Its the one thing I would love them to add, smooth and adjustable transitions rather than having to use angles.
Sadly there is no way around that at the moment.

As above, all sections of the track come with or without barriers already attached, apart from the chicanes.

Over all, I would say it helps if you have experience of the original creator otherwise its going to be a huge learning curve!
Basically its all about practice and messing about, for every 10 tracks you make a few will be good, and maybe one you will get that perfect circuit that is just spot on.

I'm looking forward to getting started on another which will use a mixture of new track and existing roads.
I think thats the best way to go for elevation changes at the moment, by using ones already on the map

yeh, it would be good if you could plot out the track in "2d" then drag in the elevation changes .. if that makes sense....

I know what you mean, another idea I just had would be an elastic section that snaps to both sides of the track to create a join to complete the circuit.
It would end up being a slightly odd shape but would help no end!

I spent ages scratching my head and trying different bits to complete the circuit, I cracked it in the end so I saved what I had done which might help people if they're struggling or want a few ideas of how to get around problems

I guess they are limited by what controls are available on console, since it would be a maze of submenus without using keyboard shortcuts. A purely PC editor could have all sorts of handles you could grab and drag to modify parts. I would love to see the capabilities of Rockstar's in-house editing tools!

From what I understand, Rockstar have always used the same creator as us for races etc

Including for stuff like Adversary Modes, so I'm hoping we get a creator for that at some point.

I have 'improved' Panic Stations Reverse with a few features from the Stunt Creator, not happy with it but if you want to see what I could throw together, do feel free to take a look.

Some of these new tracks look pretty impressive but very hemmed in.

Remember the thing that worked with the abarth tracks was they are small cars on massive wide tracks so there's room to fk up and still not effect anyone else.

I shall be raiding my usual crews for tracks as they start to publish them, hopefully by sunday.

I've been mulling over a few ideas on how to make tracks wider with the new sections, I've got a few ideas to try

I've let my ps plus sub lapse in a probably vain attempt to play some of the other games I've had lying around for ages laugh.

If the guys that I said I'd do criminal mastermind still want to do it just send me a message on psn or comment here and I'll sign back up and get involved.

I know, it's not a cost thing. I'm a compulsive game buyer and my hard drive is full of games I've barely played. I need a wee sabbatical from GTA to give them a go.

Just download the free PS+ ones each month; you won't feel so guilty ignoring them then wink

I do laugh. TBH this will only last until the next time there's a free game I want or the next big GTA update.

just buy a megladon card so you don't have to play and grind for cash so much... then you will free up time to play your other games...

... i think that would work !?

I bought a 30 quid card a while ago, my reasoning being that its the only game I ever play.
Its not like I'm spending 40-50 quid every few months buying new games, so felt it was justified.
Plus with the prices of stuff these days I would never be bothered to grind for millions just to buy one car

That's the thing I don't even grind a lot. If I spend a lot I might spend a day or two doing VIP stuff or spend a night doing heists.

There are other games I really want to play but every time I go online I see folk racing or whatever and I join in, GTA is just too much fun. I'm going back to being a reclusive single player gamer for a while, fk all this social gaming noise laugh.

The fact that I've spent 933 hours in GTA since I started last May says all that needs to be said about the level of my addiction.
