Welcome to Japan to my first rwl and my first track here..



The Tsukuba Circuit is located in Shimotsuma near the city of Tsukuba.

This track has been laying around in my folder since the death of and now i decided to post it. It´s my first real world track and my first track here. The landmap cars are from Markus Möller´s? (please correct if im wrong) landmap pack. The cars in the pictures are the 2010 Fomulas 1 by Ms...

A real world pic..

one straight could be longer...
maybe you should change the Worldsize, it doesn't seem to be over 200...

Agree, the straight is way too short

But im learning

Maybe the track is too large... Should be reduced IMHO.

What do you mean by too large.. Width or what...?

Yes the track width

it is a bit too wide, but only by a few of pixels tbh.

really, youve done quite a nice job here a few details here and there arent right, like the alignement of that oval thing and the two kinks after the 1st turn. if you made it narrower you would be able to find a bit more room for these kinks and also then hopefully some room for pit garages/paddock. also notice how the back straight is a lot longer than the pit straight,meaning the 2nd-last turn is the other side of the oval thing i mentioned before this could all be rectified by changing the WS just a little bit and as i said, making it a tiny bit narrower, rule of thumb i try and use is that the track width (white line and the grey line outside it included) is the width of 3 adjacent start boxes. i hope you understand that?

other than that your just missing a few textures really that would finish the track off nicely, good job tho

I agree, that the layout have some minor mistakes in comparison to real track and there not much textures, but in fact I like it, the effort is very clean and track has very nice atmosphere. So in sum not perfect, but great on first rwl.

I've got one thing to ask:
why is there a hay bale on the truck in top-right?

because he transports it to a place of track, where it's needed.

But it isn't centered on the platform but built over the whole texture (if you understand what I mean )

I think it's cool

What? the track or the hay bale?

Forget the hay bale
Thanks for all the constructive comments, they encourage me to get better.
I agree that the second straight is too short and that ithe track is too wide.
Maby ill make a second version if i find time.

Ok here is the second version.

• Changes:
  Reduced WS
  Polished AI line

I wouldn't have improved just AI line and reduce WS.
IMO you should have created a nearly complete new track, but you have to know

Corners 2-4 are bit different looking from the real track, also the second straight is kinda long.

i´ve played tsukuba in forza 3. your version in GR looks good. nicely done i think .. youre second version is much better and more realistic.

keep on

Thanks
I used to drive on it in Gran Turismo 4
