About this image

Making some fresh roads from scratch since the ones in the mod now are based on Beth's source, which is pretty meh in terms of composition.  This is pretty damn close to their concept without being a flat cracked stone that I had to dress up.  Not sure if they're quite there yet.

    You are a bad boy like me but I will not tell your mam either.
    This project will lift the looks without being pushy.
    Seems to be your trademark, calthrop?

      I generally try to stick close to the idea Beth was going for, but they cut a lot of corners back then because they were obviously understaffed for the amount of textures included in the game. I do depart from vanilla if I have really good, appropriate source to work with or if Beth just entirely s#*! the bed. In this case the roads are one of the most visible landscape textures in the game for the average player, so I figured I'd hand make something nice.

      I love the approach. I love the texture, too :)
      Do you use things like Quixel Mixer or Substance Painter?
