![]() ![]() The NAM Team is pleased to present the Classic Draggable Pedmalls, courtesy of Ulisse Wolf and Lucario Boricua.Here's the complete feature list from the NAM 47 release notes: In addition, the NAM Team has also added a number of other features and fixes for the game's transportation system. Ulisse Wolf's second "secret weapon" video for NAM 47 showcases this groundbreaking development.Īs these development show, the NAM Team remains committed to providing a wide range of new options for SimCity 4 transportation, whether you want to add "one more lane, bro", seek to build the ultimate walkable city-or perhaps even both. NAM 47 marks the debut of the Draggable Classic PedMalls feature, which features 8 different styles of PedMalls, all getting arond the game's hardcoded limitations and providing proper pedestrianized RCI zone access-even for Residential zones. However, thanks to the efforts of Pedestrian Revolution Mod developers Lucario Boricua and Ulisse Wolf, this restriction has finally been lifted. This was in part due to the game's long-running (and hardcoded) issues with being able to properly support RCI (Residential, Commercial, Industrial) zoning along completely pedestrian-based networks. However, aside from some minor additions in the early days, and the vastly improved ability to connect PedMalls to the sidewalks along one's surface streets in NAM 33, and the more recent addition of the Midblock Crossings in NAM 45, the pedestrian side of the NAM's transportation toolkit has not seen much development until recently. The NAM has included the Pedestrian Malls feature-PedMalls, for short-since NAM 6 was released, way back in July 2004, which provide the ability to build completely pedestrianized streets. ![]() On the complete opposite side of the spectrum, NAM 47 brings substantial new gameplay options for active transportation to the table. NAM Team member Ulisse Wolf's first "secret weapon" video for NAM 47 showcases all the features of these new wider highways and ramps: NAM 47 also marks the debut of two new types of ramp interfaces, Type A3 and Type D3, which add support for higher-capacity 3-lane ramps to branch off three of the widest highways in the RHW: the RHW-8S, RHW-10S, and the new RHW-12S. ![]() Not only does this new feature provide wider highways, but it also brings with it the prospect of wider ramps. NAM 47 finally ups this limit, with addition of the long-awaited RHW-12S network, featuring 12 lanes (6 per direction), at ground level and two levels of elevation (Level 1/7.5 meters, and Level 2/15 meters). However, its widest network has topped out at 10 lanes (5 per direction) since 2009, when RHW Version 3.0 debuted as part of the NAM 24 release cycle. The RHW has provided users the ability to construct a dizzyingly complex highway systems-including those by popular SC4 YouTuber Haljackey. The RealHighway Mod (RHW) has been a very visible and actively-developed part of the NAM ecosystem for over 15 years, under the auspices of NAM Team lead developer Tarkus. ![]()
