weather change on tracks

Post by RideRed04 »

wasn't sure how any one can do it but I thought it would be a sick suggestion to have some weather on tracks like have a rain race that makes a mudder or just any kind of different change of time would be sick instead of having perfect weather / time I mean this game is a "sim" so why not have weather since most riders practice in anything for the most part.

Wind is a big factor when riding when it comes to weather terms but that's not implemented into the game so that at the moment is impossible to do. As for things such as rain, it could be done but instead of it like, gradually falling it would just one minute not be there then the next minute the sequence file would kick in and it would look unrealistic and probably quite stupid to be honest. A long side the rain would come a wet surface, and wet mud moves a lot during motocross as i'm sure you already know but then brings up the factor of track deformation which as we also know is very very far from perfect at the moment so that wouldn't play out too great either. Weather change on tracks would also mean a change in lighting and a change in the skybox and both of these are also unable to be successfully completed.

Good idea, i think everyone can agree on that. However, completing it is currently close to impossible.
