Track Backrounds

[grant977]

Ok I want to make a backround for my track thats different than the default one bobs spits out. But when I swap what i want with the damned BKxx files in the sky.mas everything is jumble there seems to be no method to the madness. And after two days of trying and failing i need help. I do have 3d sim ed but that is overly Complicated and has been even more of a pain in the ass than the trial and error with bobs. Please help.

What kind of background do you want? I've swapped plenty of them, and there are two ready-made sky.mas files ones around, hilly ones (at least there were before the file section of RDP went AWOL..) Normally I think there's only 2 to 6 bkxx.dds files and they're repeating around the sky.mas.

(For a quick fix, you might want to check out my Vaca Valley and Hokkaido Speed Park tracks, one is low flat scenery and the other hilly wooded mountains, should be able to put their sky files in another track.)

They also repeat. For Killarney, I put a table mountain picture in for one of the pictures, and it appeared twice around the scenery.

I have one skypack for GTR evo: http://cream.galleria.fi/BTB/Misc/SkyPack1.zip You can use that as a base to create your own. I don't know on what title you're building, that is very useful info so people here can refer to correct BTB version and game.
