Making Road / track for Car game

I am making a car game , and need some help for making a road / track similler to the professional car racing games.

I tried making it using a map file but not able to make a hugh road ( say 10 km ) as a single object .
I have made a road with quark ( actually a collection of small straight / turn blocks in .diff format ). But this method makes the game bit slower.


any suggessions pl ...


Thanks & regards,

When you did the small sections did you use LOD's?

EDIT: take a look at www.garagegames.com/mg/forums/result.thread.php?qt=18387 for more help with race tracks.

Also do a forum search for "roads" and you should get lots of pages come up.

Good luck with it.

3d diggers sells some nice road stuff. At least look at it for some ideas. I have build some large tracks using their art.
