Question by AntiSaby · Dec 02, 2012 at 04:12 PM · editorterrainsimpleexternal

Curvy Shapes in Unity Terrain editor?

I'm a beginner to Unity. I'm looking for a way to draw some curved shapes like a arc roads/streets(semi-circle perhaps?) or other detailed things. The problem is, i can't achieve them with the unity in-built terrain tools/brushes since they are just brushes. Is there any other free terrain editor or something or free unity plugins? Any kind of help would be appreciated.

I don't understand the question, do you mean like to shape the terrain? Or like paint on it?

If you need a road specifically, might mess with the road/path tool from the asset store (its free)

terain editor can't create caves/ over pass/ arches etc, only hills, mountains, flats etc.

You will have to make that yourself or use The roads/path tool. If you just making a dirt path/ road itwould look better with an irregular shape/curve

Create the height map in Unity, then export it as a raw bitmap. Import that into Photoshop or whatever paint package you have purchased, and make your changes there. Save it, and then re-import into Unity.
