sx track scale

[Nikhil]

Just out of curiosity, why aren't jlv's SX tracks scaled at 100%? Since the bikes' power curves are mapped according to real life, wouldn't they work well on realistically scaled tracks

Its hard enough to avoid squid riders at 125%, downscaling would be a nightmare!

Here's the original topic where the decision was made.

Do you still have those two versions of Anaheim 1 with the two different scales? I wanted to try them out.

[DJ99X]

Should do it with one of the later tracks, as they were constructed quite differently to that track.

[Nikhil]

Yeah, I'd be interested to try one of the newer tracks at the 2 different scales. A1 2010 isn't anything like the current tracks (thank god haha).

Heres a dodgy conversion of 2011 oakland. Might be best to just remove the statues file

I've reuploaded anaheim1test1.saf.

Also, forgot to mention that that felt pretty good. I was only playing with my keyboard, but it didn't seem too bad

I tried A1 at 100%, and I didn't care for it. But Oakland was fantastic. It felt a lot more realistic, like what you see when you watch helmet cam SX footage. I think the newer style tracks lend themselves to 100% much better than the old ones. It's easier to clear obstacles, but I think that's offset by the fact that it's harder to slow down in time. And I'm sure jump faces could be slightly altered to make gaps a little more difficult when necessary?

Oakland at 1:1 scale is pretty sweet. I'd like 1:1 overall because some of the tracks feel like highways, way too wide. There's going to be carnage and chaos anyways, and whoever gets a clean start will be at least half a lap in front of the rear of the pack by lap 2 regardless of if the tracks are 1:1 or 1:1.25

Yeah, I agree. 1:1 is way better it's not much different and carnage will happen no matter what. Yeah the triple jump faces could be steeper in some cases. 1:1

[DJ99X]

I rescaled the height on that track. I'm not sure whether JLV kept the height at 1:1. If he did, then the jumps on that track I uploaded should be peakier

[DJ99X]

Here's Indy 2011 at 1:1. It does feel good. But its hard to say how it would go as a race track.

That is so much funner, I would love to see las vegas 2011 at 1:1 scale, can you do that too? or is it to much work?
