[cir] Pryce Circuit
[cir] Pryce Circuit
Hello, ppl!
This is my first track — Pryce Circuit.
A circuit with a couple of long straights and three U turns. Most of the curves are geometric, so might seem a wee bit rigid. But like I said, this is my first track, so I'm generally(ha!) afraid to experiment and poke around. I know I have a lot to learn and need to up my standards, but one step at a time. Please try it out, my progress depends on your feedback.
Best played with Formula One cars. But hey, I'm am F1 fan, so I'm biased.
Made with amatuerish passion, criticism more than welcome.

Re: [cir] Pryce Circuit
Welcome to trackmaking world utopist!
I saw that you are a F1 fan when I opened your post. This circuit is yelling: "I am Sepang's younger brother!"
It is very good first track, much better than mine. You have some learning to do in paint (dithering track and lmap, better runoffs, cars, etc.). Take a look at tracks made by track-making masters and you'll see those skills that you may apply to your work. Hmap is boring. Play with it and make it more interesting and exiciting than it is now. Pit lane is wide and you could save some space by moving pits closer to the pit lane.
I am very pleased to see new trackmakers around and you have potential to be a good one.

Re: [cir] Pryce Circuit
thanks, cocney!
I see your point, yes...need to improve my lmap skills. I tried a few hmap techniques, but came up with lumps around the track, and lost patience with that 64*64 bitmap.
But yes, I'll take your insights, and will try to right all that in my next track!
Thanks again, buddy!

Re: [cir] Pryce Circuit
Check out GRHMEdit for working with hmaps. It's a very powerful tool, particularly the spline editor. That particular tool takes a little getting used to, but it's extremely powerful and helpful one you do.

Re: [cir] Pryce Circuit
I also think that this track is more similar to Mugello than Sepang. Overall not bad track and deserves to be nominated for ToM.Hermes wrote:Nice Track

Since you're an F1 fan I'd like to ask you a question utopist - what inspired you to name the track Pryce Circuit. My first association will be that the track was named after Tom Pryce - a former F1 driver from Wales, who lost his live in a ridicilous accident 37 years ago.

Re: [cir] Pryce Circuit
Judging by its name I guess it is named in honour of Tom Pryce. I concur with concey that it is reminiscent of Sepang due to these two straightaways running parallel to each other. It's just the coniferous trees that don't correspond to the tropical climate in Malaysia.
All in all, nice work.

Re: [cir] Pryce Circuit
@Hermes and ivaneurope— Yup, Mugello and Sepang were my two main sources of inspiration for this. Good guess!
@ivaneurope and DuklaLiberec— Correct, I wanted to name it after someone who wasn't very famous, but needed more recognition than they were currently getting.
