Exactly what I was gonna say.I was planing to do it myself but like you said before,no idea how to mod the thing but it should be simple enough to do. Maybe someone will go and fix it so all of the amenities Hospital,School,Police Station,and Fire station will be full large city radius and repost it. Hell i'm sure it would benefit for alot of people who don't like building all 4 of them and save room XD.

Actually this is what I am talking about.If you know whether there is another version of this that has a much bigger radius or covers a large city entirely that would be awesome. https://www.simtropolis.com/stex/details.cfm?id=17843

no one?

Does anyone know if there is a lot plop that has all of the essentials in one building. School,fire station,hospital,police station? I hate building all of them cause it takes up so much room where I could place more residential or commercial buildings. And I could have the satisfaction of just having to build one instead of 4.

If you notice in the first picture of my first post it shows the highway in the middle but then it shows another highway right next to it but its been cut in-half from the default maxis highway. Did they take it out in the updated NAM or is it still in the program cause I can't find that piece....

Indeed thats where I got it,and yes it is very nice!

So I was looking at this thread and it shows how people make these complex interchanges with the NAM mod. So I thought it would be kool to make my own interchange but whenever I try and make one it just turns out like crap and it isn't complex like the ones in the thread. No i'm not trying to copy the ones on the thread, I just wanna make my own style of good interchanges but it seems so complicated trying to make it look good and I just go back to the regular way of making just one long highway with tons of exits. Does anybody have any good advice on how I could make a decent interchange?

So I just installed sim city 4 since I stopped playing it for a while and decided to start playing it again. Anyway I loaded up the game and it seemed to be lagging just a little. This has never happend before when I played originally. Anyway I choose my region and start a city but when I go to bulldoze everything these streaking lines come up and I am thinking wtf? So I just ignore it and continue but then all of a sudden I will start to build roads and its like the games grassy areas are overlapping my roads. I know they are being built but they are covered by the grass. Not all areas of the map do this but parts of it. Has anyone else had this problem before? My sim city disc is in perfect condition so I know it isn't it. So I might be guessing its my pc. YES my pc does have the required specs to play this game!

Now this is what I am talking about! HUGE over the top interstate/highway! lolololol XD

Thats what i was using.A sandbox region but some of the pieces are just stubborn as hell and don't wanna snap together like they are supposed to. Maybe when a new updated version of it comes out it will fix some of the bugs. Also when I was using the 5-lane interstate it had these small arrows that would change different directions everytime I tried to add a new piece to the road and would go a glitchy on me. MEH...o well I'll just wait till a new update for it comes out. Also that would be an awesome idea.10 lanes per direction except you don't have to build 2 different highways and it would just be on big puzzle piece with 10 lanes on each side. Like the default highways on maxis with it being 1 puzzle piece but both sides are going in the either direction.

Well I can safely say that the RHW is fail in my opinion....it is just to complicated and the roads don't wanna snap together like they are supposed to.....and it gets very annoying going back and trying to fix it all up again....I plan to stick with just the NAM mod and since the default highways are easier to put together and NAM mod is easier to use.Its probably just me not used to using the RHW. Anyway I might just made my own Interstate road as a project. So that way they connect with the maxis default highway and the off-ramps are compatible with it. Im just not sure where to start though. Also does anyone else have anything else that would be a interstate but isn't the RHW?

Link?

I have always wondered......where are the interstates at? I know they already have highways in the game that they consider interstates but I am talking about the 6-7 lane ones on each side and hold tons and tons of traffic.The big ass ones! Im surprised no one has come out with such a road type yet.Nam definitely has enough road ways and different highways models,etc,etc. But where are the interstates!? It would definitely have to be at least 4-5 squares wide and it would definitely be good for congestion.

Well like I said before its just an idea. I thought maybe we could make it happen since sim city as we know it is dead and since sim city 4 plus simtropolis is the only thing keeping it alive at the moment we could have a new online mode/mod to hold us over until the new sim city game comes out.If anyone is up to the task go for it. It will probably be the only thing that keeps sim city 4 from dying besides simtropolis.

I was actually gonna ask that.....if sim city 5 or whatever next game is gonna be called. When it is supposed to be out......ea and maxis are taking waaay to long,or is there not gonna be a next sim city? I feel your pain brother......
