Hi.

In this style there are few aspects that You need to deal with.

I get better results with flat spline ("Line007" instead of "rcl_roadObject"), plus setting RC Curve steps value to like 500

Surface is not detailed enough- it helps if You add turbosmooth with 4 Iterations.

There were few attempts to tackle crossroads with RC but this is just not the tool designed for that.
Anyway maybe this technique (https://forum.itoosoft.com/railclone-pro-(*)/road/msg13419/#msg13419) can help in some cases.

Thank you Mr. Rokas,
you sorted it that's unbelievable..
You resolved all the problems I had.

Thanks a lot to clarify where the main problem was ..

Basically
- "curve steps" in RC and
- "turbo smooth" terrain don't have enought details  and
- "spline straight horizontally"...

Thanks i believe someone will happy for this topic :D best regards P. and thanks for alternative topic I will try.that approach
