    The reason I haven't been that worried about all the missing features is that I have faith in the community's creativity and modding skills to make anything possible. You sir, are the payoff for my faith. Thank you so much!

      It's how UA-cam works. A video with a lot of views will keep getting suggested no mater how outdated or old it is. More views, make new views, and with even more views YT suggests it even more. A never-ending cycle which prevents new, good, videos form coming up. Hope one day they fix their AI.

  • @DragoNYC

    Thanks for this I created a tunnel with the High Density Street Car and wasn't sure how it was created. They should create a patch that would give the option if you want to create a tunnel or underpass. Thanks again

  • @perafilozof
    @perafilozof  11 років тому

    yes, exactly, whenever you make a big piece of road it will go sharpy up or down. They have to be minimal. Also you have to go back whenever you make a strait new piece or going up if you're trying to go down. It has to be continuous in one direction.

  • @perafilozof
    @perafilozof  11 років тому

    You can zone on roads that are lower or higher than the other elevation. Just not too close to an overpass or underpass part of the road.

  • @perafilozof
    @perafilozof  11 років тому

    Have you tried the trick from the video multi-city tutorial #14? It uses another way to make overpasses after you dig down with the initial road.

  • @perafilozof
    @perafilozof  11 років тому

    They have decided to give it as a free update with the 7.0 patch. And not only roads but train tracks and street cars to.
    It makes sense since they couldn't pull it off as a DLC since we already found a way to do it ourselves.

  • @Yonkage
    @Yonkage 11 років тому

    Interesting that the capability for these advanced structures is coded into the game, but not easily useable due to the lack of terraforming tools. Almost as if they thought gamers would be too stupid to figure it out.

  • @perafilozof
    @perafilozof  11 років тому

    It can be that the park is not deep enough for a tunnel to be made. Or it can be that you just missed the sweet spot in some place(when you started the park line, when you pulled the road onto the park, are you holding the shift key while the mouse is on the park ect. )

  • @perafilozof
    @perafilozof  11 років тому +1

    it's still possible, I did it just this morning in a new city. Just remember that the trick is to place minimal road pieces and each piece has to have the same down angle as the one before it.

  • @perafilozof
    @perafilozof  11 років тому

    Depends how you do it. If your using one of the tricks from this video, it is possible but it requires specific land elevation. It's not something that can be done everytime everywhere.

  • @perafilozof
    @perafilozof  11 років тому

    It may be that your mouse sensitivity is too high to allow you to make small road pieces. Try lowering it. Or if that doesn't help try going forward and then back with each new road piece before releasing the mouse button. That way you will be able to see more of the changes on the land. And make sure to be zoomed in close enough to.

  • @perafilozof
    @perafilozof  11 років тому

    I haven't tried it myself, but avenues can make tunnels I am just not sure that you could place it onto that park and make another turn.

    You have to dig down more. Tunnels have a certain depth at which they can be built. If you are already deeper but it is still not working you are probably just making small placement errors with the parks.

    Are you holding the shift key while making the next piece of the road? And even when you do sometimes it doesn't work and just have to delete the last part of the road, sometimes even start over.

  • @perafilozof
    @perafilozof  11 років тому

    Patch 7.0 is going to have adjustable height for roads. So you will be able to build a tunnel, a normal road or an overpass at the touch of a button.
