Tracks Auto24ring, Estonia v2.0

[Mascot]

I'm sorry to hear that the track doesn't work for you, but unfortunately I have no solution to offer at the moment. It's a fairly simple and basic track system, so I don't know where could the error be. For most of the people, it seems to work okay.

I've not tested the update myself yet, but maybe people with errors are overwriting the files instead of doing a clean installation? This has caused me problems in the past with track updates (eg phantom cones in the road, that sort of thing).

It doesn't work here either ; the loading screen is interrupted and Content Manager then displays the following error message :

"Game crashed

Some texture's format or size might be wrong."

@mcarno I just tried the update using the 'clean installation' method in Content Manager and it loads and plays fine on my system (i5 6600k/980Ti). The z-fighting on the main start/finish gantry has thankfully gone but there's horrendous flickering on all of the Pirelli P-Zero hoardings at the exit of the first corner - these actually look like they're flashing as you approach them. I can't remember if these were like this in the previous version but they need the same attention that the gantry received please.

Nice layout, track looks good although the moire on the armaco barriers is brutal!

 

[mcarno]

mcarno updated Auto24ring, Estonia with a new update entry:

Fixed one banner flicker, used official Armco barrier profile

Fixed one banner flicker, seen from start-finish straigh till first corner. Replaced metal barriers profile from generic zig-zag to official Armco barrier profile (though the change is visually almost not noticeable, it's one step closer to perfect virtual replica of track.

I have fixed it and uploaded quick minor version 1.1.1
And it's good to hear it works all good for you :)

hi, what is that ray.opt 30mb file on the data folder?

I actually don't know that myself. When I started building the track I copied data folder files from one of the original tracks and then started modifying them to my needs, but ignored files I didn't know.
If anybody knows more about this, would be nice to know about it.

Google finds this https://pypi.org/project/rayopt/
anyway you can probably just delete it for the release version, it just bloats the archive a little (like with all those skins where people leave the psd files in the folder)

Great, thanks - I'll try it later and report any issues. I forgot to mention earlier that I was using a Rift.

Same problem since first version and still in 1.1.1.

Crashes while loading with AC's default launcher too.

One more new version and it don't work too

 

[Tom Blackett]

Works great here! Thanks for the track!

One more new version and it don't work too

If it doesn't work please inform if you are using original launcher or CM (not just you but anyone) because some times mods work on content manager and not on original launcher and viceversa.

Also what mode are you trying, practice, race, etc

Just "it's not working" won't help much the modder

I can add to my feedback that it happens in every mode/session.

from the logs:
ERROR: D3DX11CreateShaderResourceViewFromMemory failed

It crashed in all modes in AC and CM launcers.

To the guys with the non working track:
Did you remove the old version before updating, or just let it overwrite ?

Yes, I removed old versions.

 

[Mascot]

Works fine for me (i5 6600k, 980Ti, 16GB RAM, Rift, Content Manager, Scotch on the rocks) and the last update sorted out the flickering P-Zero billboards. Thanks @mcarno, hope you find the source of the issue that a few others seem to have.

It was the first time I tried to install the track ; no previous versions.

Edit : and it's the only track I have with this problem (I've got quite a number of mod tracks now).
