interesting idea I came up with

Post by staydown »

So I am designing a compound for team MDK. It's going to include mx, sx, and fmx. With the whole collison spheres not allowing for smooth fmx ramps, I thought about just modeling an fmx ramp without a collision file and placing it over a dirt ramp. The dirt ramp will have to have the same radius obviously to work, but this idea will allow for fully textured ramps which should make it look more realistic. This idea would also work for funboxes etc......

Hasn't that already been done with the FMX Rd. 1 map? The idea wasn't implemented in an incredibly well designed map, but it was a good fmx best trick sort of atmosphere. I'm not entirely certain that your idea is exactly the same, but it's at least similar.

FMX rnd 1 used dirt ramps with asphalt tile maps on top for better traction.

staydown is saying make FMX ramp objects without collisions and bury them into the dirt ramp just so the modeled ramp is sticking out a couple inches on top of the dirt.....

Im sure it could be done.

I was messing around with it today and it works out great. I just wanted to share this simple concept with the community.
