Curved surfaces like BUMPS

So I'm looking for a way to make a curved ground surface for my actor to follow. I know GS doesn't support paths, but was wondering if anyone has a specific technique I could use to accomplish this?

UtopianGames? I've heard you have mastered it with BUMPS. Any advice?

Is it just placing a series of ground actors in position and angling each one slightly to make a fake curved surface?

Ideas?

    Yes you are correct but it takes a bit of practice and you will probably have to go inside and change the size because you can only squeeze them so far with the handles.

    You can make a nice curve using less actors than you think so try a few then add more as you need them.

    GL!

    If your using a lot of the same curves it might be a good idea to jot down the x y positions relative to the sprite of the curve and spawn the masks, that way you wont have to manually place them all the time.

    Yet another brilliant time saver from the master of GS! ;-) I appreciate it.
