[cir] Bomfez

[XYY]

Hello
I made another track called "Bomfez". It was presented in WIP thread quite long time ago and now I release it
The zip contains two layouts:
-Normal track
-Track with short box
I hope you enjoy driving this track , so please comment

[MattyG]

Very well made track, glad its fullscreen too.. And has really good detail but what a weird name Hehe. Defo a keeper tho

[XYY]

Well I first thought about Fomzfeb but that sounded weird.
Thanks for the comment, but

Defo a keeper tho

[TuomoH]

It's "Definitely a keeper."

[XYY]

Sorry it might be a stupid question but what does he mean with "keeper"?

[Thunderstrucker]

Great track!!!!

It reminds me my hometown

[Darjo]

I don't know...

Thank you for this useful post, sir!
Seriously, you don't have to post useless things in every thread in this forum, it's annoying.


Well, I don't like the track so much . It doesn't have anything that I've never seen in other tracks
Look, I don't like the layout because it's almsost-oval (well, probably oval tracks fans will like it, but I find it boring to drive), the surroundings are quite... I don't know, they're actually ok but they're not anything special, they look a bit too green maybe. Try to experiment (unlike I did for a lot of time).

Anyways, even if this sounds a bit harsh, I'm trying to help you. The layout thingy is actually a personal opinion, so don't get down and keep trackmaking, I'm sure you will improve.

I won't give up trackmaking. I know theres nothing special about but thats the same with many tracks. And there you don't tell them what to improve

Sorry it might be a stupid question but what does he mean with "keeper"?

He means that it's something he would want to keep, i.e. pretty good

[Sutinen]

Honestly, this is not your best track, because the layout is boring. Sorry, thats just how it is, but otherwise its looking good.
Waiting for your offroad track.

Yes, that layout was started quite a long time ago. But as this track was nearly ready, I wanted to release, though it's layout is boring

At least one who likest the track

I know, i was just agreeing with XYY, but if that's annoying, i'll edit it.

@ XYY: the basic thing is, that the track too far in back. Making the visual part of track in GR is painting of picture or making a photo in fact, so the you need to choose, what will in each place. Obviously the track should be in front, but in your case the track creates almost ''one of backgrounds'' or how to describe it.

Look at this comparison:
Your track now ...

and modified by track transformer by LWing ...

Driver is closer and you can play with background. Now I would just make some nice lake with nice shore line in the top, peninsula hill under close forest and re-do the road there into lmap bridge above the lake.

[XYY]

Yes I know I could have edited with GRTT
But I wanted to keep that lake in bottom part

[Trigger Happy]

But the lake was precisely the ''mistake'', which I was talking about. You can make one in top with better effect.

[XYY]

I understood
But I don't know if I'll rework very fast

[Trigger Happy]

You don't need hurry. Or even you don't need to update this track at all. I just wanted to point it out to you - to not make similar thing again in a your future project. This track is closed chapter, it can stay as it is. And it's not so bad.

[Darjo]

I know theres nothing special about but thats the same with many tracks. And there you don't tell them what to improve

Sure, I forgot that:
1. Do that thingy that Ivo said.
2. Don't be afraid of leaving some small grass areas between bushes and trees
3. People can't get inside of the stands because the entrance is often closed by bushes. Sometimes adding a small tarmac area under the stands is nice (I don't mean always, but y'know, sometimes).
4. I personally don't like that kerbs cover the white line.
5. Add a small grass area between the cliff on right and the road.
6. You can add some paths near to the houses, this way it will look a bit more realistic.

These is what I'd improve if the track was mine
Well, actually if it was mine I would decrease world size and make the track wider to make it challenging, but that would be quite long to do and it's not so important anyways.

[XYY]

I know it's not a masterpiece. I think I won't rework cause theres too much to do (especially new layout) so I think I'll use your ideas as inspiration for my following tracks
