ModNation Racers Kart Track and Mod Creation Discussion

[anaximperator]

So go on - what's the daftest thing you've done to ruin a mod/kart/track creation?

I ask because I pulled off a beauty yesterday. Laid the track, located an area for an ambitious shortcut using a sequence of rooftops, did all the prop placements including the very awkward and time-consuming positioning of multiple boost ramps on the roofs. I was about to set the breadcrumbs when I noticed something about the shortcut itself. The landing point back onto the track was almost a full lap behind its start point.

Scrapper!

Hmm. It would have to be accidently deleting a drivable platform in an area with many props in Stairway to Heaven v2 with a 1 hour time limit to finish it. I tried my prop placement glitch and it screwed all of the props in the area up. I started to panic, and that's why there is a platform slightly lower than the others... and it was too late to change. Whoops!

I once went into test drive, and it put me somewhere on the track I din't recognise. After about 1 minute of driving around the track aimlessly, still puzzled about the track, I realised I was driving THE WRONG WAY down the track! Epic Fail!

It would have to be the numerous times MNR froze upon selecting Road Styles or Place Props immediately after having finished paving the track. Oh, and when Advanced Edit takes time to change the track, I always get scared that the game will freeze.

Now I save every five minutes.

You sure you didn't do this on 'Hot Plains Drifter' too? Because I ran it in a full room earlier and was as surprised as anyone that I had won the race after what I assumed was just 2 laps. Turned out I'd somehow managed to get a 3 second lap...

my most embarassing mistake? hmmm, ah, remembered one, when i was creating my track, Zeta Quadrant Corridon-K,  i've created a Mega-shortcut, i think, the best ever, but, when i put that breadcrumbs arrows, it turned red!!! FFFFFFUUUUUU, that made me angry, i gave up in that day, but in the next day i made a different one. but.. not so great
