Track Making Help
Here are the 3 most asked questions I get for track making.
#1:   In game mini map: 1st you will need FlyRawGui.exe (go on vales and search for it).   Open your track in the editor.   Then press Ctrl+Shift+B   This will make two files in your art folder (under your evo2 main folder)  

big_TRACKNAME.act
big_TRACKNAME.raw

Take both of those and put them in the folder with FlyRawGui.exe then open FlyRawGui and click "raw to bmp" (Or something close to that) then click (in FlyRawGui) big_TRACKNAME.raw.   This will make big_TRACKNAME.bmp in the same folder.   Then open that, resize to 512x512 (you can edit it if you would like to make it a little better) then save it as an uncompressed .tif file named:

_m_TRACKNAME.tif

Copy that and paste it in you art folder (under the evo2 main folder).   Then open your track in the editor and build the POD After all that you are hopefully good to go! Best Wishes!

#2:   Track Image:   Open you evo2 game and run your track.   Get in a good position where you can see the best parts of the track.   Then press the print button on your key board.   Close your game and open paint.   Then press Ctrl+V to paste your picture in the paint program.

resize the picture to 256x256 (but 1st you may wont to make the height and width the same)   Then save as an uncompressed .tif file names TRACKNAME.tif   (256 colors).   Then paste that in your art folder (under the evo2 main folder)  

Open your track in the editor and build the POD Then hopefully it will be in the game.   If it doesn't work its most likely because of the format the .tif file is in.   Best Wishes!

#3:   Programing AIs:   AI:   To make AIs open the editor and load your track in it.   (tip:   When making AIs it is best to wait till the last thing to do).   In the editor run the AI courses.   I would say 3 laps.   Then after you run them all close the editor.   Now Open your evo2 main folder and under that folder find the folder named "ai"   in that folder will be 4 others:

class1
class2
class3
saved

Open the saved folder and you should find 3 of .txt files like this:

TRACKNAME_00m02s35ms.txt

Copy all three and paste them in your class1 class2 and class3 folder.   Then open class1 and change the files you copied in to:

ai_11TRACKNAME.txt
ai_12TRACKNAME.txt
ai_13TRACKNAME.txt  

in class 2:

ai_21TRACKNAME.txt  
ai_22TRACKNAME.txt  
ai_23TRACKNAME.txt  

in class3:

ai_31TRACKNAME.txt  
ai_32TRACKNAME.txt  
ai_33TRACKNAME.txt  

Then open your track in the editor and build the .pod file.   After that they should work!!   Good Luck!
