There won't be a terrain generator of any kind, just a pre-made map, also most of the unity terrain applications won't give proper support for roads without being broken or glitched. (As I'm aware of, atleast that happened with a few that I tried to use)

yeah custom terrain is a tad bit harder to make with an automatic algorithm, that's why i gave the second option.
I have a friend who made a game like what you guys are making though. a driving game with custom map, road included. i can go ask some questions for you guys if you want.

im not judging your free time but like who does this kind of stuff when theyre alone dont u have somewhere to be
i mean i go loving around in abandoned places/construction sites/whatEVER when im with friends and intoxicated or w/e but like i dont even think of that when im alone and sober. (unless the abandoned place is known as a more dangerous place haha)

why cant u guys wear hats?
i have my hood up rn and no one bothers, must be weird in the US.

my ex once had a whole fiasco with the principle where he couldn't wear his purple arm warmers in winter because apparently it's gang-related.

It's just proper manners. You shouldn't wear a hat indoors.

doobie a hat is part of an outfit just like ur shoes and jacket.
the only place where it is obliged to take them off is at a home. any public place like a school, putting those off is just weirddd.

sorry for the amount of quotes i just now opened this thread for the first time and im suffering a culture shock

Google "Unity Terrain"
Discover the standard terrain replacements that every Unity dev uses, that are on the Asset Store, with 1000's of positive reviews
Choose the asset or combinatio of assets that's closest to your needs
Wonder why it took you so long to google it.

Or, you can go the painful route ...

Learn all about ROAM meshes and Megatexturing and anti-Popping LOD and BUZZWORD BINGO! (seriously, even just looking at the academic / University Papers and SIGGRAPH
publications, there's dozens of techs to read about and learn. That's before you even get into writing any code)
Build your own mesh generation, triangulation, and optimization routines
Ignore Unity Terrain

Both are super fun, but the latter can help out in the end and is a nice thing to learn.

important things about keeping motivated are:

document what u did when u worked on the game last. if u ever happen to have a longer break u can easily remember what you were doing. it happens often you dont if you dont have support and it can be very demotivating. addendum to thiis is to comment ur code you dingus

try to at least work once a week on it if you happen to have a busy schedule. set milestones for every weekas well. these diont have to be big at all. e.g rig a skeleton for the main character. smaller milestones than that are also ok. break down big milestones

i dont agree with Resonte about working on it so frequently. burnouts are definitely a thing you want to avoid. along with that working from a day's start to finish on a game is a very good way to make yourself grow tired of it.

and u should allllways share your game, let people test it, even if its still early. u know that thing artists do when they dont want you to see their art when they still drawing it? thats you, dont do that. the people playing your game are close to your audience, so the critique they give is oh so important
