On certain drag courses like WF8, Monster Mash, and tampa 07, I've found a hidden checkpoint that dosen't suit a leauge any good. Now the wierdest thing was they weren't there when I first got them. WHAT IS GOING ON!!!!!!!!!!??????????!!!!!!!!!!!

it's just a thing that the game puts in itself.
don't worry, it's normal. it happens with all the tracks "with out" checkpoints put in. if you make a track in traxx with no checkpoints, the game itself will put one about a simulated mile away from the nearest object. :idea: :D :) [(-:] 8) [nyuk] :P [:P] [;)] [:-)] this helps the game not to crash or confuse itself. [bump] [;)]

I just checked WF8 and the checkpoint is gone. Does the game switch checkpoint locations or something on ones that have no checkpoints???? Also how did u figure that out. I'm so confused.

> Does the game switch checkpoint locations or something

No. It's located at 0,0,0 in the terrain and is only a pointer. If you press the F key you'll turn the finder on and off and you can see the location never moves.

> how did u figure that out.

Nothing to figure out. When you play the game a while you'll come across many things like this.

oh I didnt know it was real, I figured it was just like a checkpoint array that was blank, thus 0.0.0. i never figured it was intentially done that way. and since you cant trip it anyways...

I think so. There is only 1 WF8 track out there right. It is all of them in the racing lane that makes a left hand turn. It drives me nuts. First its not there, then its there, then its gone, now its there why does the game do this?????

If you press the F key, you can toggle the checkpoint finder on and off.
