    Beautiful work Mario. I hope you come up with a tutorial and maybe a lessons learned blog to help those of us that are still learning. Can't wait for this track.

    thanks for comments.
    The circuit will take some time. My concern is that it is as accurately as possible in fact I make several corrections mainly in curve 2.

    Currently I am improving my script "TrackMaker" which uses splines and I'm seriously considering redoing the whole road.

    Using splines is much faster and don't get bumpy. Before if I apply directly the Pointcloud to a mesh the road was very bumpy and only apply to center spline. My LIDAR data is aerial not ground scan. :(

    So i will try to build road track using splines and then apply the Pointcloud.
    I use Virgina for testing can follow here

    I try to do all my work on " Virgina " too, but it doesn't always work, it keeps having a headache.
    Great work tho, I love this track.

    This really does look fantastic. Much preferable to the other version with it's questionable origins etc. Mario, what's your framework for deciding what to work on/donations and such?

    Thanks.

    I'm thinking about it how to get my tracks alive.
    Maybe will be payware I think is the only way.

    How 'bout you give me the track, for free of course, I will run it exclusively and you give me a list of people who are allowed on my server (those who have donated) and anyone else who runs it is a criminal. :p
