Thanks! :)

oh and i like your maps:steamhappy:
Junebug 8 May, 2021 @ 6:14am 
the map did not work once
Junebug 8 May, 2021 @ 6:13am 
yah i said this before i discovered it was a fluke.

@Junebug - Unfortunately I don't think I can. The buildings and streets are where most of the lag comes from. I'd have to remove them to improve performance, and well, they're kinda integral to the whole map.

I may try a low-poly city eventually that would be usable by almost all PCs. But right now I'm kinda working on the opposite :)

Can you make so us laptop users can use it? (pretty much make it avalible for the minumum requirments for the game)

Thanks :)

I understand. Love your other maps, keep at it :steamhappy:
Slam Jones  [author] 11 Nov, 2020 @ 4:32pm 
It's a tricky situation. I love this map, but it has SO many issues, that solving them would essentially involve building a whole new map.

I'll likely fill in the empty city blocks but I'm not too sure what I should do after that.
5thDimensionZ 11 Nov, 2020 @ 8:04am 
Any updates planned for the future, or is this map just gonna be an old project and move on?
Slam Jones  [author] 2 Nov, 2020 @ 4:06pm 
Hey, well done!

There are two other Easter Eggs somewhere on the map. See if you can find em ;)

I found the hidden pandas.

@fleme750 - If it's a map from the workshop, then it should show up automatically in your map list. Just look at the bottom of the list, they should be listed as "Workshop: MapName".

If it's a map you made yourself, then go to the main menu, click the "Map" button, then click the little "+" symbol in the window that pops up. Select the folder that your map is in, and that should add it to your map list. It should show up in the map list as "Testing: MapName".

Hope that helps!

how do i add custom maps to my game?
Slam Jones  [author] 22 Jul, 2019 @ 5:16pm 
Also just went back, deleted that race, and re-made it with less rules. Almost anything except jets are allowed now. Give it a go and let me know if it works for you now :)
Slam Jones  [author] 22 Jul, 2019 @ 5:05pm 
Well each time I change the track slightly, the recorded laps get all messed up and all the cars appear to take off in random directions. As such, I've been deleting and then re-placing the races when they receive changes.

I'll do a full sweep and re-do all the races when the map is complete.

As for that race, is that May Highway (top/left side of map) or Hammond Highway (right side of map)? I know May Highway had a bunch of lag around corner 26(IIRC) and made it impossible to set new laps, so I had to completely re-make the race. I think Hammond Highway should have all the laps set so far (12 or so?) but few of the recorded laps still follow the actual road due to the bug listed above.

Also been trying to find a good set of rules that allow pretty much any car to compete. Let me know if you have any suggestions on that front!

Of course feel free to save the tracks and make a new race with rules that better suit your car. :)

Many good was had and fun by all!!
Slam Jones  [author] 11 Jun, 2019 @ 1:57pm 
I'll probably be looking into that in a few weeks when I'm done with this project. I think we can make something pretty awesome there :)
[DFC] Itnetlolor 11 Jun, 2019 @ 1:33pm 
I almost forgot. We can always go even smaller and go for Micro Machines cars and play sets.
Slam Jones  [author] 11 Jun, 2019 @ 12:08pm 
Nice! I've thought about similar ideas as well :) It would take a bit of work to scale everything up and make sure colliders are correct, but would be super cool once done. Reminds me of an old 2d Hot Wheels game I played back in the day that starts on like a table, then later levels you go outside and stuff. I loved it lol. It'll be a while 'til I'm done with this current project, but maybe someone else can work on maps like that ;)

Making maps can be difficult at first, but once you get the hang of it, it becomes relatively quick. If you've got the drive (no pun intended) to make something, then it can turn into quite a fun project :)
[DFC] Itnetlolor 11 Jun, 2019 @ 11:55am 
Neat. I gotta get around to making some maps and cars and such. I had some ideas in mind, like slot-car and Hot Wheels track pieces linked together; or taking place in a bedroom/living room or something. Micro-/Macro-Maps are always a fun theme to toy around with; provided proper scaling.

Hi! I currently do have a few parking garages in the city. I think I put a few ramps on the tops of them too, but haven't fully tested jumping them yet. I am running into an issue with the ramps in the though: when approaching the corners of the ramps, my car will sometimes sink in and wedge itself, like, INTO the ramp. It's really weird, (and I assume I just need to adjust the colliders) but once I've solved it, there will be more parking garages installed :)
[DFC] Itnetlolor 11 Jun, 2019 @ 10:06am 
Got any parking garages for some trick shots (to/from garage and buildings)?
Slam Jones  [author] 9 Jun, 2019 @ 11:48am 
@Xedstrong -- I think I figured out the problem :steamhappy: New update is out now! Let me know if this fixed the issue :)
Slam Jones  [author] 9 Jun, 2019 @ 9:00am 
Sorry you're not enjoying it! What do you mean by "do not allow to go normally?" I'll fix it if I can! :)
XEDDO25 9 Jun, 2019 @ 8:30am 
terrible map, these low asphalt polygons do not allow to go normally, fix it by the author

no luck here yet
:steamfacepalm:
5thDimensionZ 8 Jun, 2019 @ 3:56pm 
Naw... I took me a while.
Slam Jones  [author] 8 Jun, 2019 @ 3:55pm 
Nice! I hope I didn't make it too easy... :P
5thDimensionZ 8 Jun, 2019 @ 3:48pm 
I found one of the Easter Eggs!
Voxdoc 7 Jun, 2019 @ 8:23am 
Feel free... :steamhappy:
Slam Jones  [author] 6 Jun, 2019 @ 4:38pm 
Oh wow! I took a look through the list you posted on another thread, and those are some nice looking buildings :) I'll let ya know if I end up using any!
Voxdoc 6 Jun, 2019 @ 12:22pm 
I have about 300 commercial-residential buildings that I originally created for google earth (in sketch up) - if you would like to use. I'd be happy to export to whatever format you could work with. (if possible)
Voxdoc 6 Jun, 2019 @ 12:15pm 
I'll be looking! :steamhappy:
Slam Jones  [author] 6 Jun, 2019 @ 10:16am 
Thanks, I'm glad you'r enjoying it! :D I did take a lot of inspiration from GTA in general for the map.

As for Easter Eggs, I've got one or two in mind but haven't put 'em in yet ;)
Voxdoc 6 Jun, 2019 @ 8:48am 
The details are off the charts! Streets, street lights, billboards, buildings that you can drive in! Should we be looking for hidden Easter eggs?? (looks a lot like GTA- which is cool) Love it! Keep going!
Slam Jones  [author] 5 Jun, 2019 @ 10:36am 
Will do! I am always open to suggestions :)
Slam Jones  [author] 5 Jun, 2019 @ 10:34am 
Hahaha yes I've gone a little bit mad :P

So far I've spent about three weeks on this. I imagine at least three more weeks before I consider it "finished". :)
JURST9 5 Jun, 2019 @ 10:34am

JURST9 5 Jun, 2019 @ 10:15am
