@Tracker: Looks like the NAM RCM needs realigned T21s... I also spotted this when I first tried it...

Yeah. All of my stop signs are like that.

jdenm8

Yeah, some of them were repositioned, some weren't.
I've got the same problem with the LHD pack I use, the signs are out on the road.

Most RHD intersections were changed. No LHD ones were.

That doesn't see fair. Hopefully they will all be fixed in the next version. RHD and LHD.

Some TuLEP pieces are getting LHD T21s thanks to Jondor, but not many.

The problem is that all the devs play RHD and see little reason to convert anything more than paths and textures to LHD.

I would have thought that since there is a majority of NAM users that don't actually live in a RHD enviroment that there would have been more LHD inspired T21's as well as other pieces.

Well what did you have in mind? Like roadsigns or something? There were Euro signs designed for the SPM, but that project kind of is on the backburner. Otherwise, Mrtnrln has done multiple international lights, and T21 modding, as have others. Does anyone remember that European mod that uses the red and white triangle signs with the black icon in the middle?

jdenm8

Well, I've always repeatedly griped over traffic lights and boomgates being on the wrong sides. Ebina's T21 update pack (the one linked to in J-Dub's signature) is hopelessly out of date too and Plunderer's Rail Catenary mod overrides the corrected boomgates in nearly every instance.

I'm also talking general LHT (Drive on the left, like Japan, Australia and the UK), the normal stuff, but on the other side. MRTNRLN's international lights also don't work in LHT, just like Heblem's HD lights (They're on the wrong side, big help that is).

I'm also not looking for European signs. They're too European.

It's more a lack of time. Remember, we have real life commitments to juggle too.

That's completely true too, and kind of contributes to the original reasoning I gave.

Oh, and BTW, is this thread only for SC4 oddities or can we post non-SC4 ones?

Well, it's show us your game oddities, but I wouldn't mind seeing a non-SC4 one.

dunno if someone has already posted that kind of bug in here
but i try.

here are my special railway bridges with a revolutionary engineering method !!!!
no useless bridge construction elements or pillars are needed anymore



Terring7

I fixed your pictures and reduced their size a bit :)





By the way, how did you build those antigravity bridges? ???

That is an interesting technique, though you should use an imagehost that lets you hotlink ;) You should also consider making a tutorial on how you do that, it's pretty interesting.

Wow.. that's very interesting. I'll go and try it out myself now. Good find.

Right click this: (in his post) and select open in new tab or something like that to view them. I can't see them either unless I do that.

But I don't have an "Open in new tab" option... :'( (And yet I'm still crafty enough to figure out how to see the images)

For those who are wondering, it's a weird trick to get floating rail.

Maybe someone can make an overhanging bridge model to place on a lot...
