Tracks Road America (3 seasons) 1.06

[Gringo]

Hi, Thanks again for the bug reports.

I have not been able to reproduce the bug on my system, however we have seen this before and knew where to look.

This small patch tested fine on my system and I hope this will solve the issue. Find the link to a zip file with a (hopefully) fixed GMT object. Copy the GMT to the track folder.

..\GameData\Locations\Road_AmericaCART\track19.gmt

https://mega.nz/#!MdVGCbqR!4hoQo2YSR0XBBxCvbvacGvyBqlOCLN7unMx8Iq0Kbho

Let me know if the fix works or not (a track update will come later)

Cheers

EDIT : It looks like the problem is not in the track so there is no need for this patch.

EDIT AGAIN : Make sure to delete this GMT file if you tried it.

Great conversion of a great track, thanks very much as usual to Patrick, Gringo et al.

I notice that the start lights on all 3 versions of the track are not synchronised with the actual start. If I drop the clutch when the lights go green I'll get a false start drive through. I have to wait until I hear the final start beep before actually starting.

When so much is patched and fixed as with Patrick Tracks he should think about trusted Betatesters.

if you dont like the tracks or the way I release them, simple, dont dl or use them.

Thanks Patrick, great track
Just small bug: there's grass blade on tarmac on the outside of T12

got it

I just hit the same thing under the Speedville sign with the Camaro on the Spring version.

Thank you so much for this track though!

I think it is a last change consequence of adding collision to the bridge. SuperV8 is taller than the CARt for instance, and the 3D object is designed in a way the car hit it when collision on. Will be removed with new cams. I have done a collision wall instead.

thank you Patrick (whole team) .. great as usual .. one think I noticed when I spun right next to it (after Turn 2). No biggie but if you are planning 1.01 you might take a look at it.

fixed

 

[Patrick Giranthon]

I think all is fixed now, will wait for the cams to do the V1.01

Ok, hope its another patch like Gringos post. Second 10min race i hit the same point like my last pic. (all Road A. hat files deleted)

ok, then if you run offline just edit the .scn of the track , with notepad or notepad ++ :

Find this entry with the search option :

Instance=ra_bridge03_e3_loda
{
MeshFile=ra_bridge03_e3_loda.gmt CollTarget=true HATTarget=False ShadowCaster=(Dynamic,Solid,128,128) LODIn=(0.0) LODOut=(700.0)
}

Instance=ra_bridge03_e3_loda
{
MeshFile=ra_bridge03_e3_loda.gmt CollTarget=False HATTarget=False ShadowCaster=(Dynamic,Solid,128,128) LODIn=(0.0) LODOut=(700.0)
}

Do this on the layout you use , or do it on the 3 versions if you prefer

(Just to precise, I dont Have this bug on my version, only If I run The track reversed and with reversed gear, but There are good chance what I Posted fix your issue, let me know)

Thank you for this update.

I wish Formula One raced here, but I understand the limitations. Its like an American version of Spa.

Last 2 races was good, seems to work. Thx.

No need to point these things out. All of the track imperfections are realized by the team... that's why Patrick spent a few weeks to study the current track and update the old track as much as reasonably possible (and then a bit more).

The tracks are "conversions" with the added enhancements of the new AMS graphics and physics features. In most cases its not possible to make big mesh changes without breaking stuff like shaders, or mapping. It can be done but what you want is best done when making the track from scratch (or if you had the original max file perhaps). Thanks for your understanding.

PS... Except for T2 and T14 the fastest way around is not on the curbs. imo

Awesome track, thanks so much. I also got the bug under the bridge with autumn track and with super trucks. Made a mess of the truck lol. Will wait for it to be patched

Yuo can try this if you run offline. Cams should come soon.

can I also change this on my server to run online Patrick? and if I can will this cause a mismatch for everyone else?

 

[Patrick Giranthon]

online, you will have to wait a bit. But works well with open wheelers

 

[Tony]

we have a multiclass race on this weekend, boxers and metalmoro, should we postpone it or will it be fixed by then?

 

[Patrick Giranthon]

should be fixed quickly yes.

You can also throw a special version to your teamates. If did not update in few daysn I will send you a version.

The scn fix does not cause mismatches on a server.
