@Ricardo Lampert: Brazil update

Hi Ricardo,
The Brazil update looks fanstastic. But now that we are hotlapping here, I have noticed problems in mine which are not there when I use my orginal game. This affects only Brazil - your update:

When I turn left out of the pits area, the kerbs are so bumpy they can overturn the car. Also on the pit road to the track, the graphics in cockpit get jumpy. It stops when I get to the track. Then at turn 5 (Decido do lago) there is a white sheet - a gap in the graphics on the upper left to centre of the screen.

Could these be due to your update or is it something else that causes them? In the meantime, I will continue hotlapping with the old version, since I seem to be getting slightly better times- same setup, but everthing seems smoother- weird, Huh?

Ok, Ricardo. Here is a screenshot of the T5 graphic glitch (it is grey and not white )
As regards the pitlane exit problem, this cannot be seen on a screen shot. The every turn of the wheel causes the graphics to become nervous. Also if you hit the inside kerb as you turn into the exit lane the car "takes off". This does not happen in the out-of-box track

Do you still want me to send you this pic as e-mail attachment?

i've got this update but my kurbs are different colours :S

You have not got the very latest update Priddo. It is quite recent and it si beautiful- Ricardo made it with love and care. I love this track.

Ricardo: I have now discovered that the graphic glitch above is also with the original track. But it is very strange. When started hotlapping with the original track, I had no bug. Then after several laps I notices a small tear- almost unnoticable. Then with every lap it got bigger and bigger until it reached the same size as in your update. What could cause this?

LarryM, turn off the bump-mapping and see if the problem is gone.

Yep, that did it. Bump mapping off: problem gone
Bumb mapping on: problem is back. I wonder if it can be fixed.

I have the same problem when I look rite before I reach the first turn at Canada. Also, the same problem sometimes near the start finish line at Magny-Cours
