Mapping "Zahara de la Sierra" (new GT6 track)

[diegorborges]

Holy @#$@&¨#%$!!!!

I've just watched 3 minutes of the video and I want this track in my veins.

Beautiful track. I counted 5 jumps, the 4th one being the only one that could cause problems.

No pit lane... :worried:

There are lines leading into a wall at the end, there's a large space to the right of the track. It's there.

my first thought about background noise: what have they been drinking?!?

and about the track: faster than I expected, not really tight driving conditions (like Targa Florio was in the past)

mumble mumble

ps: thanx a lot for this cap @TurismoBad

 

[diegorborges]

Nice bridge @ 8:55 and tons of good places for photoshoots.

That sound effects in menu reminds me of old GT games

"Sierra's Special Event":

Quick Match:

3 events on 'Sierra Time Rally' (maybe 3 different modes) :

Amazing pre-race animation:

'Full bar' before the 'checkpoint sign':

'Empty bar' after the 'checkpoint sign':

my theory about some kind of checkpoint system and this bar thing on the mini-map wasn't that wrong after all

 

[Furinkazen]

Just hoping it is online available...

After watching the video through (and suffering many, many mangasms), there does appear to pit lane, just blocked off. Several jumps too, but none seem to severe. Makes me want this a whole lot more.

Was amusing seeing him lose it passing the 8C.

That would be the among the worst decisions they could make. As in not allowing online.

To expand on the pit road evidence, it says PIT with an arrow twice on the road.

So gorgeous!

 

[Beat the Beat]

Nice bridge @ 8:55 and tons of good places for photoshoots.

Yes those two big bridges were a surprise, I was expecting some sort of bridge in that region, but that part was lost in the gaps between the replay videos.

I can't wait to drive this!

Though I do wish it had more slower corners.

 

[Robbks]

I like what I'm seeing...
Apart from at least 4 BIG jumps

They don't seem too bad, except for the one he spun out on passing the 8C.

I can already tell that Sierra will will be the new Nurburgring. A nice, flowing track with sheer scale.

This cannot come soon enough. I do wish there was a city section but that's probably for GT7.

I NEED THIS TRACK

@fortbo

Well here's your Zahara!

 

[play3man]

So what do you think guys? When will be 1.12 released?

 

[Robbks]

I think this shows 3 different cars

the GTO he picked and 2 others

 

[BOSS_335]

Please PD announce maintenance! I can't handle the wait anymore.

 

[Panoz]

@fortbo

Well here's your Zahara!

I guessing @fortbo might have fainted since he haven't made a post yet.

 

[Downhill Dino]

The one at 9:20 could be terrible for faster cars.

 

[DSkywalker01]

So what do you think guys? When will be 1.12 released?

Tomorrow. The big updates seem to come on Tuesdays.

 

[Robbks]

It's Tuesday already here in Aus/ Japan....
you US guys are always behind the times..

 

[Downhill Dino]

How is the track then one from the future?

 

[fortbo]

👍👍

 

[fagnerpc]

The green thing on the hud is a 'traffic counter' (or 'overtake counter') - if you crash into a car, you will lose part of your progress
counter on 8 @05:04

oops... back to 1 @05:06

wasn't expecting this kind of 'special event' on GT6 after the FIA's deal, but is a welcome change

Hmm I still thinks its releasing tomorrow. All the other updates that were announced and dropped on tuesdays were always a couple mins pass mindnite tuesday mornings so...

Trees don't really take much space up, they're mostly just instances of the same object or sometimes just a vertical wall with a repeating texture along it. Even the course maker tracks had hints of big forests in the distance in Eifel and High Fens.

Course maker didn't use a photo texture for the surrounding landscape, but if you imagine it did, they could look very similar.

Well then your saying that it only looks like course maker because if course maker looked like Zahara it would look like the Zahara track, because the grass is the only thing it has in common. And it doesn't matter if its the same object repeated, it still takes up file space.

In Europe too, but fact, that PD didn't announced the maintenance yet is a bit strange

Wormholes...

ouch, my head hurts thinking about astro physics again..
