Title: Glen Helen 2015
Post by: 𝖙𝖋𝖈 on June 08, 2016, 09:22:23 PM
Link updated. Note, track not designed to run in current beta. It works, but traction is meh. Will be updated sometime in the future with maybe a 2020 Helen.

https://mxb-mods.com/glen-helen-2015/

First off, I know it's been a long time coming and I hope you all enjoy it as much as you think you will. It's pretty graphically intensive so you may need to turn your graphics down if you're running a lower end machine. One thing that took a lot of time was optimising, and I don't think it could have been optimised any further, you'll just have to turn 3d grass off and loose the bushes if you're having problems.

It was a big project to take on, I think the hardest thing was getting detail into the berms and low jumps being as the overall heightmap height is so big, very low detail was easily lost.

It's 2k heightmap and 2k textures, should run OK online.

If you need to stop the flag animation you can do so by removing the .SCR file from the track folder, removing it wont affect being able to play online.

Massive thanks to all involved, all help, all testing, all made the difference. Sorry if I've forgotten anyone.

Have fun!  8)

This track is absolutely amazing guys.  Thank you for the hard work...it rides so well and is tons of fun using the different lines.

Glad you're all enjoying it! Shame I have to run it very low quality to get a decent frame rate, guess some of you probably have to do the same..

just tested the track a few mins ago ... it is great!

only issue i have is to get to the inside lines, but that because of my bad breaking skills :D
if i ride 3rd Person, the downhill breaking bumps are a Little bit confusing for me, because the camera moves with the bumps (can i make other camera Settings somehow?!)

Braap, yeah, it's tough to get a lot of detail into small berms and inside lines when the heightmap is so tall.. For example in supercross a berm is probably 20% of the overall height of the track, and here in Glen Helen a berm is probably .5% of the overall height.. If you know how heightmaps work you'll know that's a lot of lost detail!

yeah i dont understand a word of highmaps ... :P but it sounds very strange and difficult to make. but i just love the new tracks!

here is a flat track HM (http://i473.photobucket.com/albums/rr96/alberto167/a1displayers.jpg)

and here is a mx track with more level (http://www.mxtracks.us/mcm2/Tutorials/Dispmaps/page2images/FinishedDispMap.gif)
full white is the higher point and full black is a lower point.

So on a SX track the higher point will be the top of a triple for exemple. so you can  easily see the berms and all the rest. on a track like GH with a big mountain like this, obviously, you can barely see the lil berms ... Good job again TFC that's GREAT with a big G.
