Rusty Valley Raceway - An old abandoned track in the middle of nowhere

Greetings, fellow racers!
I present you Rusty Valley Raceway, my first track I made after six months of on and off Blender learning.

This an old abandoned track in the middle of American nowhere. With deteriorated road surface, severe elevation changes and some negative camber surprises you are in for a harsh rollercoaster of a ride! I hope you enjoy!

This track is best suited for road cars with robust suspension, not so much for racing cars unless...

Not a bad track, nicely detailed, layout is challenging. But with my DD wheel, the road surface isn't really fun. Lowering FFB gain is no solution because it takes away from the car feel. I don't mind a bumpy old track at all, but this is a bit much imo.
Also, I had to lower track exposure (in SOL) to 30% to get rid of the overexposure.

Edit: forgot to mention: don't use capital letters in the file name, CM (content manager) doesn't like that and records no driven distance.

Good job thank you

I'll have to look in to road surface situation, it would've been so much easier if I had a DD wheel

I don't know about SOL though, all my screenshots in overview are made with 100% exposure, I guess with all the CSP and SOL version combinations out there it's like a lottery. Looks like I'll have to wait for more feedback from different people with different systems.

Thanks for the track.
I'm seeing a lot of z-fighting on the billboards, they flicker quite badly at distance. Anyone else, or is it my settings?

Yeah, had this problem from the start and not with all but with some billboards for some reason! I'm really hoping someone can point out the solution because nothing I've done helped yet.

UPD:
Ok, I found the solution, will be fixed in the next update

An interesting track, significant elevation changes please, the road is moderately bumpy (I have t300rs)
The track allows you to have fun, slide, it's interesting to drive a car (retro car)
Regarding the problems, I have strange artifacts on the sides of the roadway, from a distance it seems that the edges are framed by a dotted line, but near it becomes a solid line (seen in the video) and I only have this on this track.

Spoiler

Thanks for feedback!
I think I have a solution for your artifact issue. Try turning up Anisotropic Filtering to 16x or at least 8x either in AC Video setting or GPU (NVIDIA) panel. This should fix it.

I wanted to first write that I already have it turned on at 16x, but I decided to check it first, and indeed, in the NVIDIA panel, all the settings for this game were reset to default (although I configured them myself earlier) and by default there is "control from the application" , and in the game itself, anisotropic filtering was turned off on the advice from this forum, such a collision))
everything is working now, thanks.
Do you plan to add cameras in replays?

Glad to hear everything worked out!
I want to make cameras, although last time I tried KS-editor behaved very buggy so I failed, I'll try and do it again when I have more free time.

Fixes + new VAO

- baked new VAO patch (track looks a bit more contrasty)
- made some textures look darkes and less saturated for less cartooney look
- found and fixes more alpha textures being transparent in a wrong way and looking weird.
- gave a secret tent a proper textile texture
