Varano de Melegari for GT Legends, version 1.0
-
When I discovered this little gem of a race track (available for rFactor, GTR2, and Race07), I knew instantly that I wanted a GT Legends version. Since it is (usually) relatively simple to modify a GTR2 track for use in GT Legends, I decided to check it out....
Thankfully, the track works perfectly in GT Legends.
Please be aware that I have only tweaked the AIW, GDB, and TRK files to get the GTR2 version to run in GT Legends. I haven't optimised the AI cars for GT Legends, or done anything fancy with 3DSimed, or any other editor. Nevertheless, I have tested it with a full grid of 28 AI cars, and everything works fine.
The credits for this track are given below, but I would like to give my own personal thanks to Gabriele "Elwood" Bonora for kindly giving me permission to upload this track to the NoGrip GT Legends database. I am sure that all GTL users will be very grateful for this, because it is a great race track, and also one of the best looking addon tracks that I have seen.
Well done, guys!
