Maybe this can help, there were seconds until the engine pushed, and it was the second gear!

That's an awesome video :-D

If you still have any questions, ask away!

Thanks! I have the same problem!

What downshifting lag?

The KC1 and 3 bug is most important at the moment in my opinion, I stopped driving KC1 and 3 since beta 2, because the engine stalling all the time is very annoying.

That's not a bug... Enable idle helper if you keep on stalling!

No, switching the eye off won't work. You need to make the RGB channels white, this is specific for the rain in KRP. Ignore the RGB channels in the tutorial I linked, it's for second life (but the procedure is still relevant).

[This link might help]

By the way, I have another bug that you can see in the second picture, all the texturized walls are shown only from one side, if you are in the other side, the wall is invisible. Look at the roof of the boxes.

It's not a bug, this is standard 3d engine behaviour, all polys facing away from the camera are not shown. You will need to flip the roof polys so that they face downwards!

As for the rain, I can't quite make out what is going on from the screenshots... Make sure that the RGB channels are all white, and your puddles are in the alpha channel only! This link might help (specifically steps 3 & 4)

It'll work, but it's not a good thing to do. For instance, if you were to implement 3d grass, the grass blades would go through the tarmac!

You have grass geometry going through the road all over the place... You need to make sure there is no grass geometry under the road. Did you make this track in Max, or use BTB?

What do you mean exactly, 'grass on asphalt'?

To create the puddles texture you need to draw in the alpha channel, keeping the RGB channels white. It's best to just try it and see how it looks ingame!
The method I describe uses a second UV mapping for the puddles, covering a much larger area than the tarmac texture. So your puddles texture will loop, but at a much larger scale than the tarmac.

Snnaper, could you make a little tutorial of how do the puddles? I am not so good in 3Dmax and even with your explanation in track creation guide post, I wasn't able to do them. This is my last thing to do and if you can help me, I will release the final version of Magescq track this week.

Thank you 

Sorry, I somehow missed this post. What part specifically are you getting stuck at?
To add modifiers in Max: when you have objects selected, select Modifers -> UV Coordinates -> UVW Map from the menu bar.

Your centerline needs to be in the center of the track.... You seem to have drawn it as the racing line instead!

It's fixed! Thanks!

While it's great that you're hosting a dedicated server, it's not so great that you've got wind speed set to 55mph...

Any chance you could change this to something under 30mph (14m/s)?
