Understanding map scenes
When you create a custom map using the Racetrack Creator, you'll be required to upload images as scenes for your map. Each scene should be uploaded individually, and the Racetrack Creator will stitch each scene together to make up your map.
As an example, here are 6 individual images that could be stitched together to create a map:
Each of these images would need to be uploaded individually into the Racetrack Creator. The Racetrack Creator would then combine each image together to form a cohesive map, like the map below:
Note: Racetrack paths & milestones are added on top of the images you upload. DO NOT include a path or milestone markers in the images you upload.
Preparing your scenes
We suggest gathering all of your images ahead of time so that your custom racetrack creation is a smooth and seamless process. To help you collect and prepare your images, please review the scene specs below.

Number of scenes
A minimum of 3 scenes are required, with a maximum of up to 12 scenes allowed.
