Track Image Continuity

Right, as some of you may have seen with the Masters circuits - they all got new images up made from scratch. Discussed this with Mal and he gave me a green light to go ahead. So I'm planning to go hard at it for other tracks. The main idea behind this is that we have our 100% own track images and not borrowing images from other places. Also, it adds continuity to it. A lot of the other track images might have stuff others don't and so on so forth.

So with these ones - they will all be the same. Nice and uniform. Each one will have corner numbers, track direction and finish line. I've made a PSD file with necessary graphics if and when I get bored with this and someone else wants to take this on.

I also have a generator that produces the track from rFactor in a *.png format. So they are nice and crystal clear. Also with so many Gp4 and older tracks, that should hopefully allow me to generate a track map for every track we've raced on - and different versions. Take something like Hockeinheim, Spa, Silverstone etc that has been updated. I'll be updating with all layouts that we have raced on over the years.

I'm backing up the files so lets say someone down the line wants to add corner names or other fanciful shit. It'll be there.

Oh - I ain't numbering Nordschleife :P --Philip Cullen
