Cars driving in the city

[skywalker113]

I am going to make a big city scene. I am wondering how im going to make all of the hundreds of cars moving around in the city. Here is a picture showing the scene im dealing with. The camera is going to orbit around the tower for a short while. My plan is to make a whole bunch of city blocks with diffrent variations, then clone all of them and randomize them up.

No, it's one of SplineGod's tutorials. You can do this right out of the box.

Larry, is there anyway to download these video's for offline viewing. Im not always able to be online and it would be nice to still be able to see them.

Regards, John

Im not sure. A couple of people in other threads have mentioned how to do that.

I could be wrong but I think that was one of the tutorials that was on the disc in version 8.

Yes it was. :)
