Eastern Creek

Both Eastern Creek & Oran Park are amazing circuits & a credit to the creators. My brother used to race (YZ465 yamaha motocross bike) at Oran park club days many moons ago & has ridden a few ride days at Eastern creek, showed him a lap of each circuit & he was stunned at how realistic they are, especially the notorius "Flip Flop" (Oran Park) & the blind left hander at corporate hill.

Thanks again for these great Aus tracks.

Making major update for this track

filled in all the missing bits on the grandstand
Made all the trees and the power poles double sided

if u have rFactor they have made a brand new EC and OP Wink

best track models ive ever seen, done with laser scanning so everything down to the bumps in the road is accurate Cool

but i dont think GP500 could handle it lol

I saw a preview of tracks from Toca3 can these be converted
Hey Rez try making the trees for EC double sided it makes 200% improvement to the look of the track ,gives all the trees extra body

Was your the guide using Sugo as the modified track
If so I have that guide but it is only the process after the track is converted to a 3ds file ,which is the part i cant figure out ,I can get tracks from RFactor if thats a start

thats the easy part m8 Wink

you use 3DSimEd:
First Extract the 3d objects and textures
Tools > Expand
it can open archive files from rFactor, F1C, TOCA, GTR, and Nascar

...and then to convert to 3ds:
File > Import as Object(s) > and select all the extracted 3d objects
once they are loaded:
File > Save as .3DS > save to the same folder as the extracted textures
then there is the 3ds Options after you click Save, i usually uncheck both boxes so that the texture names dont get altered or anything like that Wink

I had the earlier version of Eastern creek a couple of years back, but the A.I line was non-existent. Has this been added, and is it available, or still in production?
Would be a welcome addition to the 1991 schedule, as Phillip Island wasn't on the real '91 list.
