Title: rivers and bridges and ground vehicles
Post by: Ghastly on August 20, 2007, 11:11:01 AM

If I use the river tiles, I get a nice meandering river.  GV's don't seem to be able to cross the river by fording - I checked to be sure since there seemed to be some contradictions based on what I found when I searched.

{small voice} But how exactly do I get a ford or a bridge. The river tiles seem to have half a bridge on them - or maybe they are docks, I can't tell for sure.

Regardless, does anyone know what I need to do to get a crossable river?  Rivers are great, but there has to be some way to get from har to thar...

Well, you have two options. Make your own, or use the default bridge models provided by HTC. In the OE they are named:
bridg1
bridg2
bridg3
bridg4
bridg5
bridg6

All of those models will help you make a working bridge.

Thanks Denholm - this is for an MA terrain, so building my own would be out even if I was so inclined.

So that was exactly the information I was looking for.
