Here's another track. Any comments are welcome, it could be that its too bland. This time I used model bridges

This track was finished some weeks ago but I wanted to wait to post here after I learned some things from HiddenAirbase (like adding models [:P] ).

Dunno if you like the style, but here it is,

Those first two jumps are extremely long. I never made it with 1600 gears. Rookies will never make it.

On a lighter note, that sail boat needs ballast hehe.

Overall, excellent work.

i havent tried this track, so ill refer to phineus's pictures.

i dont know if the arctic wasteland textures set came with all four turns (i know it would if you used the txx), or just compressed to one. but i think you will have better luck with seams if you use all four turns instead of just rotating one. i know it will add more textures, but i dont think it should be too much trouble.

Oh yeah, a very nice piece of work you got going here, Ash! Nothing to add to what Phin already found, but I'll look more tomorrow. I'm dead tired at the moment, and I have a knack for screwing stuff up when I'm in this condition.

Too bad there isn't an end section for these spots.

If you're patient, I'm sure we can find something for you.

Then there's overlapping models on this bridge.

It's not a big deal, but maybe something to think about would be like a draw bridge affair so you actually jump over and on to the second section. I don't know, just trying to think of a way around the overlap.

Very good work. This one's almost ready.

I dont know what you mean to solve the bridge problem, do i have to put them next to each other and not make them overlap?

And yes, im patient, i will also need a texture with half grey half white. To know what I mean, drive to the skipiste go down and go right. There is a snow cat base over there and take a look at the corners, you will see what I mean.

Here you go.

Just rotate them for the other directions. That 'should' work.

[ edit ] and I tossed in a corner piece for you. I haven't tried it so I hope it works well enough.

As for the bridge, I don't know. I mean, it's not terribly bad.. but I did notice it on the first pass because the textures do some flickering. We could possibly resize it too.

Nothing from me - it's looking good, real good, bud. Keep up the nice work!
