    Map Title: Snowy Pass
    A fun and easy track on Avalanche

    Download Map
    Download Gametype

    Description:
    This is my new racetrack that i made on Avalanche called Snowy Pass. This map took me many hours to complete, mainly because of slope, which required a lot of interlocking, floating, and tweaking. As far as I know, it is uncheatable and has an anticheat system that you can see in the picture named jump. Snowy Pass is a fairly easy track that is easy to follow. This track is good for a beginning racer, but is also good for experienced drivers. Anybody will have a fun time on this track. However, the hardest part is the probably the slope. If you do happen to fall off of the slope, you must go back and retry the cannon again. After riding down the slope, you go towards a bridge that goes across the straightaway in the beginning of the track. Following the bridge is the path into the man cannon room. Here, you drive into the man cannon into the goal area to complete a lap. When you complete the lap, you drive out of the room and return to the beginning again. I hope you have a fun time on this track and please remember to rate and comment after you dl. Also if you have any suggestions or find anything that needs fixing please tell me so I can make those changes!!

    I think I know what your saying. You're probably looking at the double boxes that make up the borders. I didnt really interlock them unless it was necessary. You dont actually race on those boxes if thats what youre thinking. 95% of the race takes place on some part of the actual map and not objects placed there.

    It looks like you used the whole map on avalanche, but I don't really like using the man cannons. Nice job with the map. The man cannons are just my personal opinion though.

    Sorry, from the pictures, this map looks VEARY messy. If you spend an extra hour cleaning it up, it goes a long way.

    I agree that it still looks a bit messy in the pictures. But you could clean it up and make it a nice Racetrack.

    The description explains the map very well.The overall idea is very nice but I have some critisicm/suggestions.The anti-cheat system was very intelligent and handy.The look of the slope looks a but sloppy (But I thank you for interlocking unlike some people that don't bother.To make this map look much better this is what I have in mind.
    1.Allign most of the shield doors in the 3rd picture by S&Q'ing them straight.
    2.In the 4th picture the slope looks very sloppy including the surrounding barrier items.To Make it look sleeker and nicer turn the bridges upside down so they don't have those annnoying ledges on the ends.Then try to make a pretty straight barrier around it out of double boxes or your choice (but try to interlock them).And you can keep the shield doors but like I said before allign them.

    I know my wall of text is pretty boring but it would relly increase the look and play of your map.

    So this map looks really fun to race on and you get a 8/10 ,but if you fix up those things you will get 10/10 and a cookie.

    Thank you for your suggestions, I am probably going to start working on a V2 to please the people who care about the looks and not the actual gameplay. The actual gameplay of the track is great and just because the looks arent perfect doesnt mean it isnt a good track. I hate when people dont dl a track because of looks over gameplay. I raced with 5 others and we all had a great time and nobody cared about the looks.

    Its very hard to make a neat racetrack on Avalanche ( I know, I have made 2 ). |Interlocking on this map for a rack is not worth it IMO. I like racing maps, and I am going to download and try this one.
