    Hi there really like the mod. Thought I'd leave a bit of a comment on a problem I had. I resolved my own issue but I thought it might still belong here. I know there is a warning, but I think you need to put a bigger exclamation point by the option to alter the boot.ini. Putting that /3GB switch in my boot ini did terrible things to my system. The video driver/directX couldn't work properly any longer and try to run anything in my normal (1920x1080) resolution caused instant crashes. It caused the sound driver to sometimes bug out and crash, sometimes it would take the whole system with it. It also seem to be causing some network weirdness. Eventually a crash corrupted a system file and I ended up trying a repair install (which of course wouldn't work). Anyways it was all around pretty bad. It wasn't till after skimming one of the NAM documents the searching google that I found out where that edit was made and what that switch did. I got rid of the 3GB switch and things are back to working order. I just thought I'd leave this here in case any one else runs into problems. Someone who's less savvy than me could very well not know what was wrong (the symptoms could have come from a number of things). So ya, put bigger warning on that prompt cause it can mess your system up bad. Since my system is a little older, and it likely isn't an issue on newer systems, here are my specs for reference. WinXP Service Pack3 4 gigs DDR2 ram Asus M2N-E motherboard AMD Athlon 64 X2 cpu Nvidia GeForce 660ti 2 gigs Creative labs X-fi fatality soundcard Maybe it'll help somebody else if they run into the same issue. Cheers

    Ahh ok thanks. I've got it now. @Developers it seems clear how to use draggable FAR in retrospect, but you may want to alter the documentation to make it absolutely clear. Something like "Draggable FAR uses patterns made with the normal road tool to create smooth curves and diagonal roads." Personally I was searching for a separate tool and within the puzzle pieces tab for a way to use this. Edit: Ooh I forgot. This is this first time I've tried this mod, and it's really awesome! Adds whole new life to playing the game. Great work.

    Can someone explain how exactly to use the draggable far in NAM31? People talk about it, the documentation says it's there but I can't seem to find it. I can find the puzzle pieces well enough, but not whatever draggable FAR uses. Is it a hotkey? I don't know. Appreciate any help.
