May-06-02, 04:11 PM (EDT) "How to change road curvature?" In trying to lay some road down, I notice the curves I want to use go left when I want them to go right, and vice versa. How can I change them to go where I want?I've tried almost everything. Alert Edit | Reply | Reply With Quote | Top

You may have to use T several times until the road lines up where you want it as it changes lane connections as well as direction.SRV Ron Remove | Alert Edit | Reply | Reply With Quote | Top

The cars go in the opposite direction of the pulsing line.SRV Ron Remove | Alert Edit | Reply | Reply With Quote | Top

On some 4 lane curved sections where you have to press T 3 or 4 times to line it up, there will be a gaping hole that'll swallow a Mack truck. Thats normal I guess, unless someone knows how to fix it. Remove | Alert Edit | Reply | Reply With Quote | Top

And too, the 'rotate' function is great for getting the road to follow dips and climbs in the terrain greatly. Just move mouse up or down so that front line hides a bit into the ground, and attach that next section, and so forth. Thanks again guys! Remove | Alert Edit | Reply | Reply With Quote | Top
