I didnt read everything but it looks like i will have to get a new computer soon..

i have a hard time finishing one project because i get bored and move on so i have a bunch of projects to finish.  Here is a little miny series that has 3 tracks so far.  They are super fun to make and really hard to ride.
Rnd. 1

Rnd. 2 without textures

Rnd. 3

If all you need is raised sides than make your terrain in photoshop(or another program that uses layers). Make a new layer and paint the track path black.  Than change the opacity of the layer until you get what you want.

oh and heres the ones im working on right now that will be released soon.  The first one will be released sooner than the second.  Not quite sure if i like the second one anymore. A little bored of it 

well these will never be finished because they blew up with my old computer but what the hell. The first one was finished and released but i can't find it anymore and i really want it. If anyone has it please let me know.




Im gonna try to recover the old HD just for this track, it was my best yet.

just something fun for a bunch of people to race on

something rough

Had better textures by the end, real fun though



and a really fun steamer

little 50 track

xgames in early beta

lots of jumps on this one

with little bike jumps/trails coming into it

you just need to calm down.  People release their tracks when they are happy with them whether they are perfect or not.  Not everyone has the skill level of a pro yet, everyone is learning.  If you want them to spend more time on their tracks and produce better tracks, than tell them that and give them constructive critisism on how to do that.  Bad mouthing someones track does not make them want to try harder, but some good critism does.  From personal experience, im no pro at all, but my work has gotten a lot better over time due to a lot of helpful people teaching me and telling me how to do things and how to make things better.  If i started making tracks and someone was bad mouthing them, i would have quit.  I am looking forward to your track, but why settle for 90% perfect?

I think that track looks really good lodge, cant wait to ride it. D dub did a really nice job on the textures too.

Actually i think i need a little more help.  I set up the parameters as 128 128 0 with no fixed height above surface for cam position and the same for target position with zoom set to 1 with orthagraphic unchecked yet im getting some of my ground cut off.  Any tips?

Thats the one i was looking for.  thanks a lot!

I remember a while ago O_R or someone made a tutorial for making cubes in terragen.  I used to know how but can't remember the parameters to put in to get the images right.  If anyone can point me in the right direction that would be great.

Heres the other track.  Rnd 2 of eroded raceway series. Not as rutted as the first Eroded raceway but i might change it up and make it rutted up. Gotta do the cube and objects and stuff on this one too.

This is one of them, ive got another. Basically done just gotta do a cube and objects and stuff.

im not sure but maybe the tga. isn't a 24 bit? Maybe its 8 or 32 bit.

Will one or two people test a track ive been working on for the past week or so?  Ive been away from mcm2 so long i cant tell if its my excitment that i can still make tracks thats blurring my vision so i can tell if its a good track or not. Post your email if you are interested.

i used v97.1 and it worked fine. maybe its just a little bug?

Im not sure if anyone else has had this problem because i just started making tracks again but i have v .97.2 and when i generate shadows to get the tree shadows the shadows are pitch black with white dots placed in straight lines.  I did make the trees pretty big so im guessing that could be the problem? Any help would be great.  I would upload a pic but i dont have an ftp program to upload to my space anymore. Ill get one soon.

Hows it going everyone.  Its been a long time since i have been somewhere related to MCM2. I recentley got a computer again and decided i would use a little of my spare time to play MCM2 again and hopefull make a few tracks for myself as well.  I was wondering if anyone had any of my old tracks.  I dont have anything from the past.  I also need a few other things to get started making tracks again.
