Badlands Rally (Beta on page 20 - post 384)

I don't know why, this reminds me of Pike's peak. Somehow...

Yeah, you have a pont

Looks very great. What's the scale btw, like is the road two cars wide or three or what?
Can't wait!

It's almost two cars wide, as it is in reality usually

Finally finished both tarmac and gravel version Now need to make the hard version (probably as an update after the official release of the map) and I have to add some additional stuff, which hopefully won't take much time.

Some pics of the gravel version:

Some pics of the gravel version:

Maybe hard version can be a KOH style race course? Some BIG rocks in some places right after a long stretch of fast desert? Climbs here and there and a few ditches and jumps?

I agree throw out some decent sized stones,pot wholes,trees or bushes hanging out into the road,maybe a few tumble weeds here and there, & keep the word "Demolition" in mind because everyone on this game loves crunched metal.

Looking really good

Thank you all guys for your comments!

I didn't know what kind of race course that was, until I searched for it on google. I think it is a very good idea, I will think about it though, because adding much more rocks and polys on the road to make the ditches etc, will decrease FPS a lot and the map is already not FPS friendly Anyway, I still have a lot time to think of it since I will work on it after the release.

a lot of improvements on this map!!! keep your hard work online, you're great!!!!!!

[Lifter]

[squishy]

[Dennis-W]

[JohnV]

Some nice teaser trailer of the map, made by Nadeox1:



Oh and I have done some progress btw, hope to finish it soon

[jdog1]

looks like it would make a good moonsining map to me... maybe hide a still some where in there? keep up the good work!

[JohnV]

BIG UPDATE!

Finished:
-All the signs (what a headache).
-Made the gravel road more rough (suitable for rally cars), though it needs some improvements.
-Added 3 races in total with rally symbols as checkpoints (separated them on different terrn files)

Left to do:
-Add 3 more races, which will be the reversed versions of the other 3.
-Wooden fences on the outside of most turns for protection.
-Rally tents on start/finish areas, crowds and other rally-related stuff.

Signs by LJFHutch (and some of them added by me after modifying the image).

Unbeliavable! Looks Fantastic!
Can´t want to try!

This map looks awesome so far, really liking it.

Was just thinking though, on the first attached pic where the road joins the dark asphalt would it be possible to use the same technique you used to get the sides of the roads to match the terrain to make the transition blend better. Just an idea, I understand if you don't want to add it as i can imagine it could be a pain to get right

I was actually thinking about this and will find a way to fix it, because I don't like it much either

Have fun with that
