Title: Guess the Corner (and win big!!!)
Post by: Guybrush Threepwood on December 21, 2014, 10:32:42 AM
For fun.

I'm sticking with tracks that we have had an organised race on here at XGN (not just the season races though).

First prize wins an all expenses paid trip to meet Marty in person, paid by Marty.  He's lonely.

An easy one to start:

(Hmmm, how do I fit the entire image into the post so people don't have to scroll to see the whole pic?)

That looks very gentrack1 to me. Sort of about T3.

Where do I collect my prize?

Nope.  The curbs at Don are blue and white.

Not for this one.  That would make it too easy :)

Funny I was thinking the exact same thing the other day (try to guess corners), not sure what triggered it.
But you really need to downsize those pictures to fit....

Correct.  OK, next one is a bit tougher:

I'm not sure how you do that.  The pictures are on Steam.  I thought there might be a function in these forums that would show the whole picture?

Hmmm.... light tarmac... those thingies inside the kerb are distinctive. That's a tight radius corner.
Title: Re: Guess the Corner (and win big!!!)
Post by: Bacchulum on December 21, 2014, 03:31:48 PM
I'd like to see more of the thingies, but it could be turn 1 Nurburgring?

Why are they on steam?  I thought you are making pictures...oh well.  You can still download it, resize it, and chuck it up again - imgur is a place simple to use if all else fails.

Because all I have to do is take a Steam screen shot and then post the link here.  Quick and easy.

No, not Vallelunga Gratulin, but you've got the right country ;)

The colours in Guy's screens throws me off as it looks a bit different on my screen.

The kerb gives away the track as Monza I think. Corner not sure maybe apex of one of the Lesbo's I guess first Lesbo. Where is the prize or do we have to go to your place and grab our own prizes when your out.  :D

Edit, on second thoughts I think its the parabolica.

It's not the Parabolica. ;)

LOL, that's because you've modified the crap out of everying.  Those looks are how things look normally, I guess.  But as you hear they're not his!

btw
Is that Lesmo 1 then?
Lesmo 2 has some green stuff on the inside IIRC, doesn't it?

 I think the track is Monaco. Casino Square corner.

I was pretty sure as I had walked the track last September.

I've tried to take the screen shots from fairly obscure angles so it's a little bit more difficult.  Gives a different perspective I guess.

I'll be surprised if someone doesn't get this quickly.

Nothing is modified in my game thats just how the game looks with things turned up.

Good that I modified my answer in a bad way last time, that wall and car combo looks a bit like Bruce's favourite track. Goodwood last turn to me.

If its not goodwood then maybe first turn at Salzburgring or whatever its called and those useless no collidable chicane bundles.

Post by: Bird on December 22, 2014, 01:20:57 PM
No multi-guessing, mate, if that's allowed you can just list out all the potential answers! :)
(not that I can recall the track names, anyway...)

I'll take the last answer in any multi-answer post, and that answer is correct.

T1, Salsburgring.

I'm out of screenies for now, so anyone else can feel free to post if they would like.

Easy to pick the track there but there wasnt much of the corner in the shot, I did hear a lot of you guys in the cobra race ended up on the wrong side of the fence so that may have rang some bells.  ;D
