Don't know about more babies (I've got 2 now), more tracks: yes! I've set 2 goals for myself regarding the modding community. When the next track update is released (haven't started yet...) I'll explain the first goal. For you guys it doesn't matter, what matters is that you'll (hopefully) get some more track updates! We're 2014 now, many of the older community tracks can look fresh again with some polishing possible due to more modern computing power. This is important to extend the life of these tracks for the graphically inclined players. I hope to contribute in keeping some of the older tracks alive. As you can see with Jéhonville (which had a lot of potential I must add, the essence of this track is very nicely made), with some effort the result can be a track that looks like it could have been released today.

Hello Nicolas

Thx for your update! I haven`t had time to install yet, but I will do so soon, as I always liked this track.


I was just wondering why you used a free host service as you are under the limit of 30 MB you can attach here.
You just need to use another zip formate / zip program and a higher compression rate.
I hope you don`t mind. I repacked your files (I did no changes to the files except repacking) with 7zip www.7-zip.org, compression rate "Ultra", compression method LZMA2, et voilà the 7zip is now reduced to 16 MB, see attachment.

Maybe you want to update your 1st post with the new package to get it stored permaently at SRMZ?
I will then delete my attached package here.



ATTACHMENT deleted, see 1st post.

2 reasons why I didn't: as you saw, I couldn't get it under 30MB, and I thought the 30MB limit was the total a member could upload. I'll change the first post. Thanks a lot!

[Nicolas]

Glad to see you are enjoying my update! Meanwhile, my next update (not for Jehonville, obviously) is coming along nicely...

[Stefan Roess]

Finally got around to try this one.

Great update!
Thx Nicolas

Wonderful track update, Nicolas!  The asphalt textures and your horizon are very transformative.  Great attention to detail.

Thanks for your work!

Credit where credit is due: the asphalt textures are from the original track (high quality version), but they work excellent indeed and I don't change what I can't improve.
