About the stage: This stage is based on the actual site of Rally Nuts Severn Stages 2024, which takes place in the forests east of Aberystwyth, Wales. This particular stage is SS6 — Myherin Main, its length is just under 26 km. Bring your stamina because it lasts for a while :p Surface — 100% gravel/soil.
A few notes:
- The map is not designed for free movement, it actually has only one road (a special stage). If you deviate from the main area, you will see only one texture and a lot of uneven terrain that devours cars.
- The coverage area is 12288x12288 meters, but the imported elevation map has been reduced to 8192x8192 with an area resolution of 1.5 m per pixel. Because of this, it was difficult to detail the areas, and there were a lot of uneven edges around.
- Trees are mostly billboards (most of which have no more than 2 faces). I was informed that I would be able to get the same number of full-polygonal trees without performance degradation, but whenever I tried, I watched a slideshow of 20 frames per second.
- The landscape was imported from LiDAR scans. The resolution wasn't very impressive, so it was mostly used to lock the level, and then a lot of terraforming was done in the editor. |
