50 tracks for grand prix 4

hallo
i hope you understand my not good english.
for grand prix 4 give 50 tracks. the original 17 tracks from melburne to suzuka.and 30 new tracks from taruma,istambul,uqbar,adelaide .........,give it a good cc-line programmer he programm a computer car line you can drive to the backward side of a track.i hope you understand this.turn your car wenn you drive on a track 180` and drive this way and you have a feeling you have a new track and you must not programm new track.
give it programmer he programming the computercars drive in
this way then we have 50 new tracks for grand prix 4.

okay I have to read this again

He means that when you turn your car around and drive the wrong way you will have a new track.

and that a programmer could set it so the cc cars would also go the wrong way.

It's sounds simple in theory, but in practise you must rebuild the whole dat file again.

I'm a total dick. How many people can say that?

I think he means just make a mirrored track and have it selectable as a different track, not something during the race

He means to say that we can have
17 original tracks ( or 17 reverse mirrored tracks )
17 mirrored tracks
17 reversed tracks
-------------------
= 51 tracks

And create a cc line for each configuration so that we have 51 new tracks without actually designing any new tracks.

and 30 new tracks from taruma,istambul,uqbar,adelaide

so where do these come in... im confused. It sounded to me like he wants someone to build 50 new tracks for him.

I think that he means that there are already 17 default tracks + 17 tracks if you mirror those + the new 30 ones = 54

17 originals plus about 30 new tracks. we have about 50 tracks now.
drive them backwards and we have 50 more.
it could be possible to easily flip the dat but i've no idea about that. at the moment you'll have to rebuild the dat, but thats not such a huge job - aleast for one track
there might be some other problems with the 3d part as the lod distances etc might need checking

I'd love to have some real life tracks backwards, it's always fun to drive them backwards on the game, and it would be even better to race them backwards

Eau Rouge is tough driving backwards.

I asked Lo2k about this a looooong time ago, and yes, the .dats would have to be rebuilt. But that's pretty much it. Only other thing that would need doing is some texture re-assignment in the pits, and the start light gantry would have to be rotated.

I doubt a tool to remake .dats backwards would be added to 3d editor though...

This is the funniets post of all time.....

i still don't get where istanbul, adelaide and all those new track are comming from?

from the people who make them :P

Well hm, adelaide is well, converted, albeit the V8 Supercar version.

And so is Istanbul if you care to check jpmfw's wip thread :P

in theory, you could use a software hack for your monitor/display adapter, to mirror your screen, then, invert your steering wheel using another hack, and bang, mirrored tracks,

would add a slight challenge, Mario kart on mirror mode always catches a few people out!
