Flat cell for Roads

[Gnat]

I'm trying to create a "cutting" for a road around the edge of some hills but even if I set all 4 corners of a cell to the same height the cell is not flat in game, certainly not flat enough to put a main road along.
My Terrain detail is only on normal in game.

I would have thought it possible to force a cell to "flat" from edge to edge, even having a constant slope, like 15m on 2 corners, 10m on the other 2 corners.

I tried using blur to at least smooth it, but a variety of bumps and stuff still persist in the middle of a cell.
My config file I dont think has anything defined for roughness.

Looking for hints ......
Thx

What textures are you using, and can you post your config.cpp please?

[Gnat]

Not sure if I imagined it or not, but AFTER I lay a road the cells may be smoothing out a little ..... maybe. But either way I would have thought I could get them even smoother/more flat.

Textures are Ob1.pac and Os1.pac

First off try it in-game at very_low. This is equivelent to the exact WRP data. Second, look at CfgSurfaces in resbinconfig.bin and the subdivision subclass there in Defaultworld : CfgWorlds. resaddonsnoeconfig.bin adds some things in CfgSurfaces too.

Tried using this;

Code: Select all

class CfgWorlds <br>      {<br>      class DefaultWorld {<br>            class Subdivision<br>                  {<br>                  minY=0.0;<br>                  minSlope=0.02;<br><br>                  class Fractal<br>                        {<br>                        rougness=10;<br>                        maxRoad=0.05;<br>                        maxTrack=0.25;<br>                        maxSlopeFactor=0.025;<br>                        };<br><br>                  class WhiteNoise<br>                        {<br>                        rougness=5;<br>                        maxRoad=0.025;<br>                        maxTrack=0.12;<br>                        maxSlopeFactor=0.012;<br>                        };<br>                  };<br>

and changed the numbers (except rougness) and nothing happened any different.

Tried LOW ..... sure, that helps, but its not as anyone would play in that setting.
ideas ? Is the syntax above errored ?
