Oh boy, I have been waiting so long for this, bet not alone. Brings back memories of driving the Jadranska Magistrala in Croatia, except in the game I can push a Corvette instead of my diesel wagon. I feel that the "restart session" button is going to get hot for a while. It is hard to compare 0.95 to 0.824 (previous version), basically everything has been improved. Most impressive for me is the road itself - much more natural to drive and better looking. You can't get enough of it. Models, textures, objects - all top quality. The place as a whole is very well recreated. It is simply a must have.

Really glad your wait was worth it mate :)
And that you like all the improvements.. still room for plenty more :)
Keep having a blast, hope you learn the corners quickly.. to get the maximum out of them :)
I'd recommend something like the C7R while re-learning the corners that have changed (most of them)
Thanks for the cool review.

I haven't really tried this in a while but wow, it's come a long way! It really feels like driving down the Pacific Coast Highway. (My 8 year old daughter even said, "Is that where we went camping?!" because it looked so much like the Oregon coast.)

Great work!

Thanks that's really cool to know Robert...
The Oregon coast has beautiful scenery.
Have some good trips along here in whatever cars you're using :)

I was waiting for this track to be a little more updated.
So you also added the Californian earthquakes in the map.

First drive, less than a year later XD
My loss really, the road is awesome! Reminds me of nice coastal roads in Spain and south of France, thanks for the experience! I really look forward to the finished version. But already this is such a pleasure to drive
Phoenix77

At least you've driven the old road now, so you can see the difference with the new road ;)
It's cool that it reminds you of some nice coastal roads.
Your Caterhams love it along the new road...
It's a very slightly bumpy ride... but that adds to the sense of speed (even though it tops out at around 120mph)
Thanks a lot for your review mate (and... within a year) :)

Great track, combines well with the TNFS mod. It reminds a lot of Coastal stage 2/3 in that game, which was probably inspired by big sur. Everything comes around it seems.

As the modder wrote, it still needs more trackside objects, so the corners get more visual personality and can be easier identfied. When that's done, it's probably in the top 10 or ever top 5 mod tracks for Assetto and a must have for everyone.

Thanks mate :)

Yeah it has been said that it feels like a Need For Speed track... Which is cool. I was holding back on trackside objects as I learn how to keep things running well (this is my 1st track after all) but yeah... fair point it does need more recognisable corners, even though the real road is quite "samey" along quite alot of this stretch of coastline.

Since 0.824 I've been overhauling the entire track, lining the road up to a 1 billion pixel satellite image for increased accuracy.
adding track edge border transitions... optimised the terrain so it uses 1/4 the polys. Which means I won't be holding back when the trees, telegraph poles etc go in :)

Thanks for the concise review, much appreciated :)

Cheers for the rating mate... It's better than a Matt Farah One Take, as you can cross the double yellows :)

This is my favorite thing to thrash road cars. Especially the Porsches! Amazing isn't enough to describe your job.
Phoenix77
Phoenix77
Thanks a lot :) That's great to know Carlitox... Yeah the Porsches love it along here... It's nice to cruise along here... But I think it's even better to do a 9 minute run in a GT3 RS.

Cheers for commenting :)

What`s the difference between the standard and cruise versions?
Phoenix77
Phoenix77
Thanks for the stars Gustavo :)
The differences with the Cruise layouts are..
1) The AI stays in the right hand lane... and they overtake on the left
2) The AI is "Cruising" at 80% of their top speed...
(Independent of the AI slider)
Let some AI Supercars loose, give them a minute or two headstart and chase them down. It will take them a Kilometre or two for them to get filtered into single file anyway :)

Probably not a good thing to admit too, but I didnt like the look this track at first. I recently looked at LA Canyon and saw a lot of potential. Coming back, the the latest version (of this) has vastly improved. I have been converted (for all that anyone really cares). Goes to show how much I know. Well done, its a great track.
Phoenix77
Phoenix77
That's totally fair enough mate, it would be a boring world if everyone liked the same things :) I'm currently "tweaking" the flow of Pacific to increase the experience, as I've learnt a few things with L.A. Canyons...
Add to this better terrain shaders/textures... and some serious optimising... and this version is half the version v1.0 will be ;)

Glad you're enjoying it mate, and glad you've been converted :D
Keep an eye on this one... There's plenty more to come.

Thanks for the cool review :)

Very nice work! Look forward to whenever you have updates. Donated a pint for your efforts. Keep up the good work and hope to see another track from you.

Really glad you like it, and cheers for the pint mate :)
I've been looking into how a few things work... and there will be a fairly large update coming in the hopefully near future.
I hope you have plenty of fun driving in California :)
Thanks again!

Amazing work man ! The guardrails are awesome. the bushs increase the feel of speed and much increased detail with textures. I cant stop playing this track has a real cali vibe to it without the traffic. Thanks dude
Phoenix77
Phoenix77
Cheers mate. Really glad you're liking the added items... There will be continuous improvements as and when I learn more, mainly texture work... There is a location or two to go in yet.
Although I can't do that until some optimisation work happens first. Thanks for your continued reviews mate, Much appreciated :)

Fantastic job! This is one of my favorite tracks to just relax and test out cars in the rift. I had some friends try the rift for the first time recently too and they all kept wanting to go back to play this track specifically. I appreciate the hard work! Keep it up!
Phoenix77
Phoenix77
Thanks mate. Sounds like you and your friends are having fun down here... That's really great to hear... It's a good track to relax on... Maybe have a competition with your friends to see who can make it in the fastest time, as it's also fun when you're on the limit ;) and pretty challenging. Thanks for the review mate :)
