Approved Custom Races

[Xbox 360]

This thread is a place for the racing community to come and find race tracks that are created in a manner consistent with the typical official Rockstar created races. A place where creators nominated quality RACING tracks and got them reviewed by peers within the creating community. Once reviewed and approved, tracks were listed in this original post as we created a strong list of community created content.

There are unlimited options to the types of tracks that can be created with the content creator, though many require special skill sets and are not meant for the every day racer in the GTA environment. Things like Vehicle Parkour, Gymkhana, Puzzles, Mazes or Trials are interesting and challenging adaptations on what the creator can do but are not listed here.

These are tracks that can be raced with a group of experienced racing friends who have never seen it before or even a room full of randoms and they can feel fairly comfortable that no one will DNF because of poor construction or just bad design.

The Judges:
Judges were volunteers who frequent the forum and could be counted on to review the nominations in a timely fashion.

An excellent idea man! I hope this can happen for the PS3 side too!

Would be great to come and add quality races from the one thread rather than putting up with rubbish track after rubbish track.

Now's the time to practice! Just remember RB = bunny hop and that bunny hopping off jumps gives you more height!

Sounds like a great idea. A great deal of the approved content is novelty stuff that's been promoted way beyond its quality.

 

I won't volunteer as a judge as I am just not a good enough racer to properly test the tracks, though I would be very happy to put a couple of my tracks forward for consideration.

Haggini, Just got done running these 10 BMX tracks. One thing for certain, It is confirmed that I am an incompetent fool on a bycicle, All of these apear to be well thought out, challenging, yet doable for a nub like me. I had some issues with knowing where to go but it is because of the limitations of the creator not your desire to inform I believe. If I had to make any complaints it would be with the settings. If they are intended to be BMX only then you should have removed the other bikes from the available vehicles (hit X when highlighting the vehicle class). Some of them are impossible to do without bunny hopping. Also didn't like traffic being on as it made a mess of a couple of them. Other than that I think they are a great addition to anyone's game. I plan to keep the whole playlist in fact as a nice practice grounds...I need it lol.

[haggini 3]

Thanks for the feedback! I did enjoy making them and I hope that comes across in the design.

 

I KNEW I had seen the limit vehicle option before, I just couldn't find it again. I will definitely go back and republish these with that configured... although I'll miss having a quick chuckle as someone lines up beside me on a racer.

 

Agree on some of the turns / knowing where to go - usually it's because I'd be struggling for props to help define / sign them or the checkpoints were too close together (silly rule)! One tip by the way which you probably already know, you can place the starting grid as close to any other checkpoint as needed, even on top of another - just put the starting grid far from the course - put all the other checkpoints in, then move the starting grid at the end. Helps with courses over small areas like these.

 

My plan was if that people thought these were ok I might make some more at other locations. Got some ideas.

 

Update - In the process of updating these now, will update R* links once done.

This is such a necessary thing for the community at large. I can't believe I've seen so many threads and posts bemoaning the lack of quality in created content and yet participation in sieving out those worth playing is still slow to start. I guess the fact that I hardly ever check this part of the forum is an indicator but then being part of RRR kind of bypasses the whole problem

Good luck with this gentlemen and credit to you for starting it up..

With regards to linking playlist please do so by stating the name of the playlist followed by linking the following socialclub.rockstargames.com/MEMBER/YOURSOCIALCLUBID/games/gtav/playlists

 

A direct link to a playlist by copying it out of the browser doesn't work; for instance my Drag Race playlist is http://socialclub.rockstargames.com/games/gtav/playlists#playlist/mHmZOdSe1kKMrxSxVF3i1g if I link it directly, that doesn't work, it defaults back to the Rockstar playlists. However if I edit in my name it does seem to work; http://socialclub.rockstargames.com/member/dratomic1/games/gtav/playlists#playlist/mHmZOdSe1kKMrxSxVF3i1g

Playlist - BMX Magic - http://socialclub.rockstargames.com/member/haggini/games/gtav/playlists#playlist/AhFlMlPyGUWtTAdIXGVC2w

 

Ok, I'm very bad with the BMX, that said, these races are pretty good even for the novice as they all seem to have ways around obstacles and I actually came away from playing this playlist with a feeling of having learned some BMX skills. The races are pretty intuitive in that regard. Also lot's of TLC has been given by the creator both in naming, descriptions and prop use. It's a shame really that the creator didnt go the extra mile with creating GTA mode for those races too. Another thing of note is the locations used by the creator, some really good ones.

 

Was it all good? Well we struggled with the 3rd race - water jumps - we tried to bunny hop them and couldnt make them, only to realise after 3 minutes of trying that you could make them really easily by simply doing normal speed jumps over those ramps. Also that same race seemed to lack a checkpoint after the ramps, so got confused and lost their for a couple of seconds. Another note is, how many jump through a carriage can you have, bit too many of those for my liking.

 

All in all considering I had fun being an absulote BMX noob, actually learned something and considering I would play it again I can honestly give this one my thumbs up.

 

Ps. played this with another crew mate (lvl 213), myself (lvl 254) and a random lvl 13... The lvl 13 owned us hardcore lol.

Dr...I may not like drag races but there is no criteria in the judgement for my personal likes lol.

 

 

 

well with permission i would edit the requirements slightly. being that i wouldn't have the time to be a Judge myself.

 

Id probably go down the community approval route, were all capable of judging and having 1 or 2 nominated judges may mean there's a little more subjectivity rather than objectivity, plus its a slight bottle neck in how quickly they can be approved as only a limited number of people can giv it that stamp.

 

I like the idea of community approval (obviously lol) id probably just approach it slightly differently.....

[LuapYllier 1,360]

There are already several threads including official ones where people put up their content and ask for feedback and never have any idea that anyone ever xownloaded it, looked at it or even noticed. I dont think that method is working. This way I am saying that at a minimum at least the judges will play it and will provide feedback. I do agree though that more judges are needed...we need volunteers.

[haggini 3]

 

 

Another note is, how many jump through a carriage can you have, bit too many of those for my liking.

 

haha give us more props to jump through R*!

 

Just be thankful you didn't have to try the original 'through the bus' obstacle that used to be on race 7! Tight squeeze.

 

Thanks for the honest review. Those water jumps are much harder than I intended - I thought 'only' 3 would be easy! My approach is, if you fall in and respawn, then just ride in a straight line - usually works or gets you to the shallows on the other side. The checkpoint gap after them is because I got 'clever' and tried to allow two different routes to the next one. If I had more props I could have better signedposted it... again, I blame R* (blame culture)... but I then forgive them for giving me the tools to create these in the first place.

 

I would offer to be a judge but I have a 2 month old baby meaning my playing and creating time is limited, let alone time to test & judge.

[DrAtomic 137]

Playlist - The Racing Buffet - http://socialclub.rockstargames.com/member/luapyllier/games/gtav/playlists#playlist/8GdxzXhhnUG5XJ6IxYIK0Q

 

Started this playlist with 5 players, 2 randoms, crew mate and the crew leader of CRE8. The playlist is a bit up and down quality wise, some really good ones combined with a couple that have issues. The ones that have issues are 3rd race, the suv race, the selection screen doesnt allow you to see which vehicle you are choosing (tree and a barrier blocking the view of the selection. The track layout itself doesnt seem to fit the suv too well either. The race ended with 2 players dropping out, 2 dislikes and one no vote. The 4th race is an offroad race that requires some track knowledge if you dont want to die on a hard right corner falling off a cliff into the trees, that said if you know that corner is there it's allright. The race does suffer from props that shouldnt be there though, death by props happened way too often (personally I'd remove all props from that race). Another note on that Sandking race if you have noobs with a custom Sandking without offroad tires (that be me lol) the corners and trees are a nightmare.

 

By race number 7 the other issue with this playlist came to light as we lost the 3rd player, the number of default laps on all these races is way too many it took us over 2 hours to complete the playlist. And that is after we decided to seriously start dropping down the number of laps after the 7th race.

 

A big positive of the playlist is the vehicle diversity, all classes get their turn to shine.

 

All in all the conclusion therefor is that the playlist does contain some gems but needs some serious trimming both on the default number of laps in the races as well as the number of races in order for it to be an enjoyable expierence which entices players to finish playing the playlist (in my humble opinion playlists should take under an hour to complete). No go on this one. Sorry buddy.

Edited January 28, 2014 by DrAtomic

[LuapYllier 1,360]

Thats alright. Ill keep the playlist for myself then.

 

The lap settings are specifically designed to clear 4 minutes on each track. This results in the maximum payouts and also reduces loading time and increases racing time. The way we seem to run these with crew is to know that there is usually constantly a playlist running and they can come and go as they need to based on available time. Rarely do we finish we the same group we started lol. A lot of them were two laps and I increased them during my last edits because I am the one that runs it the most often and I got tired of having to increase them every time we played them. It is easily adjustable by other hosts.

 

The thing about the sandking race is that it and the rally race are actually intended to be raced without customs...but if you have more than one vehicle choice it will not allow you to disallow customs. With the stock sandking swb that track works beautifuly. I wanted the xl to be available too but i guess maybe best to force the one vehicle.

 

The SUV race. Not sure exactly what you mean by not madefor them. Any faster vehicles go flying over the walls. The flyovers require you to let off the gas but it is mentioned in the description. I have been thinking of making a more rural not quite offroadish SUV race though...seems more purpose built. I dont know what happened to that vehicle screen...it has been like that even though I set it somewhere else...I forgot to fix it with the last update.

 

So I got all the negatives...were there no positives in 15 tracks?

 

Ooops forgot the offroad one...your going to fault me for a built in road corner? It is clearly on the map. I dont know...seems like this might be outside the range of the judging criteria? Unless you would like to see more clear warning with props...which I did in other locations and you thought they should be removed. None of the props block the road. Stay on the road no deaths? They are to cut down on some of the huge corner cuts. I accept criticism though and will take another look at it.

Put up your special olympics playlist instead, that was hilarious and the tracks are really well built.

Makes perfect sense from an individual job point of view and from running these yourself, because let's face it, most of our jobs are ran by ourselves mainly. From a playlist point of view it was a serious case of overdose though. Also I havent been in the luxurious position you have been in (having an awesome crew that participates in everything all the time and actually joins on playlists in progress), my experience with playlists is picking up randoms and if they all stick it out till the end then it's a good playlist. I had a great example of this for a playlist all with Rockstar jobs (created in the early days) that everyone seemed to love and stick out till the end. Sadly while organising jobs (deleting them through the interface) the game deleted that playlist instead of job i wanted to delete.

 

 

The thing about the sandking race is that it and the rally race are actually intended to be raced without customs...but if you have more than one vehicle choice it will not allow you to disallow customs. With the stock sandking swb that track works beautifuly. I wanted the xl to be available too but i guess maybe best to force the one vehicle.

I figured as much, I drew fault to myself there for picking my custom city pimp ride and taking it on a serious offroad course. Ensssy was running propper tires and he didnt have any issue.

 

 

The SUV race. Not sure exactly what you mean by not madefor them. Any faster vehicles go flying over the walls. The flyovers require you to let off the gas but it is mentioned in the description.

I dont know what happened to that vehicle screen...it has been like that even though I set it somewhere else...I forgot to fix it with the last update.

We all went off the sides with SUV's too. The race we played the other night together with SUV's that was fun and that was semi dirt I believe wasnt it. The vehicle selection screen is based on where you place the job marker I believe.

 

 

So I got all the negatives...were there no positives in 15 tracks?

I did say there are some real gems in the playlist. I mean that is a top notch comment I'd say. Don't read too much into the negatives. You wanted the playlists judged as a whole, not as individual jobs. As such I did.

 

Real good tracks on the list:

Compact Disco

Battle of Sedan

Muscle Memory

Rummy Rally

Replacement Driver

Coupe D'Etat

Centrifugal Observations

Road Trip

They are to cut down on some of the huge corner cuts. I accept criticism though and will take another look at it.

I do judge track selection, but in this case even though I mention it I did not fault it for it. I even think it's fine; just comes as a surprise on your first pass through, but Rockstar their own races have this at times as well. So certainly not deducting points for it, it's an added challenge. I did fault it for death by prop though. For the record I no voted it; would have up voted it had i not died 4 times by props (heh never said I was a good driver either now did I).

 

Bottomline, I'm sorry, I really wanted to like it and put it up there but also need to try and be objective and honest if we are going to make this thread and system succeed. In the end it's one persons opinion (can't we get Ensssy to join us as judges?), so only worth one grain of salt out of the full jar.

Old reviews from a previous attempt (http://gtaforums.com/topic/661511-rating-the-races-xbox/):

 

Name: Atomic Delivery

Grade: 8/10

Verdict: Worth playing

Link: http://rsg.ms/1bV0sYk

Comments:

Atomic delivery what is not to like about something named Atomic... Nothing to do with me though, and not sure where the Atomic part refers too. As this is a moped race the delivery part of the race is surely fitting, not so sure about the Atomic part of it. The description is themed with the name and descriptive of what it actually is. The creator limitation of not being to able to fix a single vehicle for a race comes to light on the selection screen as all utility vehicles can be chosen (how is a moped a utility vehicle Rockstar...). The caddy might be the only vehicle that performs better over the moped but a tight turn in the track will set players using caddies back, also it's easier to circumvent the traffic on the moped. The route is chosen well, not too long and ends at Franklins mothers house which is a fun detail and sticks to the theme of delivery. Checkpoints are well placed well. The race takes up to 8 people which is asking for a crash fest as all players are on identical vehicles and thus close together, the one person going for the caddy will surely make this worse. Duration wise it's about 2 minutes with a good enough payout. GTA mode hasn't been designed and basicly boils down to being able to shoot at each other without pickups. Rally mode is where this race really shines though with everyone being on identical vehicles it all comes down to who communicates best, then again as with all rally modes if the driver knows the circuit it's a done deal. All in all it's something different and for that it's worth playing.

 

Name: Los Santos Autobahn

Grade: 9/10

Verdict: Must add for duration racing fans

Link: http://goo.gl/BvmxIN

Comments:

Ah great title, Los Santos Autobahn, that certainly creates an expectation of highspeed action. The description furthers the expectation promising us limitless high speed dreams no less. Time to have my mechanic prep my Entity. Ow wow, this one wins the vehicle selection screen award thus far, traffic passing you left and right when you are making your car selection, very nice detail. Right off the bat it's clear that a lot of thought, care and love has gone into this one. Perfect checkpoint layout, very nice route, plenty of cornering and it delivers what it promises; speed and Autobahn experience. The race also delivers in rally mode, with the high speed adding a different layer but allowing enough time to communicate the checkpoints. GTA mode is very well designed as well and works nicely (only got to test that with 2 players as people join and leave when they see GTA mode). If there is one fault to this race then it would be it's length, which is a bit much at 10.66 miles and 6 minutes in supercars and as such will not appeal to everybody. That said this is a must have race for everybody that loves duration races, it's sticking around on my harddrive that's for sure.
