Hi, i was dowloading some track but now my SSD is full so i was wondering if i can change the mods folder to my second hardware, where the game is installed ?
YES YOU CAN!!! make a folder inside your MXBikes folder called bikes and place all your Mod Bikes in it. You can do the same with your (rider) and (tyres) folders as well.
Thank you very much :)
I don't know if it will affect your steam account if you bought the game via steam but if it is a regular MXBikes download from MXBikes page you will be okay.

Oh no please don't do it that way! It's the second most unorganized way out there.
Please edit your global.ini located in "My Documents/PiBoSo/MX Bikes/" according to this thread, section "mods": http://forum.mx-bikes.com/index.php?msg=35071 (should redirect you to the mods how-to)
This setting works completely for Steam and standalone version.
I still use all my mods in the install dir, works fine for me :)

He doesn't want anything on his SSD drive that is why I told him to put it in his install folder on a different drive.

That's what the thread shows, on how to change the mod path to a whole different location or drive...

i just wanna say i tried doing that, but it didnt work. none of my mods were activated when i started the game. what could be the issue then?
what is the location of your new mods folder and what did you put in your global.ini? just so we can see what you see
I used Link Shell Extension to change where my mods folder is at, it's a free program and really easy to do symbolic links.

Absolutely not necessary... http://forum.mx-bikes.com/index.php?msg=35071
There's an INI option for that 😄
