    not bad by first post standards, but not very good by forgehub standards :\. you might want to redo some of the interlocking with the double walls before the start, they look kindof crooked

    ya agreed. id recommend going to look at other's maps and see what they did right and what they did wrong and try to improve from their mistakes (and urs). also, try to make the racetrack have an aspect of originality. most maps these days seem to just be turns and turns and more turns without any fun thing to it (at least on foundry). ive seen elevators and such, but jumps are also cool. experiment with that, or maybe with some shortcuts. think of mario cart, the pinnacle of racing games

    It looks good for a first map but the interlocking does need a little more work. I see potential in this map and i think u should make like a v2 or a better version of this map. Good job though.

    Everyone else here is judging on interlocking which they should not be doing. Sure interlocking is great for looks but what matters the most is the game play. I can't even give a review from the pictures seeing there is only 3 pictures which only give out a small section of the map. and to get away from your person in theater just press the Y button. Put some more pictures up please it would be very helpful

    The interlocking is not for just "looks". I think you have it backwards. The interlocking is what makes the ride feel smooth.

    I agree with dream the interlocking improves the flow and the looks of the map tremendously.

    ok hey...the map accidentally went under the crane, i wasnt really sure if it was gonna mess up the racing until my friend said." yo nate, you are goona get closelined going under that thing", it makes it kinda of like an obstacle...(not one that is on one of those crappy, dodge the stuff racetracks) but more of a prettier obstacle, not some barrel piece of **** in front of you... but this map is more of a fun one, so if you want a better looking one, there might be a v2.....its just supposed to be a round race track, like Dreams one on blackout...and to tell you the truth, i havent really seen any normal oval racetracks

    hey nice map. i would say that you are a very good forger. i would also venture to say this is your first race track. well its very good. i would say that if you spent a little more time on it, it would be a great racing map. nice job.

    Well let me start off by saying For a begginner this si good. There is not much interlocking. If you don't quite know how then you make the object spawn at start: no and the spawn time 180. Then you start a new round and put another object where the one that is not spawned yet is then save and end. When you start a new game they should be interlocked. Remember to start a new round wait for the object to spawn and then turn it to spawn at start: yes. Make sure to mark your objects that aren't spawned for flawless in terlocking. I see you might know how but this is to make it perfect cause thay look sort of crooked. Well thats a rundown. But for now 3/5. Maybe a v2 or a completley new race map is in line. Hope your here for a while send me a message for anything. Or my gamertag xpWn3r kiDx tAt thanks.

    One thing to remember, its better to bank the turns then leave them flat, mongeese don't drift very well. From my perspective, i think you need more pics. There is nothing wrong with showing every inch of your racetrack. (as long as there aren't too many duplicates)
