We all love to see massive traffic jams in SC4. Show us your traffic jams here!

This one was obviously created with traffic generators (and so was the last one, for that matter).

What are your most plagued cities as far as traffic goes?

Your NWM looks great. Where did you get that gray texture though?
Your traffic generators are wild. On the second pic there are headlights yet no cars in the grass.
This is mine:

I believe it's just a re-texture mod for the Maxis Highway.

I used that texturing mod for a long time. Now I use a different one, though. I should probably go back to the one that I used in the picture, but I haven't found the time yet.

Well I don't really use traffic generators. I just build up an area, and don't use much mass transit, at least not much Razz

Also I use the "traffic sim "Z" low" for the NAM, RHW in my region, w/about 500K ppl.

I use the euro traffic generator on the STEX. I think it is by mikeseth, the creator of those euro cars.

That's a nice pic, although I wouldn't want to be driving during the rush hour on those roads. lol!

Please remember the 800x600 rule, however.

This is the only road out off the Neck Island area... this is the lower part of Neck Island Ave. This intersects eventually up w/SIH 10 about 30mins away... on a good day Show us your traffic jams! Rockytowneoct1831813092

Oh ya Brenn, connections are famous for high traffic congestion.
So unless your goal was high traffic usage here, we need some more connections here !
Of course they dont have to be road or highway connections. They can be connections of a different
transit if you want , like subway for example.

thanks, Brian
