    Eevan80's Evo Tracks -- 'Unobstructed Sights' NEW 01 Dec 13

    I had to reshare my track due to mentioned building issues. It's now called 'Unobstructed Sights'. I completely understand if you don't have the patience to run it again, but hey, it's just one day old so maybe you'll have another try!

    I normally hate to reshare tracks but i felt something was unfinished and i hope everyone can understand this!

    Would be nice if you rate/re-rate the original track 'Unobstructed View' 1 star to make it vanish.. Thanks people!

    Hello!

    New track up called 'Colonies'. I wanted the track to be medium but have a hopefully challenging speedrun line. Hope you'll enjoy it!
    Oh and any kind of feedback is appreciated, thank you!

    Hello everybody!

    I just released my new track 'Liquefied', so i decided to make this topic where i can share my tracks with you.

    The track's setting is a liquid gas facility, with a technical driving line and a hard difficulty.
    I'm not building tracks regularly, just starting to get used to the editor little by little. So any feedback is very appreciated. If you like to leave any, it would be perfect. If not, at least i hope you enjoyed it!

    Liquefied is pretty cool! I have a couple of small issues with it, though:

    - Lighting is a little... flat. The track could use some more ambient lighting that has some change to it.
    - The electric floor section confused me at first. The particles are cool, but some louder effects would help demonstrate the hazard well.
    - After the red wire spools there's a jump between a rail and a fence. It feels very awkward.

    Other than that, really cool track! I can wait to see what else you put out!

    Thanks for the feedback!

    The lights made me much trouble. I wanted to illuminate a lot more, you can trust me, but it just wasn't possible. I don't know why, but after setting some lights, light count already reached its limit in nearly every area and i got those pixels all over the place. So i had to remove a lot of them. What is left now are some point lights to illuminate important parts of the dl and some wall lights. Also of course natural light coming through the windows.

    Sorry to hear that. I worked a lot on those planks to get a right feeling, using custom collisions. I made this jump a thousand times and for me it actually feels right now tbh. Maybe you mean that you sometimes have a feeling of the back wheel slowing down? Or probably not really slowing down, something else, more visual.

    Fair point! At first, it should more seem like heat instead of electricity, cause of those sparks. So i needed no sound effects. But after putting the electricity sign somewhere later, it was clear the first fence must be quite the same.
    Just didn't think about putting some sound effects for it, my bad!

    Glad you had some fun with it. Just unbelieveable, how much effort goes into a track. All those details (decor & dl), not to mention those metal bolts! So it's of course good to get some constructive feedback, what secures making less mistakes the next time. Hopefully!

    Looks like a great track from the video above. I'll give this one a whirl later when I get home and let you know what I think. Love the smoke/liquid nitrogen look at the beginning, works really well for the atmosphere of the track.

    That would be nice!

    Got top spot on your new one yesterday. In a total of four riders!
    Really liked the colours and atmosphere, the surface somehow gave me a very soft and smooth riding feeling. Just a feeling or was it intended?

    You've moved down the leaderboard a bit since then but that was a good run considering how quickly you got it. The track was only out about 2 minutes!

    Thanks. Oh yes, it was definitely intended, I spent a lot of time tweaking the object parameters to get exactly the right feeling.

    Glad you liked it though and thanks for giving it a go.

    Regarding your track, I really enjoyed it too. Nice driving line, good decoration, especially (as mentioned previously) the smoke/liquid nitrogen look at the beginning. Very effective, I love the way it turned out. Medal times were well considered, overall a great track. The one thing that I think would have improved the track further would be if you had worked on the lighting a little more. Maybe a couple of swinging or flickering lights and subtle changes in colour as you go into different 'rooms'. Perhaps some focussed lighting on certain sections. It helps to add depth to your backgrounds and improves the atmosphere further.

    Good stuff though, I enjoyed playing it a lot.

    Cheers,

    LM
