You can copy FRG_Nodes.blend and use it to create your own generators.
And FRG_Samples contains examples of roads and there are 6 of them:
  1. Nature (scattering)
  2. City (bridge)
  3. Two tunnels
  4. Car animation - Simple Road
  5. Locomotive animation - Simple railway
  6. City road with bus stops

F2
F2 is for blender version 4.1+
Inside 3 files: FRG_Nodes_v1_5, Old Metal Bridge(blender_4_1),Japanese Wood Bridge
Copy FRG_Nodes_v1_5.blend if you want to create your own roads.
And others contain new samples for generating bridges.

How to use/import?
This is not an add-on, but a modifier setup and all its nodes must be imported using the Append function or from Asset browser.
Unzip F1 or F2
1) If you want to create your own road generator, duplicate "blank" FRG_Nodes_{version}.blend file and create using FRG nodes.

2) If you want to use ready samples use Asset Browser
- Add the folder to the assets path in blender Preferences > File Paths > Asset Libraries > +
- Click and drag from the asset browser to bring in Road Sample objects!

For samples with Trim modifier, you need to move them to the zero position. The position of objects in the collection trim is not riveted to the road. If you create your own roads, this should be taken into account. When you move roads, you also need to move the objects inside trim collections.

You can play with the samples in the test blend file, there is already a collection for each sample.



*Update: append from FRG_Nodes_v_x_x.blend file.

How to control width using nearest curve radius

To disable it just remove curve.
