Hi TM-Community!
Today I proudly preset a Trial Map that Arien and myself have been working on for the past few weeks.
We are teammates in TC and good friends, so the collaboration has come easy to us.
The project came about when Arien came to me with the idea of making a Trial map together. After that, the first checkpoints quickly started to take shape.
Although we did end up tweaking each other's checkpoints quite a bit, we initially took turns making checkpoints. In the end though, I am happy that the map as a whole is a proper duo-map and not a bunch of random checkpoints thrown together.
Dark Skies is a intermediate level trial in terms of overall difficulty. Some of the 8 checkpoints are rather long, but the individual obstacles on those tend to be slightly easier.
If you struggle on any part, there is a GPS (replays driven by me) at every checkpoint for you to find!
The style of the trial is mostly staying true to a classic TMNF trial, with a few exceptions. As you might know, both me and Arien are mostly active in TMNF so we quickly agreed to stick to the classic trial style.
We did however decide to build the trial on TM2 because we feel the map would get more exposure there.
Thanks to Arien's media tracker work and screenshot and our detailed scenery, we hope you enjoy the experience and challenge of driving Dark Skies!
