    In a nutshell:
    - all new shadow configuration: you can choose the shadow level to match your capacities of your mashine
    - new fast path for the aiw
    - different shader and higher resolution for the trees
    - modified track naming for a better support of rf2 Rank
    - the flags are animated
    - some minor fixes

    If you update the tracks could you please update the .GDB files with more relevant Event Names.

    Currently we have

    SEBRING_12H.GDB
    Code:
      TrackName = Sebring 12h Course
      EventName = 12h Course
    
    This makes it show up in the server list as 12h Course. Club layout shows up just as Club Course. You look at it and think ok Club Course but what track in the world is it I need to download.. The server list really should show TrackName under the Circuit Tab but instead it shows EventName.

    ISI themselves fall foul of this with all the tracks. Plenty of server called Outer Loop, Inner Loop. If the user didn't already know it was Mills it could be any track in the game!

    Yes. you are right.
    But maybe all modders wait for changes in displaying data format. To be honest it the place where things should be changed. Track name concatenated with Event Name should be shown in dedic as well as on server list in game

    Very nice track ! No low fps as some other tracks... The new fast aiw path works fine, it's a pleasure to race against bots :)
    Thank you !
    I keep the 2 releases because of vmods. I'll unsintall all, mods and V1.90 when those vmods will be updated. it's not an easy way to manage track update...

    Mine show to be connected to 5 vmods.. count 'em, FIVE. So, easiest thing and worst thing is to give up on vMods. and pick thru "All Cars and Tracks" series, and stay off of servers. Just imagine, another 5 track releases with updates here and there, and you too may give up on vMods and servers.

    just saying

    If you want that vmod to utilize the new track, yes, it would still require a new vmod.
    At the moment it's a moot point though since the track update option seems to be bugged.

    tried it for a few hours, very nice for first beta release

    just a few points ( im sure they are already covered)

    a slight to much satuation
    track surface needs a tad more life ( cant feel anything on the filled tarmac areas (hole infill detail)
    no slight cambers anywhere

    maybe its a completly flat track in real life but im guessing there would be a bit more charactor in the surface

    again thanks for this nice track, cant wait for future updates
     
  18. Thanks a lot VLM! Your tracks are simply the best! Mid-Ohio is so addictive! ;)

    @Adrianstealth: If you are talking about the Sebring track, it really is flat in real life, it is in Florida, USA, built on an airport's grounds. It used to use one of the active runways as the back straight, but they moved the track off of that area.

    gearj.

    yes -sebring i see wow that flat, ok i understand, that makes sense -thanks for the info

    if poss a bit of charactor added to the track repairs would be nice then (small bumps under tires etc)

    p,s the track is still a top piece of work im just trying to add constructive points etc
