Ghost car appearing in wrong track

Post by danodude »

Hi guys, just thought I'd point out what looks very much like a bug :P

In the following video, I have a brand new map & no ghost records on it. As you can see, there is a ghost car that drives around in the sky before crashing on the ground lol.

Let me know if you guys have seen the same thing.

P.S. I don't know if this is in the right section. Sorry if it isn't :oops:

Probably an imported ghost in the mediatracker?

You're not the first one, danodude.

A few weeks ago, I observed the same phenomenon in Canyon. I built a new track from scratch and suddenly, while testing the track (Enter mode), this ghost car appeared and followed an unvisible track in the sky. It couldn't be a ghost from an earlier state of my track, because I didn't built any track parts this high. The ghost car always drove the same path and disappeared forever after a validating run.

I didn't report this strange bug because I couldn't reproduce it and it never occured again.

I've seen that before but only when I've built some track, recorded a ghost, the redesigned the track deleting some parts, but never on new built tracks. FUNNY! :lol:

I've had people tell me this happened before, but I haven't experienced it myself. It's quite funny indeed.
