Todd, this track looks fantastic! the road texture and detals, the foliage and the hills... beautiful stuff. This is the way to go with newer tracks,
make them photorealistic.
I'd prefer you first fix the glitches because they break the immersion.
Another thing is the trees. Overall they look OK, especially because they are dark, but they show they are 2D sprites, and some look like bilboards, like most of AC's trees. Isn't there a way to make the trees more realistic? I gues 3D trees, like ACC has, eat a lot of FPS. The
best looking trees in AC I've seen are from Deem's winter bare trees
mod/skin, they look the most realistic and add a lot of immersion.
Thanks for sharing your work with us!
Cheers.
