    Added detail, trees, some farms, more buildings, and extended the highway.

    Not much has changed, but I've added some more houses, did terrain editing, added a dirt road, a patch of forest, and a big piece of farmland.

    Started doing terrain work, finished a back road, and completed some farms.

    Completed the first section of the map, which adds some homes, a large farm, a dirt road, and a new highway texture thanks to @AIM.

    Starting to work on the next section of the map, and polished some existing parts.

    Map is about 1/3 complete. I Completed the 2nd section of the map, which adds a few farms, lakes, and houses. (I also accidentally took the screenshots in windowed mode, so they're slightly lower res)

    Starting to work on the 3rd section of the map now, which adds a store, more houses, and farms.

    Finished the 3rd section of the map. Getting pretty close to completion! :)

    Added AI support. A little clunky, but works.

    The map is now 3/4 complete. I added 6 new commercial buildings, and added more homes. Very close to completion! :)

    The map is now complete! :D Now all I have to do is upload to the repository.

    No, that is just the name of the intersection.

    AWESOME! But I would work on blending the textures in photoshop, or PDN because you can clearly see where you made cuts and pastes and such. You should use the clone tool in either applications so that the same texture shows up everywhere.

    Well, these are stock textures, though.

    Well, it's always nice to see another map being made, we can always use a steady stream of those.
    As a mapper, I've made most of my own road textures, so feel free to steal some of the ones out of any of my maps art/roads directories. They're free for everyone to use. Always use proper intersection pieces so roads don't look like they're overlapped.
    Good luck with it.

    May be, but I am just letting you know that they don't really look the best. You can see different shades of the road in stripes as though it was copied and pasted. Here is what I mean:

    Now, I made the same exact thing for you, erasing the weird stripes in the texture. It looks off right now, but I made it so it is seamless. You should throw them in game and take a look, you might like it more.

    I'm not the best at importing textures, but I've put the texture in the "roads" folder and it isn't showing up. Do I have to modify the materials.cs?

    I think it's because the texture isn't a dds, even though the system thinks it is.

    Yes, you have to write in the materials.cs in misc and in documents/beamng/levels/countryside/art/shapes/misc/materials.cs as well.

    Here is the dds of that, sorry I did forget to change it.

    Ok, I modified the materials.cs file, and it's showing up ingame, but there's no texture.

    What am I doing wrong? (It's called Custom_road_highway)
