Hi Ruboy

Thanks for news, mate...

It´s nice to see your huge effort on projects of your own and the same attitude for the other guy´s too. I thank you for all this stuff you´ve made so far.

Great news you´re about to work at Jim´s Oulton. Great track!


About that (Shangai) issue, just tell me and I´ll mail fixed version.


Cheers!

I you already have it finished than you can send it to me now.
I won't start next week (because of Imola hi-res update and helping with two other tracks) but it would be good to have it on my PC.
I'll record the race tomorrow so I'll have excellent video material - as it did for Istanbul

sounds like you'll be busy martin....good to hear the trd tracks will get the fixes done by you also...the oulton park track was in the work list as we discussed a while ago.....

i had started a bit on the surfers paradise dat file , but i found the s/f line bug that caused the ai cars to swerve towards the barriers was related to the way i rotated the first few sectors...i'm afraid at that stage i was learning as i built & the trd tracks were a lot a work......worth the effort..
but the bugs need fixing...the graphical sides look nice enough....

Nice Martin,

good luck for the future projects

If help is needed you know where to ask

My Grand Prix 4 Files
I'm a total dick. How many people can say that?

It's a nice list of projects Ruboy, I wish you the best of luck and if there ever is anything I might help I'd be glad to. But I don't think you'll be needing my help anyway

By the way, Jesus of Suburbia's been your Song of the Day for a very long time now no problem, I like it too


My unfinished tracks: [www.grandprixgames.org]
Send bug reports and track editing questions to f1virtualblog@gmail.com

@Jimbob:
Maybe you can send this new .dat file (surfers paradise) with the fixed s/f line bug to me so that I don't need to do it later.
Indeed, in general only the .dat of the trd tracks has to be fixed. The graphics are very nice.

@Ruben:
Wow, that's a nice track I'll be glad to do it

@Prblanco:
Thanks, mate
Hehe, I know about the song. I was to lazy to change it after a few days. I'll have a new one soon

Here two WIP shots of the upcoming Imola 2006 hi-res update:





Thanks to Lee for the shots.

Cheers

X (@ed24f1)

looks very good!!!!

Wow! judging by the screens, this is going to be an awesome update! Keep it up, Ruboy!

Forgett the first WIP screenshots of Imola - much has changed since then
New textures and colours and some fixed problems.

But the most important changes affect the new Variante Alta.

I worked on the physics and graphics. I smoothed it (the left runoff area), changed the kerbs and the whole grahics in accordance with this year's GP.
Btw, I there are also two types of tarmac now - a lighter normal one a darker one for new sections


Here we go - thnaks Paolo for screenies






Thant's for now - expect new one soon

Martin

WOW
