That is for sure Flow.I have heard of track modders taking up to 1 year to create a track from scratch. :shock:

I have to install the stuff for 3Dmax again Kaff.
We can give it a try but the 3Dmax program is very difficult to use and I haven't used it that much.

yeah lets just get this sorted out, the only thing we really need for now is a black track with grass besides it...and it will need a downhill, a uphill and a bridge too.

I just came accross this, a new version of Bob's Track Builder was just released:
16th Jan 2007 Version 0.2.1.0 released.

There have been many changes, the main points being:

Multiple Material Support
Editing of Cross Section Shape
Save and Load
Undo / Redo
Export to 3d Max
Maybe you knew about this already, it's a couple of days old...

Looking good. And Kaali should feel right at home on an Arctic racetrack! :wink:

Just a suggestion, don't post BMPs in the forums. They're MUCH bigger files than most other formats and just take up space needlessly on the server. For example, JPG or PNG, even with low compression, are still much more lightweight than the equivalent BMP.
