Welsh Highlands

[aljowen]

no there are aren't many flat areas though there are some small ones, its wales remember lol

Yes i mean are there any tracks that arnt hill climbing, rock crawling or for proper off roaders. As in are there any off road tracks that do go up and down hills but arnt bumpy like a forest rally stage.

Edit: also are you going to do a snowy version and a rainy one (bearing in mind this is wales your talking about)

[PrT Audiman]

Looking great. Would definitely benefit from some Alpha-Splatting. Although you would need some time to learn it. Maybe keep it in mind for a future terrain.

yes i will look it up for this terrain, im not planning to work fast on it, i have been very slow on this project look at the date it started lol, anyway thankyou for the comments everyone and i will be attempting alpha splatting

i think, that, rain and snow wrecks the realism if you like, of the game, i mean, rain coming straight through the car and no sound? its just wrong and it looks horrible too, so i dont think its such a good idea

[Reflexorz]

I agree Audiman, I think you should just leave the snow and rain out.. Maybe when it gets better but right now the rain and stuff just isn't the most realistic thing.. When it does get better you can always just update and come out with a new pack with the snow and rain. Cheers!

well, if there was a rain version, for a rain sound, you could get a .wav of a storm and have that as the ambient sound, to at least create the illusion of a storm rolling through. I think it would add some more realism to rainy maps.

yeah but then you still have the problem of it coming through objects and the visual aspect too, i think i will leave it out this time

Thanks! When I read the post above I was like NOOOO!!!! IT GOES INSIDE EVERYTHING!!

Good to know you will be doing Alpha Splatting!

If you do put rain in the map, try the "precipitation_drizzle.png" texture with low intensity. Still looks like it's raining, but it's a lot less distracting than the default rain, even if it rains inside. Would be nice to get fog/haze working again. Rain doesn't look very convincing without it. I guess it hasn't worked since it was linked to the visibility range.

going through hell at the moment, 9 layers of alpha splatting to do, very very hard, especially as i've never done anything like this, 2 days i've been working on this god damn thing

[Miura]

I suggest combining some of the alpha maps and maybe getting rid of surface types that aren't necessary. Less work to make the maps, and you'll get better performance. I think the number of layers has a big effect on FPS, so it should be optimized especially on a map like this with lots of objects too.

no im not doing alpha splatting, i got some cliffs right and it looks really nice, but everything else looks pretty bad, so im leaving it as it is because everything was right with the standard texture

yes and if everyone gave me feedback it would be great

take note of a few bugs, 2 pieces of road are way stretched, when you see them dont drive on them, its not a problem its two pieces of road lol
airport taxiway is at a weird angle
airport hanger has a step in it
maybe a few depo's are at weird angles but that is it

[BUS121]

Wow realy awesome map!!!
