Surface type Pit Transparent
Requires no texture
Flip horizontally Apply texture Texture
  • Texture
    • Bit 0: some sort of offset?
      • For normal textures, left index+1 right index-3
      • For transparent, makes it darker?
    • Bits 1-7: pair index, first texture on left, second on right
      • 00000010 is first pair, 00000100 is second pair, etc

Sign type

Value Description
0 tall box
1 tall box, different texture
2 small, back upside down, on one leg
3 small, back upside down, on two legs
4 pair of tall flat rectangles space outwards only visible from center, different texture
5 giant tall folded boxes, different texture
6 giant tall box, different texture
7 WIDE short box
8 cube, different texture
9 flat square, always face camera
10 flat skinny rectangle, always face camera
11 flat small square, fixed, same back
12 fixed flat square, back upside down
13 4 tall skinny boxes
14 tall box with pyramid top, different texture
15 flat square, always face camera, same as 9?
16 fixed flat square, back upside down, same as 12?
>=256 no idea

Values

  • Shoulder height
    • >0: up
    • 0: flat
    • <0: down
  • AI line
    • >0: left
    • 0: center
    • <0: right
  • Grip
    • 0: full grip
    • 12: ice
  • Surface type
    • 524703 590082 590082 appears to define a moving ramp or at least a surface the car can fly off of vertically
  • Outer lower/upper extra wall angle?
    • Not the actual walls
    • >0: outward
    • 0: vertical

Signs

Empty on some tracks.

int
Texture

-1 -1
  • Texture
    • Bit 0: unset is normal
    • Bits 1-7: index in BLD texture file
    • Bit 8: apply texture

Stunts

Controls geometry that moves and potrudes. Empty on some tracks.

  • Scale factor?
    • Increases the length and height of the "ramp"
    • 1 is a bump, 4 starts breaking textures, 6 is huge vertical wall
  • Angle?
    • Lower is flatter, higher becomes trapezoid with longer top
  •  ?
    • No clue
  • Timing group
    • With otherwise identical config, two bumps with same number move together, with 1 and 2 move oppositely

Effects

Bonus 7

  • Swapping yaw and pitch: loop
  • Swapping yaw and roll: twisting line
  • Swapping yaw and pitch, roll 90.00000: vertical ring to the left
  • Negative yaw: turnright
