  • Welcome to my track tutorial series. Hopefully these tutorials will help you get involved in making tracks, and if you already are hopefully you'll be interested in some of my methods. Over the series I'll be making a replica of Maggiora, the MXGP version (2015-ish). I'm going to cover importing replica terrain, using L3DT, using GIMP, using the MXB track tools and also how to get your track into Blender and how to get your objects out. Please subscribe to my channel to keep up to date and please like if you've enjoyed this video or found it useful.
    Part 1 - In this part we'll be taking a basic look at how the track development folder works, how the in game track folder works, and how to get a track in game.
    If you've found my tutorial series useful, enjoy my custom content and want to contribute, please feel free to donate. I do all this for free but obviously it takes a lot of time.

I'm a bit of a do it yourself, bang your head against the wall trying to figure it out type so Hahaha this was a great start to let me know the general flow of renaming things and what sequence. I'm really interested in the textures. I've got the height map part down, I work in Leveller/Photoshop I just need help with understanding how to lay the textures out for the map.

    lol I'm literally stuck at the first hurdle.
    Hi mate. Do you know of any reason why the TRH and MAP files wouldn't generate after running the .bats?
    I have terrained & tracked files in the main folder.
    Renamed everything (trh map centreline) in note++ (several times) using uppercase, lowercase. no spaces etc
    Tried to keep it simple and named everything testtrack like you have. But the .bat files run, but produce nothing. I've done it exactly as you've shown and as in the readme but get nothing.
    Any ideas? I feel like its a windows or program setting blocking the process.

    • @starfox_wr-45e93
      @starfox_wr-45e93 4 года назад

      Ok I think I sorted this.
      Running the process as administrator seemed to fix it. I can't replicate it so can't be 100% sure, but's that's all I did different, and haven't had to run as admin or had the problem since.

    @ultim8insannitee 4 года назад +1

    @TFC I have mirrored your pt. 1 tutorial twice now and the track still does not show up in game. The only thing that I see that is different is that your two .EDF files (background & gate) open with an unknown program while mine is labeled as opening with blender. They are both however .EDF files, same as yours. Not sure if this has any effect or not.

    • @TFCMods
      @TFCMods  4 года назад +1

      Hey dude sorry I have no idea.. It doesn't matter what program is associated with a file, it doesn't change the file itself. It seems like 1 out of 50 people have trouble and my only guess is its a permissions thing. Best thing to do is post on the forum and ask PiBoSo directly. Sorry I can't help more.

UPDATE: Two things at play here, I noticed that I labeled my desktop folder with a space (you advised not to) and I replaced both track tools and example track files with the newer versions at the bottom of page 2 in the forums thread. One of the two, if not both of those revisions worked! Thx for the quick response and making these tutorials!

      Good question man.. Which is your home track? To make Ironman took me about 3 months of on and off work. To make other tracks has taken less time. Depends how much quality you want to give it and what you want out. What some people can do in a week might take others a day. Really hard to estimate.
