Racing Track Bats

[Rictiovarus 1]

I'm building a simple pit-lane/paddock building for my first BAT, to be used in my racing track set, preferably so that it can be used as a wall to wall type situation. So I made the first model precisely no more than 32 metres across. However, it would not fit on a 2x2 lot. I then downscaled to less than 30 metres, but it STILL won't fit.

As you can probably see, the grey building placeholder in the right screen is MUCH bigger than the actual building...

one of two thing:

1- LODs are too big

2- use SC4tool to change it's occupant size to 32 or less

hope this helps

[Rictiovarus 1]

LODS! That was it. It works good now:

Thanks so much!

hey looks good!

Looks really good so far! remember to include some lighting gantries and some stands ! Perhaps you could add in some tyre tracks round the corners just to make it a bit more realistic?

[Gn_leugim 858]

and some tires marks in the start too

[Rictiovarus 1]

Some stands. Going to go do the Armco's now.

[Gn_leugim 858]

maybe you could tray to add some colour variety.. as they are, they look more solar panels =1 just a thought..

[Rictiovarus 1]

I modified the shinyness of the seat material a bit. And made them orange. And made the entire stand a bit bigger.

wow, this looks really cool.

Awesome. I've made racetracks before, but this will be even better, looks great!

[Rictiovarus 1]

Improved the pit-buildings.

[Gn_leugim 858]

nice.. very nice

[Rictiovarus 1]

Not related to racing, but I made this building. Was a great learning experience and also very very frustrating.

nice work.

i'd like to see a race track that is made functional. i think it is possible because it only needs to be comprised of puzzle pieces with paths - which i've made before; and (i'm assuming) an additinal automata generating/spawning item which is placed with it. maybe it's even possible to make the entire thing just by making one very large single TEL - but i can't be sure of that one.

either way, i doubt anyone would do it. for the work involved, it wouldn't add much to the game as it serves no real purpose other than eye-candy even with racing car automata driving around.

[Gn_leugim 858]

edcase is right.. a live racing track would be awesome.. but has to much work =1 about the building you made.. it looks very good.. only the window texture/color are to bright.. a darker one would better I think..

the race track is looking awsum
