Point is the original mod by Jim Pearson had some very specific points that had to be met for any prospective conversions.
1 may be a lod problem, as it requires vr to look sideways, I can't find it unless you tell me the position of the track in fraction (using ai_helper app) or object name (using object inspector with dev tools enabled) so far with only a screenshot there's no way to know if RF2 and original gpl track take looking sideways into consideration
Yes, all tracks have bugs that need attention. But this is what you get if you 'BATCH CONVERT' tracks in one hour and go about insulting people like me in private message that my 'modding skills suck'.
And still you brag about your incredible 3DS MAX skills in p.m. and call other other people incompetent...
I only turned my head sideways to show them more clearly, all of the gaps and holes and floating buildings and missing landscape etc are all visible from cockpit view (and would be worse in chase cam with its wider FOV). It would take me forever to walk the track and give coordinates for everything that needs addressing. If you drive the track slowly in chase cam you should see quite clearly where the issues are. It's a big track so a big exercise, but quite necessary to get the track up to a modern level of acceptability. The source material is very dated but at the moment it's the technical aspects that let it down, not the visual aesthetics.
Yeah, it's odd -- most cars are OK for me, including Nicecuppatea's and Legion's cars, Fourty-Too!'s Delages, and HSS's Maserati 8CM:
Usually what happens when the windscreen is a shader other than ksWindscreen (usually they use perpixelreflection which is meant for the exterior glass)I wonder if someone might be able to shed light on something that's always bothered me. On some cars, generally those with separate windscreens as opposed to modern integrated windshields, the windscreen glass material reduces the darkness of the shadows under competitors' cars (or eliminates the shadows completely). This happens regardless of lighting conditions. For example, here's what normal car shadows look like:
But here's what I see through the windscreen:
I'd like the shadows to remain dark. I've fixed it on a couple cars by going into the CM showroom and messing with the values for the glass material, changing the alpha mode from "alpha blending" to "alpha testing" and/or the blend mode from "normal" to "read only." While I have no idea what I'm doing here, this worked for SimDream's Maserati 6CM (for instance), but not for HSS's Alfa Romeo P2.
Does anyone have any idea why this happens and/or how to fix it?
Checked the GP 1937, was OK for me, used the standard version. Which PP filter do you use?
Indeed the other shader setting but did work too.
Ah, I think you've probably hit on it -- thanks for this. No experience with ksEditor, but I'll find a tutorial and try changing the shader on each affected car.
Interesting. I'm using a heavily modified version of Gabimaix's 4PP filter. But it could also be that this is an issue that a more recent CSP has addressed (I'm still on 1.80 preview 1). Anyway, I appreciate your checking.
Hugh effort on the skins, great work! I tried your updated nissan r32 gtr from a few pages back, on Ruapuna as an AI competitor. It kept hitting the curbs and flipping over. No cars completed a lap 🤣. However, there is a gtr from a JTCC set that works ok but still does hit the curbs a bit much compared to other cars.
Yes you´re right, my answer to your question was not exactly suitable.I'm not saying there's something wrong with anything...
Just canvasing opinion here..
While trying to figure out how to get the flags to stick to the pole on Donington Park (still no luck), I did actually manage to have some kind of success in making them better. While they still look silly in high winds, the attached flag file replacement has much better lighting on the flags themselves. My original version was dark on one side and lighter on the other. These are more consistent from front to back. I also updated the original track link so if you ever need to reinstall the track, you don't have to come back here to get the new flags.
please don't put spaces in the folder name, it creates problems online
