[RELEASE] Nordschleife Tourist v1.65 beta

Can anyone give me a hint where I can download the most recent version (including the improvements from DJCruicky and Tosch) ?
 
Alright! Usually when I see this topic on top of the locations forum I'm like "uhh, are they still rambling about this track and its creator without doing anything productive?" But now I'm excited again! :)
Question: when you guys talk about curbs/kurbs, do you mean the usual white/red stones in the corners, or those odd looking high borders on some parts of the track that Pleclair has created for some reason? I hope it's the last one, because I've tried to search for those "curbs" in real videos (and Forza/GT videos), but I can't find any proof of existence. If I could get my hands on the 3d mesh, I'd like to remove them.
 
Any news on the update? :)

DJC is tweaking the AIW file to make it league ready. That's a tricky task because there is not much room for the cars in the pitlane/garage area and needs some testing.
The rest looks pretty good. We have done some performance optimisations with the LOD settings. The textures have been resized, so the memory footprint should be smaller. We have modified the tdf (no dust on curbs, better rainspray, added missing materials). The list is endless. :D
One question remains. Should we rename the track (to avoid collisions with older versions) and what name should we use?
 
Mh, no need to rename it IMO.
When everything works than nobody should use an older version anyways!

But: the naming "Ring tourist" is in general not the best solution.
I´m always looking in the list under "N" like Nordschleife or Nürburgring, then I remember...

"Nordschleife" would be the best name, imo.

Yep I would name it "Nordschleife Tourist" so it can be distinguished from versions as “Nordschleife VLN” or “Nordschleife 24h” that might follow in the future.

I’m really excited about the upcoming release, and thank you so much in advance!

oh could you include the version number in the loading screen maybe?
