Author Topic: I need road textures.  (Read 611 times)

I need some kind of road texture for this new map that I want to make. Preferably I would want the default road bricks as a texture but anything similar to lego roads is great too.

The default road bricks don't use textures, it's all from the code (Dear God...), don't ask why Badspot made it like this, if it was texture we could've customize the roads. Anyway;

You could download RTB v1.045, the roads there use textures and you could snatch it from there.


What about taking pictures of the default roads?

Also I may be considering making the roads by using them as terrain texture, how would I go about doing that and is it a good idea?

Taking pictures of the roads is feasible and would be the best idea. Using them as terrain textures would be complex and I really don't recommend it at all. You could always just use the road textures in GSF Ghost's city maps.

I wrestled with this problem greatly when making Special Stage Route A. Mutant'z Raceway had turns and road textures, but they sucked. What is needed is good turns textures. I believe Torque Game Builder or whatever it's called has a function that allows you to 'paint' roads, so the texture will always be facing the proper way no matter how many turns you have. I would kill for it.

TGB doesn't have that. T3D does, though, I think.
