Maxis Highway Override (Project Symphony) - Development & Support

[DJSun1981]

I cannot build the Ramps, the Prefab Interchange Componets, Ground & Elevated Highway and Curves.

If I click on them, I get a red arrow and nothing happens

But I can drag the ground and elevated highway, this works fine

That's a typical sign of an outdated NAM controller being present in your plugins folder. Did you run Cleanitol when installing the new NAM?

[DJSun1981]

This is my RHW-Menue now:



yes, the cleanitool started by itself

It looks to me like you still have the old RHW files hanging around in there; I'd recommend you deleted your Network Addon Mod folder and reinstalled.

Yes, there are most definitely old NAMs around your plugins folder. I can tell them from the icons; you still see the old icons, hence why you also got all these duplicates (there must be at least three unnecessary duplicate NAM instances)

It doesn't seem like Symphony is in my game at all. I still have those old maxis interchanges and the normal MHW icons. When I drag a stretch of MHW, the textures from the Maxis Highway replacement mod show up, no RHW textures.

I even went through the installation again to see if I missed anything, and I had checked off all of the options. But there was still not any Symphony stuff when I restarted the game.

Any suggestions would be highly appreciated. Thanks.

That's weird. Can you check your "z___NAM" folder to see if it's there?

Where can I find the unless files, the cleanitool dont find it

You'll be able to tell if a file's old by the Date Modified; in the Network Addon Mod folder, the new files will have a more recent Date Modified than the old ones. If the problem persists, delete your Network Addon Mod folder and reinstall.

Do you mean your highways look like the Maxis Highway Retexture mod, which will leave your Maxis Highways with 3, retextured lanes?

With the standard installation does not seem to be there.

What I ended up having to do is totally delete the old network addon folder in the documents plugin folder, then do an install of this version and then everything showed up.  Might want to try that.

That's because the standard installation doesn't install any overrides for NAM items, including Symphony and Euro Textures.

[sunv123]

I can say that the Symphony file is not in the "NetworkAddonMod" folder.

I'll try your suggestions now.

[DJSun1981]

So, I can delate all NAM-files, wich have got an older date as 03.03.2013, am I right?

[Shadow Assassin]

I suggest you use the NAM installer to uninstall NAM 31 as well. That way you know for certain that everything is removed, as it's able to keep track of what has been installed.

Then reinstall NAM31. This will be a clean install, it will minimise conflicts.

Once this is done, you won't need to worry about uninstalling it for a new version.



Also, shouldn't this topic be renamed to fit the official NAM name (Maxis Highway Override)?

Exactly ... the same name as the option to put into operation.


Of course the information contained in the Readme could clarify these things but as we all know ... who's read the Readme?


Leveraging elevated RHW to ground also has the same problems as curves 45..

[drjumbajookiba]

Great job on the Maxis Highway Override(Project Symphony) it works realy well

[AngryBirdsFan436]

Welp, there are some bugs like this on the L2 to L0 T-Stack interchange:

Still, the best NAM release EVAR!! And erm, will that be fixed in NAM 31.1?

[arl85]

just a quick question: I'm reading the "PS User Manual.pdf" included in documentation and found that MHW are a bit higher than ground level (0.75 I think) so a special connector is needed for connecting it with RHW bridges, otherwise the connection appears strange.
I also found that the same happens for connections between PS ramps and MIS: if you connect MIS with ramps you have a very small slope between the ramp's end and MIS start.
Nothing terrible, but still visible. Is there any way to avoid it or any solution expected in future?

[Shadow Assassin]

Of course it will.
