    I'm starting coding the terrain section.

    I am currently trying to Auto-fix the overlap splines when do a "outline"

    Terrain tests
    - autofix overlapping in turns = done
    - reduce points per panel = done

    soon the new version will be available

    great, hopefully it's ready soon.
    at the moment I have some problems creating a nice terrain, this should help :)

    further improvements.
    Rotating terrain panel. You can rotate each panel to create slope.

    With the Terrain, can it be added to the existing track model or does it only add via the spline ?

    The terrain can be added to Trackmaker special objects (track, road edges and terrain panels).
    you can also add terrain to a shape with 1 line (open or close spline)

    If you get a spline from a mesh you can add terrain panels.

    I'm currently fix errors in open splines . More a few days and i think the script is ready.

    A quick message to thank you mario,
    because all this work has me give envi start 3D 3DSmax and recreate the circuit of my region.
    Good my his laborious very early, I discover the software, I do not yet know what is splines..

    But will you want to do a good job is, and with your tools I imagine you we facilitated life.

    I watch often your tutorials to learn but I have big gaps, I'm missing all the bases.
    I would like to ask you if you ever have free time.a tutorial to show us the subtlety of the textures of the circuit or kerb or grass...
    in any case thank you for all your work.

    Thanks.
    But to work with 3ds max you have to learn some basics.
    Splines are curves and lines generated by mathematics (vectors). In my opinion, the splines are more flexible and accurate for modeling.

    Now TrackMaker is already more robust (version 0.9). I have planned to write a complete guide and videos.
    All this work takes time only thing I ask is a small donation to use my scritps to compensate for the effort.
