    Default Toposurface

    I'm trying to have vehicles follow the grade I've set for the toposurface and have set the vehicles to have a host of the surface, but this doesn't help, they seem to only be on one level, would anyone have a suggestion to overcome this?

    Have you tried making the vehicles family as a Site category and uncheck Always Vertical (under Family Category and Parameters)?

    They should follow your toposurface slope.

    Thumbs up Re: Toposurface

    Thanks Andre for the quick response, I haven't tried that as I thought it was more of a family issue.

    Thanks,

    Made the vehicles as a site category, but there wasn't an option to uncheck "Always Vertical" under family category or parameters. Vehicle still follows a perfect horizontal level.

    Create a new family (Generic Model) > Model your car > Go to Settings > Family Category and Parameters > Change it from Generic Model to Site > Uncheck "Always Vertical" > Load it into your project and it will follow the slope of your site. Just did it here with a 3D block and it works.
