    I'm a newbie and I want to replace the dry asphalt pavement in my map with lightly waterlogged asphalt pavement, where should I edit? If you could tell me how to do it I would be very grateful!

    Roads are a combination of road decals for the look and terrain for the physics.

    You need to paint an asphalt wet terrain under your road decal, then replace the road decal with one that has areas of higher reflectivity (to simulate wet).

    If you want to change all instances of asphalt to damp, then it is best to just change the asphalt groundmodel property in the material editor window to one of the wet asphalt options (can't recall the exact names). Select asphalt and look in the top right of the editor.

    For the decals, I'd recommend finding an existing wet map and copying their decal textures (if you're planning to release the map, you'll need permission and to give credit to them).

    Thank you very much for your reply. I will try to find the road material you mentioned. If I can't find it, I will ask you. Thanks again!
