Margh Norway's Stages
lluuiiggii
Nice to see Interlagos converted. It's great how much of the feeling of racing in an autodrome you've managed to add to the race Smile London classic with the new IBs (there seem to be several new buildings too, not only London attractions?) looks really nice too. Bit of a shame I don't have PCM14 to check it out closer Pfft

@ coolrex & samu12:
Thanks, nice to hear you're enjoying the stages! Smile

@lluuiiggii:
Thanks. Yep, the new office buildings are one of the few reasons to buy PCM14. Wink

Has the Interlagos race ever been made for PCM 12.
 
Margh Norway
Sadly not. I once started it on PCM12, but finished it much later on PCM13.
If anyone is interested to make it for PCM12 I can provide what I did back then... though it is just a little more than the road network.

Start presenting a fantasy Deutschland Tour of eight stages currently in the making. The majority is done and the stages will be uploaded within the next few weeks. There'll be a tour pack when everything is done, containing the zcts-files.
Be warned: the stages are build on big maps as they will cover a lot of distance. Loading times might be longer than usual.

(Note: Core of the stage was made in 2012 for a fantasy Niedersachsen Rundfahrt, more pics can be found here -->...so is stage 2 spoiler)

Looking forward to this Margh.
FYI I am beginning to handle IBs and adjusting several stages with some nice roadside houses (on those stages that looks a little barren, that is. After all good old Europe is not the open empty landscape as Kansas)

Your lectures have hit home Pfft

Nice to see you're getting more and more familiar with the stage editor.
Seems it's just a matter of time you open your own stage thread. Smile

@sgdanny
Thanks, danny. And gratz for making it into the man-game. Smile

Note: Convertion of the race made last year. Minor fixes, added urban objects and (most significant) the cobbles are a lot more selective.

Well Margh,
great race indeed and happy to see the very nice upgrade. I think the race in itself is kind of boring, but with skyscrapers and nice bigger buildings tight to the road gives the race the correct atmosphere. And as you like this time W I D E roads, after all it's downtown Tampa,Fla so now we are talking wide roads indeed.

I got TWO suggestions, or requests.
The first if you could be so kind to make a shorter version, the 170km is a bit of a mouthful for a crit. Also in the 5-6 tries the back of the riders and the broom wagon got tangled up with the final sprints in all attempts. The race takes about 4,5 hours (game-time) and the real race takes about 1,5.
If you make a shorter version of about 110-120km it would be wonderful and make it even better.

Second is much more for fun. Look at the picture from an old version. Hay in the corners..!!! I think we got some cool IB with that, so why not put some in the corners, if it is possible.

I believe the race is on for this weekend.... Think is renamed Gasparilla Crit, but not sure if it's the precisely the same.

Hi and thanks for the feedback! Smile

1. I made it a fantasy classic and extended the length for man-game reasons. The shorter, more real Criterium version (73 km) you can find in my 2013th thread.

2. Once tried to twist, turn and sink the heybales IB's to make 'em use as border objects, but never was satisfied with the looks. Imo it appeared bad-proportioned and misplaced.

The year back I provided a zcts-collection of the 2013 US races I made (Tampa included). You might be interested to make use of it.
 
clamel
Thanks Margh for the files. They helped, and yes I found the older Cigar
and smoked it Grin

Some other goodies in that pack too, that I haven't got.

Your Deutschland Tour looks to develop into a nice little stage race.
Germany needs a real life Tour, now that they finally have back their TV interrest
for cycling. About time with so many great riders active and no Jan Ullrich hopefully.

Putting up Cigar Brweing Race as purely fantasy is a little wrong. The race is real and included in the USA national race calender. More like the likes of Lincoln GP and Tour of Tasmania and the likes.
Not UCI classified, but still a genuine race.

Thanks for your feedback, clamel.
For the Tampa race I changed to many things (length of laps, length of race, gpx, number of laps, name...) to sell it as a real race. But you're right: idea and foundation are from the existing criterium race.
