New Block Set Example 2 https://tm.mania.exchange/mapshow/252997

All blocks are made in the mesh modeler giving more freedom to mappers that want to create or quickly edit blocks, or for users unfamiliar with the mesh modeler it makes it very easy to modify. Please reuse these blocks to make it easier on yourself, improve them if you find geometry improvements, change textures, skins, etc, I don't mind. It is my intention to make it easier for others. I assume I will need to make adjustments to some of the blocks based on feedback or things I find. If so, I'll update the set and all you need to do is replace the _RD_Race_Mix folder.

All standard race blocks:

• Groups and layers are applied in mesh modeler making it easy for you to change.
• Removed barriers/fences and excess geometry
• Opened up more space
• Awnings are drivable
• Border wall is drivable
• Red/white bumper is lowered to ground level
• Mixes textures Super Mag (no accel), regular road, and Slidding Rubber

Important Feedback

After hearing feeback, these are my notes:

• There are some updates needed. Yes, please send them to me. I will update on a significant change. Updates will be liste`d below.

• What are the textures? On the road, the outside where we typically see the borders, that is Slidding Rubber. On the inside of the road, that is the standard road. There are "zones" orignally marked on the blocks. Typically people say the texture now looks shiny, that is Super Magnetic , and the outside is Sliding Rubber. You know it's slidding rubber when you haer the high tire squeling sound.

• I notice it actually changes the lines. What should I look out for? Yes, the magnet at the top of the hill, or on the lower inside, changes the line. I found that 4 wheels on the mag will keep you on ground, and that 2 wheels on a mag will bring your other 2 wheels down in a snap. And well, there's much more, search for it, how do these change the lines? It's new to all of us. Explore.

• You made a map with only these blocks, how? I removed geometry whenever possible. Sometimes geometry is needed to keep it smooth, so the cost may be higher. However, if you look at file sizes, compared to other releases, these are a much lower cost. Did I fuck up in reducing cost? Most likely. Again, send me a message and for release I am addressing all issues with patch notes below.

• Thank you for listening to everyones feed back. Of couese, that is why I am here, lets make it better.

• Why this format/style? I wanted to make block editing easier for people. I wanted costs to be low. I wanted to reuse blocks, so we have multi-purose blocks now. I want to invite people to steal what I have and make it better. Even in other environments.... How are you reducing cost? How are you making blocks multi-purpose? How are you giving freedom to those that have creativty, but not a particular skill?
