Hmm... Yes, on one hand it's a very nice and lively track, and the textures are very good. Each of the trackmakers showed that they are skilled enough to do a nice looking square. :up:
However, I feel that this track doesn't "know" what it wants to be. It looks a lot like it is mixed together. It looks like there is a cut between a huge city and a countryside track (look at the attached picture) :shrug:

Top-job guys. Clearly 5/5 :bowdown:
Your community proofs again that many of the top-trackmakers around here are polish.
I guess it´s time for the german-team to give an answer and to set things right around here. :weeds: :P

I agree with XYY.
The overall atmosphere is not really consistent, even if it might be intended from your side.
It changes from a street-circuit to a road-circuit to a (almost) rally-track.
Also there are palm-trees in the lower-right corner and only pines and leaf-trees in the top-left corner...
Plus, I´m not a big fan of the rail-tracks. They look good for themselves but they don´t match the style of the rest of the track and they don´t really run parallel to the road.

I hope you guys know that this is criticism on a VERY high level and not meant personally. :frying pan:
But maybe my "german-pride" is also a little harmed. :wink2:

When making my square (bottom-right) I was thinking about Wilanów in Warsaw where you can litterally see that image: a lot of modern blocks of flats and when u cross the street you are on farm so you can hug some cow or something :rofl:

This is a very strong Joint Effort, the layout has been kept very simple and seems to flow nicely.

And I personally like the edge of city/farmland mix. I just dont understand the purporse of the crossing in the top left :scratch:

+1 True story. ;D I don't like a rail tracks either but it's kinda "popular" that railways don't go parallel to the road ;d

Thanks for comments Wojtek, Hermes, MASA, XYY, Scholl, Boko and BBA. :)

I agree that an office block right next to a farm doesn't look very authentic, but the problem could be a lot worse, it doesn't really bother me.

The track looks lovely, the tarmac areas are great. I think the open green area in the middle would've had potential, it would've brought some more variation into the scenery.

:wow:

BTW I'm not used to see in CZE a railway strictly parallel to a near road. Maybe it is however a natural feeling for people from large flatlands?

From city, where i live (Roznov pod Radhostem) to the nearest "big" city (Valasske Mezirici) is railway parallel to a main road almost all the time :D
btw. Really good job guys! :up: :star: :star: :star: :star: :star:
