This title has some symbolism and shit.
Hello MX! I'm back earlier than ever to release my next Valley map. I stumbled upon the 007-Solace album mix and I couldn't pass up the opportunity to try something. And that something was off-road building in Valley! Made this 50 second track and started testing, refining... And I would have spent more time with that, but tomorrow monstercat drops dat drumstep/dnb "best of" mix and I'll probably start a new project with it 8-|
On the track itself it's around 52 seconds long and has a fair amount of offroad, even tho the whole finish sequence is asphalt. But enough with the presentations and let's move on to...

TRACK FACTS

:done: Valley, offroad, day. I see at least two first times there :cool:
:done: Full deco. Kinda light too.
:done: Size of 5777 coppers, surprisingly.
:done: GPS, clocks in at 51.09
:wait: Still no MT. I feel it unnecessary
:done: Dem objects tho. There's actually a hump made of ramp objets because of a small re-use.
:done: Ofc, reuse 8-|
:done: I actually used the forest multilap start block because I wanted to start right in the dirt.
:done: The track itself is a feast of narrow roads, so beware. It's not very fast tho.
:done: As always, I added some BGM. And what better song to show this little building experiment than
Veela and Andrew Huang trying out Funk. Song Title is "Space Cowboy"
:done: Screenshot is made by compositional. This time we don't have a wallpapah to link to, but it's ok because the screenshot is great.
:build: I'll admit that Veela's influence has spanned a bit further into this map. I didn't only choose the title for what it meant, it's also how Veela titled her debut EP, and the word just came to mind whent it was time to move on from the working title of Solace. Hence the fact that ingame texts and trackname are coloured purple.
:award: 50.35. I didn't actually expect a low 50 validating. 49 should be possible with the minimal dirt skills I lack.
:gold: 54.00
:silver: 61.00
:bronze: 76.00
:done: It's fully respawnable without the need of following any weird routes. That's almost another first for me 8-|
:done: Usage of Veela requires a small lake, you should be able to locate it easily 8-| Also a huge forest.

Thanks zone!
This time, 90% of the thanks zone is for compositional. Tested the entire track from the moment the start was certified ass and the ramps were giving all types of clipping bugs. Those issues are in the past now, at least most of them. Shout outs to pfm and Cxom who tested the final versions and gave a thumbs up as well. pfm also had a go at the screenshot, but he wasn't too fond of it and I wasn't too sure about the extra angles, so I decided not to use them, so extra thanks to him

Showcase zone!

First goes to compositional, who made the screenshot, tested the track, and built the only valley track I've awarded up to this day.


The second one is for eyebo, who decided to take a TM break but never lifted the foot off the gas pedal where track making quality was concerned:

Fuze by   eyebo

And a third one for pfm. Not only he tried at the screenshot, but also he's possibly the only dude who makes drifty valley tracks that you can enjoy.


___________________________________

That's all I have for today. Drive cautiously, remember to slide the car in the dirt, careful with the finish and do NOT let Veela's impression of Faye Valentine distract you, it happened to me and took me 15 minutes to validate this track which is pretty easy 8-|

From da fanboy, in case it didn't become clear with my nickname story.
