    This is my first project, and I want to start with a simple one. No PBR textures, no fancy features, just a fuss-free and simple driving map.

    The main focus of this landlocked 8192x8192 map is an approximately 9.2-mile (14.8km) Interstate Freeway, as well as a couple of rivers, a town, and plenty of side roads.

    There is going to be nothing fancy about it, just typical rural American scenery.

    Here is my first screenshot of it, and when I have more progress in the coming days, I will upload plenty of screenshots!

    I hope to have a playable beta released no later than the middle of November, and I hope to complete the map by Christmas!

    I can't wait to share my progress in the coming weeks, and I hope you enjoy! Thank you for viewing!

    It would be great if it was based on the Great Plains, as this is something BeamNG is really lacking, whereas we have plenty of highways running through forests and deserts. I have long wanted to create such a map myself but don't think I'll ever have the free time.

    I will try my best!

    The heightmap I used is one of a real location in northeastern Kansas, so the terrain is from the Great Plains!

    That's great to hear. By the way, if you want an idea for something funny to add to the map, why not a McDonald's Exit?

    I love seeing freeway maps in the game. So glad to see this one as well. Looking forward to all the progress to come
