Press the Tab key once using the same Starters tool to access the " MIS Starter Piece", with the same Home/End and yellow lines as the " RHW-4 Starter Piece". Take careful note of the yellow line, which runs on the left inside edge of each carriageway ( or right inside edge if using a UK right-hand drive installation of SimCity 4). Use Home/End keys to switch direction and orientation. RHW-4 requires two Starter Pieces, from the Starters menu item on the Highways menu. The RHW-2 is simple and draggable, accessed from the RHW-2 tool at the top of the Highways menu, just as easy-to-use as Maxis vanilla Road ( RD-2).

That's one of the key reasons that I'll never install the NAM Project Symphony ( Maxis Highway override mod). If you're working on a diagonal interchange, you'll need the old vanilla Maxis Highways ( MHW). IMPORTANT WARNING: The NAM36 RHW interchange tools are designed to work only in orthogonal layouts, not diagonal. The RHW-4 is the RHW/ NAM answer to the Maxis vanilla Highways ( MHW), with the same speed, but 33% higher road capacity. but once again, there's no pedestrian access on highways! MIS roads are basically like a super-fast one way road. The elegant MIS roads might look small, but they are just as powerful as the RHW-2, and are the foundation for high capacity interchanges. The humble looking RHW-2 looks like a Maxis vanilla Road ( RD-2), and acts like it in most ways, but it allows 3 TIMES the speed limit and 2½ TIMES the road capacity! Just be aware that there's no pedestrian access on RHW-2, so you'll need to connect it up to regular Streets, Roads and Avenues to zone residential, commercial and industry lots.

These are powerful features, with flexibility, ease-of-use, high speed limit, and high road capacity. Some of the easiest Real Highway ( RHW) features to use in the beginning are RHW-2 (single tile two-way), RHW-4 (two tile two-way) and MIS (single tile one-way).

On a 6 point scale, the RHW-2 rates as Beginner and the RHW-4 and MIS as Intermediate :īeginner ► Intermediate ► Advanced ► Difficult ► Sophisticated ► Expert NAM36 Tutorial: Starting Out with RHW interchanges and Draggable Ramps (DRI)
