RaceAce {l Wrote}:Can you post the latest version? I want to try it.
I am sorry, if you are playing the latest version posted in this topic, you are already playing the latest version
. Since then I have mostly only played a bit with the look of the road barriers (I currently have not much free time).

I like it, too
charlie {l Wrote}:I don't like the skybox used. Due to the nature of the skybox, it makes the skyscrapers that are part of it look out of sync and out of scale with the actual 3D skyscrapers. They either need to be massively reduced in size (so they appear as distant objects only when looking down streets without an obscured view) or removing altogether.
You are right there, sooner or later I will have to change the skybox. Actually, the current one is not even a real skybox, it is just a picture that does not even tile properly, but I think it fits the track
.
samuncle {l Wrote}:Usually for this landscape effect you can put small building (typically in 1/16) to avoid the "skybox effect" far away from the player area.
Does this mean that the skybox only contains the sky and the buildings are cubes? I think this could work, but since we are in the middle of a big city I have the impression that this means lots of triangles and work
.
BTW, does somebody know where I can find some really high-res textures of skyscrapers at night that could be used for the buildings next to the road? Wikimedia contains lots of cool stuff, but none of the pictures I looked at had enough detail.
. I am very, very busy atm.
