Transportation R.E.R. - Road Euro Revolution 2.0

Renewed and expanded default road set + 4 new road sets for default, france, german, american roads

  1. vampiro
    Requirement(s)::
    • XL Nation Furniture Dependency
    • Cities XXL Community MOD
    Game Version:
    • Cities XXL 2015
    • Cities XL Platinum
    Geographical Tag:
    • Western Europe
    Hello,
    after 6 months of boring work, I'm happy, I finished this neverending mod.

    SCOPE:
    This is a road mod that makes changes to the default road set.
    Default road set has changed its sidewalks, asphalt was made uniform for all in-game roads and some well-known other roads (the most used pharmist experiments, geniusxl boulevards and trams), I also added new road shapes and parking roads to this set.

    There are also other 4 optional road sets for default, france, german and american roads:
    1) south euro historical roads + roundabouts + trams + on road parking,
    2) north euro historical roads + roundabouts + trams + on road parking,
    3) derelict roads + trams + on road parking,
    4) country roads + roundabouts​

    Together with roads, there are some pedpaths and plazas too.
    Roads have also some of the most used european street signs.
    Different sets, different prices.
    All roads can be built on water.
    This mod, allows the construction of smooth roads for default and historical sets.
    Bridges have less strict rules to be built.


    TRIBUTE AND THANKS:
    Skimbo: The road mod from this "ancient" modder inspired me to start this challenge and also I used and re-edited many textures from it.
    XLNation Staff: Their dependencies pack gave me lot of quality furniture material.
    Monty: He shared his unfinished road mod allowing me to add 2 new beautifull roads inspired on his work.


    INSTALLATION GUIDE:
    If u have, remove old R.E.R. version

    Extract patches from .zip files and put them into your game "PACK" folder.
    I suggest NOT to use a subfolder of "PACK" folder to minimize problems with other mods.

    "zzz_vampiro_road_euro_revolution_base_pack_v2.0.patch" is the main and mandatory pack.
    The other 7 files are optional but need the mandatory patch and, by their name, you can understand they contain the roads sets.
    U can add only one set or some or all or even none (in this case u only get new descriptions and parameters for the in-game default roads).



    DEPENDENCIES:
    Because some R.E.R. components uses or modifies works of other modders, u need to install their mods too.

    Cities-xxl players need:

    Cities-xl players need:

    All players needs:
    1) XL Nation furniture dependency pack 1.7
    2) z_pharmist_treebug_fix_v1.00
    3) from Pharmist road experiments take only
    a) Pharmist_6_LANE_ROAD_v3.50.PATCH
    b) Pharmist_8_LANE_ROAD_v5.50.PATCH
    c) Pharmist_MRTNRLN_AVE-2_ARD-3_OWR-3_v1.00​


    MENU LOCATION:
    Default roads are found inside standard road menu.
    Other roads are found inside road menu with custom content button activated.
    Plazas are, as usual, into the decoration menu.

    NOTES:
    Only for cities-xl
    UIM admits by default only 100 thumbs for transportation menu
    If u use RER, so many roads + road from other mods could overfill the menu and some elements are no more visible.
    I changed UIM parameter manually to 150.

    Go to:
    ...\Focus Home Interactive\Cities XL Platinum\Data\Interface\panels\constructionmenu2

    Edit file XLN_UI_constructionmenu3.lua

    This is the part i changed:



    if (string.find(request, "TransportLine") ~= nil) then

    for i = 1, table.getn(result) do
    number = number + 1

    if (number > 150) then
    break
    end
    CONSTRUCTIONMENU2:AddPrototype(result);
    end

    else


    for i = 1, table.getn(result) do
    number = number + 1

    if ((XLNUIM.Is500Thumbs) and (number > 500)) then
    break
    end
    if ((XLNUIM.Is500Thumbs == false) and (number > 150)) then
    break
    end

    CONSTRUCTIONMENU2:AddPrototype(result);
    end

      Perhaps You over filled the road menu.

      1) Watch on mod "overview" page the NOTES.
      2) Check if you installed all DEPENDENCES for your version of the game.
      3) Try to install only the main pack containing only the default roads ("zzz_vampiro_road_euro_revolution_base_pack_v2.0.patch" )

    A nice and hugely realistic stuff, vampiro!
    Finally there's an opportunity to build old cities and derelict industrial areas as they should look like!
    Thanks / Grazie / Merci / Danke / Dziekuje! :-)
    But there's one issue, about interaction of this mod with Pepino's Decorative Railtracks. After I installed RER, all the railtrack icons migrated, at least I could find stations and tracks themselves, but I couldn't find switches (e.g. 2-to-3 track switch). Is there any solution to this problem?

    Awesome. I fully satisfied my favorite European tram road (although there are no intersection rails and wires). Your other is perfect. One of the best mods. Thank you for your hard work. Your path is the best element of old Europe.

    A good mod, but the default texture hurt my eyes, that would change them to better.

    I'm a little bit late for the review, but this is a total game changer! I love the realism it adds to our cities.

    For criticism, that would be perfect if the derelict roads had roundabouts as well

    So, all I need to do is to delete the previous version one? Will it affect my cities?

      U can remove old version safely. But obviously, u need to install from the 2.0 version all the roads sets u used in ur city . If u install all the 2.0 files, u cut every problem (I hope... :-P )
