Road + Terrain = ?

wirrexx

Hey Guys, is there a way to bake down a road (with diffuse) onto a terrain in 3Ds max? 
My terrain IS UVWED and done, but when i bake down the textured version (Global Supersampler on)
It's not showing up.


Cage is covering up all the parts and i've been trying to use 3DS max and xNormal for this. Not helping

So summary?
Bake down a road with textures onto a terrain? 

BY THE WAY, i Can't show pictures because of the company

Help

Can't you use a custom shader to paint textures on it ? Like blending textures using vertex colors ?

Baking is always an alternative...

The boss wants it to be baked, but the issue

1. We're using a plugin for the road
2. exporting the road and the terrain (LP)
3. Baking down the road onto the terrain

Not working at all.  

The reason we want it too be baked is a good way to kill of the AA. 

But yeah, i've mentioned Custom shaders, seems like the last way out

Fixed: Error in 3Ds max wasn't letting me bake anything. Re-install fixed it! thanks
