 Note: for example plain deserts (heightmap) of iraq easily allows OSM road features of 9000 but the rugged mountains (heightmap) of afghanistan crashes for less then 5000. So use your own judgement with all these gazillion variables when you track down the amount of roads your terrain can handle. Note: for example plain deserts (heightmap) of iraq easily allows OSM road features of 9000 but the rugged mountains (heightmap) of afghanistan crashes for less then 5000.

 +Mexico juarez 81km terrain had 7469 road features which caused virtual blocks crash. After global mapper 6m combine 4056 it still crashed. Finally after I cleanly reduced the features by deleting FCLASS roads to number I didn't write down (damn) and then 6m combine down to 1139 the crash was avoided.
  
 OSM shapefiles come with all kinds of backyard "​path"​ roads etc, you might want if not have to remove some of these. OSM shapefiles come with all kinds of backyard "​path"​ roads etc, you might want if not have to remove some of these.

 +====== Combine Road Features ======

 +USA Los Angels 40km terrain openstreetmap.org road polylines even after "bad roads" reduction were over 17,000 features which is like ten thousand over the limit. They need to be reduced. Please note that this was some very odd issue on these specific OSM shapes because normal roads / streets were split up to hundreds of small features when it should have been one feature.
 +
 +I have not experienced such splitting up of polylines in other terrains in this scale.

 +Select all roads -> RMB in the viewport -> crop/​combine/​split functions -> combine. Then use about 6 meter value, should work fine (we used also 20m but that might be too large). In select combine options menu let it be default (combine any overlapping and everything else ticked).
