Tolly if it helps I can list the tracks to ignore, only about 50% of my races are worthy of "best of" titles. 3 I got good feedback from running with RRR yesterday were. "Sultans Of Swing" - Sultan only P2P "The Scenic Route" - Lap race using part of The Essex Serpent road - Similar but definitely not the same ! "Dock Head" - Bike only Dock race Ran with Deskjet, Jimmy, Darkskill and some DDZN all nearly gave thumbs up to all 3

the created by section doesn't state crew, just user name besides anything I made for serious racing is a RRR creation any of my silly races are DDZN creations PS - you finally signed up to the forum !!! Ah that's good, never knew that. Yeah I signed up Never had to sign up to 3 or 4 websites before to try and get the most out of a game lol How's the search going Tolly? I'll start trying to write down any good tracks I come across instead of racing/testing them and then not being able to remember the names later on. Raced a few of Ben's last night which were good so check him out if you haven't Ohhh and incase you've done all the races and didn't find any good ones, RRR's newest member has 91 published tracks for you to check.... lol

I never, ever said I had 91 tracks I think are suitable for you guys though. A few of my early ones I need to delete, and a few I need to improve with constructive criticism. I would suggest 'Dynamo', 'All Pilots Must Fly' and 'Baja Hangtime' as my 3 personal favourites, but they all contain a jump or jumps. 'Middle Park Momentum' is probably my favourite pure racing track, but if you asked me again tomorrow I would have different answers lmao. want to enduce some rage? Try my D1rty Sanchez Extreme Trials playlist. A cookie to anyone who makes it to the end without a DNF. Edited to add. Ben Millard's tracks that I ran last night are all impressive too imo. Although he does replay them too much imo ;o) I think I played 3 different ones - the short tunnel looper at the observatory - challenging for how short it is - would be chaotic with 16 though. One like Vinewood Rum - nice SINUOUS route, Mo is too fast on it though - and one through Vinewood named Monte Carlos Rally or something - very tight track, looks appealing to the eye with consistent props everywhere (love me a tyre stack) - so top work Ben. Nitty will tell you, for me to not criticise someones track IN ANY WAY, well, it must be damn fine.

Hit a milestone on Social Club. I uploaded my 101st job (100 races and one solitary DM). I'd been worried for some time that I would be limited to 100. I had the same worries at 69 jobs. Now I'm thinking, what with the amount of jobs some crews have made that there is no limit to number you're allowed to upload. Pretty fkn sweet. I can get rid of some older ones or rework them - played a few of my older jobs again recently and some of them are a little rough lol.

I think is great you guys are making a lot of content and I would like to try some out, but I am not going to sift thru over a 100 entries and try to bookmark them and race individually. I just don't have the time or patience.
I highly suggest you make some playlists and theme them per the type of content. i.e.: Super car tracks, off-road, city course, my favorites, etc. Then post links to the playlists.

i'm up for trying peoples tracks tonight.
Tolly's right you should make short playlists with maybe 3 or 4 races then we could go from playlist to playlist quickly from a crew lobby to cut down on the kick/loading screens 'cos they're starting to get on my titties

Good plan gents. I guess I need to split my list, it keeps growing. There is the superbike playlist of course, would like some more creator variety in there still. But mine, well there's 7 in it now and I've got another race cooking. I'll divide it into 2 lists of 4 once it's ready but here's the 7 race one anyway- My Bikes Yeah?
Be good to know which are the best ones for inclusion in the best of bikes list, just a couple from me would be fairer. I'll link to the twin set when done.

I ran the bike playlist last night and found it tough. Lots of alley's, narrow cut throughs, and barriers to knock ya down. I suppose that was the intent. I felt like I was going from one wreck to the next. Overall design is decent, but a little tight for my liking.

Post by Cuz05 on Feb 11, 2014 7:24:20 GMT
My race list Toll, or the best of? Mine, yeah, it is meant to be a challenge, particularly the city ones, the sort of thing that isn't supposed to be cracked in one go round. I feel it would get a bit boring on bikes otherwise. Tbf, I did think when I put those 5 LS ones together in one list that it was too much of one thing, I'd rather have a balance of challenge to entertainment. Do intend to simplify a couple of them, at least, its surprising the difference running a custom makes. Surely they weren't all wreck fests tho? Would certainly help if the like/dislike function was working, grrr....

Been looking at the maps and in the context of my 5 race playlists, I'll be making smallish edits on 4 of the 1st lot to make them more user friendly. Still aim to have them challenging to some degree and there's one I will be leaving as a stern test but don't give up on em just yet! I think several of the alleys out will make a big difference The 2nd lot of 5 aren't so difficult imo but one of em does need a tweak, the last one I made so only to be expected. Edited 7 of the 10 this afternoon, including the one I was gonna leave difficult Can't promise you won't crash on them or breeze round without a care but you should get a few less trips to the infirmary now. Was worth doing I think.

Made a silky smooth playlist for our enjoyment: Seriously SinuousFull of smooth flowing, curvy races. That's not to say there aren't a few tricky parts though I've limited it to 1 track per person. It has 6 tracks so far but I still need to add 1 by Skoader. If anyone know any other tracks that would fit please let me know

Looking good Ref....
Holy smokes, 4.53 mile lap!

Post by refuso on Feb 19, 2014 21:01:58 GMT
Lol, 1 lap takes around 2:30 in custom super so it's not too bad. I was thinking about limiting it to supers and bikes though lol. Maybe I'll just suggest it in the description. What do you think?
I think I'll try to change the PL order a little bit too to mix up classes each race

Right time to get Volume 2 produced !!
One entry per creator, please submit your Greatest work !! (only if not included in volume 1 !!)
Question, would you guys prefer a themed best of (for example best of Off-Road) or just a general best of ?
If Themed, I am open to anything bar GP's and Muscle as they have both been covered.

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmm.....
Ok everyone, the next week will be spent playing all my tracks to help me decide....
I think it should possibly be my bike one, Passing Through. It's approved, got the most likes and a couple people picked it out in my bike lists..... Unless any of the car ones stand out to anyone. That's if any of my humble creations are worth inclusion. *fishes for compliments*
Worth a look at older ones from inactive members or not?
Don. Feltzer Rally Reverse!

Are the GTAF judges corrupt enough to approve one of my GP tracks if i posted it on the forum?
I like playlists what mix it up a bit, cars/bikes on/off road, sometimes a 10 race playlist with a theme gets a bit too samey

General. We need a vol 2 at the very least and we have plenty of excellent tracks to choose from since vol 1 was released. My only gripe with a 10 race volume is it can be a bit daunting committing to a 10 race PL sometimes so splitting them into volume 1 parts A and B etc may work better. If all team RRR could be encouraged to add these pl's from SC we would have a manageable library of races that we can enjoy and become somewhat familiar with as opposed to everyday yet another excellent new track that likely won't be seen again. We have the s**t, we just need to get it together.

I guess this is my best, Gangnam Style rsg.ms/QMlMHxIt’s GTAF Approved and been played more than any of mine. I agree with swifty, variety is the spice of life.

Post by nittydon on Apr 25, 2014 16:15:24 GMT
Variety it is then, thanks for the support. Happy with Feltzer Rally Reverse being my nomination, also happy to break this down into 2 or 3 - 5 race playlists. So Vol2 Part 1 Feltzer Rally Reverse Passing Through Gangnam Style And GP- whatever old man Swifty is rattling on about !! Part 1 needs one more race, first reply gets it

Part 1 needs one more race, first reply gets it Oh dear oh dear. Some people just don't know who's lurking. So to make them be more cautious in future I'm going with my 'Half Pipe'. The first version. With the taller towers and unaligned props

Only joking Right time to get Volume 2 produced !! One entry per creator, please submit your Greatest work !! (only if not included in volume 1 !!) Question, would you guys prefer a themed best of (for example best of Off-Road) or just a general best of ? If Themed, I am open to anything bar GP's and Muscle as they have both been covered. So since it isn't themed we can have a sprinkling of GP and Muscle tracks in? Here are a few off the top of my head that I like: Worthsclio - Grapeseed GP Deejay - Tongva 8 Track Cuz - ... (The latest bike one he made) GP Swifty - Dune Buggy GP

For me if its going to be a best of, it can't be themed. Should be a good mix up Cheers Ref for putting mine forward, beat me to it, that was my suggestion But it needs to be the Grapespeed GP (tyres) one.
