The screenshots look really good, although I don't like that kind of asphalt. It looks a bit damaged, like the one on the old banked corners in Monza. But the other graphics look very realistic I think.
It's cool you made Autopolis, the existing version(s?) are crap. Now I can race with my sportscars there, that's great! Thank you Tim! Can't wait to have it!

I know, but a good asphalt texture is hard to make in some slots. Because not all grey colors are shown as good as they should. Has to do with the gp2 color palette settings, but I rather keep my hands off that....

Or else you get the colors of the rainbow on the road, which is nice, but not very realistic. Everytime i edit the color palette i get that effect...

maybe i should "rip-off" someone's tarmac texture somewhere.....

Wow, the screenies look awesome =D>

Can`t wait to get that track

Well, I always do that...

BUT: first some preview's:





Hope you like it. As you can (probably) see i've done some things that are new for me as a track maker.
- Higher horizon
- No trackmarkings, but bitmaps at the grid
- A real-life track in my own style!

Cars on the pictures are from 'DJS 2007 China' carset

Ready for download !

Thank you, for a very good track =D> =D> =D>

Great track! I hope you come up with more real life tracks...

Well done, Tim! I like the track a lot. I did a few laps on it (fastest time 1:35.637) and I have to say, that it is a really challenging circuit. I think I still can improve a lot. The tarmac looks better than I expected, now I think it's quite okay, nothing to say against it.

That is the planning for the moment. I want to make more real-life tracks in the future, after having made a lot
of fictional stuff.

Nice to hear, , i like the track also very much, and indeed it's very challenging... :-" With my 2007 carset you can drive just under 1.28.000 But only after much testing! [-o<

DO YOU [GUYS] LIKE THE NEW TRACKS MAPS, BY THE WAY???

I drove with my unfinished 1992 sportscar set. The car has 695 hp and weighs 650 kg. In reality the fastest laptime was set by a Peugeot in 1991, 1:30.xxx. I think with more practice I can reach them, too.

I think the look maybe a bit to unspectacular. Some information would be nice, circuit-name, lap-record, building-date, etc.. If you would add them it would look more interesting.

@GP2: Thank you! The car (it's a Nissan ) will be available in my 1992 sportscar-carset. It still needs a lot of work. Maybe I'll release some single cars as a preview in the next time.

Well it is very nice to have this trackmap. But more information like V12 said would them make more perfect

Autopolis is a very nice Track.

But I never finish a race... Why ???? :-"

Congratulations

thanks for the comments. Will make use of it on the next track. .... LOL , no sure, i'll do!

This track is awesome, great work =D>

It's a great track for 24 hours race.
You think in a update for Autoplis Night ??? or with Rain ???

mmmh, no. Not really. only if more people want to...
