[@JakubLindauer]

Great tutorial and great assets. Just few of my remarks: - you use "CTRL +" selection quile rafely. Many times I was able to select faster with that. - do you use also selection using "CTRL + LMB"? This way again, you can select faster, e. g. for seating orange stripes selection this is great. - to set up proper scale, it is possible to insert empty human armatures to get proper scale feeling.

[@yumpyblend]

It's helpful. Thanks

[@RyanKingArt]

[@originalcharacter2470]

This is my preference, but I'm modelling the house and I prefer to make many of the aspects such as the bottom lip, top lip and doorway out of seperate cubes so that each piece comes with a UV map that I can manipulate much easier later. I prefer my models to be texturable. :)

[@Jake_203]

Thanks for the video, it helps a lot. One Question: I did the traffic light, but my red, yellow and green aren't that shiny. Is it because i use a different render engine?

[@fennafenn]

Dear Ryan. I have been following your Tutorials for a very long time and I think it is absolutely great and clear. But I really have a problem with the bend, I do exactly what you do. And with the straight road and the Wireframe on, Box select and then 2 Meter and then the other setting at -1, after segments 10. But all faces remain on top of each other. And when I check Face Orientation all my Normals are screwed. Even if I move above 2 meters to create some space in the Spintool, I keep the Z Fighting. Recalculating Normals also doesn't help. Do you have any advice? I made ten attempts. Disclaimer: the rest of the roads turned out well. Just some Z Fighting and flipped Normals with the Pedestrian Crossing Stripes. But that's an easy one to solve myself, I think. I recorded it with OBS, can I show it to you somewhere? (it is quite a traffic jam for a short video) I hope you are willing and able to answer? I am currently coming from Blender 3.6 LTS and I am currently working on 4.0. I once started in 2.79.

All going great till the curved road, I have my form of measurement in inches so I had to play with the numbers to get it, what I thought was correct, but it looks slightly off, then agian what roads in this world are good. One side connects perfectly and the other looks a little wonky and the last white stripe isn't quite right. since I'm learning this for 3d printing I should probably put it back to metric and if I have perception problems just calculate it out until I get used to it. Oh and with the curve tool and the gizmo being on I had to click on the "curve with 2 plus signs" to get the menu in the bottom left corner to show up. I'm running Blender 3.1.2. I'm not sure if it's the version or my settings just in case someone else has this issue or reads this before you start the tutorial, it will be best to keep it in metric.

[@billnoname8093]

Another Question, I'll probably have a few as time goes on. When you loaded the HDR image and went down to Film and hit transparent you have a background of a little checkerboard, yours is faint and small mine is large and very visible so it's distracting, is there a way to change that. Also why did you load the Hdr image in the first place, Lighting is my best guess

[@RyanKingArt]

Hmm, thats odd. I don't know any way to change the scale of the transparent background. Yes, I added the HDRI for better lighting and reflections.

Would it be possible to use geometry nodes to easliy lay out a road system on a generated landscape?

I'm sure that is possible with Geo-Nodes, but I've never tried that before.

Hello, I am attempting to do the Front Windshield of the car using the mirror mod and when I go to turn the Border off, it does not affect the Inset. It appears the same as if the border was on. Using version 3.1.2. Can you or anyone else assist please? UPDATE Found out the issue: If you turn off the mirror mod and see a face on your original object, you must delete the face(s) and then it will work as instructed in the video.
