Editing existing roads in CAW

[LogansMommy]

Hi all. I googled before deciding to post this, so please be kind! The only information I found was very outdated and not relating specifically to this question.

All I'm trying to do is edit the existing roads in a premade world I downloaded here at MTS2. I'm basically converting it for use as my new medieval hood and I've gone around deleting lights, billboards, water towers, etc, added more lots, everything I need to make it feel more authentic. But my final step is changing all the basic roads into dirt roads. I have read through the EA manual and I see nothing that relates to changing the texture of roads already in place. I can move them, stretch them, etc, but can't change the texture. I know I can make NEW dirt roads easily, but I didn't want to hassle with deleting and replacing every inch of road, hence the reason for wanting to use someone else's world rather than making my own from scratch.

Any ideas on this? I've been racking my brain and staring at CAW hoping to find it hidden somewhere, but no luck! Any CAW users out there that can offer some help?

Thanks! :)

There are two possibilities
1. Are they default roads? If they're not then you can just go to the roads tab and change the textures
2. If they are default roads then it should be possible by using Sim3PE. All you have to do is open the .world file in it and change the textures that way (or) depending if the images are in the .world or not look through game files for fullbuild2 (I think it's that one) and see if they're there.

I've never tried doing it but it is possible once you find the correct images.

Thanks for the response! Yes, the road is default so there's no way to edit the textures. I'll give Sim3PE a try.. But, where do I download it? Google brings me to the original SimPE.

Try S3PE
