S35R4 - The "Twist"
« on: November 03, 2020, 11:08:33 PM »
buellersdayoff was again dominant in the utes, getting pole and winning the race, with the fastest lap time. He was also looking strong again in the Supercars until he blew his engine on lap 18, leaving bradc to take the race win. Big movers in the Supercars standings were bradc and Wally, moving up 4 and 5 places respectively after podium results.

I think just for fun, we'll do the utes at the West layout, and the supercars at the international layout. I'll just leave the international layout up for practice.

Anybody else getting graphical problems with some of the corners on this track?

I'm seeing scenery underneath the kerbing on some corners, almost like the apex is floating.

Happening in VR & Normal mode  :o :(
NEVER TOO OLD TO RACE ... being competitive can be a PROBLEM though.

Yes, I am seeing the sky where the grass should be on some corners...

Yep, it is the material UV mapping or normals.

From my perspective it's not bad enough not to race, might be a bigger issue for VR. Sun angle might change / improve?

The two track combo is good, the short track suits the utes.

Which layout?

Both - exit T3, into the T4 kink is a good spot.  I can do a video if you need.

I am using CM, could try without (later).

Either incorrect 'BlendMode' or 'DepthMode' or both.

Fixed, same link.
Thanks Seanus.

All good now. Thanks.

I have noticed this is one of "those" tracks that won't allow you to select first until after the green. For educational purposes, do you know what causes that?

Jump Start takes three settings, Off, Drive Through, and Pits.
Off prevents selecting any gear before the lights go green.
And FYI the race server is set up with "Drive Through".

I don't mind looking at the times and seeing Bueller faster than me, but when Mael's up there too, gotta nip that shit in the bud!



Love the track never driven it before. That triple corner apex is awesome when you get it right.
