Awesome ideas!

And, instead of a road and a map, the checkpoints would tell you where to go next!!! And if you don't know your geography, YOU LOSE!!! HAHAHAHA!

although... if you DID have to go across the world, the water should be shallow...

Any more ideas?

I recently changed the bottom HALF of my backdrop for Isla Nublar to a more suitable texture that blends with the textures of the track more. In fact, I took the main ground texture of my track and extended it into a 256x256 texture that fades nicely to give the illusion of depth.

My question ...

Hard part #1:

How to make both day AND night... haha

Hard part #2:

How to get distances and sizes right, while still keeping with the crazy projection needed to fit a square map. Not to mention applying textures.

Good news:

I have these awesome 'Earth at night' textures with lights where major ...

cool pics, i like the 'rings' track, Malibu....

But I think the ppl of this site deserve something better...


Not just north america... not just a couple textures for grass, rock, and snow. Not just... uh... Saturn and its rings. :P

I think my next NEXT track will be something distinctively ...

Ahhh, COPE, I was just reading that line myself, and it's confusing....

It's my OPINION that the difference between good tracks and bad tracks <b><u>SHOULD</u></b> be a matter of preference.

Really, if I were in charge of this site, MAYBE 12 or 13 of these tracks would make it to the d/l page... I ...

Yeah, i guess Alt. bias makes a big difference. Personally, I like tracks that have a little darkness to them, and you can give the objects and terrain a little shadow if you wanna keep the sun at an angle.

Also, start making tracks just for yourself, not for download... you'll find that it gives ...

Y'know, this is a general comment, and i've downloaded these tracks... I think I'd be a pretty strict individual when it comes to choosing whether something should be beta or released.

I've seen (and MADE, for that matter) far too many tracks that are released that SHOULD be beta... there is no ...

You know what would be a cool track idea?

A mock-up miniature world with satellite textures and proportional terrain... 8)

You'd need a pretty weird projection of the world, tho, to fit a spherical shape onto a square layout, but the grid is inherently a sphere anyway, right?

I think it would ...

I'd like somebody to post on the garage times that my best time with this track is 3:56.07.

I also have to say that I love the picture with this track, check it out and d/l it! It's a moderately big d/l, but ur not downloading 2 megs of music, ur gettin' ur d/l's worth in textures and models.

Tell ...

wow, thanks! :)

first track... that was kind of a stretch. I tested two "tracks" (if you can call them that) before this one...

Atlantis (basically complex ground box work with NO models whatsoever! lol)

and Obstacle Course (a small parking lot tour with an easter egg hunt of TRAXX "boxes ...

You are now my God.

I am not worthy!!!... I am not worthy!!!

This fixes almost every single track that Traxx has messed up. ANYTIME you need custom textures... ANYTIME...

oh, be sure to d/l my new track, Isla Nublar, at KC's site.
The computer trucks are a bit slow, but I think you'll like.

Just recently, I finished up on a track I was building. It had always worked in the game, and then I purged textures and models... immediately after doing so, I podded the file and went back in.

Now it doesn't work!

It says there is a bad texture size: NULL.RAW.

What is going on?! :x

Thanks ...
