Dual Carriageway spline

Post by Marky7890 »

Evening All,
Would anyone know of good uk Dual Carriageway spline? I am currently using "Highway" which seems a bit wide with a large hard shoulder area, which isn't needed. I also have the boulevard types but these have pavements, and no crash barriers so unsuitable for the countryside.

Thanks,
Mark

Creator: cliveroberts Kuid id:195357, has a large assortment of UK roads and dual carriageways. There are a couple of issues, vehicles float a foot off the pavement and also the ground beneath the road surface has to be dead level to achieve a good fit. They are , however, an excellent portrayal of UK roads.

Grid shows through if you lay them on a flat untextured board in TRS19. He made the same mistake I made initially when creating roads, in trying to get rid of the gap, you can't as the road height has to correspond to the traffic height so you either need to fill in the gap or add verges pavements etc.
