Des Moines Skatepark 1.0.0

murrkus's Des Moines Skatepark from Skater XL, a recreation of Lauridsen Skatepark in Des Moines, Iowa, as a skate map for skate. with ReSkate.

What's in it

  • The whole park and its surroundings as murrkus built them: bowls, snake run, ledges, rails, stair sets, the red Wow sculpture, the entrance arch, the river walk and the shops along the street.
  • murrkus's own collision, taken from the map's Unity colliders, not from the visible meshes.
  • Grind edges from murrkus's Skater XL grind setup, as grind curves where the collision has no sharp edge of its own.
  • The original textures, colours, normal maps and see-through foliage, capped at 1024 pixels.

Notes

  • skate. lights the map with its own sun. murrkus's baked lighting (lightmaps) doesn't carry over, so shaded areas look darker and flatter than in Skater XL.
  • The river is a flat blue with ripples. The original water shader has no equivalent here.
  • Invisible walls keep you inside the playable area.

Install Des Moines Skatepark

You need ReSkate and your own copy of skate. on Steam.

  1. Open ReSkateLauncher.exe and go to MODS.

  3. Press PLAY. In game, the MODS tab of the ReSkate menu (Insert) turns it on and off.

Or install it by hand: download the .zip and drop it on the launcher window, or unzip it into its own folder in Mods\ beside Skate.exe.
