Title: The surface is not displayed correctly
Post by: Alan_Waters on April 14, 2016, 10:17:34 AM
Installed "JENXPARIS Quais de Seine", and the surface of the pavement is not displayed correctly, repeating the slope of the land.  :'(

How to fix it?  ()what()

Unfortunately there's no real fix, only workarounds, because the slope is simply not steep enough the covered by the half tile wide walls. So either raise the terrain, thus making for a steeper slope. Or only use the one tile width walls, as in the top of the image, since these do cover the slope completely.

I raised the terrain, but the tile is still repeats it.
Thanks for the quick response!

These pieces require a very steep slope, so make sure that you test them on a slope that is at least 30 m high. Otherwise, there's not very much to do about it. As vortext said, you could use the QS1 pieces, that you have used at the top of the image.

If you are familiar with the Lot Editor and know the exact height of the slope, there is a possible, but rather tedious work-around. (I will describe it as if you're not very familiar with the Lot Editor, just in case.) You can open the QS2 lots in the Lot Editor, then:

Themistokles, thank you very much for your help, but modding - it's incredibly hard for me. I'm much closer to the sound editors.  ;D

Then you'll either have to make the slope 30 m high, or use only the basic Quais de Seine pieces. :)
