    hi everybody,
    whith normal skp-functions i can

    project a horizontal street o the mesh surface, then the street has the same slope as the mesh on its surface (unrealistic)

    or

    cut the street in the mesh, where then the street surface stays horizontal and does not followthe mesh surface.

    question:

    how can i project a street to a mesh, where the street is ,cut, into the mesh with same depth along the street and the slope of the street is realistic? (length-slope = mesh, cross-slope nearly zero) ?
    thanx for any tips

    stan

      And the Sandbox tools with Drape and Stamp would not be useful here?

      I take the slow, deliberate approach in my aimless wandering.

        You might look into Simuterra. I'm not sure if Erez is still actively developing or not, but I believe it was working pretty well.

        Or Chuck Vali might also have a good solution:

            Have a look at this thread http://forums.sketchucation.com/viewtopic.php?p=393786#p393786 and download the file in that post for an example.
            Best of luck

              hi and thanx to all of you,
              i just contacted chuck vali and will buy the script, since this one is really fantastic and even the free version managed a really complicated mesh.
              regards stan
              and thanx again for helping me!
