..trying to save this mess of a track: California Coast from GRID.
Attached is the full track including my update.

First version, at least, a bit enjoyable:

As always please do not share the files.

Hi Mike. Could you please add a starting line and starting grid to this track? So we can race against the AI. And maybe in the different direction too (uphill/downhill). By the way: There is a 2-way-traffic-layout for the trackk on RD: https://www.racedepartment.com/downloads/traffic-layout-for-california-coast.43661/

ok nice. i did not see that yet, i am also not a blender expert. i only have seen the dozens of materials on the track, as i have writen before.

I tore this thing apart in blender to find out why its so heavy... the trees... OMG.. they are made up from dozens of planes each. I dont know blender well enough yet, but i am going to write a script to "replace objects" to put in lighter 4 or 6 plane trees for another track and will look at this, if those trees are replaced i think this track will be half its weight for no negative impact.

yes i know. but to delete something is not the way i want to go. The main reason, why the track has bad performance is because the author did WAY too much materials.. nearly on every object a new material. Perhaps i can fix this soon, by copying only one material for each object copy. But i guess that will be some work...

edit the models.ini, and remove the two sections calle ALPHASHIT, basically the trees are insanely heavy for some bizarre reason, once tyoy dump them track is very light and good performance in VR, and honestly I dont notice they are missing

Too bad. Tried it out and it looks great and the road is awesome! But the performance is terrible, worse performance then LAC and SRP etc. Sucks that it is in such a bad shape. Reminds me of the two awesome sprints in PC2.

Hey Jasper! Welcome aboard!! THANK you mate! Sorry for that, now the file is part of my page. But i have to say, this track is not really fixable in complete for me in the next time. There is too much corrupted and badly made from the original author, to fix this fast.

Hey Mike, this link is expired. Could you re-upload it?

Jasper Opperman
