Wait, you can just shove STK maps into Speed Dreams? That seems wrong :thinking:

[laughs] Doing a one-to-one port from STK to SD would basically be impossible due to the differing technical structure of tracks in both games. SD relies on a system of lefts, rights, and straights that define both the track route *and* its collision/physics geometry, whereas nearly all other games set waypoints on a 3D model that players and bots drive through to progress.

So as a result, you can port a SD track to STK but not the other way around functionally

I just took a tree model

Spm plugin in stk repo

You use blender

https://github.com/supertuxkart/stk-blender

But I can export the .blend for you

Let me try it

This trees also uses transparencies

It uses two textures

I haven't tested it, but I think this type of trees would have a very big impact on performance.

Might want to look into one of [these](https://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_nkw=hp+elitedesk+800+g4+sff&_sacat=0) personally. ✏

You could try https://polyhaven.com/ and https://ambientcg.com/ for CC0 assets, but those will grind Leillo's poor Core 2 Duo to a halt. ✏

I have a amd ryzen 5800x with a 3070 and 32gb

Is good to know about how SD (and others) works in old machines

The PC I described some hours ago is used only for testing purposes ✏
