What WILL you make with a GPS enabled or very detailed track editor?

[ScottPuss20]

I quite literally have drawn a million racetracks, but I don't where I should make one using GPS-maybe Sandown

 

[Nuschel01]

I hope it will be possible to build A-to-B-Tracks and not A-to-A

 

[Nuschel01]

You've just made me think; Assuming we get a GPS feature, anyone in Paris fancy mapping the Rendezvous route? That would be very cool.
Don't know what I mean? You're going to love this: http://vimeo.com/m/34039780

Hopefully with the bins and one-too-many gear changes

There weren't too many gear-changes actually because the film was made with a Benz and the Ferrari-Sound is dubbed :S

If you listen though, you can hear the number of up and downshifts aren't in sync with each other.

Lets say the car is in "4th" it'll change down 3 times then change up 4 ten change down 3 then another 3 up then it holds then 2 up. It just doesn't add up

I'm thinking of making some sort of a long point-to-point style track. Similar to the Toscana sprint track in the GT5 Grand Tour special event but longer. The track will have sharp turns, huge elevations and a few jumps here and there.

Yep, I know

So it was just a Mercedes after all or what?

I want to make my commute to work. I want to see how quick I can really get there!

Theres an old Hillclimb track just 6 miles from Nürburgring wich still exists completely today.
You can even see the old startline !

Lots of pictures:

Hope they support .gpx file importation because I'm currently recording some routes.

Anybody know of a 3D visualizer for .gpx files?

I found this : http://forums.creativecow.net/thread/2/1046126

So they say you need a 3D program to convert gpx files in another format, so the 3d program can read the files and make them visible.

Another option and I believe it's already mentioned :

Various options to show your gpx files in 3D. Better option for the lazy ones... create your own gpx-mapping by editting, anything could be possible. I wonder what would happen to map something like this :

You could make it for rfactor using http://www.bobstrackbuilder.net/ you can also use satellite data, I know it ain't a gt6 put its cool to use and get your head around what it takes to make a GPS modelled track. You can use google earth to get height data length etc

@YukinoSuzuka
this looks massive, is this a K200?

 

[SLAMandRIDE]

what GPS program would we use?

 

[silverman_GT]

El Capitan anyone?

 

[StigBelcherStyl]

1. I'll go around my block and see how accurate it is and whether it takes into account altitude or geographic maping
2. If this is sucessful i will then atempt to replicate the mountain roads about 10 minutes away from where i live on Mt. Tamborine.
3. Then will visit my local tracks.
4. Then if that works i will atempt the work run through town and out to the country where i live.

 

[kolio]

My route to school, only because an awesome chicane I really do not want to try to attemp in real life

That being said, a few local roads and oval tracks nearby!

 

[LightningLord]

Make routes to certain places. Like school, a restaurant, etc. then stuff like driving on mountains and all of U.S. Route 50 for an endurance event.

But first I have to recreate my car in real life for the best effect...GT6 doesn't have my car.

What Car do you own?

Mine is a 2013 Holden Commodore SV6 in a manual Transmission, awaiting the day it is added to gt6.

Nice. I have yet to see a Holden in the U.S. The only "Holden" I see is the one with the Chevrolet badge on police cruisers. I think it's the Holden Statesman or something like that.

As for my car, it's a 4 door Honda Civic which does not exist in GT6.

What year? any engine specifics? on your model?

Heres a Picture of my model i'm quite lucky bought it 2 months ago demo model going to be quite broke for a while till it's paid off but it was so worth it.

 

[nascarfan1400]

Every NASCAR track on the circuit!

Orange! Nice car. And I would upload a photo of my car but my phone wants to be stupid and it doesn't let me upload a photo when there is clearly a "Upload File" button.

 

[GBalao888]

I'll recreate every track from WipEout Pure, WipEout Pulse and WipEout 2048. I really hope it's possible to make a roller-coaster track and I hope PD implements Mag-Strips for tracks.
(These tracks are best driven on a Red Bull "X" car)

 

[TRLWNC7396]

Charlotte.... For the 600 on Memorial day! That way we can do the triple!

 

[Harsk100]

I'll begin with Parque Municipal da Moita, where I lived.

Red indicates the track.
Green indicates in what places you can go out of track.

Actually, this track was for an Physical Education activity called "Corta-Mato". So, I got an idea to make this as track.

Warning: Sorry about the white parts, I made some mistakes... I tried to make it good. It is 2009 version, I'll work on 2014 version.

 

[silverman_GT]

My local racetrack, Sentul International Circuit

@silverman_GT
Not bad! looks both technical and fast
