I still got 3D scans of Unadilla, Budds Creek, Highpoint and WW Ranch (which will probably be the Florida track). I feel like Highpoint could use an update and perhaps Fats is interested in Unadilla's scan, if WW Ranch will be an AMA track I'm willing to get on it.
I was interested in WW Ranch, but it looks like the layout will be changed considerably

I've created it for Mx Sim before, done with the 3D scans. It shouldn't be too hard to port over for me.
If you want you can go for it, just saying that it might be a waste of time after all.

ported it over a long time ago to play on and it actually rode very very well without any alterations. alot of sim tracks do with just small adjustments here and there, and with RF/EMF making outdoor tracks smooth to work alongside JLV's erode it should be fairly easy to port over to MXB(minus the decals/object placements(never done objects so not sure how long/difficult it is))

It'd be great to have a guide on porting mx sim tracks (with permission of course), always nice to have more track variety.
But if they change the layout the scan will be pretty useless surely?
It's possible to convert the 3d scan (obj) into a heightmap.

MXB Central is no longer running. New site here: mx bikes mod site (https://mxb-mods.com/) . You will need to register (free) in order to download and upload contents.
Ok............So guys I have to say thankyou, BUT, NBC SN needs a sim with high end graphics and not just the track, no disrespect Piboso it is about visuals for a major companies viewers. Unfortunately there is NO product that fulfils all of the criteria they require, but visuals for them is of utmost importance. Due to this I feel guilty having wasted your time, BUT they did look and think formost of using MXB, that says a lot to start with. Open GL and no background visuals play a big part in this. They do however recognise MXB as the first chioce if it was only to do with the physics and input/output for controllers and motion systems. So well done Piboso for at least having that status to a major company.
Thanks to all for your help. I will put it to good use one way or another.

Definitely not. I doubt they'll flatten the entire terrain just for an AMA race. Pretty sure most of the major jumps will stay.

You work for NBC?
I cant say much at the moment but I have been asked on their behalf to look into something for the 2020 MX/SX championships.
DD
It sure would have been nice to have been involved in any discussions, since it's up to us to license the software and because we may have been able to customize it to their needs.
DD REally? Surely you should connect Piboso and NBC? Snappe has already said its ultimately their decision
I asked about the tracks before starting a major conversation with piboso purely to see if the tracks were here as I dont do MXB until now. I was gathering information thats all. I think I know that if anyone decided they wish to use GPB or MXB in public and commercially I would tell them THEY need to contact Piboso and would also talk to Piboso myself. I think if anyone between the forums supports and attempts to promote Piboso's sims it is myself. I always try to push his sims and I always have the utmost respect for Piboso if It comes to the point of someone wanting to use his products.
Sorry if that has never been clear enough.

I'm surprised it wasn't MXS tbh

Look at that and let it soak in...that has to be a joke!?! As much as we'd all love a marriage of MXS physics and online with MXB's everything else especially graphics, we can't. It's common among many other genres, one has this and the other has that. We need more time and patience. It's already a niche sport in a super niche game with a two person dev team. MXS has one. A watched pot never boils. If you got nuthin' better to do, then knock yourself out. I just got done with some beautiful DiRT Rally 2.0 and highly recommend it!

I think you missed the point of this thread and went on a bit of a tangent pizzachet.

I think this game is amazing as it is in Beta 10c. The physics are by far more realistic then MXS, and so are the graphics. It sure is harder, but little small changes to the physics about rider movement would make the game even better. For those who don't appreciate the physics in this game shouldn't be playing it.

There are many reasons why MXS should not be called a simulator.3 examples off the top of my head are,
1)The front tire does nothing to the track, The dev could not figure out how to have both tires erode and carve a path on the track while keeping the game playable so he just disabled the front tire from doing any thing to the track.
2)The track does not change until the bike has left the area so you never get the feeling of riding on dirt, its more like riding on dirt colored rocks.
3)You have to shift up to 5th in mid air on every jump because it levels out the bike. Just feels fake.
These first two reasons sound like your psychological response to these features once you discovered them instead of a physics simulation issue. The shifting gripe is kinda petty since it's not really a problem. Each title has something the other doesn't. That's my point.

Every time I state these 3 facts about MXS I never get a well thought out response that could change my mind. I welcome a different point of view and would take it seriously but it seems like the only response I ever get is akin to some one sticking their fingers in their ears and saying any thing to brush off these criticisms with out discussing them. Just a waste of time to continue this conversation
Fair enough. I just rode Unadilla in MXB yesterday and the erode is pretty much as you described MXS. It was there the next lap.

The graphics are good enough on the replay and that's all you need it looks incredible compared to MX Sim and they are being featured on Racer X. You just spoke to the wrong people you needed to speak with Feld and they would have jumped at the chance but PiBoSo would have had to pay to use the tracks just like Milestone so before you go pitching ideas remember that plus you have to pay gear companies and possibaly sponsors. Its a mess I work in the moto media industry.
