Personal Experience:
After trying this for myself, I can vouch that this does work. With fantastic results, might I add.
I've come up with a simple solution that Frontier can add to make this method/process go much quicker.

Suggestions:
1. Add a hotkey that will move your track selection forward or backward along the track. This will do the same thing as grabbing the <> symbol and sliding it.
2. Add a hotkey for "Smooth All" & "Smooth Banking".

Result:
Easy peasy lemon squeezy, we've just taken a process that takes at lest an hour, and made it something that can be done in minutes.

Or, you know, fix the whole smoothing problem altogether so we don't need to resort to these kinds of tricks. :]

Yeah, the Smoothing tool* needs more work.

(*Or as I like to call it: The banking removal or helix destruction tool)

 

[mitterdoo]

in addition to hotkeys, why not also add a button that does all of this tedious work for you?
maybe add a "Hypersmooth" button that does the entire smoothing process on the currently selected segments (provided there are at least four selected)

if they can't improve the smoothing tool, they could add this button instead because it has real great results

this "Hypersmooth" tool could also have settings to change how many times the process is done on the selected segments, which is four times in the video

I can actually get behind this!
