3ddz, are you there? Maybe you could have one gantry over both tracks. Ask if you want a pic.

This project seems to have slowed down recently, either that, or there is a lot of work going on behind the scenes

Oh, PLEASE say you can get this mod for the 2004 original version!

[vester_DK 477]

Sorry you need the Rush Hour Expansion, becauce it's a replacement of the mono rail that comes with that (and the Deluxe version). Hurry down a buy the expansion, it's cheap now a days. It's been released as a Classic.

Sorry...$%&^! question here. Is there any mod that I can use to simply speed up the El-Train to be HSR, and slow down the passenger train to act as GLR? probably not, but I thought I'd ask anyway. Im not overly thrilled about giving up my monorail, as I use it quite a bit, but would be more than happy to give up El-Rail, as I never use it. Unless of course the next NAM has draggable GLR

Sorry, also I'm sure I'm not the first person to ask this, but is there a site where I can dl the current HSRP beta (Alpha?) Thanks in advance.

[vester_DK 477]

Do you use NAM, Network Addon Mod ? It's sound like you do. There is a series of NetworkAddonMod_Traffic_Plugin*.dat files. (Only one should be installed) In them, there is some values called Max speeed by Network for *, which controls the speed for the different network (* being monorail, streeet ect) These can be altered with iLive Reader which can be found in the Modds & Download section (Link in the top menu).

btw: Instead of the second post, you should have edited the first post and added (forum rules).

Please read  the thread before asking questions (again another forum rule). Check out the previous page, first post.

Thanks Vester. However, if you are talking about your post that says it isn't released yet, it is on page 19, 2 pages back for me. Either way, thank you for your help.

dude i gave up my monorail in a heart beat. Monorail in my view is a waste of space on my menu. I could easly use elvated rail witch i don't use. So I would give up your monorail if i was you. The only bad thing is you can't make turns with the HRS unless you remove the mod make the turn then put the mod back in.

on a side note... whens the station going to be released!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[MaybeMemories06 0]

Well, I was big on monorail, because i dont like the way El-Rail looks. Too um....ghetto....i guess. I'm not trying to offend anyone, thats just my personal bias. However, if the draggable GLR ever comes out, and if the UDI problems with some of the GLR-Sub transitions are fixed, I would gladly give up my Monorail for HSR. The no turns concept is kinda crap, tho. But I do understand the effort needed for it. Basically I'm babbling, but if GLR updates come out, I'll take the HSR to get rid of the mono.

I have no problems making turns with the hsr beta. it just takes some getting used to as the it needs wider turns.

When you get a corner that doesnt look like it fits, fiddle with it a bit and you will see the yellow dragged part go all squiggley; thats when it will make the proper looking curve.

My problem lies with the UDI, the train doesnt seem to be able to make the turn.

[MaybeMemories06 0]

anyone have a way i can get the beta? or, as VDK has alluded, is it only available to a select few?

[vester_DK 477]

Here is a link to the alfa-version of the project. I found by looking back through the thread, please do the same. Then you will follow forum rules and you will not fill up threads with meanless posts.

[MaybeMemories06 0]

I am sorry. I looked at the post you told me to look at, and couldnt find anything about HSR.

[E.J.C 9]

is there any news on this HSRP being included in the next NAM??

or, will this be a seperate-release???

[warrior 169]

 noticed that when you drag high speed rail over highway the texture goes wierd

Sorry, I have to say that I could not find it (and I moderate forums elsewhere)...I've looked endlessly for it, including scrolling looking for URL and/or links, but saw neither at a glance that seemed to be it.  The search is of little help in narrowing down to a single post (as opposed to whole thread).

It's really quite difficult to locate some of these things.

It would be nice if the first post in the thread were edited to include the link to the most recent version, or if it were periodically posted (such as when a page changes) so that people could more easily find it.

At any rate, it seems a bit high in expectation to not receive a few requests for it, indeed if I had not seen this post a veteran forumer (elsewhere) as myself, I would have asked the same.

His post was far from a " meanless post"...honestly if someone has tracked down the thread, they have done far more than most when it comes to searching out where to get the file.

And for the record, I've been lurking in this thread for more than half the pages (and read back through most posts from there), and still missed it entirely.

Anyway, real point of this post: Can we get a link posted in the first post on the thread to make lives easier for people who want the alpha?

[owenluby 1]

im sorry if this qunksestion has been answered but is the high speed rail mod able to be downloaded? This will probably sound like a nooby question but i cant be bothered to read every post! any help would be great. tha

sorry found it!

[LP 1]

There hasn't been a propor update in ages. So whats the deal? Is this thing gunna get done, or did you get bored of it and walk away without saying anything like EA did to the entirety of SC itself? Theres many people waiting for this to be officaly released, yet not a single word has been said in ages. So, out with it allready, allright?

[jplumbley 5]

I think it is going to be a NAM plugin LP

[LP 1]

It will most defintely NOT be in the NAM. It overides a transit system which many people may not want. It will most likely be a stand-alone mod.

So... anyone else?

[prince_of_sims 0]

it can be in the NAM.... as an optional plugin, with a warning about what it does....

[jplumbley 5]

Thank you for the really rude reply LP maybe you should think before you speak next time

[lrfox 2]

If you had the first NAM, you had an installer in which you could choose exactly what you placed in your cities. There was also a readme that was a mile long, but was necessary. i'm sure this will be the same way. in anycase, this is a cool project the modders are doing an excellent job. can't wait to see it, keep it up guys.

*edit* @ jplumbly- lol i didn't even notice the rudeness until i saw your post (two minutes before mine, i guess i was typing while you posted it). @LP No reason for the snide remarks from anybody, especially when they are trying to be helpful. If you don't want anyone's opinion, don't post. it makes it comical that you were rude, and SO wrong. look through this thread, it's posted a bunch of times that this is going to be a NAM release.

[3ddz 17]

The reason why there are no updates here is that im still waiting for the path files to be done.

It seems that there are some problems with the pathing. 

And i think its worthles to work any further on it unless the pathing is done.

I contacted Swamper 77 recently and he is on it.
