I don't know exactly what you mean by the texture shifting but flyrawgui gives you exactly what you create, no slicing and spacing - which is for terrain anyway.

This is what I got with Traxx:

Couple of weird texture bugs

So I'm having some trouble re-texturing models at the moment. I've made the 256x256 texture I need, and load it into Traxx to convert it to RAW and ACT, but whenever I do this Traxx shifts it across about 10 pixels, leaving me with a mis-aligned texture. It's started doing this after about an hour ...

Oh hey guys are we saying thanks to everyone?

Honestly I think it's unreasonable to expect everything to run smoothly when you're using a 10 year old game on a brand new operating system. Personally I've not had a single problem, even with Vista x64, but the vast majority of games, even those from 2 or 3 years ago, flat-out refuse to work with ...

512 is the max, and I'd completely forgotten about that limit. So I guess the only way this could work would be re-using textures. Ah well.

Heh, didn't know it would be that many. Well Slice60 has an output limit of 999 textures so if I split it up into 35 pieces I'm good to go.

By the way, was there ever a work-around for the visibility limit? I'm trying to use this a sort of graphical benchmark/free-roam area, not a pure race ...

Alternative to Slice60?

Working on converting a section from Half-Life 2 into MTM2. Since it's pretty complex I've made a huge image to paste once to create the whole texture sequence. Like in the tutorial on the website, only much larger. It's 12360 by 10020 pixels. Since it's so ridiculously massive, Slice60 can't handle ...

It wouldn't be anything by the original artists. Either it was made in house (that's a good bet), or it's "stock" or "production" music, which is music made by studio musicians and is then available at lower cost to media, production, game, etc. companies.

Yeah, even if there's a very obvious ...

MTM1 Soundtrack

Just something I've been wondering about for a while. What are the songs on the MTM1 CD based on, and what are they called?

Track 1 - ?????????
Track 2 - Similar style to Joe Satriani, especially Surfing with the Alien and Crushing Day , not specifically based on either of those though.
Track 3 ...

I'm not sure about the section on top of the hill, the banking and rhythm bit. It's quite smooth but I don't know if it really fits there.

I've started drawing up plans for the scenery now as well.

Telegraph Road Raceway 2007

m

I needed something to do when I was bored over Christmas, so this seemed like a good idea. It's another dirt track, much like the Dust Bowl.

I chose the name because I'm a huge Dire Straits fan (I know I'm not the only one here. ) and it seems like a plausible race track name. This circuit ...

I think it's down to the amount of computer trucks you use, and the complexity of the track.

That track with the train looks like an early version of Arizona. The last shot uses the same textures, and is clearly unfinished or never released.
