    Hello everyone,



    I'm working on a 6x6km map based on the village of Saint-Savin, France. This village hosts annually the Demptézieu Hillclimb race, which is part of the French Mountain Cup (https://www.ffsa.org/univers/montagne/coupes-championnats/championnat-de-france/calendrier).

    The map is based on LiDAR data.

    Currently, only the Montée de Demptézieu is done (which is the part where the race takes place), but not finished, and I'm planning on doing the whole village and its other "Hillclimbable" roads.

    The finished map will include :
    - 5 Hillclimbable roads (one officially in the French Mountain Cup)
    - a lot of dirt roads
    - 2 high speed roads
    - the whole village and its places (Saint-Savin, Demptézieu, Chapèze, Flosailles)
    - a part of the near village Saint-Chef
    - countryside roads
    - the quarry, which will let you do jumps and everything you want.

    Anyway, enough talking here is how the Montée de Demptézieu looks like in its current state.
    There is still a lot of work to be done, but enjoy.



    Compared to how it looks like in real life.




    I'm thinking about releasing beta versions one or two times per month, what do you think?

    Update : First public release! This pre-pre-pre-pre-alpha includes the finished Montée de Demptézieu with a time trial included.

    The file is very heavy because I've imported all East Coast USA and Italy assets to work with them. I'll remove all unused assets when the map will be finished. So for the moment, very heavy map.

    Your feedback is very much needed!

    Thank you for reading

    Looks very nice! Make sure to add some time trials for both asphalt, dirt, and mixed! Preferably 1:30-2:30 long but that's a personal preference

    Thank you! Of course I'll add time trials when possible! I'm almost finished with the main hillclimb road, I'll release a beta version with time trial when possible :)

    Thank you!

    Hello,

    I've been working on the height of the road which felt too steep at some places. I've also changed the forest and the reliefs so they totally fit to reality.
    I think I'll be done with this road at the end of the week. When it will be ready, I will add a time trial to share this first version with you.

    Here is how it looks now!



    Have a nice day

    Doesn't appear in game, you might want to zip it to the "levels" folder, not "rivier"

    0.24 does not work, the game crashes with an error. Runs on 0.27, looks lovely, but would like support for 0.24 or a version adapted to it if possible. Thank you!

    The driving itself is perfect: the road is very good, so that is the most important thing and gives a strong base. The grass seems to be twofold, 1 time on the ground and one time floating. Also the base green that is shining through isn´t very fitting. The file size is much too big, but I don´t know what you can do about this? Too big textures? But that can be adjusted, the essentials are right. Looking forward to the expansion and improvements! Merci beaucoup!

    Sorry but I don't know what could cause the problem. I will not make a version that runs on 0.24 as that would be an horrible mess for me to work with.

    I've also noticed the problem with the grass and honestly I didn't dig too deep to see what could be the problem. I'll check that for the next version.
    The size of the map is very big because I've collected all East Coast USA and Italy assets to work with them. I'm not at all planning on using everything but for the moment it's easier for me to keep all these files on the map for the moment. I'll remove all the unused assets once the map will be finished (in a very long time).
    Merci beaucoup pour ton retour!
