Placing a car on a sloped topography

I am currently modelling and visualizing a neighborhood for an assignment at work. Is there any way to place a car correctly at a curved surface? Or do I have to play around with topography to make it look real?

I found this!

If you switch the property 'Always vertical' off in the Revit/Enscape family and in the nested family, then the asset follows the slope of its host, in this case a floor..

So you may need a dummy element for the car to follow then hide.

Check off always vertical and it should allows you to placed the object on curve surface

You have a habit of just repeating exactly what other people have already said... Do you not read the whole post before you comment? Or do you just not care?

The entire purpose is to make it clear for OP so they get the best solution. There are many members who post the same thing as I did afterward and they get the credit. So it is up the OP to see which solution works best for them. You lose some and win some.

Just because other people may occasionally do it does not mean you have to go out of your way to do it as well.

 

If someone else gives the correct solution, which has already happened, feel free to give it a like to signify your approval, rather than fishing for "accepted solutions" for yourself.

Think of it this way, if one or more people give the same answers. This should give OP confidence this it the right way to go. I am not here to get likes or fishing for approval. Somehow you have a vendetta against me after the last post that really grinds your gears.

Its not a vendetta. I'm not out here trying to get you banned or something. I'm simply telling you how annoying it is. In no setting is repeating what someone else has already said an acceptable way to get a message across. The fact that you are acknowledging that you know full well it has already been said makes it even worse. If you feel the irresistible urge to say something that's already been said, then at least acknowledge that someone else has already said the correct thing.

on a curved surface? Make the Car Family Work Plane-Based and host it to a Named Reference Plane in the Project. Then rotate  the angle of the Ref. Plane until both tires contact the pavement.  Rubber meets the road.

Just in case this was already mentioned by somebody else above: I apologize for stepping on you. I don't often read every single reply post either.  Dang, I barely read the entirety of the original post.  Usually just a quick scan to get the gist of it.  Sometimes I have a speed-reading accident.  :zwinkerndes_Gesicht:

Thank you to Jay, Syman and barth for offering a solution. I will give it a try the next time I am on my work computer.

 

That being said, starting an argument that is completely unrelated to my question is entirely unnecessary and I have reported the comments that don't belong here. I don't mind several people giving me the same answer as these people gave me the answer in different ways. Some with text, some with pictures, all with different wording, and all three posts have been helpful. Sometimes one person can explain something in a different way, and then it's all about the interpretation of the reader. If other people come onto the forum with the same question, that person might find one of the other wordings more helpful. So again, thank you helping me out with this issue.
