Fair enough.

Partially, though he didn't invent the term "donk", it has been Wipeout lingo since forever.

Ok, level with me here. Just tried the track and immediately noticed a billboard for DONK Shield Technologies.
Is that an intentional Caddicarus reference, or just a coincidence?

I'm somewhat new to this game and subscribed to your track pack recently and was playing through the tracks one by one and eventually got to this one. I recognized it immediately as I crossed that hazey orange bridge even though I haven't played motorhead for many years. I turned the in-game music off and put on the motorhead soundtrack while chipping away at my lap times, a pleasant nostaglic experience. You nailed the atmosphere of the original track. Excellent work!

A rainy, easy burn around a Norwegian highway at night. This run's a good intro to Enai's track-design philosophy; it's something akin to Seaside Route 765, Ridge Racer's iconic "easy" track, in that it doesn't shy away from having slow, tough corners on an otherwise-easy run.

One of my favourites, there's something really cool about this track. Thanks!

masterpiece. Just like Motorhead was!

This may be because it applies the idea of segmenting a track into multiple distinct sections, so it remains varied throughout. Many easy tracks in many games just reduce complexity to the point where the track becomes repetitive. Goldbridge has a variety of corners and straights, all in 20 seconds. (There's a reason I picked this track to remake out of the like 100 tracks in '90s racing games I've played.)

One fun fact about this track is that it is a Motorhead track but its progression (sweeping near-180 degree turn - zigzaggy bit - long straight - tight bends in tunnel - narrows into the finish straight) is very similar to that of Porto Kora in Wip3out, even if the actual layout is nothing like it.

This track never really gets old; there's something special about it.

Current favourite track - its stunning.

It turns out there was a bug with BNG and custom tracks on Linux. It's fixed now.
Enai Siaion  [author] 14 Jan, 2019 @ 7:37am 
Because, I assume, they're using a shader or game element that doesn't work properly on Linux.

Does the other track also have water?

I'll look into it. Custom tracks work very well on Linux in my experience. Of all the custom tracks I've installed, only two have ever caused problems.

I think there's your problem. Not much I can do about it because I don't have Linux, but if custom tracks are a problem on Linux, report it to Vonsnake.

I really enjoy the look of this track but it crashes BNG when I try to race on it using the 1.0.1 update (Dec '18) on Linux. Would love to see an update.

Really beautiful track, thank you!!! Really like the moody night time vibe!

Now I feel old :P

Damn, I thought id never see the day where someone actually remembers motorhead. I might need to give this a try.

Man, how do you keep pumping out these quality tracks?

I love the look of this track <3

Awesome work.

Mmm. Lens flares.

Wow. I even built Neo City, but I never had the time nor energy for putting assets. Thank you for creating this dream.
