NASCAR Tracks

Post by Klutch » Sun Jul 06, 2008 7:26 am

I found out there is a way to make the outside lines on tracks faster, i was wondering if anyone could either tell me or (teach me how) or do this for me. I wanted the nascar tracks that keppana made with the outside line to be faster so that the racing is more competitive. I would really appreciate this if anyone could help.

If you open "terrains.ter" in the "Data"-folder you can see ID

For example this:

Code: Select all

Terrain 	Track edge
  id		15
  isWall	0
  viscosity	0.8
  acceleration	0.8
  braking	1.0
  grip		1.0
  steering	1.2
  skidMark 	1
  tyreMark      0
End
If you take that code and put in top of your .trk file of the track (after Include tiles2.til) you can edit in it. For example you could make a higher a acceleration or so on.

Then if you put the edges on the track, they will seem faster.

I don't know how much experience you have with tile-making, but you could also make your own -pat and -img file (that maybe fit better into the Nascar track).

How do you think I learned? :)

Try your self, and if it doesn't work, try again! If it's still not working, tell what your problem is :)

Good luck! :)

Just include the code Anddru gave you in your trk-file, put it below "Include tiles2.til" and change the values to your liking, like changing acceleration as Anddru suggested. Use a simple text editor, like note pad. This will change the properties for the Track edge terrain.
