hi mate
does this track perhaps use another name in GPB?
i'm asking, 'cause i installed it as per instructions, but the track does not seem to be in the list....?

[CapeDoctor]

thanks ptrshpt, that's fixed it

first lap impressions - great track!  love all the undulations, almost like a street track - challenging and potentially loads of fun! 

[zuco1989]

Its named Automodrom Grobnik. Also I said its in the test faze and I followed offical track edit rules so any suggestion I will make a fix in the future.

thanks

yes its great because of old asphalt in real life its also similar to this

[doubledragoncc]

Really well made track great work guys.

Can I make 2 main suggestions please.

1. Do NOT make Milestone and Fotza type Air Balloons in tracks!!! It is a major distraction from racing and it looks cheap like all bike games do. PLEASE remove such gimmicks they ruin the overall brilliance of your track.

2. The main TV cam needs to be named in game replay as TV Camera not LAP as you have. I am going to post further about a standard of cameras needed in ALL tracks to make the names and keyboard shortcuts order the same. This is important for live streaming and saves me going insane lol.

Thanks once again for a great new track.

[zuco1989]

No problem any good suggestion and rule will be applied soon as possible.

Yes I noticed this balloon to be a distraction. Next update it will be removed

[doubledragoncc]

Maybe add a little game to shoot the balloon down lol.

Great to hear thanks zuco.

i've been loving the track, putting in some laps between watching the GP at Assen.
i agree about the balloons, they are only a distraction.
other than that, the only trouble spot i have come across so far is just at the beginning of the curb section which starts just before the pit exit (on the trackside, not the pits)
hang on, maybe easier to post a screen:



just around where i have the red arrow - this area first caused my bike to hit something invisible, which flipped the bike right over. the next time round, trying to find the same spot, it caused a core crash....
so maybe that spot needs to be looked at.
otherwise....fun, fun, fun!!! 

[zuco1989]

This is excellent report, I will check this, also noticed to hit something there but as you said so much fun riding I didnt correct this

[zuco1989]

Reactive can you explain in short because I am trying to get same error on my pc and nothing for now?

[Reactive]

As you can see there is transparent texture on the track. And graphic driver is up to date.
I also tried ON/OFF for reflections, shaders — still the same.

[zuco1989]

Ok I will investigate this but for now this can be caused by bad elevation of main track asphalt what I discovered why theres a invisible wall hiting on kerb. I am just correcting it now but dont know if manage to upload soon.

After fix you can report to me again because I can not see this on my computer

[Reactive]

sure, I will wait for updated version.

hi zuco 

i have been testing more by that area where i reported an invisible obstacle.
i think i have a better idea now what it wrong. there is no obstacle - rather, it is a little hole/gap in the ground just before where that section of curb is.
so what is happening, when you approach at speed, the bike has a little moment where it 'sinks' in the ground, but if you're going fast enough, the front wheel clips the beginning edge of the curb, and as it is slightly below it, it has the sort of 'bike hitting an invisible object and flipping over' effect.
i found it by riding slowly along that area in reverse (reverse track, not gear, lol), and then you can see that at the end of the curb, the bike will sink under and fall through down into the virtual abyss....
hope this helps a bit.

Manu's MotoGP GSX-RR is an absolute BLAST around here, lol
