    No update needed for the race update. There will be an improved Beta 2 for this sometime in the next week or two.

    Don't quit making more area lol. Make as much of this city as possible or at least until you lose interest. Would be awesome to eventually have a couple square miles of city eventually.

    Ah looks awesome!! I think is the best map in-game, but I think it needs more map like the other side of the river stuff.

    Keep up the amazing work!!!

    In Beta 1 half the roads are completely featureless - once I've finished all the buildings I'll consider opening up the bridge and expanding into Southbank. It won't be in the Beta 2 though, or even the initial release probably.

    The reason I haven't lost interest in this is because it's not several square miles. It took me two solid days just to model and texture a 100m row of shops (post #138). Fortunately not everything's that dense with detail, but you still have to draw the line somewhere.

    Being a skyscraper fanatic I have to say your buildings are superb. Map is looking fantastic. My favorite level for staging multi-vehicle city wrecks bar none.:cool:

    Just wanted to add my kudos to the list of compliments on here. You have done an amazing thing here. There are only a couple of city maps available for BeamNG and this is definitely the highest quality option that I have come across. I can see checkpointed races in the future here and even a city sandbox element for the game's eventual Career Mode. This is my favorite map for BeamNG, hands down. I anxiously await the Beta2 release. Again, simply incredible work. :cool:

    I can't wait for Beta 2 release! I have always had a random interest in city maps and how cities are laid out and I'm so excited that someone is making a real city map for BeamNG. I want to create a city map so bad but I have never done 3D animations so I don't even know where to start modeling for BeamNG. Keep up the great work!

    Re: Riverside Expressway

    I have some kind of an error, if I load the map, the camera freezes, and cars won't spawn, I tried to restart physics, I tried to spawn new cars, but something is wrong.
    EDIT: Problem solved, I just ran the updater, and it fixed it

    The easy way is freezing and unfreezing the physics. That happens to me on all maps after I fall in the middle of the water

    Awesome job man, I live in Melbourne, Australia so it's nice to see people using something of Australia for something like this once in a while. :)

    Not sure if this is a bug, but the traffic light on the left of the picture is out.

    Not sure what the name of the road is, but I came off at the first motorway junction, then continued to the end of the slip road, turned left and failed at driving :p
    That was when I noticed this small thing.
