Suggestions for Mx Sim Editor

[Voutare]

There is a technique I've been experimenting with that combines ideas from mva and mxs as far as texture painting. Goardy pioneered this idea which he is using on Donington, and I'm sure Lakewood. There are of course at least a couple of things you can do to allow this also style. I'll upload a pic showing what you could do.

And this way looks awesome. Definately the best way so far to go about making track decals.

Now, if only I could use my computer, get rid of that fucking virus, and upload the completed version...

I think most of you don't realise why most games don't have an editor of some sort. The better looking the game is, the more complex it is to make a 'level' (track in this case). You should be thankful that you can even place textures in game

offcambers arent hard, all you have to do is make it like a berm, except have it rise up in the middle.

im talking in the sense of jumps
like if i was to make a double on a hill the part near the bottom would be defined the top part would almost be like a table becausethe lip has fused into the side of the hill

Then that would have to apply for making skins, models and objects not just tracks.

Modelling and skinning is pretty much the same for all games. Its just collisions and placement of models/ ground textures that is difficult and varies from game to game

If you use gradient linear add, you paint just like when using g-l-paint, but each pixel you paint is placed the same amount above the pixel below. meaning if your jump is on a 15 degree horizontal slope, the lip of the jump will also be a 15 degree slope. The only proble with add, is that you can only really do it once. If you make changes, and then do add, your jump will be twice as tall. I hope this makes sense.

actually this made a great deal of sense i never knew what add did so i always used paint but now that this is explained i might be able to solve a few problems
