The "What Are You Working On?" Thread

It's been a while since I remembered to put a banana for scale in my screenshots. so now you know how big a Firebird is.

What's 50.000 trees ?

baking shadows for 15min thermostat 8 (plus a tea spoon of olive oil)

then sprinkle it above your terrain diffuse

and voila, best served with more bushes next time + a minor headache

that's also me, collapsing all my trees into custom made normals to achieve asome kstree_group-looking trees. There's the actual reason it's already dark outside :x

Ben going all Tree Bae on us.

Someone should make some drones from DJI, Parrot and FreeFly to add crowd immersion when we race by. Maybe well spot a drone or two taking pictures?

New WIP of a new track set in the Rocky Mountains National Park area in Colorado. Trying the things I've learned to create a larger area (Its around 25 km circuit). Not a lot of details yet but its pretty fun to drive.

So, work has been insane the last few months and spare time has been pretty limited as a result. I still haven't been able to figure out the interior design for the Fenix, so while I'm mulling over that I've been trying some new things for the track I'm working on; including an overhaul of the rock faces. I had a few nice comments about them last time I posted an update, but I still wasn't happy with them.

What do you all think about this attempt?

This is what the previous attempt looked like:

Not an apples to apples comparison, of course, but I'd like to know your input all the same!

The new ones look more interesting with the silhouette and shading for sure...maybe a tad more colour variation on the texture would help too?

on another note...isn't that drop in the curb sawtooth a little too insane?

Spectacular setting

Mistakes were made.

Yeah, some more variation is needed. Right now it's a purely procedural item, so I need to work out an effective method of baking it all down into usable geometry and textures. Still lots of experimenting to do, but I think it's heading in a solid direction.

You very well could be right. I'll have to have a look at the values and check

Appeared deeper on my phonescreen one of the edges was hardly visible.

Kunos' Spa is showing its age lately... so I've been giving it a bit of a makeover for my own amusement.

Any progress reports on this?
I love it so much, looks amazing.

Yup, just doing some final texture adjustments. I baked AO with CSP optix bakery. and LeBluem gave me an OK to use his night lights configuration

-edit- I can see it now

Ah yes, can't wait! It is really clean and minimalistic.

Elevation and angles look great.
Makes a big difference over the old conversion we have in the game already.

Thanks.
Yeah it's really off in many places, mostly elevation, which in the old (Race07 rip based) circulating versions is basically just straights of varying incline connecting the corners. Also no real camber/crowning, the track surface had vertices on each tarmac border, but non in the middle. Mine won't be that accurate unfortunately in this aspect, as the scan isn't fine enough, but hopefully still miles better. I posted some screens on the ACM forums, but the pit-straight on the other versions is comically off because whoever made it did not realise that the pits are level, but the track isn't, and made the pits inclined too, but regarding buildings in the wrong direction

I love Oschersleben, so I'm pretty psyched!
