Track making ?

[Guest Zigma]

Hi

Real greate Sim....

I try to make a track, but how big is a "unit" in nK ?

I use 3DStudioMax 4.2

[Guest outrunner]

Hi Zigma,

simple: 1 MAX Unit = 1 Meter in nK. Don't matter about specific unit in 3D MAX: use General Units and you're right.

Cheers,

OutRunner

I am really longing for an OVAL track

This type of track, I think, would be a great track to learn to drive on.

Dam greeeaaaat game though......................

karl: i know there are some problems on ovals, try to contact si3v, i think he's doing the rockingham full oval track...

I did try to make an oval....but i noticed very quickly that the cars slide sideways if you tilt the road too much...it's actually quite weird effect. If you put the start box into an tilted curve, you will find the car from the kerbs before the green light is on

Also tried to make these small bumps into the road, but the car usually ends up upside down...still working on the bump scales to get something out from the bumps

I gave up the oval and I'm now making track based on the local streets near where i live.

Ecio,

Thx, but I am a patient man, I will await til a good Oval track appears, in the mean time I shall continually race on the many excellent tracks available so far.

sorry for late reply

the fact you're talkin about is quite strange because rockingham have no problems with a "tilted" start .... maybe it works because it's not so "tilted"

[Guest T. Diesel]

LOL...might be, my "oval" (more like a full circle "deathring" ) track was quite a lot tilted ...heh... it was only half serious test tho (my first track) , aim was to start making the street track and just test track making with the oval...but never finished it from the obvious reasons.

Maybe I'll get back to the oval, when i get the street track finished, (some time during the next millennia)
