Test Build Alpha v.0.1.13

Hello, hello everyone,

and welcome back to Targa Florio!

I hope you guys are safe and in good health.

Last month, 4 of my family members got covid and had to do self quarantine. My mother had the worst symptoms  and it was a bit tense during the first few days. But everyone is all right now and recovered well. I didn't do PCR test but also doing self quarantine for safety. Everything is back to normal-ish now :D

Yesterday, one of my friend Michi told me about the news that Floriopolis is gonna get knocked down for the new bypass that is going to be build there! 

That's just such a shame that Sicilian govt are not seeing it as a heritage. I know the bypass would definitely be very useful for the region, but there's got to be another solution around destroying the Floriopolis! :(

Here's the link to the tweet;

I really hope they reconsider the plan :(


Massive thanks to GPLaps who made a video about this track. Great video, and we really enjoy watching you drive around the Targa Florio! :D

And of course we really appreciate your feedback. We will keep working to improve the track in any way possible to reach the quality that this track deserve

One of the things that GPLaps mentioned was about railguards, and most of the update this time is coincidentally, about railguards placements. 

Indeed, back in the 60s and 70s, there are much less railguards than now. At first, we placed the railguards based on present day placements as at that time, it was the most credible data. But they were always meant to be updated as our research continued.

So far, we've updated the railguards placements from Floriopolis all the way to km 22.3, around the Sclafani junction.

Sure enough, there are way less railguards now. This really shows just how dangerous this roads back then. and it also means that I am going to crash way more often into the grass hahaha

there are also updates on the physical mesh and track limits, closing some of the gaps, and we're polishing some of the buildings as well. Next we will start working with Collesano textures, as well as finishing up Campofelice.

Here is the track update version 0.1.13 

and if you're experiencing crash during loading, please use this config without train animation 

the crash was caused by the train animation which is not supported by older version of CSP

also, come on over and join our discord to meet all the other Targa Florio Fanboys out there lol: https://discord.gg/dbMM5Hf


Well that's it for this time. 

Stay safe, stay Healthy, and Thank you always for your support

Cheers!

Amazing, thank you for another update! My family was in isolation through most of January, so glad to know you're through to the other side and hopefully no long lasting symptoms. Great news about Collesano being next on the list; if you can make it close to the beauty of Cerda I'll be blown away :)

Congratulations on this amazing piece of work! I was so inspired by GPLaps video that I decided to make one of my own showcasing some different light and weather.
