Already started working on the update with brighter track ambient light.
Also, I will make an alternative road mesh with less bumps, so you can use it if you find the original one too bumpy.
This AC track is based on early 00s Usce circuit which had very rough, uneven asphalt,
nowadays it has a completely new asphalt layer, and it is quite dark.

Hi Lemax, is the Yugo still being worked on?

Leonardo Ratafiá · Mar 16, 2019

if you race faster race cars they crash on the 3rd corner, it would need some ai hints

Lemax · Mar 16, 2019

Yes (and No), the Yugo project started as a mod for rF1, and the main goal was, beside physics, to make it with low number of polygons as much as possible. But, for todays standards, it is just too low-poly to look good in modern game engines.
I have rebuilt the interior, now have to make new exterior...with rounder boxy design

I will check it

By "fast race cars" I mean 911 gt3 cup, for example. maybe it's a bit bumpy for the AI. Also on the esses after the 3rd corner sometimes they crash. I did a new boundaries file set but still, it should be ai hints related imo

I noticed that the reflection on the large office building is not correct. It looks like the trees and surroundings are moving on it. Is there someway for you to change the settings or remove the reflection. I find it distracting and unrealistic.

Lemax · Mar 17, 2019

I agree with you, i have used some (copy-paste) generic AC material settings for glass windows,
but it doesn't look good if entire building is covered up with glass.

I will blur those reflections or find a better solution

Took me some 30 km's worth of laps to realize I'd been driving the wrong way. Somehow I just assumed it's running clockwise and never gave a second thought to it. Sure, the pit entry/exit seemed to make a strange loop, but figured what do I know about Serbian racetracks. Also solved the mystery of nonworking lap timing.

That's one of the bad things about using CM, it disables the Wrong way sign by default, which is good most of the times but for some some tracks you are clueless

Indeed. Although I've had it disabled for years. Disabled as in I just replaced the sign with an empty png. I still got thrown back to pits for driving the wrong way.

But the track is actually quite nice in reverse. A different type of flow to it

Can you fix the wrong way problem when driving into the pits? I want to race this track in our vintage community when it gets fixed. Love all your tracks!
