Amazing progress from previous versions! can't wait to see trees and replay cameras, really like how the whole ambience of the track is coming to life.

Thanks a lot Dan, yeah this version is completely different... I think the only things left from the previous version are a couple of ini files... everything else has been reworked.

I was tempted to make some cams... but at approx 3 hours per layout... only to have trees blocking cams... made sense to wait.

They will be coming... and I've got the feeling... there will be vast views of them ;)
what a great improvement. Sense of speed is now much better as before

Phoenix77
Thanks Manfred, yeah the sense of speed can now get quite scary... drive safely :)
Great progress on the track, the road now is way more realistic and textures, colors, bushes etc look amazing! Grazie.

Thanks Guido... really glad you're liking the reworked canyons.
The roads are also placed way more accurately to the real roads.

Have some cool drives mate!
GOAT material, period. Still lots to do, but considering how big it is, a lot has been done so far. Ultimate driving experiance, and imagine it having a traffic option. I bet it will have one in the future. Phoenix, you are one crazy dude. Thank you so much for your work.

Greatest of all Time... That's a seriously big compliment mate :)
Yeah still a lot to do... it's basically around halfway there...
But most if not all of the groundwork is done.

Now it's the more fun part... adding more and more details

And yes... when you do the F7 Freecam view... you can see just how crazy I must be :D

Have loads of fun mate!
Fantastic update!!!
This track is destined to become an all-time classic!
I watched TheSmokingTyre videos on Youtube and your track is just amazing!
Would be so cool if you could add some "props" like power poles, witches hats etc, to give the track some more character.
Thank you so much for this track!!!

Thanks mate, yeah I can recognise almost instantly where Matt... or now Zack is around the canyons. And a guy who lives 10mins from these roads (Lucky Lucky man) says they're Very accurate.

Yeah those props are in the pipeline... and quite a lot more...
Check your emails for a line to the 73km+ of extra roads

And most importantly... have fun!
Amazing Work! Thanks :D

Thanks, and thanks for the review... Have loads of fun!
Fantastic update!! Love your tracks

Thanks mate, really glad you're enjoying my tracks :)
Glorious and no physics bug shaking!! This circuit combined with the headlight mod is perfection!! Thank you !
Phoenix77
Phoenix77
Thanks Cobra... Glad you think that combination is perfection :)
A midnight canyon run has to be done... and now... with the shader mod... it's now a reality :)
Great work on the update. Thanks!

Thanks, glad you're liking it :)
Such a great track. I just wish it looked better on my pc. Share your graphics mods/settings please.
Phoenix77
Phoenix77
Thanks, really glad you're having fun with it... My graphics settings are just natural filter... No graphics mods... My screenshots are just from a different version that I'm working on.
In the NFS Lamborghini this is an absolute blast, I made about 3/4 of the track as I catapulted at 270 km/h into what turned out to be a black hole. Of course needs some work but I'm not sure if I enjoy more with more detail
Phoenix77
Phoenix77
Thanks a lot mate, awesome car choice as well...
Glad you're enjoying it already.... I hope you make it all the way round soon... And really start to push your Lambo.
All it needs is some Police Cruisers to attempt an intecept :D
Awesome road & a must have mod!
Lazy cruising, flat out racing or insane drifting; take your pick, you can do it all.

when will we see an update?
Phoenix77
Phoenix77
Thanks, glad you like it Reggie, it's going to take a while... But the difference will be Huge.
if only you could finish this road, it will be the most downloaded for sure, far better than pacific road.
If you can add bumps, road is never flat.
If you finish ii will be so happy even if it needed donation :)
Phoenix77
Phoenix77
Thanks Thierry, once the groundwork is complete things will speed up, the current version was only a reasonably quick test to see if the layout worked well... And it does... The next version will be very very different ;)

A detailed FFB mesh will be added when the narrower road is in place and I'm 99.9% happy with it.
great

Thanks a lot for rating... Have fun!
This is one of the best mod tracks I currently have!
You did a really good job on this one. I really like the idea of just pure driving ^^
The only thing that bothers me at the moment is that I often glitch through the floor when getting off-track and then I have to restart... could you maybe consider adding some invisible walls or something like that?
Other than that, the track is really awesome!
Phoenix77
Phoenix77
Thanks really glad this is one of your best mod tracks... even in it's current stage. The next version will have road signs and barriers, so you hopefully wont fall off as much :)

All I can suggest for now is don't fly off quite so fast... or hit the terrain too fast or at too steep an angle... That's normally when the glitching through the terrain happens. It happens more on my tracks as some of the drops are a few hundred feet ;)

Thanks a lot for the review and feedback.
This track is genius. Complete lunacy is encouraged. Giant falls. VR bliss. Keeping it simple keeps the FPS up. With road vehicles it has a NFS personality that EA amd SMS only wished they could emulate. Driving passion faithfully simulated. Award winner. THANK YOU!
Phoenix77
Phoenix77
Thanks Craig, really glad you're enjoying it so much in it's present state... It won't always be so simple... But I'll do what I can to keep the FPS's up. It certainly does have an NFS personality to it... only with Assetto Corsa's sublime physics :)

Thanks for taking the time to review :)
Another must have track for road cars fun. Great in multiplayer for "need for speed" driving with friends.
Phoenix77
Phoenix77
Thanks for the review Guido, really like it that you're enjoying another Californian track I'm making... It's also great that it's finally being used in multiplayer. And in a Need for Speed kind of way :)

Dangerous roads, I hope you drive them safely mate :)

Have fun!
In the current state, this track is incredibly fun. The width of the road allows to draw different lines in a succession of fast corners of all types in a mountainous terrain with multitude of slopes. There is a lot of work to be done that will undoubtedly improve this track even more. Thanks to the author for this splendid gift to the simracing community.

Thanks for the review Correca, really really glad you're finding it fun, even at this early stage. Quite a bit of the ground work has been done, but as you say, a lot of work left to be done.

Thanks to some awesome 3DS plugins & scripts I've been recommended, this might be a little less daunting than it would have been otherwise.

The real road is mostly much narrower than this current version
I'd recommend learning the road between the white lines.
95% of the roads shoulders will be going. I just made it wider for now to compensate for the lack of guardrails and road signs.

Drive safely, and good luck making it around all 42km's ;)
OMG what a gem. Can't believe i didn't try it sooner.
Phoenix77

Glad you found it, and glad you think it's a gem, even at this really early stage :)
Drive safely mate... It's a dangerous dangerous road.

If you haven't seen it, you might also like my Pacific Coast track.
23km's of California's PCH coast road.

Thanks for the review :)
Great road track, some awesome views out there especially with custom weathers, even in this unfinished state. Good work!!

Thanks mate, glad you're enjoying it even at this early stage.
Plenty more improvements to follow.
Thanks for taking the time to review :)
