I noticed that the road noise barriers I downloaded didn't do anything, so I tried opening them up with DatGen4 and modifying some values. However, I have not been able to cause any significant changes likely because I do not fully comprehend the exemplars. The barriers are 1x1 and this is what I have... 0x0CAAAEB8, Float32, Customers/Traffic Coefficient, [0.0250000000,2.00000000000.0000000000,0.0000000000] 0x68EE9764, Float32, Pollution radii, [12.0000000000,2.0000000000,0.0000000000,0.0000000000] What should I change? Should I be modifying 0x27812851, SInt32, Pollution at center?

I am using NAM with 47 tiles. Is that causing the problem? How come my lower city works normally (it has subway and bus network). The screenshot is before running the upper city with power, therefore no residents. After running it for a while, there are residential and commercial buildup, but very little commute. I've only seen a few cars and peds going a couple of tiles. And no, this is not my first city, but first time building a network like this and as big as this.

I had a small city that generated so much funds that I quickly gained 7mil, so I screwed around and decided to build a giant grid of monorail stations on the same map. They all have a parking garage next to it, but no bus stops. When I run the city, I get a lot of residential development, but barely any commercial. I check the transportation and found out that nobody is taking the monorail. What am I doing wrong? Is it because I made the intersections and rail changes too complex? Is this a result of one or more of the 3 custom content I used (truck restricter on the residential streets, monorail station and parking lot)? Or is it because I didn't have any bus stops? Oh yeah, ignore the RCI demands. I was limiting low wealth demands by raising the tax to 20%.

thanks

There is this tool that came with NAM. It's the elevated rail and road combo (or whatever the name is). When I have it selected, once in a while, it will crash as I try to lay it. The first time it crashed was when I had it selected and my mouse hovered over an Electronic Toll Booth i had on the road. After the reload, it crashed again after I layed a few pieces of track and was trying to figure out how to lay it over intersections. Anyone know what's going on?

yeah. that's what i do. i thought there would be a quicker way. i like to lay out grids of roads before zoning.

what about auto orientation? i like my houses pointed all 1 way, but when i reach the intersection, the corner lots usually face another way. too bad home key doesn't work for this
