As my first attempt at a complete track build I decided to pick a little UK track of which I could easily obtain photographs/visit etc to try and build a really complete track. I've never used 3Ds Max previously so this whole process so far has been a learning curve from the start. Here are some early screens in max, i've managed to get a basic point cloud for the area which has allowed me to build the track so far with the correct gradients. I've already scrapped and started again the track surface 3 or 4 times but just down to learning the process and refining it each time. All the objects are being built as separate 3d models for the time being such as buildings / marshals posts / curbing etc again to learn faster about modelling of which should help the overall effect. I will be sure to keep this thread updated with news and information about the build and hopefully try and share any useful information that I learn as I go along to encourage others to also try building. fonte AC forum
