    Laguna is not dead, Senormen still working to perfection. Check his FB.

    The layout is very inaccurate as it's originally built in the early-mid 2000's while Mario was working off Lidar data.

    I dont think Laguna has changed much since the early 90's, if at all... and the current version feels pretty good to me.(Senormen 1.01)

    And Mario's work here is for Road Atlanta, which I agree that the current available version is quite inaccurate, but enjoyable nonetheless.

    Are there any more accurate versions of Laguna that you know of? I would love to try them, Laguna is about as close as you can get to a hometown track for me(other than Sonoma) and is one of my absolute favourites. :)

    Cheers

    I've seen three different ports of Laguna over the years but they're all conversions of the same source. There was one in the works for Assetto Corsa but the guy abandoned it, so only in iRacing or RaceRoom you'll find better versions of it. Sonoma was in the works by mianiak but who knows if he is still updating it or any ETA on it, he hasn't been around in a long time.

    Would you consider a donate model instead? I understand your wish to be rewarded financial for your efforts, but if this track is astill good as it looks, I think most people would gladly donate!

    I think that's a little unfair?

    He wants rewarding for the effort he's put into creating something that others will use and enjoy.
    Some people are happy to create content for the community. Others like to leave it to the individual to decide on payment via a donate button. And then some want payment for their services.
    All 3 are valid and acceptable in my eyes.
    Would you work for nothing?

    Unfair ? Working for free, so people like that nerux guy (and others) can complain as a thank you. Sounds good to me.
    (this was a sarcastic post)

    I'm really not sure where to start with that reply. And to be honest I stopped reading after the first sentence.

    I think that concludes our conversation and I will not be replying.

    He can put whatever price he wants.
    Your option is to buy or not to buy.
    There is no third option.
    Got it?

    I think you just want stuff for free.

    I'm not sure he does, but any argument he had was lost in an obusive and foul mouthed rant.

    8 months after joining these forums I've now just ignored my first poster.
    A shame and also a sign of just how decent these forums are!

    Back to the track though, if it does get released it and plays acceptably, then we are all in for a treat.

    13 messages, and already a candidate for ban, congratulations.
    Besides, no one asked for donations before release, Mario asked for some protection for his work. All it takes is one buyer sharing the track, and instead of making some money to buy food and useless stuff like that, you earn nothing because the track is available for free.

    No need to get angry. I removed the over the top comments. Mario is spending his time on the project, only he can decide what he wants to do with it. If you don't like that, don't get mad.

    Nah.
    By the sound of your tantrums it is obvious you are jealous because you cannot afford to buy it.
    I see what you are trying to do. Attacking the author hoping he could drop his decision to charge for this mod.
