The Indian track Chungara Lake boasts a 19,000-strong flock of pink flamingos, all behaving independently of each other.ġ8. One of the India tracks features a tea plantation with a sprinkler system that turns off and on at set times during the day.ġ7. You’ll see flies and butterflies only during the day, and moths and bats only at night.ġ6. Wildlife is realistically tied into the day/night cycle. The team consulted botanists at Kew Gardens to learn which plants would naturally grow in each location.ġ5. There are more than 100 different varieties of trees, bushes, mosses, and flowers. Some tracks boast more than 1.2 million road-side trees - and this number keeps going up as the artists try to out-do each other as development progresses.ġ4. The team sampled the color and intensity of individual streetlights, house lights, and even camera flash bulbs, which you’ll see best in any of the Indian tracks at night.ġ3. All environmental light sources are independently generated with different properties. Distant landscapes are built out and fully modelled, instead of “painted on,” to ensure that they support the dynamic, volumetric nature of the skies and lighting.ġ2. Each location has a draw distance of up to 200km to the horizon and even simulates the curvature of the earth in both skies and terrain. Stones and bitumen are all placed and then rendered procedurally to give realistic surface detail with huge visual variety and no repeating detail on any road surface.ġ1. Road tarmac textures are hand-modelled rather than tiled or tessellated. They captured thousands of photos and recordings along the way, in all weather conditions and different times of day.ġ0. The team spent weeks out on location and covered a minimum of 200km every day to get a feel for each country’s roads and atmosphere. High resolution NASA data was used to accurately map landscapes and mountain formations - which were then tweaked to ‘improve’ on their natural beauty and make them perfect for high-speed racing.ĩ. Waves and rippling on the surface of lakes is dynamically linked to wind speed, which affects how clear reflections are in the water.Ĩ. This is then converted into a ground wind speed which accurately interacts with all vegetation, overhead cables and other environmental features, based on their height from the ground.ħ. Clouds react dynamically to different wind speeds. Both of which will be completely different to each other.Ħ. With some circuits taking over a couple of minutes per lap, at 60x accelerated speed with a judicious choice of start time, it’s possible to experience two sunrises and sunsets in one race. You can play with settings to speed up or slow down the day/night cycle. Unless you’re replaying somebody’s challenge, in which case it’ll replicate exactly to ensure a level playing field.ĥ. Skies are uniquely generated every time you play, so just like in real life you’ll never see the same sky twice. They’re calculated at massive distances in a fully volumetric form, so thin clouds cast lighter shadows than dense storm clouds, and their color impacts the feel of the landscapes and cars.Ĥ.

All clouds are full 3D models to ensure accurate light diffusion from the sun. If you’re lucky, you’ll get to see the northern lights - it’s possible to see the aurora borealis from the northern tracks in Norway, Scotland, and Canada.ģ. NASA data was used to accurately map out the night sky - so wherever you are in the world you’ll see the correct star constellations for your location.Ģ.
