Detailed Track Displays and basic outlines

Recognise the difference between a detailed frozen map and an available basic track path.

0.7.2-beta37 · code95 · Development candidate, not released Public Beta. Physical PS5/PS5 Pro and sustained GT7 checks remain open.

Where: Loaded LAB map; see five completed detailed Track Display projects and one basic-outline example below.

How to use it

  1. A supported detailed Track Display can include approved pavement, paint and other explicitly modelled elements. The current gallery uses Tsukuba Circuit, Broad Bean Raceway, High Speed Ring, Blue Moon Bay Speedway and Northern Isle Speedway.
  2. For another supported layout, a basic outline/owned lap path can still give useful spatial context without detailed pavement or semantic features.
  3. Use Session details → Edit details to review a wrong track identification. Confirm the correction for that Session; entering an unknown name does not manufacture a detailed asset.
  4. Treat the start/finish display according to its evidence. A lap-counter transition alone is not universal proof of a geometric crossing.
  5. When a detailed display is unavailable, use the retained trace as basic spatial context rather than assuming that pavement and kerbs have been modelled.

Options and defaults

This workflow uses the explicit actions described above; it introduces no additional saved setting or automatic default.

Operating principle and expected output

The map asset, your trace and reference are separate layers. Northern Isle’s frozen unified MAIN/PIT surface and approved retained paint remain unchanged; no missing kerb or pit marking is invented for this manual. Forward/Reverse bindings reuse the canonical physical asset where implemented.

When output is absent or limited

Detailed displays are not available for every circuit. An outline is not a road-edge measurement or an approved optimal line. Blue Moon Bay Speedway is a completed detailed map project. Automatic recognition and physical acceptance remain separate checks. Renderer captures are not physical GT7 or Android acceptance.

Map completion and availability

Beta37 availability: Blue Moon Bay is not part of the standard LAB map catalogue in this candidate. Its completed geometry is shown here using the Android map renderer.

Five detailed track-map projects are completed: Tsukuba Circuit, Broad Bean Raceway, High Speed Ring, Blue Moon Bay Speedway and Northern Isle Speedway. Autopolis International Racing Course is a separate Basic track outline example, not a sixth detailed map.

The five completed map projects and the Autopolis basic outline show two different levels of detail. Map completion does not by itself establish automatic recognition or physical validation. Track LAB remains experimental.

A map image alone cannot establish successful live GT7 track recognition or physical validation.

Gallery image provenance

The five existing gallery images retain their original provenance. Three detailed views and Autopolis use imported OWNER Sessions in the unchanged beta37 emulator; Northern Isle is renderer-only. Blue Moon Bay is a retained native Android renderer-only capture, without a Session or application controls. Image dimensions, methods and SHA-256 hashes.
