Edit-Tools menu commands

The Edit-Tools menu offers the following commands:

Enter move distance Opens up the Enter move distance dialog, where you can move an element by inputting new coordinates to be moved by. Can be used on the following elements:
  • Track blocks
  • Track objects
  • Polygons
  • Points
Move XY Selects the Move XY tool: drag the mouse in order to move the selection along horizontal directions.
Move Z Selects the Move Z tool: drag the mouse in order to move the selection along the vertical direction.
Drop down on track Drops selected element to the nearest track polygon. Can be used on the following elements:
  • Track objects
  • Lane polygons
  • Points
Expand / Shrink Opens up the Expand / Shrink dialog where you can scale up/down the dimensions of an element. Can be used on the following elements:
  • Track blocks
  • Track objects
Invert Flips a polygon orientation. Can only be used in Polygon mode.
Merge/Split Selects the Merge/Split tool: control-left-click in order to merge vertices or adjacent polygons?; right-click in order to split vertices (This command has not yet been implemented for polygons).
New/Duplicate Create or duplicate an object or a polygon.
Rotate Rotates the selected element. Can be used on the following elements:
  • Track blocks
  • Track objects
  • Track polygons
    • You can rotate the texture orientation of a polygon by pressing Ctrl + Alt + R
Add Fence Adds a fence polygon at the center of the track block
Add Lane Adds a lane polygon at the center of the track block
Adjust road width Opens a dialog to adjust the virtual road width to remove the invisible walls on either side of the track.
Virtual Road, heights, spdfa & spdra. Opens up a dialog where you can edit the Virtual Road data point properties of the currently selected block such as AI speeds and lanes.
Polygon flags Modify the virtual road properties of a track polygon (collision detection, passability...)
Properties Display the properties of currently selected element.
Texture View and modify the texture of the currently selected element. Can be used on the following elements:
  • Track blocks
  • Track objects
  • Track polygons
Visibility Manages the track blocks visibility.
  • Set visibility: opens a dialog to set track visibility for track blocks
  • Export/Import visibility of track blocks to/from visibility.txt
  • Increase or decrease visibility of currently selected track blocks for forward and backward directions
Block Neighbours Opens up a dialog to set up blocks connected to the currently selected block.
Export Exports various kind of data to files
  • Track vertices to Vertices.txt
  • Texture values to Textures.txt
  • Export object (to .off file)
    • Objects can be exported centered or with their positions in-track
  • NFS3 Texturebooks
  • Virtual Road, heights, spdfa and spdra data
Import Imports various kind of data from files
  • Texture values from Textures.txt
  • Import object (from .off file)
  • NFS3 Texturebooks
  • Virtual Road, heights, spdfa and spdra data
Generate LODs Experimental feature, generates LODs of track blocks
