    Additional information.

    I noticed that this wall behaves differently on Cities XXL compared to Cities XL.

    Indeed, on Cities XXL, early in the process of the construction of the wall, it is immediately visible on the ground.

    On Cities XL you will need to mount the slider to make it visible.
    If you leave the cursor flush with the ground, the game displays foundations by default.
    In any case it works like that on my own version of the game.

    Another important information, this wall has a colission box.
    Why did I leave a colission box?
    To allow hanging plazas immediately against the wall.
    So that the retaining wall fully plays its role.

    Given the collision box, and unlike the maritime defense wall, you cannot therefore build this wall immediately on a plaza already placed on the ground.

    Is not working for me. Believe me, this time I placed the patch file in the right game folder.

    Your first download may have been corrupted. Try to download the patch again. And replace it with the latter.

    Miguel,
    I am wondering if you have reached the limit of displaying thumbnails.
    Cities XL 2012 can display up to 100 thumbnails in the Transport, Bridge, Custom Construction menu.

    Try this patch. It increases the amount of thumbnail display.
    Changes - Mod Vignettes (Thumbnails)

    Modify the name of this patch by adding 3 Z :
    zzz_CXLmod377Mod_Vignettes_(Thumbnails)_v2.0

    No way my dear Drasicdesign. Nothing happened after making the changes suggested by you. Even after removing the Dummy Rail Bridge patch by Mr. X in order to gain more free thumbnails, which is no longer useful for me. Nothing happened at all.

    Thanks for trying to help me

    Sorry Miguel, but I have no other solution for you.
    I will try this weekend to make you a patch with a different menu location.

    Doesn't work for me:
    [12:39:55] CoreTag ctTagContainer.cpp ( 192) ErrorBuild Tag <StyleDRAZIC09> is not defined in tag list, check Tags.cfg

    Have you added another tag to the tags file?

    If that doesn't work, I suggest you do this.
    Remove patch "zzzz_XXL_MrX2_TagsCfgXXL_V1.3.patch" from your mods folder

    Remove your version of the community mod and replace it with this version : Dropbox - XXL_Altiris_CommunityPatch_v2.10a.patch - Simplify your life

    Relaunch the game and please let me know if it works.

    So, I have tried the walls a bit, and I have to say, this mod is the game changer that I thought it to be! You will need to develop a routine, but afterwards, it's quite easy.
    Just one thing: do you think it is possible to allow for 90 degrees angles? I was getting empty holes when I tried to do so :(

    Hi Kip,

    In the current state of my knowledge on this game, I do not believe that this is feasible on the code generating the bridges.
    In any case, if it were possible, I do not have the knowledge of it.
    Indeed, these walls are parameterized with the codes allowing to build bridges.
    As you know the bridges do not allow the construction of a 90 ° angle.

    When I started to create these walls, I wondered what was the most suitable code to create these walls.
    Roads? or the bridges?

    Indeed the code generating the construction of the roads would allow to have an angle of 90 °, or more, or less.
    But unfortunately the roads do not support shadows in the game.
    Have you noticed that my farm road mod with side barriers does not cast any shadows on the ground?

    This is the reason why I chose the bridges.:)

    Well, I hope I answered to the best your query.

    Yesterday evening, I made some changes, but malheureussement this was not conclusive.
    If I find a solution, I will share an official update.

    In the meantime, I offer you a "do-it-yourself" solution.
    1 / lower the level of the land on which you want to build this wall. So that the wall appears directly during its construction.
    2 / Build the wall at the desired height.
    3 / Finally, re-level the ground so that only the small piece of wall appears.

    So, for the moment I unfortunately have no better offer.:confused:

    Hi, can you change the mod so that it does not modify the terrain? I want to build the retaining wall near a cliff like a protection for the road but after i finish to build the wall the ground change and i have a gap between the cliff and wall. Thx.

    I'll try to look at that, I think it's possible.
    I like the retaining wall that you have presented in photo!
    It gives ideas!

    Your wall is very good for top of the cliff because you can fill the top with plaza. I tried with your
    Sea defense wall and fill the top with rocks but now i can't place plaza between the wall and road and i can't make the wall to high.
    The problem is that the road pushes the rock too far. I think the best solution would be if the roads can be changed so they can't change the terrain. Then you could terraform the land enough to fit the road then build the road and in the end ad the Sea defense wall.:love:

    But I'm waiting for your solution. Thx
