Make a simple patch mesh, something I, personally, I’m awful with. But that is how you do it.

Here’s a starting tutorial on patch editing if your looking forward to going that route:

Most from what I understand would edit the terrain via Tri-souping. That’s a whole 'nother subject that you’d have to PM some people on. Just do a search on the topic in the forums or whatever. I could be wrong but I figured I’d post a quick reply to hopefully steer you in the right direction.

Here’s an example of some tri-souped roads that were posted up -

As for what textures to use…use a road looking texture.

It’s probably texture alignment. Try this: CTRL-SHIFT-N a couple of times and it will Cycle cap textures. It might not work on normal patch though. Post that pic anyway… :slight_smile:
