GP4 Track Editing - new new thread

Yes Rot, I've find very easy to draw a track layout

Have you checked the track flags (pit lane start, pit land ends, etc etc)?

Yes! Are all OK! Can I ask you to see my .DAT file?Can I send it via email?

Well.. I'm not a specialist or something :P But you could put it somewhere like rapidshare or megaupload

Please take a look at [rapidshare.com]
I'm very impatient to know what do you think about it!

- Your final track sector isn't overlaying into the first track sector, I think this is what is causing the crash. Look at how the original GP4 tracks are done to see what I mean.

- The pitlane is waaaaaaay too sudden off the track, one of the ends of the pitlane isn't even layed fully into the track. This could also be causing the crash.

- Don't forget matching the heights of these things, the places where the track connects itself, and where the pitlane connects the track. In my first tracks I always did these parts completely flat just to avoid these headaches.

Now more of a personal opinion, there is definitely some very interesting parts in the layout of your track, but it could maybe use a longer straight here and there, also you could pay a little more attention to how the kerbs are done.

Thanks,now tracks works. Now I've some trouble with graphics (which texture I've to select?) and a big problem:when I pause the game PC crashes. Are you so patient to helps me again?

I don't really know what could be causing the pause problem.. maybe lack of cc-line?

Graphics, well, that can take a lot of time and research! You can search in the original track textures for some tarmac, line, grass, bank and kerb textures, and start from there.

My first track.

Thank you.The bit after Turn 1 is a bit like Eau Rouge, and the hairpin turn leading into the long right hander after wards, is kind of like a corkscrew.

sounds good, good luck with the next parts of your track!

My tracks crashes (with my PC) when I pause the game to see a replay. I've set 6 cameras (for the moment)...someone could give me some explanations? Another thing:how I have to show an image in my messages?

can anyone help me with this?
my first track, how comes im getting all the black colours and how do i change them?
cheers

Looks like you used a black texture for the entire track, try creating track from .dat with different textures.

tryed and i still get this problem, it also shows black on if i on the orginal .dat's
cheers

the .dat is not the problem, open the .gp4 and check if you assigned a black texture to the banks
btw. wtf is going on with this forum? for some reason left and right have changed their places?
has anyone the same problem?
ß

it's because of the new arabic sponsor :P
