Well I created a map with spatialite_gui and JOSM, saved the as a SHP file which I apended with sbuilder. I then converted the lines into roads by selecting, right clicking then selecting properties, then vector lines and then selected concreate 2 lanes. Is this correct?

Yes, that sounds right to me.

1. Is there any other scenery in the area, partcularly photo-real ground tiles? Vector elements will not display over photo-real.

2. Have you tried loading the roads bgl in TMFViewer just to check that the bgl is good?

3. Sorry to ask the obvious, but this has often happened - are you looking in the right place? Were the roads located in the area of your scenery?

Best regards.
