Just a quick bug fix and some lore in the description

It still doesn't work for me, It just doesn't show up in game, I tried to "rezip" the folder, with some success, but then some texture were missing. The folders are still messed up inside the zip.

 

Issue on your end.
The latest version of the map shows up fine for me.

 

Can you double check? Older versions run fine, if I open the zip, the folders are not in the same order (they are mapname than levels, instead of every single other mod where levels and than mapname are the folder names)

 

Indeed you're right. I have an memory of having it show up but i think that it did that after I myself reorganized the file order
@JonnyTaunton Yeah the file order is still incorrect. It's supposed to be levels/Partrasia_Raceway and then the art folders and such.
You put the levels after Partrasia_Raceway, which is incorrect.

 

Ok thanks for pointing it out, I'll need to redo the file system. Computers imploded on itself though meaning that getting the files is kind of tough

 

I already did it myself and it works:

Should i send the zip to you?

 

If you don't mind, also just a quick note. Does it show up as a map for quick races?
--- Post updated ---

I added it as a feature but idk if it worked

 

Hmm, weird stuff happens on my side.
To make your map working I changed the folders order in zip from "Parthrasia_Raceway/levels/%files%" to correct one "levels/Parthrasia_Raceway/%files%", then it appeared ingame. But after loading something weird happened with the map, look at the screenshots

Censored?

Well, after reading logs and checking zip I realized that you forgot to add two files to the zip - "levels/Partrasia_Raceway/art/shapes/buildings/eca/eca_bld_roof_objects_s.dds" and "levels/Partrasia_Raceway/art/shapes/buildings/eca/eca_bld_cleanwall_01_d.dds". There is one cleanwall dds file, but it has no 01 in the name and therefore could not be loaded.

Please, fix the map, I cant wait to drive through it!

 

I have driven the map myself and i've tested it in quickrace too. I've not encountered such errors. I've sent him an file that has the correct folder structure.
Are entirely sure that you have the right version and that the mod download wasn't corrupted?

 

Ok, redl'ed the map and rerenamed, the censored bug moved away, but the log still shows that two texture files are missing

 

Yeah I looked at the folders and those two file aren't there, so you were correct on that one.

 

I dont know if this was mentioned, but the track has the endencie to blow out tires out of the blue, either in the tarmac itself or when a wheel steps out oif the tarmac and the re-enters the track.

 

The edge of the race track "road" is sharp and easily cuts up the tires. It hasn't been mentioned in this thread (i think) but i did mention it to him in an pm and he seems to be working on an fix for it.

 

I had this happening too, I did only download map, put it in mods folder and attempted to drive, but black stuff was there. Maybe next version works better.

Thanks!

 

Was about to draw a circuit map today; 75% finished and electricity in my house suddenly went out
Anyway, a suggestion on track design:

You have 2 mid-speed chicanes, so I changed the first one similar to Monza's Ascari, and second one into a 80-degree left turn in middle; those 2 hairpins are too tight to put together, so I changed it into a 90 degree left-hander, followed by a sweep-right (similar to Zhuhai's T4 & T5)

If you really want a tight hairpin on track,

you can add it to where the second mid-speed chicane was
