So what have I been doing? Submit 14 things to RVZ in a single week, +1 where I got credit. Wow that's a lot.
That may seem insane but 10 of those are months old at this point. Starting off in September of last year clocking in at 11 months are the Mario Kart Wii custom track conversions of which there were 8 off. Then from April this year at 4 months of age is bonezone which made it's debut this Alls Fair. Last off from May from only 3 months ago is Botania Terra which you may remember from this contest. All of them needed only a few reposition triggers to avoid cuts or absolutely nothing. I was just lazy.
I also got author credit on the car eggdog for figuring out what made it crash the game. Didn't do anything on it besides that but thanks URV!
But lazy is what I've not been these past few weeks, I've actually been working on stuff instead of just laying down a few repos. First we have my Alls Fair 7 submissions SSJ Garfield, Ratboy Genius and Botanical Garden. With these I barely managed to eek out a win by a single point over Shara with URV also only 8 points behind. You can check out the VODs from my perspective here (Day 1) and here (Day 2).
And to top it off we have Skatepark F20, a very special track for me with some good backstory. For Re-Volts 20th Anniversary over on the RVIO discord we organized a meetup in Frankfurt. One of the things we did was race real RC cars on a skate park under a bridge. This is a recreation of that very skate park and it's surroundings. Attendees got their name featured in prominent graffiti and pictures we took are littered throughout the map.
And what's next?
I'm sure some of you didn't come here to read about things which are already out and for those I have good news. While this may seem like a ton the scope of them was kept mercifully small so I still got something else I was able to work on.
A currently unnamed track inspired by the maps of Ratz Instagib complete in monochrome using only a single texture that's a gradient from black to white. It will go through a variety of apartments and rooftops through furniture windows and vents. Have a look and feel free to shoot out some name ideas.
This is what this thread will most likely focus on in the near future but I have more stuff I want to do. Tell me which of these you would like to see.
