[Jaasu]

1.0.1

ADDED:

• Preview TV cameras to Circuit layout

• Sprint (Short) track map last corner
• Sprint (Short) UI map last corner
• Track day layout timing

CHANGED:

• Track day layout pit exit downhill is no longer defined as pit area

Preview TV cameras added in this version to Circuit layout will receive more tweaks and will be added later to all other layouts. Yes, this will replace current TV cameras, both grandstand cameras will remain unchanged.

Very nice work. I think the detailed mesh is good although perhaps the bumps are ever so slightly over pronounced, particularly in the tight hairpin-like corners.

Also undulations seem a bit extreme compared to other tracks

 

[Victor M Fernandez]

Well there does seems to be issue and found the one causing it. This will be fixed in next version, thanks for reporting

Thanks to you. You are the one offering this great MOD.

Thanks for the feedback. Road mesh is something I'd like to get better and I'll probably tweak it later on, however, because I haven't driven on the real track I don't have any reference how bumpy it actually is. Adding random bumps just somewhere totally random places and then comparing it to other tracks doesn't sound much better either but sadly only option at the moment.

I'm bringing this back to life. Here is small preview of what I'm currently working on. Alastaro Circuit's patch 2.0 graphics overhaul, multilayer texture based on satellite image. Everything obviously is work in progress.

 

[Jebus]

Great news, looking forward to it!

Thank U so much

The idea of using the satellite images is cool, but currently it is quite distracting, i dont normally care about the grass textures or anything but currently these seem too low detail to not be distracting, perhaps when the 3d grass is over the top of them they will look better though

noticed some trees suddenly got quite saturated/luminous where they looked quite natural in old version

the cones on the start/finish straight can launch you up into the air, any reason not to just make them non collidable? similar for the apex markers, whilst you moved them in, seems like you might still go off and have your race ended by them unnecessarily

other than that seems good

Track is good to drive but i agree with Chris. Some 3D-grass would be nice. So the track looks a bit naked

Thanks for the feedback first I'd like to point out that the current textures are multilayer texture based on satellite images. If you actually take closer look to sandy areas there is sand and not pixelated satellite image. Main reason why 3d grass isn't there at the moment is because we don't have anymore that perfect golf course lawn so I have to work more with the grass and ground to get it work. Most likely I'll add 3d grass later on with tweaks to the current textures.

It seems like all I get for the trees is that they're either too dark or too bright

I think you're just trying to get good time by going extra wide in last corner


Lastly small comparison what the textures are and probably could be:

 

[Chris Kennedy]

sounds good, hope it works out

regarding too dark/too bright comments, dont know if you are aware of how autoexposure can cause problems when it comes to track making? i made a post a while ago here that might be useful if not: http://www.assettocorsa.net/forum/i...ational-raceway-0-6.29853/page-17#post-667969

about the collidables, not really about gaining time, just tooling around, didnt think many people set such objects to be collidable is all

 

[Jaasu]

We sure may see some changes happening to those cones in the future...

do people get a penalty when cutting T1? it's creating rather dangerous situations. could you make sure there's a cut registered when going wide?

Released new update to change this.

Here's the replay of my issues. It's near the turn 6 of the full circuit. This the AI car that flipped and then landed in the hole I drove into during a practice session.

Noted. This will be fixed in next update.

In the couple of first corners I am falling down into eternity, in drift layout.
