Creating Roads and Pathways in UEFN

In Fortnite Battle Royal, the roads and pathways make traveling between points easy whether a player is on foot or in a vehicle. These were all created using the Spline tool.

You can add roads and pathways to your project using the architectural props from Street Gallery B or the Racetrack Gallery, but these props require the flat grid plates to lay on top of.

The Spline tool in Landscape Mode provides greater control because you determine the number of splines needed to create the path, the mesh type, and the amount of brush falloff to work with the weight and height maps of the terrain.

If you want to add dirt along the path around your mountain, you could use the Spline tool, but using the Paint tool to add small dirt patches is an easier way to create a worn path. Select the dirt layer as the material, then paint small patches of the landscape.

In the editor, select Landscape Mode > Manage > Spline.

Click All Splines in the Spline settings to make sure that as you lay a spline point the terrain and spline work together, blending the spline mesh with the terrain mesh to create a natural looking path as you set down each spline segment.
