I have all the dependencies. Not sure why this is happening. What could cause this?

Yes, I do. Seems to pop-in and out, like sometimes it works but sometimes not. I think it might have something to do with the Industrial Revolution Mod.

Change direction of neighborhood connection?
unseen4ce posted a topic in SimCity 4 General Discussion
Both ends of my rail system both leave the city. There isnt a connection coming into the city. Like this <<<<--------city------->>>>> whereas it should be <<<<------city--------<<<<<. So the the rail passes through the city. So the rail is never used because both connections point outwards at either end. I cant find how to rotate the connection point, to change it's direction. When I create a track I have to drag it to the edge and it automatically creates a connection that leaves the city. However on my road connection there is one leaving and one coming in. -

You can see that with the road traffic comes-in one way and leaves the city on the other side. However with the rail both arrows are leaving the city, and there is no way to change that. -
It appears my trains are mostly invisible. I had two train mods installed which added new trains to the game. But have since deleted them. Is there anyway to view your Simtropolis download history so that I can see what other mods could cause this? Can a mod somehow permanently change a train model? Not sure how to fix this.

What is this on my train tracks?
unseen4ce replied to unseen4ce's topic in SimCity 4 General Discussion
Well sometimes the download names are different then the names you might expect, meaning that it can be difficult to just search 'trains' and find the object you want. Anyways, thanks for the info. So this is a 'train checker' ...lol, never heard of such a thing. Seems like a strange thing for a game to have but I am glad it isnt an issue with my install. Thanks again. -
This sunken train station.

'Implementing Impeachment' (City Loading Message)
unseen4ce posted a topic in SimCity 4 General Discussion
It -seems- like someone added this to the game. I am not sure what mod this is. I am thinking it is a political message regarding Trump in the USA. The arrogance of doing this. As if everyone has the same political views as you. As if I want my game soured by your take on politics. I am apolitical in a sense. I doubt I could even fully imagine the mindset of the person who did this. LOL. Really disappointing to have this impede on the game experience. Oh and dont assume I support Trump because I dont want to see some idiotic political message while loading the game. -
I use CTRL-X and then type 'drawpaths' push enter. Nothing happens. The cheat box remains with the text typed into it. Tried several times. I then downloaded the extra cheats plugin. I right-click and select 'drawpaths', it works but I cannot turn it off. I try to select 'drawpaths' again but it does not turn it off. Anyone know how to use the drawpaths cheat?

'Implementing Impeachment' (City Loading Message)
unseen4ce replied to unseen4ce's topic in SimCity 4 General Discussion
Thank-you. I have only been building my road network thus far and have not done anything else. I suppose it was silly of me to make such an assumption since I really am a noob to this game. -
'Implementing Impeachment' (City Loading Message)

If you are right than that is an incredible coincidence. I have to wonder what the context could possibly be within the game. How it could possibly relate to the game in any ways. Regardless, I said "it seems" before giving my commentary, accepting that this was possible though it did seem unlikely. -
I tried connecting to a ground highway using the single-sided parallel ramps, and as I moved the cursor towards the highway it just wouldnt match up as it should. I tried rotating the piece but it wouldnt line up and couldnt be placed. Pic below. I found a video demonstrating the way it used to work. I did everything exactly as the video, same depth, same pieces. At approx 2.00 minutes you will see him place the same piece, it just clicks into place easily.

NAM single-side parallel ramps bug?
unseen4ce replied to unseen4ce's topic in NAM & Transit Networks
After some practice I did get all of them to work. -
Before placing the avenue over the highway I made sure that the land was flat all around. Yet when I place the bridge it makes the land slope at the edges of the highway, as can be seen in the picture. It isnt a straight bridge but it slopes towards the highway and then places the bridge. Is there anyway to sink a highway and have a nice straight bridge over the top? I am using a slope mod. In this video I can see that this guy has sunken networks with small straight bridges... (even at the very bottom of the thumbnail you can see a straight bridge).
-
I used the same pieces as the video I posted in that thread. But I did manage to get the whole thing to work using your instructions @Naomi57 . So maybe the pieces have changed. But it works now and looks good, much better than the pre-fab one in the OP. And that is what matters. Thanks guys.
-
@Naomi57 At what depth did you set your sunken highway?

NAM single-side parallel ramps bug?
unseen4ce replied to unseen4ce's topic in NAM & Transit Networks
I have tried another area and still couldnt get it to work. I then tried to attach to a highway that was oriented diagonally and it worked. It doesnt look right but it did work on the diagonal for some reason. So I dont think it is working properly. It should be working on the orthogonal not the diagonal. The ground around the piece was all level except for the sunken highway before the piece was placed. -
Thanks, yeah those look great. I was playing around with those pieces and got something similar, so I would definitely recommend those also. Edit: You have to be careful to have the right height to ensure it forms a straight bridge when it connects.
-
Yes, that is the sort of puzzle piece I was looking for. Thanks. I also did manage to find a couple youtube videos. In-case anyone else wants a flat-bridge. I also found this mod, which might help:
-
I disabled my slope mods and this is what I got. I am thinking that perhaps I have to try something other than an avenue. I am also looking into using elevated rail and other tools for slopes rather than slope mods. Going to have to keep experimenting.

You should see arrows show the direction of travel on your roads.
