Hey, whole stadium community wishes Nadeo to fix this little details in TM2 Stadium blockmix tool.
The tool is really awesome, but we'd like the border between grass and road go green (and driveable also up, now it works only down). Also, we get stupid graphical errors and overlapping borders of the road. And we aren't talking about those small 1x1 banked blocks, but also other banked blocks that can't be placed on ground without the blockmix tool. Would be cool if it worked like normal downhill block connects with tunnel roads, so smooth and clean.
Sincerely, stadium mappers

Re: Ingame mixmapping tool could be better
Everything has been said, please update.
Re: Ingame mixmapping tool could be better
Ok, maybe I have to explain
1. You build the pattern you wish in the air
2. ctrl+click to pick the geometry you wish (both curved slopes)
3. place them at the right place
The pickink in mixmaping take the geometry as it is. It's different from selecting the block directly

Re: Ingame mixmapping tool could be better
Yeah, that is not a big deal. However, this is:
As you see the level of the road is higher than grass level (green is how slope should be, red is how it is, np for my sicko paint skills), which basically means that the car can't go up even though driving down works fine and quite bugfree. Of course it can be avoided by placing some kind of slope underground, but that's a way uglier than those green borders the game gave when mixmapping in TMU with 3rd party programs. Making that (or any other similar ground placed block) work smoothly there is the main thing
Otherwise the ingame mixer is just fabulous, really nice work with it! With this little improvement it would be pretty much perfect in my eyes
And oh, I've got my translator sign on forums, cool

Re: Ingame mixmapping tool could be better
in TMF the thing you described was possible, because when placing this block on the ground, you got no clip at all... and you could put a simple roadpiece to create green clip. in TM2 it doesn't seem like putting a block without any clip is possible.

Re: Ingame mixmapping tool could be better
Because the piece with the green lip is designed for touching the ground, but an air piece simply is not... mixing give possibilities rather than fixing every desire And its awesome the things you can do already ...
Why let the ground get in the way?
But to directly address the issue (I think you want it go from air slope to grass?), the best I manage so far is here...
or if you have room for alittle road, its much nicer (imo)
You can also do like a hybrid of those, less 'road barriers' in the grass...
The simple slope continuation underground and then a flat road piece through can also work, but you get a small glitch where the blue arrow points....

I think we need "mix-mapping" spirit Some possibilities work fine and other ones don't work. That's mix-mapping rule and spirit. Mix-mapping bring more possibilities but it shouldn't mean work for Nadeo. It is just more freedom and diversity. This is more interesting for mappers to find nice and clever solution
Re: Ingame mixmapping tool could be better
Alternative borders of such blocks placed on the ground would be really great
Perhaps thats also where custom objects could help in between.
However, some blocks actually already have the little green slopes that allow to drive on them:
See:
But the remaining of 2-1-x don't have them - although 2-1-4 hits the ground at 30° similar to those blocks where there is no slope
Btw. for mixmapping I would like to temporarily disable the connectors, here the yellow blobs at the block ends , so I could directly see if the block I want to place matches at least visually or by its shape...
(didn't remind nor find the shortcut if there is one )

Re: Ingame mixmapping tool could be better
MrA, those ways are a lot more bumpy than a green slope, which would work really fine. The tunnel thing ofc can be done like that, but it's still ugly :p
I've talked about this with people and we all agree these green slopes would make the tool

Re: Ingame mixmapping tool could be better
Yes, sure they would make good candidates for Nadeo to add the ground variant (actually TM lacks block variants overall more than SM). But all I say is you can still do so much already....
I would guess a quick solution can be found using the new embedded objects feature, just a little slope/lip piece using existing textures (as you must) would do it, and it can be present for all your maps. (When I say quick, I mean once someone makes the object it will be quick to use it)
