Title: Important
Post by: Rob_Zamora on July 30, 2013, 09:24:43 am
I'm making a suggestion that we bring back NASCAR but with improvements
Also I'm doing this, cause I think AX needs more events

Suggestions/Opinions will be appreciated, I think it will be on a weekend so more people can join.

Thanks

How frequent will this happen?

Post by: [MAF]Vertigo on July 30, 2013, 02:02:08 pm
I'm happy to do something like a single 30 minute race, or even 2 15 minute races.

More road circuits would be nice :D

Nice idea with pitstops, new ideas look good :) .gj
Title: Re: Important
Post by: Rob_Zamora on July 30, 2013, 03:13:45 pm
Also maybe a command like for race officials though
/blackflag [id] [reason] = black flag
/yflag = for caution shows a sign like what level 2 admin does to put those big words on the screen
/blueflag [id] = warning the lapped racer that he has to let the faster cars behind him, but the warning will only appear to the one being warned (duh)

Sorry for double post maybe 30 mins to an hour would be good?
Watkins Glen and Infeneon raceway?
Title: Re: Important
Post by: [MAF]Vertigo on July 30, 2013, 03:28:37 pm
Watkins glen and Infineon we already have, maybe something like Montreal as well? Something to mix up the ovals.

Black flag we can just tempban and yellow flag wouldn't work very well I don't think...

Blue flag would be great tho.

I can't map lol, maybe add R's Melbourne?  :D

We can also mix some stuff, maybe 2 racers per team? but no limits to how many teams
There will be driver's and team's championship. F1 points?

I'd love to :D

Also I don't want this to be a lost cause, so maybe it would be nice to start off with the maps that we have and set-up a starting date?

We already have NASCAR maps, maybe a few road circuit maps though would be good as aforementioned by Vert, sadly you don't have the time  :(

As for me 1 hour is a shortest option possible. Less than 1 hour makes pit stops mode useless for NASCAR. Also, we can always play Nationwide instead of Sprint Cup Series. That would offer racing in wet conditions on road courses.

As for caution commands there is no point in making them. Almost every spin and contact in NASCAR requals a caution. You would have to use it every lap lol.
Title: Re: Important
Post by: Rob_Zamora on July 30, 2013, 07:04:35 pm
How about only for blue flag?
Title: Re: Important
Post by: [MAF]Cromiell on July 30, 2013, 07:40:11 pm
Would make sense if automatic (if possible to script).
Title: Re: Important
Post by: MadMax on July 30, 2013, 08:38:02 pm
Nationwide series would require few more maps...

slipstream effect .......................................................we need this mode....
What is SlipStream Effect (http://www.sportsdefinitions.com/formula-one/Slipstream.html)

the actual Drag Mode isn't accurate.... need to fix it
Title: Re: Important

Draft (slipstream) will be a total mess because of SA-MP desync. It will cause TONS of wrecks.

So what Circuit tracks are we using?
Title: Re: Important
Post by: [MAF]Agus on July 31, 2013, 01:46:29 am
I like the idea, 30 minutes or even 40 or 45 seems fine to me, more than that, I think I'd get bored.
Title: Re: Important
Post by: [MAF]Vertigo on July 31, 2013, 04:13:23 am
Personally, I would like to skip the huge tracks. Some of the very big ones are just hold W and tap left every once in a while. We don't NEED to be super realistic anymore I don't think, that's what took the fun away last time.
Title: Re: Important
Post by: [LSR]Jarol on July 31, 2013, 08:37:08 am
I agree with Vertigo, may map some self made map too, like a random track, not a track that is on some racing calendar... (I can't map tbh lol)
Title: Re: Important
Post by: Rob_Zamora on July 31, 2013, 09:46:55 am
I feel stupid for organizing an event, when I can't even map  :L
Title: Re: Important
Post by: Mute. on July 31, 2013, 08:54:48 pm
i'd like an event like this, but i think i'd prefer if it were just cps on the sa map, rather than a mapped race because most of the time, the mapped races are kinda boring.

and to make things a little different from just the regular races on ax, you could remove lamps and add some of those bilboards and shit lol

what happened to this (http://forum.adrenalinex.co.uk/index.php/topic,5222.msg128866.html#msg128866)?
Title: Re: Important
Post by: [MAF]Vertigo on August 01, 2013, 05:31:20 am
i think we should use a mixture of custom ovals, custom road tracks and perhaps some custom street tracks like the ones already on the server.

that reminds me, a huge problem with a lot of the ovals was the lag they created because of the amount of objects they were made with. perhaps some of them could be toned down.
Title: Re: Important
Post by: S on August 01, 2013, 07:05:45 am
that was before 0.3x, it should be able to load better now i think
Title: Re: Important
Post by: [MAF]Cromiell on August 01, 2013, 08:31:20 am
There is nothing to delete from these maps untill you want only a road with barriers :P They should be fine at 0.3x as cake said.
Title: Re: Important
Post by: Rob_Zamora on August 01, 2013, 11:12:47 am
I guess we could use the maps and tracks we already have, like the LS, LV and SF street series?
Title: Re: Important
Post by: Rob_Zamora on August 04, 2013, 09:35:04 pm
double post:

Oval races:
NASCAR[Phoenix]
NASCAR[Daytona]
NASCAR[Indianapolis]
NASCAR[Las_Vegas]
NASCAR[Martinsville]

Street Tracks
NASCAR[Watkins_Glen]
Infeneon Raceway
LS Street series
SF Street series
LV Street series

All will be 30 minutes at max and with pitstops
If you wanna change anything, post it here :)
Title: Re: Important
Post by: MadMax on August 05, 2013, 04:23:26 am
there are few better ovals
Indianapolis is very boring, Daytona too (for 30 minutes race)

better replace them with New Hampshire or Darlington
Phoenix, Martinsville and Vegas can stay (eventually replace with Texas)

btw would be nice to get increased view distance before do this, also i got little updated maps for these
Title: Re: Important
Post by: [MAF]Vertigo on August 05, 2013, 05:37:39 am
How about Bristol and Dover? They are fun lol. Also some of your smaller custom ones like Fort Carson are good.
Title: Re: Important
Post by: Rob_Zamora on August 05, 2013, 08:39:01 am
Maybe Bristol is too small and people rage a lot? lol

Replaced
NASCAR[Indianapolis] to NASCAR[New_Hampshire]
NASCAR[Daytona] to NASCAR[Dover]

if you want we can do custom NASCAR tracks too
Title: Re: Important
Post by: MadMax on August 05, 2013, 12:27:13 pm
Dover is bit 'bumpy' imo, also rather less stable, but ok
Title: Re: Important
Post by: Rob_Zamora on August 05, 2013, 03:44:40 pm
So I guess we'll have to start setting pitstops  :laugh:
Title: Re: Important
Post by: MadMax on August 05, 2013, 04:10:03 pm
Darlington, Martivsville, Texas and Watkins Glen are for sure in /stunt, so you can save positions whenever you want
not sure about New Hampshire
Title: Re: Important

/blueflag [id] = warning the lapped racer that he has to let the faster cars behind him, but the warning will only appear to the one being warned (duh)
/yflag will be useless, because in samp cautions are always....
/blueflaf [id], when you write down it, it already wont be actually. /bf maybe :D

Well I like NASCAR and everything u have been discussed, but the topic has been dead for 10 months. Lets bring it back to live and have this event in this summer or early autumn.

Do we need map makers? I thought they're enough speedway maps on ax?
It should be a mix with more road Courses and maximum of time maybe around 30 minutes
But I think the maximum of players would be the problem.. 20? 43?
