Version 1.0
A large playground packed with dirt, mud, and asphalt courses, jumps, loops, carkour, and more. Nearly every jump has a landing that can be done without harming the vehicle, and nearly every lap course has a Joker lap. There is plenty of exploration and challenge for hours of entertainment, and almost entirely AI supported for traffic, races, and more.
I have used this online using BeamMP with friends for a lot of good times, and figured I would finally share it since I don't think I will be returning to editing it anytime soon. If something major is broken with the mod please let me know and I will address it.
This only uses West Coast USA assets, and is very dense in terms of content. The fog has been pulled in to compensate and provide a relatively lag-free experience nearly everywhere while also being able to see the obstacles in front of you.
Nearly every course supports AI, and the AI is always restricted to that course. The default starting area has a large endurance course with 3 routes that provides a nice racing experience with some real upsets late game. I recommend starting with a suite of basic vehicles to start and progress from there. Also fun for online racing with friends with no resets.
The only other spawn point I have created is on a dirt track where I first started creating this map. This is a wonderful dirt sprint track that you can rip in your sunburst for laps, and even get in some sneaky passes if you are lucky.
There is a full suburban island great for street races with some nice sharp corners and long straights. The height shift really follows the west coast vibe and is also filled with hidden jumps.
A long drag strip with a massive jump at the end, including a points system for distance. Tons of fun with the rocket bus as you can overshoot the final platform.
River races for new water faring vehicles (or electric if you are a bottom dweller).
And swamp races for those snorkels.
A challenging yet fair Carkour course. I recommend the default Gavril D as many obstacles require that wheel base. You can also cheat, but hey, that's on you. Checkpoints are marked with checkered markings on the ground if you feel like you need resets.
There are drift courses on the ground:
And one up a mountain:
A section for Gymkhana events:
And another for going up or down the mountain through a crazy loop course:
There is tons more to discover, I haven't even mentioned the no-engine mountain race, the downhill mudslide, the dirt endurance track (with shortcuts), or the many other courses available.
Happy smashing,
-Bob

Thanks for the review (and playing my map with Camodo)! I clearly need to watch your tutorials, I have pretty bad frame rates with the view distance as... expanded... as you set it. Wish the Forest object had better LOD controls, my blender skills are trash.

Can confirm I had a similar issue testing the download from the resource hub. I'll attempt a re-upload.

I appreciate the review! It lags a bit for me too (hence the fog) on an i9 and 3080, mayhap someone more skilled than I can give me a trick or two to help with culling.
Re: The pond... I was running out of ideas and getting sick of aligning buildings. Think of it as city juice!
