    Default High Quality Tracklist

    What is it
    This is what we found when we were searching for tracks during the past weeks, months and maybe even years. These are the best trackversions there are on the web. Some of them are not even on the web anymore because they were forgotten, deleted or replaced with newer (layout) but less well made tracks.

    Do we already know / own some of these tracks?
    In some ways: Yes. For example the Laguna Seca track of Com8 we used is included. Simply because it is the most accurate AND best looking version out there. Despite that, I edited GDB and SCN files though to make them "a new track".

    Which changes exactly did you make?
    Well, to be honest you wouldn't call me a track-modder or editor, so not much. But all tracks from this install will be sorted by Country -> City -> Circuit in your rF menu. So especially when you got a new installation, delete all standard rF tracks and ONLY include these from the list, you'll probably will have the cleanest and most accurate Trackdatabase ever seen on any racing simulation ever. No, I am not making this up, some may have realized yet that I am a fanatic of an ordered system and strukture, so even though this is very simple modding, it is effective .
    Other than that, i also changed Sky-Textures for most of the tracks, especially on all of them who had the default rF-Skytexture which looks just jorrid and still uses more FPS than a bigger one (because rF has to rescale the small rF-default texture for detailed/long tracks).
    There was also the target of getting as much corporate-ISI-design loadingscreens both for menu and actual loading together as possible, I just failed on the all new circuits like Singapore or Valencia Street Course as noone ever bothered to do some of these.

    Are they all good for league/event usage?
    Probably not, but that is to be tested though. You'll realize that some tracks like Road America look about 20million times better than the one we used in the CMS last season, but it still puts out more FPS than the crappy looking one. Some other though are very hungry for graphics - like the new Singapore, but it is the best roadcourse you'll ever find for Screenshots/Videos.

    Will the list be updated?
    Yes it will. I am going to upload them within the next days step by step so the list will be growing. Depends on my web-connection though as with larger tracks it'll take a while.

    Where is the list then?
    Erm... right... almost forgot that one. Here it comes... wait for it...

    Problem with ZIPs is they are much bigger than RARs, not to mention 7z. The upload site I prefered here is limited to a filesize of 110 MB.

    All in one is hopeless with my bandwith, it would take at least 6 hours to upload it and also there is the problem I don't know a site which allows such big files for upload either.
    There are one or two but the files get deleted after 72 hours anyway. Useless so sadly :/

    We hope we use some of these Tracks for the World Division LMS
    But I think not.
