Polyphony Digital has released the next update for their Gran Turismo 6 title, introducing a brand new track editor.
Unlike the editor in Gran Turismo 5, the new version of the track-creating tool is now tablet-based, allowing GT6 gamers to use their Android or Apple tables to create new tracks for Gran Turismo 6.
Players can choose from one of four basic location settings, allowing them to create tracks with full control over the track’s shape, width and even banking of corners. Other options include the ability to place trackside objects such as trees, buildings and other details around the track.
How To Get Going With The Gran Turismo 6 Track Editor
- Install the Track Path Editor on your tablet device. It???s available in the??Apple App Store(iOS 7+ required) and the??Google Play store??(Android 4.1+ required). Note that the app may not be available in all regions just yet ??? if you don???t see it, just keep checking back.
- Create track data using the Track Path Editor. Using the ???Eifel Flat??? location, you have the option to import photographs of track maps which you can use to help you trace existing roads and circuits. Raw GPX/KML data can also be imported from compatible GPS devices.
- Transfer the track you???ve created into Gran Turismo 6.
- Load the track data using the Track Path Importer.
- Test drive every section of the track using the Track Path Importer.
