 Haha why would you want to delete the TIP ?
 let me know again what you said i came back to check it out , it wasnt my intention to make a neat road just a little scene to test the buildings  but  when i saw your tip i thought its worth knowing ;)
Anyway i did a couple more conversions  , i think before i go further i work on environment tecture etc
PS at time of posting Youtube is being a dick , it should go 720 P at some point

Oh, you saw it.  I was gonna delete it because I realized that, yes, it does make the last segment invisible (or grassy or whatever surface it's on), however, it still does not align the ground with the end of the last segment.  It was something I had asked Cameni about a while ago and he mentioned trying that, which I never followed up on, but it doesn't quite do what I'd like it to.  Want to get rid of the kink in the ground at the end of roads on slopes... Well... Easier than working around it, which I guess is generally doable I think, just not as easy as the process should be.

I always liked OPX buildings, placed and used many for our groups missions (while ago now). Hope things like this and others here on the forums formulate into something great, sim wise..
