I've never used the KS Editor - I've opened it up and it looks like the most ridiculously limited program, but then again, maybe once files are loaded it would make more sense to me. Anyway, sorry that I can't help you, but if I were you I would make a post in this thread: What Are You Working On? it's a general purpose thread for modders to show off WIPs, ask for help or ideas or testers, etc... if you do post in there I would address @Lilski - he is a track making guru...as is @fat-Alfie and some others. I'll bet they have an answer for you immediately.
Yeah nothing really shows up in there until you load an FBX file, at which point it gets far more complicated trust me lol. Cheers for the suggestion, I might have to do that. I kind of didn't want to mention it over there, as I'm not sure if people will be grumpy that I'm editing a track without permission from it's original author. I definitely don't plan on making the track available to download, or anything like that, it's purely a private edit just to get rid of a few really outdated textures and adjust the shaders to make it look reasonable. It's an old rF1 rip, complete with original textures and everything is insanely bright, making it kind of unplayable.
I replaced the road textures with new ones that, while also basic, look a lot better, and the grass with higher detail textures, but the best changes were making everything less reflective, and adjusting shaders for literally everything so the track and surroundings look more natural in all times of day. It looks a lot better now, certainly not up to KS standards, but at least looks reasonable. It just sucks that the game now isn't picking up the timing objects.
Anyway, I guess I'll have to head over to RD and ask really nicely, after explaining that I'm definitely not changing the track to offer it for download lol.
