D3F3CT3D 25 Posted June 7, 2016 Not sure how to go about this process, I seen some others have really nice detail roads from satellite picture so roads dont dissapear.. im working on my bottom left tile 20480x20480... and having generated layers for test at 4096x4096 im seeing bad results as in correct road path is difficult to get aligned in photoshop to terrain builder.... pics below...

D3F3CT3D 25 Posted June 7, 2016 Try this. surface mask texture is for close up , my problem is detailed distant satellite roads that line up perfectly with the buldozer roads i created from polylines.. and also to mention , export shapes to imagery ( The polylines [ roads ] do not even line up with the roads in buldozer.. Resulting in never going to line up in photoshop Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Doesnt work , The roads are not accurate , The Polylines like i mentioned do not match the buldozer roads, [ Never will unless fixed ] Thats why im asking people for there techniques, there is no way im going to guess for every part of the road it would take weeks to finish.

It's does work, you just have to change the width of the polyline in TB. click the line then edit it in the bottom left of your screen, you change change the width of it there. Mine line up fine Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dragonsyr 21 Posted June 7, 2016 for roads shapes (tb) . use more vertices close to the apex when you want to make a corner , i see in your 3rd picture that you have only one point in the corner and after that is one at the end. with this you get a curve , not a corner. Thats why the roads are not accurate . try to add vertices about a cm away before and after the corner . closer=sharper , far=smoother (curve) 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
D3F3CT3D 25 Posted June 8, 2016 adding 3 points on the corner does work tyvm Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
spookygnu 563 Posted June 9, 2016 you may be better with using five points to get a smoother curve. That's what I do and it looks less displaced compared to the sat image too. You get more freedom of movement for the angles needed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
