creating road texture

if you create the road mesh from a lofted spline then the uvw's will flow along the road nicely, then apply your bitmap and tile it. you could also use nurbs, or path deform a plane etc etc.

hope that's some help.

You want to "project" a curve onto your grass surface. NURBS is the way to go to get a nice projected curve. Plus it will give you a great mapping coord sys even after you convert it to geometry (if you need too)

I'll go into more detail if you need it. Modeling roads is something I do on a regular basis.
