.....reach down for the.......parking brake........ BUT FIRST - MAKE ME A ROAD! Hi all, How do I make a road? A real blacktop, 2 or 4 lane road, heading off into the horizon, that my camera can track down above, at driving speed? Any body know? thanks Sign me, wheeless, Kathy

Build a simple 2D square, placed on the ground. Extend along whatever axis you wish to drive the road. In photoshop, prepare a texture of the blacktop and divider. I suggest building in a square so its easier to anticipate the repeat. Apply in Bryce to your 2D with the setting of "parametric scaled". You may have to fiddle with it in the texture orientation editor, but it should give you the result you want. Failing that, there's a road in the Poser freestuff section, but you may have to convert it to a Bryce-friendly format.

Thanks Virtual Site! I will give it a try. But I dont have photoshop. I use Ulead photoimpact. Does anyone know if you can make textures in there ??( I have been wanting to ask that question for some time now.) thanks Quikp51, I think I saw it before, It's pretty good, but not what i want. I CAN BELIEVE BRYCE DOESNT HAVE ROADS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! THAT BLOWS MY MIND FOLLOW THE LOGIC: Mtns - landscape - trees - ROADS!!!! Wake up Corel!!!!!! Kathy "I love Roads" b

If you'd rather use an object, Sams 3D has some in the Freebies 3 section. Straight and curved with textures already

Kathy - if you don't need to show the car accelerating, just make the wheels sort of blurry and spinning - if you watch a car on a highway you can't really tell that the wheels spin at EXACTLY the same speed as the road going past. If you want to start animating at a standstill and then accelerate, that might be trickier. Can you measure around the wheel, then stretch that distance out flat so that a marked point on the wheel hits the road at that interval each time? Then regardless of the speed of the car the wheels will move exactly how they should...i hope this made sense....long day....
