Segmentation of Roads #60

Open szabo1994lorant opened 1 year ago

Dear Developer!

I would like to ask you , if you can provide a workflow for segmenting Roads in Unreal Engine. Generally , in most cases roads are generated along a spline and for example in case of "off-road" roads, its only a material not a mesh.

Can you provide a workflow how can I apply a class for roads generated along Splines?

Thanks in advance!

Regards, Lóránt

Hi @szabo1994lorant,

Since I haven't encountered such a use case until now, can you share any example code or an open-source project that utilizes that "material along the spline" method? Then I can see how it may be segmented. This plugin relies on each mesh having a single semantic class, but the use case you mention sounds very useful and should be supported.

One idea is to, if possible, utilize the same spline to create a thin plate mesh with the width of the road. This plate can then be manually hidden when rendering scene images and displayed when rendering semantics.

Hope this helps, Nikola

Dear @NikolaJov96 !

May I ask you if you are open for an online meeting regarding a topic? I am resarcher at John Von Neumann University, Hungary and I think is also possible to financially support the development of EasySynth I guess, if we can make a progess in some custom use case. I have sent a connection request on Linkdin.
