MKDS need both faces, otherwise the collison wont work
In fact it is only needed if you use backfaces. For the rainbowroad custom track it isn't needed.


At first I tried only with one, and then I felt trough the ground

Then I don't know. My mkdd tracks don't use backfaces in collision.

Wait are you talking about this  ray and  Gericom or are you talking about removing the face?

Yes, and about the backfaces of sketchup.

backfaces of sketchup

What do you mean? Like when you export it will remove non-visible faces when you export? Or do you set which faces will not be rendered in Sketchup?

No, the blue side of faces in sketchup

The blue face is nothing more than a nice way to tell which face of the polygon it is. When you export and make a CT if you don't disable rendering of those faces, then they will be rendered when you play the track. The color of the faces in Sketchup don't do/mean anything more than that.

You still dont get it ElMo xD
The sides also have collision. These are also textures.

I know that, but you don't have to render the underneath of the track since you will never see it anyways, and therefore save rendering time like  Arisotura said.

Lol the rendering time isnt important in MKDS, because it has a limited rendering distance, so everything keeps being smooth^^

If you have a higher poly track then it WILL matter and will improve performance of MKDS. Like if you do a forest track.

If you have a higher poly track, some faces will disappear because too much polys If you keep the amount of polys under 2048, you wont have any rendering problems. Only if you have more (not recommend )

Yes but if you don't render unecessary faces then you can still keep a higher poly count and not have random faces not render.

This discussion is not pointless. It's a good tip if you want to make higher-quality tracks. But now this discussion doesn't need to continue so...

About high quality tracks. Look at my youtube channel MKDS3.

The DS's hardware can handle maximum 6144 vertexs, which is 2048 triangles, or 1536 quads...

And I do think that games like MKDS can partition the NSBMD into multiple parts so that the only visible ones are rendered. The DS hardware even has a "box test" feature to test if a box is visible onscreen.

If MKDS supports this (which I'm prety sure it does), the hard thing would be partitioning the model. It could either be done automatically by the model importer, or defined manually when making the model... Dunno

Considering SM64DS, the precursor to everything DS-related, supports that, there's no reason MKDS wouldn't.

But the hard part is actually making it. I think it'd have to be done by hand.

Wow! It's amazing how much progress you've made on these custom tracks. It's glitch free as far as I can tell, and it's starting to look like an official course with the correctly textured road. Nice work!

Looks awesome!~ Also it seems texture mapping works better now (only the round turns don't seem properly textured)

BTW, I am really interested into trying mkds hacking.

What did you use to export a .obj file from sketchup into the game/ROM?
I would like to try making some tracks ^^
