Modeling Kerbs

[Noise]

Hi

 

Does anyone have a tried and tested method for modeling kerbs so that there is control over the mapping of kerb stones in such a way that they curve around bends ?

 

We have a couple of methods which use the loft tool and the sweep modifier but neither are perfect - if the sweep modifier had the Length Repeat option which the Loft tool has - all would be grand but, it doesn't.

 

thanks

I have just worked out a solution;

 

Use the sweep modifier and use real world mapping then in the bitmap tiling parameters - adjust this to get the desired tiling of the map, sorted !

in Max 2009 if you had modeled with out sweep modifier......you can just use a spline mapping to map your objects along the Kerbs
