Highway Intersections - Not In Town Intersections

[Railroader1970]

All I seem to find for intersections are assets for cities and towns. They don't match the highways nor do they match rural roads either. I'm looking for intersections on the highways and rural roads between communities. Any leads on what exactly to look for?

You mean those intersections between a 4-lane highway and a 2-lane rural road?

There are plenty. Look for YARN and YARNish assets on the DLS.

You can even configure non-working traffic lights (they're for show) if you want on the YARN assets at least.

For actual on and off ramps, there are on-ramp splines which can be placed and blended into the roads. They're not functional as on-/off-ramps, but look good in the part.

Thanks, I'll look for the assets you stated. I guess what I meant was 2 lane roads that are in the Boonies for example and I want to have a T intersection or a cross intersection without any sidewalks for example. Are there any other keywords I would need to type up besides "intersections"?

Keep in mind, unless they've been updated, many of the more elaborate YARNish objects don't work in TANE.

Some of the YARNish Intersections and adaptors were fixed for TANE recently, see post #6 in the thread HERE

Try using 'YARNish Intersection' as your search, then attach the 'YARNish L2' roads. My experience is that the YARN intersections and YARNish roads don't look right when attached, there is a little bump in the road, so I only use the YARNish roads and intersections. After placing the intersection use the '?' tool to change the stop sign/lights, and add the street lamps, it's all menu driven within the asset.

Right on. Thanks for your help Christopher.

I'll keep that in mind. Thanks Matt. I have Trainz2 (2012 which was released for Mac in 2014). I don't have T:A.N.E. anyway. I have a 2011 computer with only 12G of Ram - hardly compatible for the 30G of Ram required for T:A.N.E. (from what I heard anyway).
