elCamsterino's Custom Tracks (X360)
New track "HW3 Take it EASY" recently released... It's an easy track with a couple of challenges. There's a speedrun line and also a secret Hard/Extreme route that you'll have to work out how to access.
I've worked hard to make it look as natural as possible and I hope you enjoy it... I'd love to hear your feedback.
Also please have a go at my other tracks... "Redneck's Folly" is short but fun!
Thanks

He, I've played Take it Easy and I liked the DL of the track. Couple of tricky jumps and although it's an easy track imo it takes some skill to lower your times.
I would suggest to lose the custom cameras though, they were distracting from the track. I'm not really a fan of sharp corners myself, but if you do them, it's better to force the bike to go slow, so it looks more natural. Two more things that are pretty important I think myself are the screen tearing I got multiple times and there is a rock obstacle just before you jump over the driving car which seems very inconsistent (didn't see if it was just because of terrain modification or it was because of the rocks.).
Try to avoid the screentear(remove vegetation for example) and for the rocks try using custom collision. Most rocks have weird hit collision. Some objects even stops your bike to a complete halt.
I haven't tried your other track, but I will check it out. Keep up with the building.

Thanks for the input, I started by following a path in the base world, probably not a great idea but i spent time smoothing the line out, although there are areas I could have been happier with. I'm not used to building easy tracks, all my evo stuff was tight technical lines but ive tried to expand my repertoire for fusion and work on decor and OPE's.
I think i know the rock part you mean.. is it the landing after the large jump to the beach? that was customs... the next rocks weren't but i had no problems with them in testing.
I still dont know how to work custom cameras though i admit, I normally wouldn't build such a bendy track either but i decided to challenge myself for the homework challenge.
Your comment about remove vegetation, is that from in front of the driveline?
Thanks again for all your input, I take it all on board.

I didn't really have a big issue with the curved line, but more the custom camera you put in that made it look weird. That's just a personal opinion though, maybe others won't have a problem with it.
In my experience the screentear will appear when you just have too much trees/bushes etc in the background, or a large tree in the foreground, especially when the leaves are onscreen. It's really more of a 360 problem though, it just can't handle it, what I've seen from next-gen consoles and pc most of the time that amount of vegetation wouldn't be a problem.
I meant the next rocks after the landing, maybe I just made the jump not well enough.

Yeah your right rocks after the landing didn't have customs... I guess I 'll have to put them on rocks all the time now if they're on the DL. I hoped the momentum would carry him over.
Thanks for explaining screen tear, I feel better now I know its not entirely my fault, although will look out for it and try to avoid in future.
Thanks again for all your help

New track "Core Principle" is released today!
It's a hard track with e few different routes for you to decide which is fastest.
Hope you enjoy it if you get a chance to play it. I enjoyed building it

My first Extreme track "Search & Rescue" is released today on 360. Just a quick build as I'm stuck with a couple of other things I'm building and I felt like releasing something.
Respect to all the real life Search and Rescue Guys and Girls who are mostly volunteers, and do an outstanding job at this time of year.
Have fun in the snow

New X-Supercross track "HW4 Sub Crust" out today...
Hope you enjoy it and please message me with any comments

Another X-Supercross track just released... "Mudslide" is a Medium track with a slippery muddy hill-climb. All bikes can make it but which is fastest?? It's pretty obvious to be honest

Hey folks, 2 new tracks to mention;
Training Session - Skill game - medium. Ride the train inside the station for as long as you can.
@ the Cave Inn - Trials - medium. 39.5s Platinum. Can only be achieved by finding the hidden route. I've deliberately not used it in my run to let you all find it yourselves 
Hope you enjoy them, these might be my last before I buy X1. no guarantees though
