Im glad to be back on topic (and not on trains),go NWM! ;D :thumbsup: :thumbsup: ;D :thumbsup: :thumbsup:
Tarkus im drolling over that last picture :D
Look at my picture of what NMAVE-4 would look like. A mod I found on simtropolis and I never used it until now.

I think only Tarkus has the release authority. The NMAVE does not have draggable intersections yet, and diagonals still yet to be pathed. Before the NMAVE, you can still use the TRAM in Road for a single tile avenue.

I forgot tram in road puzzle piece ::)
And will the new OWR networks be able to transition to RHW and MIS?

I assuming that traffic lights are out of the question because of how many networks the team is working on.....

Technically, it ends up being a NAM Team decision in the end, and is based on a variety of factors.  The most critical thing is whether or not things check out in testing.  Additionally, if there are multiple plugins at similar points in development going on simultaneously, generally, their release has ended up synchronized to minimize the number of public RUL controller updates needed. 

As mentioned before, the NMAVE-4 is currently without intersections, so at this point, it wouldn't really make sense to release it . . . and besides, we've already got 10 other networks coming out for the first release. ;)

Likely only the OWR-1 at this point.

The situation with traffic lights is described in FAQ Item #12.  It's a low priority at this point, and I'd imagine there would be a considerable amount of disagreement as to which intersections should/shouldn't be signalized.  It'll likely depend on how the rest of development goes and if there's time/energy to spend on all those T21s before the first release.

Darn you bastards! I have to buy a new key board now, it got drooled and broke. =) Just kidding, but it isn't far from that with all the new pics. It really seem to be very close to release this NWM. =)

Good to see all this NWM progress activity gives hope for release in the close future compared to 2 years ago when it was mainly just a whisper in the air. Question about NWM in general though..will it allow networks run across it like streets,owr,rhw,rail,el rail, and glr?

TJ1

You know I wouldnt be suprised (sarcasim)  ;D if The NWM,RHW 4.0,Tuleps,or the next Nam releases April. ::)

I'd venture to say that the probability of an April 1 release has been cut in half by your post  ::).

Yes, it'll be possible to have orthogonal intersections with all those networks. 

Here's a peek at the MAVE-4 intersections with Street and Rail:

Even if you were right, I'd never say.  $%Grinno$%  If for no other reason than the fact that I don't even know myself. ;)  We like to surprise people--even ourselves.
