Thermalito 2023 Release Preview
🕑 Added 2023-10-27 18:56:26 +0000 UTCHey everyone, I am excited to share with you all the first chance to drive Thermalito 2023!
This is by no means the ‘complete’ version. There are still areas where the surrounding scenery needs work, The track ‘feel’ is not final either.
Here is the download link.

However, there is lots to take in here, from the layout itself, to the Dam, the surrounding water, custom pit buildings. Lots has been completed!
There is an AI line created by DDF racer himself, so you can challenge his racing line, several sets of replay cameras are also already included.
it is not quite as far as I would hope it to be, due to personal reasons, this also has meant the Q/A video has been delayed. So, I will be working extra hard in the next week or so to get it in a better state for a public release very soon!
Thanks again to DDF for running the kickstarter to fund the project! You can see more of his content here.

just in case anybody missed the last post about this track here is the summary from the previous post…
“For those who are unaware, I'm working working with Daniel Finney of the DDF Racer Youtube Channel on bringing a track he has designed to life. The circuit is based on real roads, with some slightly imagineitive inerpretation. The layout for the track crosses through the Thermalito hydroelectric dam, not once but twice on two different layouts.
This project has been a blast to work on so far. It is quite different from what I usually do. As you will have seen I basically make real tracks as close to reality as I can get them. Or I will make up a 'fantasy' circuit myself. So, working on a project that does not exist in real life, but is a design by somebody else has been an interesting challenge.”

yo yo yo. This is a cool project. I hope it gets some light fixtures along the track later on A few things initially that you might already know about, there's a water stream in front of the dam building that doesn't clip for me, so I can see it everywhere, and it seems out of place too. and there's also two blue spotlights* in that area also

Loving it! Great layout and visuals, challenging AI, nice set of cams...also seems to work well with different types of grids. Can't imagine how good this is going to be when finished if it's this good now!
