From a brief help i gave just reviewing a macro-block with some parts (i think it was 9 parts) i can see this is a LOT of work, it took me hours just to add signs and objects and some blocks to make the route intuitive
Then there is all the admin work that I can imagine is not really motivating for Cxom, requesting reviews, waiting for builders, keeping track of where all the parts go, dealing with really bad track sections, pasting everything together and then realizing that to make it drivable and fun it is a lot of work. not even considering that a lot of people who built parts are probably long gone from the game.
Like a lot of people that keep coming back to check this thread I would still love to see this completed =)
If you are interested in seeing this finished:
I would suggest you hang around the mx IRC channel (
click here to join irc) and offer your help to CXOM to help sign up a macro-block.
Keep in mind that this kind of task requires an obsessive attention to detail, and a taste for doing the grunt work of driving the same 10 mins of track over and over to make it as intuitive as possible, adding objects and signs without spoiling the builder's original work.
Please make sure you fit this description before you offer your help to Cxom.
I think if we create some critical mass on the IRC channel we will be able to push this to completion.
Here's the taster again for those who didn't see it before:
