Sorry to say but No tutorials, Not even outdated tutorials. I am using Blender 3+ and found only 2 tutorials that are not working ( GUI and features are changed ) . How can a new one in a blender use this?

Great addon for blender and great product support as well.

Bought the full version and was using this 2.0.9 that I got in 2022, it was kinda working, all the assets showed up, but none of the materials worked properly for the sidewalk. I am currently on Blender 3.4 and downloaded the last update of v2.0.4 ( which makes no sense for naming conventions tbh). This version is a wreck in 3.4. The street is drawn but none of the assets show up. Then you look to see if there is an option to hide in the "Veiwport" Yes you read that correctly, that's how it's written. An oversight? Maybe! But then again this is actually and unfortunately very illustrative of this addon.

If I want to use this addon and get all the assets to work, I have to use the very first version of the addon that I kept, with the drawback that none of the sidewalk materials work. Any version after the first version is broken unfortunately and riddled with issues. I would not recommend a purchase of this product until the devs get all their fixes in. They are busy giving people rebates for their add-ons that do not work properly and have not corrected them. Also, the dev says the latest version of the addon works in Blender 3.5 but when you install the addon it says it was written for Blender 3.5.1, which begs the question why there is no backward compatibility with any version of Blender.

Overall I am really not satisfied with the addon, or the documentation and would really encourage the developers to clean up their act when it comes to this addon and get serious about the quality they provide and not just the wow factor.

Great idea but super glitchy, unfortunately, roads don't flow or work with non-flat terrain very well, also you can disable things like cars but it still creates them, then you go to modifiers and turn them off and they disappear but still show up in the render

Once the intersections and optimisations are done this will be a 5 star asset - The quality is excellent and with some development it will be an enormous time saver for visualisation work.

Requests from me....
Better adaptation to uneven surfaces - it's a little hard to use this on an uneven terrain - especially intersections.
Narrower road options - needs narrow roads and single lane options.
Easier ways of changing road texture or presets (sorry if they're there and I missed them!)
By default could all the options be off? First thing I do is turn off all the people, cars, etc to get decent performance. Also would be good to have bounding box options for features - especially trees.
Overall a really good value, useful asset - just needs a few glitches fixed and optimisations - once done, I'd have no hesitation recommending it.

Thank you for your feedback on the Next Street add-on. We appreciate your positive comments and are actively working on addressing the requested improvements. We will enhance the adaptation to uneven surfaces, provide narrower road options, and improve the process of changing road textures. We will also consider your suggestion to have all options off by default for better performance. Additionally, we will explore the possibility of implementing bounding box options for features like trees. Your feedback is valuable, and we are committed to delivering an optimized and recommended product.

The idea of the Addon is great, but for whatever reason, it is extremely glitchy and doesn't work worth anything when I use it in my Blender Version (3.4.1). I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling it, using it in an Empty Blend File, and changing Blender versions, but it is still glitchy and can't create a straight non twisted road. That is very unfortunate, this addon had a lot of potential.

We would be happy if you contact our support to work on a solution for this issue.
However, we are working on fixing some glitches that happen with the intersection of the roads and making the addon more optimized for heavy use.

Great addon. But.. the cars have no driver. Perhaps next update?
