    Lunar Speedway

    Lunar Speedway
    Created By: x DREAM 76 x

    Gametype Supported: Battle Tracks
    Recommended Players: 6-12

    Lunar Speedway is a banked oval track on blackout. This map is a blast with some friends or can be also used in a more competitive tournament setting. I wanted to try make a map that would be simple but also strategic in it’s nature. The interlocking on this track took all my skill and patients. I had to actually redo one of the banked turns because it didn't line up the first time. It really was a tough map to make. I love a challenge though. I always wanted to make an oval track. In the past I have seen several oval tracks, mostly on Foundry. The problem that I realized about making an oval track on Foundry is they are always to small due to the cramed nature of the map. In order for an oval to work properly for either Battle Tracks or RACETRACKS game variants, the lap time must be at least 10 seconds. I was lucky, Lunar Speedway turned out to be 10 1/2 seconds. Just enough to work when using the two official racing variants that are currnetly available. I am pretty happy with the way the map turned out. It takes some skill when racing in large groups. Please come back after you check out the track and rate and comment. Have fun and see you on the tarmac!

    this map looks very plain but it looks like you took a great amount of time interlocking everything because it looks very neat. the cheat proof finish is also good. if i may i would suggest making jumps and other areas to it because going around in circles all the time does get kind of boring so try adding a new type of element of gameplay to this like maybe lets say add a huge jump and dropoff and make zigzaged corners. oh and your link is not working so please fix it so i can download and write an even better review of this.

    Edit: i see the link now thanks for fixing it.

    Edit: please do not link to your fileshare link it to the map itself because forgehub rules specify not to link to your fileshare

    Edit: my bad i clicked the wrong link so forgive me on that. but still please dont link to your fileshare

    Thanks.. Well, it's a tournament style Nascar track. I Purposely made it this way. I did not want jumps on this one. I always wanted to make an oval that would be fun and still competitive. I am sure there will be a lot of fans to the track. Especially people who enjoy draft style racing. Thanks for all the great comments guys. Keep um comin! I will inbed more pics tomorrow.
    Oh PS.. I have another track called Lunar Eclipse that you might enjoy. It has more crazy parts like you say!

    This map could actually be successfully turned into to a tournament due to the amazing interlocking skills and floating.
    I really like the looks of this map good job

    Good to see you on FH finally. Hope this turns out to be a good way for you to get your maps shown off.

    Anyway, this race track looks gorgeous. I can't believe how much time you spend getting these things so perfectly put together. Obviously, this is a simple one, but the floating aspect makes it more interesting in game, I'm sure.

    Nice work, as always.

    This is the best superspeedway I have ever seen. I have never seen one on blackout, only on foundry, which can be good, but not great, there often too small. Also, I like how this map is a simple race map. Now, I'm a good driver (lol I once was about to hit a line of 4 teammates and as able to spinout (360's) through the gap, all while going at full speed, like a Die Hard or Mission Impossible Movie, LOL, had to brag.) but i really like these maps where I can just have fun with my friends without the impending fear of falling off.
    I really like your interlocking and your geomerging with the air (lol).

    when I get on this weekend I will definetly download.
    999,999/1,000,000 ( took away one cause I'm in a bad mood :( lol)

    Love,

    Bah! Someone beat me to the punch by making a race track on Blackout! Now mine won't seem as epicly original as before! *waves fist*

    Nice work on the track, I can tell that a lot of effort was put into building it. It takes time and patience to save and quit so many objects....not to mention interlocking them perfectly.

    There really isn't too much to say about the layout, it's pretty straight forward. Just out of curiousity, how many objects did you have left once the map was finished?
