Tracks Okayama [W.I.P] scratch made

[Ryno917]

I won't have a chance to try the track myself for another month and a half at least, but it's downloaded and awaiting installation. Looks spectacular, absolutely fantastic work!

Thanks for this

Can someone please host with these Super GT cars (personally I hate that slow Mazda, it reminds me too much on iRacing).

Super GT 4 cars mod from, with legendary Supra and NSX can be found HERE.

 

[Andreas Knöpke]

Not a fan of ugly cockpits.

Was gonna host the RSS2 later once I'm home.

 

[Leonardo Ratafiá]

Fórmula 3 rsr, I'll host one later

Fórmula 3 rsr, I'll host one later

Fine, I`ll be at home in 2 hours, will try to join you guys.

 

[Andreas Knöpke]

I've got an RSS2 server open if anybody is interested.

Name: Mods FTW

Outsanding work Mitja, absolutely love the track! From what I remember from my time at iRacing, the layout is absolutely spot on, but way better looking

 

[Keith Dixon]

Superb release Mitja, loving the track, well done

it appears as if the racing line skid marks are being drawn above both the 'body shadow' and the dynamic one where the 'baked' one almost disappears completely

makes the car look like it's driving through some ground fog

dunno if it is related to the issue discussed a few pages back or not

apart from that ... really amazing work m8

 

[BenCollins]

Fantastic track, really love it. Great work.

It would be cool to race online with gt300 cars ! There is a lot of gt300 skins on racedepartment !

I did a bit of AI tweaking using @Esotic's AI Line Helper app.

The AI lines themselves were very good and very fast, Mitja did a great job there, but the limits and ai_hints.ini were not good. I remade the limits for both the GP and Piper layout, along with accompanying ai_hints.ini. Now AI happily races at 100% strength and 100% aggression on both layouts without much trouble.

While I was at it, I also remade pit lanes for both layouts, making them more in line with the fast lane, and most importantly, fixing the pit lane on Piper layout that was (mistakenly?) just copied from GP.

This area used to be particularly hairy and prone to crashes, managed to bring it in order:

Nice and smooth limits, no swerving on the straight any more:

A bit of funneling going on to prevent stupid overtake attempts:

Heard murmurs of a kart track, had to go searching... I do enjoy being able to drive under the track to get there.

Couldn't quite work out the layout though, could be fun if it were marked out more.

Would be really cool if the surrounding service roads, tunnel, parking lots and villa area could be turned into a sort of off-track racing circuit for some good rally cross style fun.

I also replaced the lanes with blank ones for drift layout.

do these improvements affect the track cameras ? thanks

 

[Topuz]

I know nothing about how track cameras work or what they depend on. The actual racing line remained the same, I just edited the limits. From a bit of testing I did, all seemed fine. Drift may be screwed since I replaced it with blanks, but I didn't check. In that case, just copy over the files from Piper.

Edit: Yes, the drift was broken, others are fine. I updated the link above, should be good now for future downloads.

 

[schnipp]

The track cameras follow the fast_lane.ai spline to switch from one camera to the next.

As long as the spline is (roughly) the same in length there should only be minor differences.

on the drift layout after the piper corner there's this black texture
