It is your opinion. I like to drive on this circuit and i think some people too. You don't like it but me yes. Also this is the only one Goodwood track we have.

If you can do better, just do it.

If you haven't noticed from other threads, Lilski already has two other tracks prioritized: Watkins Glen & Augusta. I'm not gonna let him deviate from those plans

@LilSki has been posting that google earth images can be very inacurrate too, but I wonder how much.

I have compared google images to Ordnance Survey master map data and agree. Over 1km between points the google image can be up to 10m out, so if your circuit is 2km wide east to west you could be over a track width out of position.

I've already begun the layout of the hillclimb

Seems like you'll get this one done before I do. PM me and I'll send you the LIDAR as an FBX.

I'll post something about how to process the UK LIDAR for use when I get time.

You are working on it too ?

What about you guys, both working on it, is it possible to do efficiently ? Because I guess that two people working on same track could end up being even more difficult. Unless both would be doing well defined and organised tasks, which wouldn't be interfering each other, like trackside objects vs track, terrain vs vegetation vs textures...

Thanks for the link Willy

I already see Goodwood circuit cloud opened with Cloud Compare

Now I have no idea what to do lol (not saying that I'm going to do the track, I'm just interested to try working with point cloud).

I'm off to another UK hill climb event tomorrow, at the Chateau Impney in Worcestershire

Maybe I'll be inspired to mod it when I get back home

Once you have all the tiles you want in cloud compare you need to mesh it. I'm on my phone but it's something like Edit menu --> Mesh --> XY Plane

You need to select the cloud elements in the tree that you want to mesh. Then export it

I didn't see better Goodwood track than the one we have. So no, it's haven't done.
What the **** is the problem with this community of kid ? Each time i write a little comment many people come to say me one thing.

You need to respect others people and their opinions. Because you make mod you think you'r better than other people ? Come on..

This guy... You understand that LilSki is about 1000 times more competitive in this field than you ? You didn't make much sense, so you got a response. What else do you want, everybody to agree with you ? There is no point to escalate this further. The Goodwood mod which we have is not accurate enough, and is outdated conversion (more than ten years old model), also conversion lacks TLC too. Very fun fun anyways, but could be much better. It has many nice textures though lol

Also it has been said already in this thread before, so it me this looks like ordering for attention.

Do you see lidar screen above ?

Awesome day at the Chateau Impney Hillclimb!

Only 1000 yards long, so could be a possible mod-in-waiting for me

Is that the older half litre F3s?

Fat-Alfie · Jul 9, 2017

6 cylinder 250F, apparently - it sounded beautiful

JacobGames · Jul 11, 2017

I was thinking of doing this, and converting from GT6, but sadly I don't think that is possible

mantasisg · Jul 11, 2017

You mean ripping it off

I wanted to rip off XJ13 for my personal use, but then decided that I'll better spend that time modeling something from scratch

aphidgod · Jul 11, 2017

I think that worked out well.

Would it be possible to include the garages as well so that you drive up to the start line and drive by all the other cars which are there for exposition? And if you could add a path from the finish line to the start line so you don't have to teleport back to the pits?
