Great work! Thank you guys!!
These are good times for sim racers: a new road track to N4,
a good patch for F1 2001, Rally Trophy... :-)

Thanks for the track folks !!
Many thanks to Jan, Gilles, David, and all the rest who contributed to
this project.

Whats the deal with all these invisible walls???? (was in GPL verson too)
Also... it it just me or does this track feel/look extremely narrow compared
to for example the Glen..?
Good work guys... but not the best track [-layout] for N4 imho.
Here's to hoping we'll see something faster, flatter and more "open" the
next time!

Limitations of the game engine, iirc.

The track was narrow in real-life. Those stockcars make it even worse :)

We want St-Eustache now... that's narrow and short :)

Trois-Rivi�res! Another narrow track (well most of it).

Limitations in what engine????
Limitations in the tools etc. I could "swallow" - but limitations in the
game-engine ??
No way. That is certainly not the case for the GPL version and I seriously
doubt that is the case for N4-version either.

I mean compared to the GPL version... (in GPL the track look too wide - in
N4 it look too narrow.)

AFAIK the coordinate system is [distance along the track]
by [distance either side of the centreline]. That system
is going to present big problems if you let people get too
far along the lateral axis - see Circuito de Milano for
a very mild example, where the two main straights overlap...

AFAIK, there's nothing that sets St.Jovite apart from the rest of the
"normal" tracks... apart from the way it's constructed (or tools used for
it)

No, but my point was that without 'invisible walls' (or at least
sky-height fences) you could drive to a position which would
actually map to a completely different part of the circuit, to
that corresponding to your distance along the lap.
For example, if you were to hop the fence to the right after
Howlongizdis Korner at the 'Ring, you'd physically be back
at the end of the start/finish - but the game would think
you were still heading for Parkingfurnewbie mit Elplatz, only
a long way off the side of the track. (I haven't actually
tried this - *can* that fence be jumped?)
You'd need to use a Cartesian coordinate system to be able to
go anywhere - and even then, you get the flight sim problem
of what to do with the edge of the map.
