ModNation Racers Kart Track and Mod Creation Discussion

[mini_schnauzer63]

Hi,

If you are reading this, please download my new track, Rally Resort, so you can give me feedback (and make me feel good, lol). Thanks in advance!

I’m new here so, hi everyone! I’ve been using the track creator for a while and finally think I’ve got a good track. Before I begin, though, I have a few things to say.

Firstly, the idea of me posting this track is so I can get feedback and improve my skills. I realise this isn’t the best track ever made, but I put a lot of time and effort into it, so don’t just say it sucks. If you can tell me what I did well and what I didn’t that would be really helpful (please race on it before you give me feedback, though).

Secondly, is my track now in the creation area of this website? If not how do I get it in there?

Also, this course is supposed to be quite challenging, so don’t complain about it being hard unless it is really TOO hard.

Finally, I would like to thank atheistsw for his amazing tutorial on making a visually appealing track. It was really helpful! Now, without further ado, I present...

Rally Resort!

 

 

There is danger right from the start as you jump through windmills and land on a sandy path partly covered by water.

 

Then you have to make choices: Which path will you take, will you go for the item pods at the unprotected edge? (Those black signs are chevrons, I took the photo at the wrong time, lol).

 

 

As you exit the sandy path, a twisty road with wall rides emerges. Make sure you take a look at the farm as you drift past.

Then enter a tunnel...

 

And come out to cheers from the crowd!

Take the hairpin past the stands and enter the city, where you take another hairpin...

And zoom up a mountain, before jumping down.

 

Finally, race past the unprotected cliff face (possibly going for the item pod at the edge) and the wind farm before coming in at the finish.

P.S. Unfortunately, you can’t see most of the item pods from these pictures, but they are there!

Pretty good Track overall.

Visually interesting.

Quite Technical.

Since You left it Remixable I went ahead an made changes I felt were needed (rather than try to describe them in text here).

Didn't do much really just some elevation changes and moved a few signs off the roadway.

The first shortcut was underwater figuredYou intended that to increase the difficulty, I raised it. maybe make it narrower or some flame vents or some other trap to give it a risk factor since the benefit from the shorter run is minimal.

The last jump area before the finish is a bit over the top for My taste but hey You can't spin if You don't jump.

I will take it down after You get a look at it just send a mesage or a post here after You have checked it out.

Hi,

Thanks for that, it's exactly why I left it remixable. Will check it out soon. However, I was trying with the first shortcut to have to underwater, but not too much so you don't sink (Did you sink?). I agree though, there were a few problems with signs and height which I was struggling with so thanks a lot for that! I'm making a new cource called skate park, which will be up in a few days, so if you could test that too (I'll tell you when it's up) that would be really helpful.

Have looked at and the new rally resort is up, so some of the pictures in my origional post might be slightly inaccurate! Also, how do I get my course onto the creation area of this website. 

Thanks for all your help Voo!

You need to block out your track. Read atheistsw's guide to understand, because the 5th pic is hideous.

[mini_schnauzer67]

Hi abc, I just want to clarify this was my first serious track made over a month ago, and I have much improved since. I now use blocking, as well as other things. I also saw you commented on canopy ride, my second oldest track... please test my newest track, 'of water and ice', and look out for more tracks on mini_schnauer67, not mini_schnauzer63 my old account. More tracks will be coming soon!
