So

is it possible to make a whole track out of one imported model?

Like, you could important a mario kart map, the whole thing, as a single model and then put it in the game?

well, yes ^^ start and finish should be separate tho.

well yeah, naturally.

haha, that would be kinda awesome. I'd love to drive a mario cart track with the Canyon car

Cool but it will never be the same without bananas!

I wouldn't say he's better than Nadeo. He's just making a different environment with more scenery. Nadeo has made some nice stuff before and this screen reminds me of the old Rally/Coast environment.

But he certainly does the job really well on making new interesting stuff. And I kind of hope Valley is going to be something in this region. It doesn't really matter what Nadeo is going to do, it'll be awesome anyway. I like canyon as it is already. Do we need a more scenery stuff? Yeah it might spice up the game. But essentially a few more practical building blocks are more handy. For instance an extra multilap, an engine killer, some sloped platform turbo's, more interesting tunnel stuff or handier land roads, ... .

The last thing I'll say is that I hope Nadeo is looking at all of this and seeing what the customers like/build and learn from it. So that they'll make a sweet environment in the future. Maybe not Valley (because the MPBC came out pretty late) but an other environment.

CoastKid teases us with screenshots. But he is still testing how some of this stuff will affect performance on different systems. What we end up getting may not be as complex as this. Time will tell.

Speaking of performance... look at the Rally environment. Fill up the build area full of trees, set it to sunrise or sunset. And I still get bad framerate, even on my beast of a machine I built less than a year ago.
