WIP-Circuito de Vila do Conde

Or the Brazilian Beatles, Os Mutantes

ohhh shit, with all the imagination we have I think we should do our own simulator guys!!
Maybe we could do better then ISI and become reach!!!
I could really use the money... I'm unnemployed

I've align the track with the google 3d object with height.
Meaning that I have a terrain where to start laying stuff.
First I will try to drive it to see if the height data is correct.

Unreal Engine 3 is free, if you want to make a game for free.
99$, if your earnings don't exceed $ 50,000.
And more if your earnings are above.

Didn't quite understand Ben...

Now... the good news, is that I now can convert everything into BTB, so I've tried to put some objects on the track and... IT WORKS
Now I have to learn more about the texture mapping stuff to look cooler.
But, I'm getting there

You can do the simulator with the Unreal Engine 3.

hummmm.. but I'm afraid I do't have the skills for that... only imagination.

Ok, here´s the 1st test of the track itself:

I am now working on the terrain textures and keep building objects..
Things are going well.

Now, I found this great video of the races here at 1988; check it out:

I am now having much trouble...
The game crashes when loading my latest version
I have to sort that out in order to place the objects... from there its gonna be fast till the first beta I guess.
Wish me luck

OK no Crash now!
I have more houses and stuff ready, but I'm still working on the layout... I want i to be accurate.
So here's the second test to the track layout:


Cheers

The PVN Alfa lives keep up the great work David

Thank you Carl, that means a lot to me.
This is killing me, but I WILL FINISH THIS!!!!
Here´s something to tease you guys:

Ok here's how it is now; the «esses» are allmost done.
And I added a few more objects to the track and some terrain.

after this one you can create all that's missing to make beautiful HSO championship

Don't forget to come race with us sometimes, to keep fresh air in your mind

I will, soon as the Euro GT restarts.

No offence, but that '88 event looked more like a destruction derby

That's why we loved racing in those days

Once you try the track with those kind of cars... lets say 20 of them; you will se why so many drivers didn't make it.
Its pretty narrow on the «esses» and very easy to make a mistake on the last right off the «esses».
The circuit is short, the 1st corner after the straight is slow, then the esses after another hard braking its done in 1st gear. Then after the esses its really fast, but hard to get right at a car made until the 80's era.
I hope you can all test it soon.

Nice WIP, great job David

Thanks Ben.
Here's the «curva do castelo» - Castle Corner with tha actual castle.. wich is a fort
