Before I started downloading mods, 99% of my time with Assetto Corsa was spent in Nordschleife Tourist. When I found out the tracks by Fat-Alfie, now they have become my favorite. Deutschlandring is amazing, so beautiful with so many different kind of bends, fast and slow sections and with great performance. Same can be said about Feldbergring, which is also absolutelly awesome. Fonteny is impressive too, especially considering it's incredibly long, with the only problem of the lack of collision of many objetcs outside the track, such as trees. Do you know if this modder is currently working on new tracks inspired in old circuits or based on open roads?
Is Fat-Alfie working on new tracks?
- Thread starter Elaphe
- Start date
It's a sad reflection on me that I often picture this when Battenbergring is mentioned.

Oh dear!!! This is looking so stunning!I bite on my lips not to ask the popular question now. I just intended to generate a few wet pants in the community when asking for some shots. Now I bet it was a success.

Something to look forward to in these challenging times.
Wow, that's come on loads, scenery's looking gorgeous as ever. The big series of 'mill' like buildings, is that a sawmill or something else?
Job done.

Looks really stunning.
I especially like the "small details" at the periphery like the bicicles at the fence.
And no, they won´t be stolen, these were different times where someone could leave his bicicle at the side of the road unattended
Please go on, @Fat-Alfie , I really want to drive your newest masterpiece.

Thank you very much Fat-Alfie for your great Work...!!
Your Track´s are by far the best looking in VR, and absolute great FFB from the Roadsurface.
Can´t wait to drive on your Battenbergring
Can you tell us something about the release date?

Thanks you; I am glad that you enjoy them
I do spend a lot of time on the road surface, I must admit. As my tracks are historical there is rarely accurate terrain data available for them (sometimes the roads just don't exist anymore), so where other great modders pride themselves on the accuracy of their tracks (when they use modern LiDAR), I try to make up for my lack of accuracy with feel and environment.
I think that if one is recreating a modern / existing circuit then accuracy has to be key, otherwise what is the point? But when trying to recreate the atmosphere of a track that was used 50 or 60 years ago, and no longer exists, atmosphere and feel must take precedence.
As for Battenbergring, I was on schedule to get it finished by Christmas, but unfortunately I became distracted by the old Mugello road circuit, and again, this week, by my Bremgarten circuit. I just have to follow my interest - these tracks take so many hours to make, it's really hard to put the effort in when your heart isn't in it.
I think maybe another week or two on Bremgarten and then I'll feel more like completing Battenbergring. Sorry for the delay, though

Sended you "beermoney" for your great work ;-)
yes, we really have great Tracks here. But also Fonteny is like the street that i drive, to visit my Friend.Greetings ManicManzen
Is this the GrassFX from csp or is this part of the track?
It looks so lush, I wanna throw myself in the grass and have a nap
That's hand-made, old-school 3D grass. I still think it's the best way to get the look I am after (so long as you have the time).
And thanks for the very kind gift, @ManicManzen !
