Pathix-Roads Generator earns its place in the superhive library for its point-based approach to road networks, letting artists redesign layouts by moving points instead of redrawing curves.
Pathix-Roads Generator is a procedural addon for Blender that builds road networks from points rather than drawn curves. Place a point, extend another from it, and move points anywhere while the road updates instantly. Every point controls the shape and branching of the network, so layouts can be redesigned in seconds without rebuilding roads each time something changes.
The generator handles single or double paths, from one to seven paths, with per-road lane width and count control. Widths range from 2 to 5 metres, and intersections are supported. Sidewalks come with seven materials plus five bench types, and sidewalk width and elements are adjustable. You can add custom elements, control their scale, and change their spacing, offset X and offset Y.
Built for quick, clean blockouts, Pathix is aimed at game developers, architectural visualization, urban environment artists, and both beginners and professionals. It runs on Cycles and includes documentation. Version 1.1.0 adds per-road lane width and count control along with custom element support.
Pathix-Roads Generator is best for game developers, architectural visualization, and urban environment artists building fast, editable road blockouts for cities and large scenes.
Pathix-Roads Generator is completely free to download and use.
Pathix-Roads Generator is compatible with Blender 4.5, and the listing notes support across Blender versions 4.5 through 5.0. The addon uses the Cycles render engine. If you work in a different Blender release, check the developer's page to confirm compatibility before installing, since procedural addons can depend on the geometry nodes behaviour available in specific versions.
Pathix-Roads Generator lets you set single or double paths and choose from one to seven paths, with per-road lane width and count control. Path widths range from 2 to 5 metres, and intersections are supported. Sidewalks offer seven materials, five bench types, and adjustable width and elements. You can also add custom elements and control their scale, spacing, offset X and offset Y.
Pathix-Roads Generator uses point-based control instead of drawing curves or rebuilding roads whenever something changes. You place a point, extend another from it, and move points anywhere while the road updates instantly. Every point controls the shape and branching of the network, which lets you explore ideas and redesign your layout in seconds while keeping the network fully editable.
Pathix-Roads Generator is listed as free in this catalog. The addon is distributed under the GPL license and comes with documentation, and a demo video is available for reference. For current licensing terms and any purchase details, check the developer's page directly, since the terms shown elsewhere may differ from what is listed here. Confirming on the developer's page is the safest way to see the up-to-date conditions before you install and use the addon.
