What could anyone do with roads?

Hey, let me ask simply ... I am very interested to build my own map. I can not make the surroundings and the landscape of procedure, but like designing roads. I´m gonna learn this about...

I would like to ask if I could do with road textures anywhere I want this things. I hope, that you will understand, what it on my mind. Thanks.

Some examples (sorry, 5 minute of work), are they possible to do?
1)


2)


3)


4)

Sorry for my bad english, I used translater and didnt read it after.

I have another one question? Did you think about offer to download route builder? I think it is really good idea, because then you could give some good in your game in sell version.

No chance to get answer? Ok, I´m an idiot, but I´m interessed in this..

Hi!
The examples shown must be separate objects and cannot be made from splines. So you'll need to create these street objects on your own. Thus, it's up to you whether you use special textures or more polygons. Keep in mind that you can overlay the street markings with a transparent texture.

Thank you very much for answer... So understand I good when I think that all these things must I model in Blender for exmaple?

Short answer: Yes, these objects must be done in Blender.

I´m beginner in this, but I´m resolved for longer time to start modelling a this game will be ideal oppurtunity.. Can I ask please, can be some object stolen from other game? I don´t know example, but is it possible? Some tree or something? ;-)

And another question, will be problem or hard to do this for exmaple?

So this was made in 3D program, right?

Yes.

And can you give me some tips, where can I find tutorials for this?

Blender is available here:

Tons of Blender tutorials on Google:

I use SketchUp, but when I start modding this game, I will import into Blender using the tutorial I made:

*bump* Is using texture overlays for street markings a technique you use as well? For example here http://omnibussimulator.de/screenshot/101101/20101101009.jpg - is every marking on a separate layer and the underlying asphalt tiled across the entire road surface?

Yes, this is possible - we did this e.g. with the arrows. But you may do so with different markings, too.

Ah, but not the lane markings in the above image?
