[stevemunoz21 0]

ive been playing simcirt4 for a while and i am still a noob. I just play it from time to time. anyways, in the latest NAM install , while playing I have noticed that when trying to build overpasses over a rhw, there is none!! its weird, Because on my old computer there was avenue overpasses, road, etc. but now there is none and i have to do an underground tunnel and its just not my perfered method. but anyone know why? maybe during install i am doing something wrong? the overpasses do not show up on the menus. please help.

Not sure what your last NAM version was, but if you mean the ***/RHW pieces, they're still there, but I don't remember if they are installed by default (maybe not). If so, they should be toward the end of the Road menu. If not, you may need to re-install NAM and select them. Either way, it may not be necessary because the Draggable Viaducts will produce overpasses when dragged over RHW.

Many older pieces are now depreciated, meaning newer, better solutions exist for them. Such options are not installed by default, but can be optionally selected if you still need them.

However in this case the flexible road viaducts does everything of what was previously handled by puzzle pieces, in one menu. There are ramp and on-slope height transitions, after which you drag Road, OWR or Ave as desired to connect them up and can drag overpasses just by building the network as usual. I’d highly recommend experimenting with these as they will make building overpasses much easier.
