Hi everyone! I have been using OSM for procedural road and city block generation. But recently I think something happend with either OSM maps or the mapbox labs tool in Houdini and while it downloads maps - its not processing any/breaks on import. I think there is potentially a problem with the Python script, but I am not proficient with scripting enough to fix that. Its usually giving out "file not found" with an occasional not breaking, but outputting 0 geo.

So I was wondering if anyone has fixes/alternatives for OSM? I am looking for something that hopefully can give out height maps for terraign, curves for roads and maybe some sort of guide geometry for building placement. I have conseidered Laserscans - but the free material is limited, and its mostly good for terrain only.

Thanks!

Hi GalinaB! While I don't have a full answer to your question, I just wanted to clarify that Labs no longer supports the Mapbox SOP plugin. However, Labs OSM Import SOP is working just fine on the few tests I've tried.
