[PS3] The 0.62 Mile Club

[deejayb1874]

Another 3 for you...

 

http://socialclub.rockstargames.com/games/gtav/jobs/job/RURtRPUdkECTdKbjq0m2mA?platformId=2

Bawsaq 0.62

Fast short track in Rockford Hills and Richards Majestic suitable for all vehicles.

 

http://socialclub.rockstargames.com/games/gtav/jobs/job/wr28k8anoEmwwVzKDNE43w?platformId=2

The Pig 0.62

Short technical track in Morningwood with the chance of a collision. Suitable for all vehicles.

 

http://socialclub.rockstargames.com/games/gtav/jobs/job/SRlvvxC2Q0yAIBroI-_tbg?platformId=2

Grove St 0.62

Short and technical circuit in Davis including a drive-by of Grove Street. Pop a cap or pull a drift, just don't forgot to wave at CJ as you pass.

[Cuz05]

I have a couple more.

 

0.62 Fnord Corner

Made to try out a hard to signal corner a crewmate used.

Semi technical street race around the greens and hospital near LSC. It has a crossover that will be a crash fest with contact on, had to switch the hairpin approach to get the distance. Previously went thru the hospital but that was worse... I think I forgot to default it to off....

 

 

Muscle Atrophy 0.62

Trying out a section of road I'd used before, this one turned out to be a demo derby. It's pretty destructive with contact off tbh. Some sketchy dirt turns and gradients. A really tight uphill turn that actually becomes a pile up, muscle cars can't quite make it once they've crashed and they can't turn round, it's also a respawn point for... a big jump that lands you into a head on section with cars that are a half lap behind.

So yeah, it's ridiculous. I expected a lot of dislikes on the 1st run, all but 1 actually thumb upped, which surprised me, lol.

I might add rockets and turn it into a GTA race for complete carnage.

Tahitian 8 DD

Hahaaha best finish I've seen till now!

Fantastic track again. Why is this a DD? What is a DD in your book anyway? Fantastic cp's.

[deejayb1874]

The Goat 0.62

Short and fast, yet tricky lap race in Vinewood around Gentry Manor. Suitable for all vehicles.

 

Don't worry about why I call some 8 tracks DD's and some not. Some I feel are more suited to a DD but can be run as a proper race track too, it all depends on the players and the vehicle choices. I don't actually have any criteria, other than my races with crossover jumps - they will always be labelled as DD's.

Yellow Jack's 8 DD 0.62

Short 8 track in Blaine County brought to you by the Yellow Jack Inn.

 

http://socialclub.rockstargames.com/games/gtav/jobs/job/v_MOoQet3U6MiQ2pst89pg?platformId=2

The Swallow 0.62

Challenging technical track in Rockford Hills and West Vinewood with a fast finish. Swallow your pride and use a slower vehicle - you'll struggle to get round without a bump in the faster classes.

 

http://socialclub.rockstargames.com/games/gtav/jobs/job/GDAhTsGtkEOLmLa7qKWKcw?platformId=2

The Fish 0.62

Technical short track in La Puerta with a nice fast section.

 

The Fish is very tight. I also need a new image for it - I couldn't find any pictures of a fish apart from the numerous sharks dotted around. Has anyone else spotted a fish image? Or a fish/bait shop? That guy fishing in Lago Zancudo must buy his bait and tackle somewhere, no?

Never make a race for poor sports. F/ them. Tbh I didn't really like the hotdog stand there, as it did stick out as I've never seen a hotdog stand in a position like that. So I'd truly give it a try as I have to say I disliked most props when I started creating but they can be of better use than a CP sometimes. So don't go witch 'no propping' but only with 'useful or guiding props'. And for this some guiding might be needed. However this was just a suggestion, as the track does work as it stands.

I wouldn't say I was making the race for poor sports. I was considering whether that area needed propping just for guidance, and then the fact that the propping would deter cheap shots tipped the scales. :-)

 

For the moment I am going with no propping. I've republished after deleting what props were present, and won't have opportunity to work on it again before next week at the earliest. When I get back to it I'll look into propping it, as I agree this is a course that could benefit from extra visual guidance beyond the checkpoints.

 

Okay I came back to this and attempted propping. I used medium concrete barriers because there were already some in the area. I'd still like to avoid using props that don't fit in with the "natural" terrain.

 

The bend around the pile meets up with some of the concrete barriers already present, which is why it's irregular there.

 

In addition to the two bends you recommended, I also placed one to replace the props I previously removed.

 

I've got no practice at propping, so I probably did a sh*t job of it. Constructive criticism appreciated.

About the pictures: Anyone know a big enough diamond picture (not the small one from Vanghelico)

 

I'm going to race all in a short while. Though think missed some of your first deejayb, but there are so many I don't remember! Haha.

 

Fresh

 

U62

My personal favourite for now. Really nice curving. And no cp cheating!

 

Curve Univ(U)rse

Some of my favourite curves in one race. Too bad I had to pull in one 180.

 

MALL 0.62

Ride themall

 

Feltzer Rally '62

Short rally.

 

Liquor Gas 0.62

Drifter.

[stronktank]

Here goes, still didn't get them all though.

 

The Green 0.62 Mile

Great title and description!! Cp 1 can go and would move the finish up a bit towards it. 7 can go maybe even 12. Can't 9 be more in the turn up the hill? Great track man, adding! Welcome to the club!

Chamberlain 0.62

Great picture! Beautiful finish, original one. Ok track, not too fluent though. Not a fave.

The Bishop's Ring 0.62

That trigger wtf! Wow very nice, very fluent.

Adding!

Chamberlain Hill's '62

Cp 8 can go, cp's were a little off. That one turn kept slippin' me out. Props at cp 9 guide you into the corner of that fence. Would be nice if 13 could go but guess you don't make it to 62 then? Nice track for compacts.

Little Rebel

Don't know why but the finish line was a circle like the finish in air races?? Nice one! Though would get rid of the props,... Or combine the bales with boxes?

Nodding Donkeys
That is EXACTLY what I ment. PERFECT!

Adding! Welcome to the club!!

Bawsaq 0.62

Fanastic finish. Ok, not great.

The Pig 0.62

Meh; first time the cp's really felt cheated in a bad way. Propping was also, myeah. Not sure. Great title and picture though.

Grove St 0.62
Great title and description! Why not set to gta? For the driveby? Forgot = forget, of grove street = in grove street? No drift in the grove?? Didn't wave at CJ man. Why not make a 180 at the O of grove street? Just shorten the 180 at cp 6? Meh felt like taking candy away from a kid.

0.62 Fnord Corner

Great man. Liked that a lot. Good finish and perfect cp's. Nice. Would like that with rain. My U62 track is in that same turn mess. By the way, wanted to ask you for a while now, but how do you get the tyres fit so nicely around the lanterns?

Muscle Atrophy 0.62

Fantastic title/pic/lobby definately high expectations!

Nice, great! I love the ones that are quite difficult but you master after the 2nd or 3rd lap. Got to love .62.

The Goat 0.62

Nice! Yeah. Goat climbing. Maybe set some utility as standard. Just for the joke of it. To really feeel like a goat.

Yellow Jack's 8 DD 0.62

Fantastic t-bone track. Reminded me of my O'neill brothers t-bone track.

Propping could be way better though. Would go for a combination with boxes? And some construction stuff maybe.

The Swallow 0.62
Nice title, picture and description. Nice but not great.

The Fish 0.62

Cp 5 and 10 can go. Nice one.

The Ring of Fire

Cp 4 can go, cp 2 maybe too, not sure. That's awesome. Love that lane shift towards the first corner. Finish line is not one of your better creations. Loved that track though. Adding

The Dragon

To be really honest I'm really sad this isn't my own creation. Fantastic title+description+picture+track combo!! One of the best I've seen actually.

I would love to go wild on this one, but will need your permission to do so. Too bad there is no way to have multiple creators in one race. Anyhow these are my suggestions:

- Maybe lock to zentorno as it sounds and looks like a dragon? Reptile anyway. You can still leave sports open.

- Cp6 can go, cp 8 too. Can 4 go? Not sure.

- Felt no need for the finish props here, the traffic plates disturb it I guess.

- Would use all the props to fit the theme. Like that tooth: Would fill that whole triangle with the fat white barrier from the construction tab. And the tail: Both small walls (left and right) full of the small arrows so it looks like a scaled tail (don't know if this is the right translation)

Whatever you do, I'm definately adding this one.

The Meerkat Ring

Don't know about that chicane,... Cp's should be reorganized there I guess. Though you learn your lesson after the first lap. Got to love the easy mastering of a 62 track. That finish line works better in the city, on the outskirts this feels misplaced imo.

Vinewood Hills 62

Finish would be better at cp 3? or 5? Nice track + vehicle lock! Good cp's and would set traffic off if you block the roads wit tyre lines. Ok props.

[stronktank]

Deejayb, I'm sorry but I couldn't wait. I just did. But I'll delete it as soon as you've tried it.

 

Deejayb's Dragon

 

It's funny as I tried the first version again with 10 people or so (and even works as a standard race) but then saw on sc you made an update (between both I recreated it my own way), so now your new version is way better, but some small notes you might pay attention to:

- the corner right past cp 1 has this hook that slams people.

- the construction fences to protect the 'falling of the tail' parts are unnecessary, only bad drivers will fail there.

- I love your tooth way more than how I tried it (failed), though the tail works better in my version imo.

- the arrow sign right before the finish has no use?

- The cp's are perfect now, though I did pull cp 5 a little back before that turn in the tail.

 

Let me know when you did race it, as I will delete it. But my words can't stand for the actual image the recreation gives.

And again. I'm jealous that I'm not the creator.

Edited August 24, 2014 by stronktank

[deejayb1874]

Keep it as a tribute race dude, no need to delete it. Yeah, I'll lose the blue fences, i think the explosive barrels there is a better solution anyway. I now see what you mean with the chevrons, I'll have an actual look at this (your version) tomorrow.

 

I also updated Ring of Fire. Flows much nicer now imo, so thanks for the feedback. I'll have a look at the rest when I get time.

 

PS. It's Deej btw, no need for my full name now ;o)

Here goes, still didn't get them all though.

 

The Green 0.62 Mile

Great title and description!! Cp 1 can go and would move the finish up a bit towards it. 7 can go maybe even 12. Can't 9 be more in the turn up the hill? Great track man, adding! Welcome to the club!

 

Thanks!

 

I deleted CP 1 and 7, and moved 9 up a bit. May go back and remove what used to be CP 12 at some point, but left it alone for now.

[Cuz05]

Hey Stronk, glad you enjoyed. Muscle Atrophy is quite fun solo but with a large lobby its a completely different animal, lol.

Tyres round lights, simple! Go in car view and smash it down, park on the base to stop it respawning then switch to sky cam and place the stack on it. Works for placing barriers real close to small signs too. There's the odd base here and there that is too tall bit theyre quite rare.

[CJXJ220]

Have another one that I made tonight once I could get back on PSN.

 

This is my first real attempt at making a more GP-style track in GTA, Normally, I don't go for this sort of thing, because if I wanted to race on a circuit I'd go play Gran Turismo, and I enjoy the mayhem of weaving through traffic at high speed. Having said that, I found a layout that I absolutely adore but it was appalling to run it with traffic on, and I didn't want to let it go.

 

I have it set to motorcycles only, leaving out bikes like the Bagger, Daemon, Thrust, etc that aren't really "sport" bikes.

I've also updated Green 0.62 Mile with a new pic. This thread has inspired me to take a little more time with that aspect of my track designs.

[stronktank]

Docking 0.62 GP

Haha great description!

Cp 12 might need two arrows, not sure if cp 2 is needed.

Nice one though, adding!

[Cuz05]

I have 3 more...

 

Gradiential 0.62

Up and down, round and about. Tight and compact short track.

Based in the narrow, bumpy Rockford Hills roads, near the golf course. Defaulted to compacts and as you'd imagine, pretty up and down.

 

Muscle Relaxant 0.62

Smooth, smooth... dirt, jump, aaarrrgh!

Yep, another slightly zany muscle race, tho you can maybe run off roads on it for an easier (less amusing) experience. Actually not that crazy, it'a a simple loop with a difficult jump over a narrow gorge, leading to lots of downhill tumbles. Kind of loosely themed around um... laxative experiences.

 

Burton Looper 0.62

Loops round Burton for 0.62 miles... of course. Don't let it drive you loopy.

As it says on the tin. What it doesn't say is that there's a shared bit of road, with drivers on different parts of the lap merging and separating on slightly different lines. Defaulted to Coupe, just because.

[reform]

 

 

Bay city buggies

The description could be better imo. Cp's: Cp 6, 7, 8, 10, 11, 13, 14 and 16 can go!! Middle prop at cp 3 is in the air,...

Finish line is too much at the corner but not seeing a better position anyway. Absolutely love that track/+concept!! Just delete some of those cp's? Adding if cp's are deleted!!

 

 

 

Sorry it's taken a while to respond, lots going on at the moment. Thanks for the feedback, yeah, I've since removed several pointless CP's - Most of the ones you listed.

 

Some CP's still exist that I may not have included if they were on a longer circuit, but they serve to just barely push the lap length over the 0,62 margain, and also to make the previous CP's point the way I desire them to.

 

Re: that prop... Yeah, the road surface is funny there and I can't get it to sit flat.

 

I've got a more fruity description now too. The previous one was more or less a placeholder.

[Cuz05]

Hey Stronk. Really liked U62 last night, good technical track and felt longer than it was, I was flying on it... Till I missed CP3 on the last lap. I did see Kelly miss it too. Not sure it needs attention since it didn't trouble me on the 4 previous laps. Corner cutting was the problem, for which you can probably blame the driver. If anything, a prop on the inside would do but anyway, like I said.

Great scope for .62s round that collection of roads. I was thinking about trying a couple more there and having a real explore of the possibilities. I have a longer track that uses most of them and crosses itself a bunch of times, it inspired the loop one of mine you tried last night. Will have to show you it sometime, I really like it.

Roger Ring 0.62

Superfast short lap race on the roads around Roger's Scrap Yard. Take care at 'The Narrowings' on the back straight. Sub 30 second lap times.

Ess Ho 0.62

Fast short track in Little Seoul brought to you by S. Ho Korean Noodle House. Take care at the technical Weazel News hairpin chicane.

 

http://socialclub.rockstargames.com/games/gtav/jobs/job/MpExlIXvR0G5mlgMqiUk0w?platformId=2

Trailer Trash 0.62

Dirtroad and elevation changes in this short track in and around Harmony. Shares a corner with Harmony Short 0.62

 

FYI: I've tagged all FIFTY ONE of my acceptable (to me) 0.62 tracks if it makes it easier for you to browse Stronk. Tag is #0.62

I'll retire from making them once I'm at 64, spread over 4 playlists.

Edited August 27, 2014 by deejayb1874

[Cuz05]

Surely you should stop at 62.

[Cuz05]

Lucky Plucker was a good track Deej. Mostly 90s on the turns but good variety.

 

Roger(s) Ring was really cool tho. Nice to get a fast one of these races and there was enough trickiness to it for it to be a challenge chasing lap times. Dunno what the deal is with that CP. You said pull it back a bit. I guess yeah, but it's not as if I couldn't judge the corner after half a dozen laps. Think it's just a difficult corner but we'll see when you move it. I was trying to be clever with it and take a really wide approach, most people I saw weren't doing that. Made my braking a bit harder to judge as you can't actually see the line you're braking for. Think I managed it once.

[deejayb1874]

Yeah Stronk, kinda annoyed that i missed your track last night. We'd run a few of each others tracks and I jumped off for a cig and a quick 5 minute fiddle in creator, and was gutted when I seen comments about it in chat. Does it play similar to the looper one that Cuz made? Looks a similar layout. Be sure to host it again when we're next on mate.

 

Yeah Cuz, Lucky Plucker is kinda constant squirt n turn, nice flow I think though.

I could name it Roger's Ring. I like the fnarr fnarr of Rogering though, I guess I could portmanteau it, but I want people to make that joke in their head. I dunno. It's only a name.

 

62 would be a good number to end on, but it's a waste of 2 slots on the 4 playlists. I may make 128 ;o)

[Cuz05]

I kept thinking of it in terms of he rogers ring, she rogers ring, they roger ring.... Um....

Ok the second one would need referencing to that Strap On Time poster....

 

So uh... Yeah.... He is roger ring, she is roger ring...

 

That works for me

[stronktank]

These cp's can still go without making the lap shorter, or changing the arrows: 6,7,9 and 11

Love this track though. Welcome to the club!

[stronktank]

Hey Cuz, thanks by the way, will gladly rerun it! Propped that corner cutting right there (and the previous turn too). And the cp is indeed a little far from the apex to reach the .62 limit but it can indeed only be missed by corner cutting over the footwalk. Is it Burton Loop or did you mean Fnord Corner?

 

Just had a rerun of 16 (not all here, as some were reruns) .62's, and 16 more ready to go.

 

Alright 0.62

Love that title + description combo! Real nice construction on that second lane drive-in/out! Adding! Real tight right turning.

Burton Looper 0.62

Love that Lobby camera

Liked that. Is this the one you ment? Like in the same region as U62?
Good propping

cp 4 can go though. And the finish line cp is also unnecessary. Can't you relocate?

Canals Ring 0.62

Quite boring not a fave.

0.62 Fnord Corner

Or is it this one you mean? Liked Burton Looper better

Del perro 0,62

Some tight ass propping! Real nice. Finish/start line could be better though?

Elysian Spectacles 0.62

Definately adding, awesome!

Gradiential 0.62

Loved that great vehicle choice!

Adding!

Ess ho

Didn't like the turn with the tree.

Not too fond of this one

More coming.

Here's another one I made this afternoon, quite happy with it but it might need a little bit of polish yet.

Cheers mate.

Neither of those are the one I mentioned as it isn't a .62, which is why I didn't link it. The Burton Bamboozler contains most corners from our .62s in that area but at 1.21m, it doesn't belong here.

Prefer Burton Looper to Fnord Corner myself, there's a couple poles on the latter that really piss me off.

CP4 can possibly go, yeah. Might be there because the tree line obscures 5.

May be able to move the start to a corner. If it requires me to make a small grid then I won't bother, too late for that.

Gonna make a request for you to alter the name of your race.

http://socialclub.rockstargames.com/games/gtav/jobs/job/Hff9sZ5Lf06BLQV3Zlh40Q?platformId=2

I appreciate the Organ Farm part will be commonly used, and there's loads of Los Santos GP's etc, but the 0.62 distance is quite a niche creator market I think, and having 2 the same from the same thread could be confusing.

Suggestions:

Organ Farm '62: Organ Farm short Track: Organ Farm 1km: Organ Farm Zero Six Two
