RELEASED-wip Snaefell Mountain Course

[Les Neilson]

Well, they said it couldn't be done, or even if it could, it would be undriveable. But apart from a bit of slight juddering at the start, I don't think there's much of a problem. Better drivers than me might notice something not quite right... There's still a huge amount of work to do on this, and it's probably pretty unrecogniseable in a lot of places. It's built in Race Track Builder, which means I'm dependent on Google Maps data for the elevations, which are only so-so. But because it's so big, it kind of evens it out a bit.

A generous person has tried to make an ai file for my track, but it's not working. The cars start okay, then before even crossing the start line they dive off the track and disappear. Where can I find out more about ai lines?

I should also say I tried to record an ai line myself following your instructions, but the recording function kept crashing...

You need to check the "limits" of your driveable surface. Check how the ROAD mesh is separated from the scenery (maybe GRASS or DIRT surface). If they are not separated, the AI will be totally confused.

PS: Had no time to try this track yet ! :/ (however vacation next week so maybe).

i tried your course. didn't realise it was the isle of man. . its amazing you did so much work on such a thing tbh. the juddering car is because the track is breaching the size limits possible in AC for car physics. I think with a good texture person it could be not bad at all but it will never reach AC standard because itll takes years to do it like that. but for what rtb is capable of that's some good work.

I've released a new version here:

There are a few custom buildings, various tweaks and extra detail here and there, but still a lot to do...
