New Track - Tropical Fever - Hard (Not Really) - Enjoy (:

[KaliniuS]

I thought Tropical Fever was good, but I did have a couple of things that bugged me:

1. The very first obstacle is definitely an "extreme" one and is much more difficult than the rest of the obstacles in the track.
2. I think the medal times were too strict. I had a decent run on the track with no faults and only got silver.
3. There were sections of the track where you were basically driving in a straight line with no obstacles, near the beginning, the rider actually just drives around them lol.

Still though, it's not a bad track. You have an eye for detail. You just need to flesh out your vision for the track a bit!

Thanks for the feedback Kalinious!

Yeah I'm not sure if it's because all I like is extremes and can 0 fault almost all of them ncluding the TC ones) or it's just my building. I really thought that the 1st obstacle was a Hard obstacle not an Extreme one.

The times... I'm really bad at those... I mean, My run is 27:8xx and the Platinum is 32:500... I can't get myself a bad time even if I tried... Well, Platinum will still be rewarding to those that get it then.

It's a flowy track what else can I say?

Thanks again for the Feedback!

A lot of non-builders don't realize how hard it is to set good medal times and it can be very difficult! As a general rule, you want to set your times how RedLynx would set them. Typically, a gold medal can still have 1-2 faults and a generous time. For your track, the platinum medal time is good but the gold is too strict I think. I would've set the gold medal time at 1 fault, and 41 seconds, and silver at 7 faults and 55 seconds.

I will keep that in mind when I start working on another track.

Thanks KaliniuS!

Thanks nyt, Nice run & glad you had fun.

Currently working on a re-make of AM-3 by Murdoc Loch.
(NO xPro, I'm actually not gonna rush this one. It'll be as exact as possible)

I hope to get Murdoc to test with me so I can get his opinion.

Is that a Yes?

I am watching your video of it & building the line as the track goes. Then the testing/fine-tuning starts.

Also, I haven't used seed buildings, I'm actually using the shack pieces to build it & save complexity.

Edit: Just got your message. Thanks!

I seriously look forward to seeing your version of AM3 bud, one of my all time favourite HD tracks
