[cir] Circuit of Thomas Bata v2.0

Post by FRUKIScze »

EDIT: SCROLL DOWN FOR NEW VERSION!

cheerleader: NEW TRACK cheerleader:

I would like to present you my :greybeard: work. I am working on it since 11/2012 and long way comes to the end.
This is fictional track placed on real world city. It's called Okruh Tomáše Bati (circuit of Thomas Bata ). It was inspired by several tracks. Austin, Paul Ricard, Yeongam, Suzuka, Barcelona. I thing, that is all. There are two layouts. GP, and F. One with and one without slowdown chicane. AI line was tested by newest F1 car pack by XYY.(sorry Gzehoo, but you release it too late).
What to say more? I hope, that you will not hate red line, you will not hate Austin curve, and you will not like it. So download it, try it, give a feedback, give a feedback, and give a feedback.

PS: I hope, that url will work :rofl:

OK, fast reply. Layout good, but in top middle is.. Is only trees (and highway)! There would be quite huge part of track. Btw, 2nd attention: on 3rd turn, return, this altitude is.. bad. Better would be, if this altitude would brake up on straight.
However, not bad, but please correct this adjust on return :)

For me, there is way too much space between pits and start positions. 3rd turn is bad (hmap), too many trees fill free spaces...
Also, I don't like colour of the kerbs. I would pick white/green or white/brown.

At the first glance, it is pretty obvious that this circuit is inspired by Tilkedromes. It did not surprise me that it is not everyone's cup of tea, since it resembles a so-called 'Tilkedrome'.   ;)
Scenery-wise, I am not really fond of the row of stands placed parallel to the start/finish line. Speaking of stands, focus the arrangement more on the infield (circuits lacking of stands in the infield is a rather atypical characteristic of Tilkedromes) 
I am not a fan of the layout, either, and the woods filling the infield and the remaining space looks quite boring imho, I like the idea of the road/motorway leading underneath the track itself and parts of the forest, though. 
In overall, your track is quite okay essentially, there are some spots in need of improvement, otherwise it is a fair 3.75/5. :star:

That looks slightly better, despite the Mickey Mouse-ish layout which is not my cup of tea. (this was the case in the previous version of the circuit, too)

If you want ! :)

The first time I saw your track (the first version), I was very surprised of these beautiful red/blue lines of your tracks ! It's very appealing !
Your improved track is way better than the first, especially with the addition of layouts and the fix of the altitude in the last corner (if my memory's right, which is not always the case...).
I didn't race on it, but I think you make all the AI lines and checkpoints well, so good job to both of you FRUKIScze and YoNnie ! :bg:

Thanks Kikwik.

Yes. These lines are very hard to make (i mean, that this take a lot of time). And AI-line was tested with PGRF1 cars.
Maybe one little comment? (comments like "great track!" or "good track" are welcome)

I must say this blue and red lines aren't difficult to do :D. It's just very boring and take many time :)

I really like the track! Even if I´m not a big fan of WS 225 fictional circuits.
Very clean work on the Lmap. It´s obvious that you have spent a lot of time on it.
Maybe you could have been a bit more creative on the surroundings...
