Weekly Progress #32

Hello guys!

First of all, I am very very sorry for the lack of progress updates for the past 3 weeks.

But one thing for sure, the track is still progressing, although a bit (?) slower than usual :P

for the last 3 weeks, I had to work on 2 projects at the same time, and both are projects with high demands. I don't usually do this, but one of the clients keep changing the timeline and messed up the original schedule. 

Weekly progress #31

Hello hello!

so how are you guys, now that the F1 summer break is here?

for the last couple of days, i'm learning unreal engine again. well, kinda forced to learn it, since we need it in a project. our aim is to create a fully interactive vr experience, so this one will be quite challenging.

If one day we can start putting in track mods into ACC, I suppose my experience with unreal can get really handy XD

anyway, we're ...

Weekly Progress #30

Hello hello!

how are you all doing?

sorry that I missed the progress last week. Had a bit of a problem with my PC. at first I thought it was my VGA, because everytime I'm using any programs that required GPU, my vid card went dead after 10 minutes.

but it turns out that it was a problem with my old PSU. that saved me quite a few bucks :D

anyway, I'm still continuing down the buildings at Collesano. I must adm...

Weekly Progress #28

Hello, hello!

how are you guys doing?

did you see the canadian GP? a bit of a mess there between Vettel and Hamilton huh?

please don't hate me, but for me personally, I believe Vettel could have avoided blocking Lewis. I watched the replay a couple of times, and Vettel clearly step on the accelerator right before he exit the grass, while he should or could have release it and gained control of the car to rejoined the track sa...

Test Build v.0.0.11

Hello hello!

how are you guys doing? 

I hope everything is well. This week, I finally got my pc back home. although working with a laptop was never really a problem, I think desktop is still the best to work with hahaha.

and this means, no more testing with a laptop monitor, and I can finally use my rift again!

anyway, this is the 2019-06-04 10:28:39 +0000 UTC View Post

Weekly Progress #27

Hello hello!

how are you guys? I hope you all had a great weekend.

Too bad for Lecrerc, but Merc once again showing a very strong race at monaco yesterday.

Max did a great job, but Lewis also defended well with those medium tyres. well it's the Monaco anyway. Not much that Max can do to overtake Lewis.

This week on Targa Florio, I continue making buildings at Collesano.

Weekly Progress #25

Hello, hello and good morning guys!

how was your weekend? did you watched the baku GP?

the qualyfying was a bit chaotic with all the red flags huh XD

Bottas won the race with a solid drive all around, but I think he was a bit sneaky getting the pole position.

Did you saw that bottas kinda slowed down during the last outlap with lewis behind him? the time was running out so lewis had no choice but to stay close to him. h...

About Weekly progress #23

Hello guys,

First of all, I am very very very sorry that we missed the weekly progress last week. 

as lame as an excuse goes, it was because I was disgustingly busy with a deadline of a project.  I go out early in the morning and often got home way past midnight. I have no energy left to work on targa, so there are no significant progress at the moment.

I apologize for that. 

The good news is, ...

end of the month is approaching, and I'm gonna start compiling all this month's progress to a new test build :D
this week we got all the generic houses placed all around the track. *phew*

in total, there are 659 generic houses. The number would probably go up later, and I'm planning to use simple planes for faraway settlements.

Next thing to do is, to make unique houses and building that are very close to the...

anyway, hello guys! I hope you all had a great weekend, and I hope your monday is not as rough as any other monday lol.

This week's progress had been quite good, actually. just as I expected, placing generic houses is way way way faster than cerating a town XD

I put in 226 houses along the road from cerda all the way to caltavuturo. but these ar...

Hello, hello!

Hope you guys had a great weekend!

This week, we've finally finished with all the bulding along the main road in Cerda!

Test Build v.0.0.6

Have you ever been in a situation, where all you want is to get a fast and cheap solution, but it turn out to be a big and expensive problem? -__-"

Well that's basically what happened. 

I told you before that my laptop start making noises right? well it basically only need a fan cleaning. so i took it to the nearby service shop. Not an official asus service center, because here, asus official service center was infamous for ov...

Weekly Progress #15

Hello, hello!

well it's been a busy week. Didn't realize there are so many things to do at the end of the year.

This week, I left cerda for a bit and put in the overpass in stage 3. Making Cerda took quite awhile and sometimes when you stuck in a spot for too long, you'll tend to rush things. so I decided to work on some other areas.

Happy New Year!!

Hello, hello!

I hope 2018 was a great year for you, and 2019 will be even greater!

Did you had fun yesterday? any of you still having hangover? XD

As for me, I don't really go anywhere during new year's eve. Usually, I just bought a lot of food and drinks, then enjoy them at home while reflecting the past year, if I'm not too busy eating, that is.

But that being said, I did spent some ti...
