3D Grass Region - Intersection to Driveway / Road

[Ange822]

Hello, I'm wondering if anyone has has issues with the 3D grass region transitioning to a driveway / road.

I assume it is because I have the road / curb 6" lower than the driveway and sidewalk. I haven't had luck researching this issue.

 

It doesn't look too back when I do a camera view / perspective crop but I still notice it!

 

Thanks very much in advanced.

Your results may be dependent on the tools you've used. Chief models the driveways / sidewalk / curbs to meet, but they aren't creating actual terrain elevation data so the grass region does not conform. Manual terrain input can override this.

Another easy way to avoid that is to use a rolled gutter / curb / sidewalk, if that's regionally appropriate. Personally, I find that Chief's curb / driveway tools don't provide me with the control and realism that I prefer.

Thanks so much for responding Rob. That is unfortunate to hear.

 

I kind of cheated the way it looks, I changed the curb to 4" high, and then specified the "terrain to top" to 4".

So the driveway doesn't slope down to the road, but the curb makes it appear that it might be! It will do for now!
