory, and they wanted to have their lots as versatile as possible, I guess. That's probably why industry next to rail can send its freight over the railroad tracks without a station. Just an educated guess, of course.
