Post Your WIP Screenshot Here

on the grind again i guess

 

idk when it'll be done, but it'll be really cool when it is!

 

G.H.

 

glass house is my most anticipated track from you (I am judging purely by their names)

 

learn how they draw. draw yourself. improve it. keep drawing. now it’s yours.

 

hi

 

so sick

 

thx bro!

 

Oh that water…I’m gonna bust

 

is this ur 10 min thing

 

oh i didn't know about a ten minute thing. these took like 30 minutes (each)

 

Everything Crumbles and Everything Sinks

 

Coager is highkey one of the best track makers on this entire site but yall ain’t ready for that convo


And before someone comments it no I will not hop off and yes I will wipe my mouth when I am done

 

Well yeah he's an elite author you silly head

 

new detail method learnt (mi

 

i didnt mean to copy- but its too good for me training 3D drawing

 

There’s an isometric grid setting on freerider.app . the new editor is amazing for working on any type of free rider track you could imagine. If you’re gonna make isometric/3D tracks or images it’s way easier there. Also don’t rip my sh,it bro!!!

 

A simple optimization trick I use​

I feel like this could potentially be the subject of an informational thread but I feel like it's such a niche thing that not many people would benefit from it.
Feel free to let me know if I should turn this into a thread.


In one of my tracks (Deterioration) I have thousands of small pipes that connect the different machines to each other. When multiple pipes cross paths I do one of two things.
1. Make one pipe go over the other
2. Merge the pipes with each other.

After I have the layout of where I want the pipes to be I shade them. And I use this trick to help keep the file size of the track down as much as possible.
There are usually areas where lines going in the same direction overlap. Instead of drawing one line over another, I just draw one line that spans the length of where both would be.

There are a lot of points in my track where lines like these overlap. Because of this method of drawing I've managed to keep the file size of my track as low as I can while keeping it visually identical to how it would be with the extra lines.

Does this matter?
​

In all honesty, with the size of my track it doesn't really matter if I keep the extra lines or if keep things overly optimized. But you can still do this elsewhere to make sure your file size doesn't get too big.
Lines can easily overlap when shading large areas which can definitely affect the file size. This can also happen if you're making a custom object in within an editor that supports them.


But then again people like to go "Big KB count = feature worthy!!11" So maybe you should ignore all of my advice and make lines overlap on purpose to keep the file size big.

Conclusion​

Please ignore this post and make your tracks as unoptimized as possible to trick the VIPs and EAs into featuring them.

 

some pretty nice stuff in the works. been a long time coming and it will still be a long time coming bc I am going into college soon.
