how do you make these ttacks so fast and so nice?

well the more you use BTB the easier it gets, and faster, they seem to keep getting better every new track i do.
which i think is normal, the more you do something the better you get, also 3Dsimed is a major part in the build, inspecting the track, and moving parts around.
and i have been using 3Dsimed for 6 years now, I don't know what i would do without it.
not sure what to do next, as i love the fast tracks the best.

Zuera is a cool track.

And it doesn't have to much objects.

Btw. I like Suzuka. But keep in mind quality is better than quantity :)

This project is only in early stages and it looks great

I got the satellite photo of the track, looks simple, other than getting the buildings detailed
also looks like a very fast track.. kind of boring to look at, but i'm sure it's fun to drive.
reminds me of racing in Las Vegas, very ugly track, everything is brown, no trees, no grass, just dirt and dead looking.
I didn't know Spain had deserts, I guess you learn something every day.

and yes the track improves every hour i work on it..
after the video, i added new road texture, and all the road marking for the grid.
not sure what to do about the partial F1 track that runs very close to pit entrance.
i have a few tracks to use and chop up to add it, i just don't want to kill the frame rates with tons of detail.
I still need to add some power lines, tele poles, and little stuff like that.

They held wsk euro series races there so it should be a good track for all the classes I suppose.

cool track
and Zuera is awsome it 15m wide as they race motobikes there and its really fast as a track. I raced there last year for the european cup and its amazing to drive

i may need help, if someone could help with the pit building, and grandstand, the rest should be a piece of cake.
Suzuka in the final stages.. just added the F1 track section today, looks really nice and adds to the looks.
also will be adding the start, and pit lights tonight, i do have a few little buildings to add, and some bushes.
then i need to make the AIW for rFactor.. Cam file is finished., new video in the next few days.

Hey Slimjim, what's the next track your going to build, if you haven't already got a track in mind can you please build 1 or 2 Australian tracks please. Your really good and so fast and I was just hoping you might have time to please build one or two Aussie tracks, it would be really appreciated if you could.
Thanks DPKarter#43

oakleigh is the best australian track its the one that they have made on kartsim and plus u can watch the kartsim video to get all the right undulations

If you are going to make an Australian track, please make Emerald Kart Track. It is almost brand new and as of right now the only one which meets international standards. The shifter karts do over 140 km/h, it's 10m wide and over 1km long, all the top drivers here that have driven on it rank it the best track in Australia, including Cian Fothergill, Kel Treseder and others. I can get onboard video footage to help with the creation if necessary.

here is my latest video of Suzuka South Course Karting track..
this is just a beta for rF2, doing testing getting my 1st track and kart in the game..
so texture quality has not been tweaked yet to get maximum use.

Puckapunyal or Hume International Raceway is the best track in Australia. By Far.

Title: Re: Suzuka South Course Karting Complex WIP
Post by: Slimjim on September 30, 2012, 10:49:54 AM
when they are finished, not sure why i finished Suzuka 1st as it was the last track i started.
i guess i was just having fun making it, and the next thing you know , it's finished...lol
i'm still debating on what to do about starting lights for New Castle, as they don't have any.
but i would like to add some, as many complain about not knowing when the race starts...lol
Title: Re: Suzuka South Course Karting Complex WIP
Post by: EVO on September 30, 2012, 10:17:56 PM
you can make small portable ones.  NJMP also doesnt have start lights but for WSK they put some up.

Dose final version of Suzuka South Course Karting course for KRP yet?
I can't wait to see that
Thanks
Title: Re: Suzuka South Course Karting Complex WIP
Post by: maxrod on October 11, 2012, 05:07:33 PM
Slimjim are you going to put any of these tracks into rfactor2 when the karts are released.
Title: Re: Suzuka South Course Karting Complex WIP
Post by: EVO on October 11, 2012, 05:30:15 PM
Soon it will be released. Slimjim ETA your other tracks? can you make the extra bits of track not extend into the main course?  Also you must try Beta7
Title: Re: Suzuka South Course Karting Complex WIP
Post by: Slimjim on October 15, 2012, 09:52:37 PM
Sorry i have been down and out due to this Flue i got a few weeks ago.
it's really kicking my ass, hope to finish up the other 2 tracks maybe next week, once i can work without running to spit out oysters every 2 minutes....lol
and not sure about rF2 yet, i do have Suzuka ported over, but my free trial version of 3DSimed 3 beta has run out.
and at the moment, not sure if i will work on rF2, i may switch over to Assetto Corsa when it's released, depends on how easy converting things are.
I do like rF2, but having to work 5X harder for a hobby,and ISI reaping the benefits of others work doesn't seem justified this time around.

hopr you feel better Jim.  Will A.C. be moddable enough you think? i have several 3d car models id like to make drivable.  I started making ferrari F40LM anf the Caparo T1 for TDU but never finished.
Title: Re: Suzuka South Course Karting Complex WIP
Post by: Slimjim on October 16, 2012, 09:24:13 AM
They are saying AC is going to be mod friendly.
so only time will tell, until i get my hands on it, i can't say.
Title: Re: Suzuka South Course Karting Complex WIP
Post by: CRGDK37 on November 03, 2012, 07:40:54 PM
I cant quite remember but did i see somewhere that this was being converted for krp? ??? i hope so because it looks awesome!
Title: Re: Suzuka South Course Karting Complex WIP
Post by: EVO on November 04, 2012, 02:29:11 AM
yess eventually.  i was 90% though conversion and saved over it by accident.  it was a pretty bad blunder.

Title: Re: Suzuka South Course Karting Complex WIP
Post by: EVO on February 13, 2013, 03:20:41 PM
SlimJim's Suzuka is almost ready with betas having bug fixes and texture updates to match the latest track condtions.
Title: Re: Suzuka South Course Karting Complex WIP
Post by: Slimjim on February 14, 2013, 11:14:33 PM
Sounds good, hope it all turns out ok...
i have released New Castle, but only with 1 layout, you may grab it at my site, or wait until rFc posts it.
i will add more layouts when i get time.. they are there, but in rF you need to make AIW's for every layout..
not sure how that works in KRP.

here is the direct DL for the rF version if you want to convert it.
