Parametric urban areas

Pavements with complex patterns are generated by splines areas. The result is a clean, single-piece geometry that can be used as a solid base for other scene assets.
Curbcuts

Modeling curbcuts have never been so easy before. Pick a spline area, click the generate button and the perfect curbcuts are ready!
Parametric Roads

The creation of realistic roads has always been a big challenge. Road Texture tool allows you to generate realistic parametric roads with custom pavement markings and many other features.

Parametric Water

Create realistic lakes, reservoirs, and ponds with ease, pick a spline area, specify the depth, and click on the generate button, done!
Parametric Terrain

Modify existing terrain or create a new one from a simple plane. Berms, terrain depression, and holes in a surface can be generated by using spline areas.
