Upcoming Tracks and Track Objects #2

You don't put the satellite image as the terrain, you put it as a decal, but everything else is flat still. Then you build around that image.
I know he exported a heightmap to get it, but if you're asking that I don't think you're going to be able to do that. I haven't actually figured it out either and I have been spending hours and hours on it.

didn't he post what he did and used to do it when he first got it to work i believe it was a few pages before this when the terrain was just getting undergoing. i could be wrong but i swore i saw it

[BrutalMX]

When I try to put the image as a decal to work off of...its too smalll. How exactly do i line it up perfect? I guess the image itself must be a perfect 1025x1025 correct? but which coordinates do i enter?
Im trying to make a replica track , but these decals are really getting to me. I dont know if i should just make the whole track first (jumps,berms,etc) and THEN do the decals to get the track layout correcT? whats everyones ways? I need to know!

Use the ShadingX2.ppm for the image... Then adjust the terrain HF file to get the track to scale..

[BrutalMX]

How exactly do I use the Shadingx2 as the image? Must i save the image as a ppm or something? please explain...

Make the image 1025x1025, save the satellite image as shadingX2.ppm, then put it in the track folder.

haggqvist...I have some questions!

I could probably write a short tutorial on how I'm going about to make Hangtown later... Right now I just want to get it finished in time though.

didn't he post what he did and used to do it when he first got it to work i believe it was a few pages before this...

You're right, I did and it's on page #111. The GIS software I used can be found here http://www.usna.edu/Users/oceano/pguth/ ... crodem.htm

Use the ShadingX2.ppm for the image...

Why use the shadingx2 for the reference pic? As soon as you update the shading in any way the image is gone.
I use a decal with transparency for reference. Just make a decal with power of two dimensions and place it at coordinates 1024.5 1024.5 with a scale of 2049.

I use it for scale usually and a referance in the editor ..I mostly use it in PS...by the time im ready for updating I dont need the image any longer...Also its fast and easy to get in ...

Who made this track? I thought it was haggvist, it would be amazing to make it in summer time, with some wider ruts, like fort winston or something, that would make the track even better i think.
But i like it.

what track is this???
i havent got this one or seen it beforez???
looks like a nice track to ride

A whoops training track was requested somewhere, so I decided to make one.
Still have decals and a few sections yet to do.
The track is pretty massive, the second pic has me riding it for reference on how big it is=p
