After testing a recently revised version of the track I've been taking a tour in Street View of the circuit and felt an urge to do some work on the main shader in the scene - "Background" material in the hills and the near field. The original has some unpleasant "gray goo" overall that needed changing from
to
It works better in different weather, seasons and sunlight. So if you want to try it for yourself - open "..\content\tracks\the_isle_of_man_tt\traffic\extension\ext_config.ini" and add at the end new paragraph
Code:[SHADER_REPLACEMENT_...] MATERIALS = Background DOUBLE_FACE_SHADOW_BIASED=1 RESOURCE_0 = txDetailR RESOURCE_TEXTURE_0 = FMGrass02.dds RESOURCE_1 = txDetailG RESOURCE_TEXTURE_1 = FMGrass01.dds PROP_0 = ksAmbient, 0.4 PROP_1 = ksDiffuse, 0.1 PROP_2 = ksAlphaRef, 0 PROP_3 = multR, 0.01 PROP_4 = multG, 0.0325 PROP_5 = magicMult, 0.9
If you don't have RainFX code yet - simple and working after pasting it in the same file
Code:[RAIN_FX] PUDDLES_MATERIALS = Tarmac? SOAKING_MATERIALS = Tarmac?, OldSpa SMOOTH_MATERIALS = ROUGH_MATERIALS = LINES_MATERIALS =
Below are some samples of the changed terrain.
