Animations will be done and i will update this post when they are completed. dirt maps are not perfect but alot better then the old rmz. Also has some strange pure black errors when i apply shaders to some spots ( all on 1 uv map does not make sense to me ) but anyways enjoy. Sorry for big file sizes everything is 4k i like my quality lol if its too much to handle i will consider doing a 2k upload

Bikes / How To Import A Bike Model [Tutorial]
June 25, 2018, 04:25:45 PM
I hope this helps people with importing a bike into the game, i know not much info is out and can be a little confusing at first. Its rather really simple once you figure out ;) . Alot of my info came from Pib's Official Tutorial but its rather bland when it comes to extra detail. there are also alot of other great information about setting up bikeed that i will not go threw but link for everyone. 

http://docs.piboso.com/wiki/index.php/Bike_Creation_Guide

First you want to prepare the 3d model. You will want to separate your mesh into 8 parts steer, fsusp, rsusp, chassis, frontbrake_lever, clutch_lever, rearbrake_lever, gear_lever.

DO NOT MOVE YOUR MESH LIKE MINE SHOWN THIS IS JUST TO SHOW THE PARTS AND WHAT IS IN EACH.




After you have seperated your mesh. download the bike template and get the mxb_export_template.blend. append your model into the template blend file. scale your model to match the template the best you can. after scaling your mesh to the template you will want to go into edit mode on each of your parts on YOUR bike model and deselect everything.



next go into edit mode on the part that that you will be joining your mesh to. so Steer matches with Steer. the template model Steer you want to select all the faces and go back into object mode



now notice i have selected the my bike first then the template bike.. that is extremely important without that this will never work haha.now hit ctrl J to join the mesh. go into edit mode the template model mesh should be selected. delete that and go back into object mode. that piece then should be finished move on to the next. sometimes if you delete the mesh in edit mode you may have to tab out of edit mode and delete the template mesh object ( idk if i had double appended mine into my project or not so really sure ). after you have done that to all the pieces of your mesh you can now apply your diffuse texture .tga to your model by going apply a texture to the material before export. each number of diffuse maps you will use you need to have a material for that.





once all that is done you are ready to export. export .FBX and in the settings to the left set path mode to copy and make sure you have all of your mesh select for export. export your mesh into your project folder as setting your path mode to copy creates a .fbx file and a .fbm folder.



now that your mesh is ready and you have you folder we are ready to setup shaders and get the bike in game. inside the .fbm folder you will place your dirt layers, normal, spec and optionally reflection map. create a blank text file and name it the same name as your texture in the .fbm folder. should go as following Official.tga, Official_n.tga,  Official_s.tga, Official_r.tga each standing for its respective map. inside the text file put a example code as the following

specular
{
    shininess = 35
map = Offical_s.tga
}

reflection
{
    factormin = 0.0
    factormax = 0.15
    factorexp = 0.25
map = Offical_r.tga
}

bump
{
map = Offical_n.tga
}


now inside of your normal map you need to make a new layer inside the CHANNELS of photshop. inside the that layer paste your spec map in. and your spec and reflection map should be standard. black meaning less and white meaning more. now that we have all of our maps setup its time to run fbx2edf. open your model up and use the settings here



hit run and the file will save to the path specified in export_script.ini make sure you wait till you see ending log before you close out. that is your model.edf use this method for the rest of the models. for the rest on how to import the bike reference the official tutorial from piboso linked at the top. hope this helps out with some of the confusion.

Bug Reports / Rider Lean
November 10, 2017, 06:45:35 AM
Rider lean seems to be bug left and right, visually he seems to lean but as far as effecting bike, its non existent.. if you stand still and lean left or right, or even ride straight you will notice the rider moves but the bike stays static . could be a big problem with turning physics. reason why i dont even use the rider l/r lean i never felt and change

Tracks / Florida Tracks and Trails Pro Track [Release]
February 27, 2017, 12:23:38 AM




today we bring to you Florida Tracks and Trails Pro Track. track is mixture of 3 different types of soil/dirt, so it makes for great racing. super fun track to shred laps on and deformation works amazing on it :) . Track heightmap and finish building was done by me, finishing up and textures were done by Asdrael, and geo did camera and marshals. badstar had started on textures but we eventually come up with the idea to have Astradel do them..

December 27, 2016, 05:30:44 PM



With the release of beta 5 and the completion of my model i figured it would be the best time to get it in game :).. but with my hectic time schedule i was not able to, but thanks to RC for hooking me up and doing it for me.. all the physics and everything like that goes to him.. just made the model itself and the textures.. there is no dirt maps so if you wanted to make your own you can.. maybe in the skin pack update i will do a dirt map.. everyone enjoy the model as i have take alot of time on making it the best i can :)..

Bikes / 2017 Suzuki Rmz [Release]
October 10, 2016, 11:37:11 AM





Well its about time i got everything pretty much figured out. i understand the model is not 100% accurate but i am fairly proud with the outcome. Inside you will find the template and in game files. as far as future updates come see the following.

You can purchase the model file to put on any extra aftermarket parts for - 75$
- Purchasing the model will give you all future part updates that i will have such as pipes,seats,after market plastics, etc...


I hope with doing the release like this will allow everyone to enjoy the bike with what is being released. and if you really want the bike to be more of your own, want the model to do with how you please. i hope everyone enjoys the model as i have put tons of hours into it, i understand the chain isnt 100% lined up and the hands could be better.

thanks to everyone who had helped me with my constant annoyance about questions and me being generally dumb.
Thank you to cocow over on the mx simulator forums for skinning the Japan Spy Bike,Stock Bikes and Jason Pama for the the RCH and Yoshimura Bike

Sorry for such a large download files contains 2 bikes, a template, and 4 skins for each bike  ;D ;D

Suggestions and wishlist / Thoughts on Replicated Series
September 18, 2016, 07:55:33 AM
For awhile now i have thought of creating a website dedicated to finding online matches / organizing races / racing dedicated repliaca series.
i have a small team that has discussed hosting and replicating the new outdoor series and if net code gets fixed before then maybe a small super cross series. We have also discussed how the classes should be setup and ran.This post i will sort of list out my idea's on setting it up and the rules and regulations that it will have. if people agree and like this then i will take it a step more and get this all started.

Bike Regulations

- Geom Files will be set according to bike creator.
- Custom Bikes are allowed but if engine file is changed it will be replaced with a engine file of race regulation (125cc,144cc,250cc,350cc,450cc,500cc ).
- Bike Engine Files will be created by us ( Piboso engine based, some races may require engine not made by them and will then be made by us ) .

Series

- Individual may request to post race series ( on website ) .
- Individual may request to host race series ( on website ).
- Website will host the main motocross race series ( AMA Supercross & Motocross, MXGP, Other ) .

Replica Race Series

- Will have track release 1 day prior to race date.
- Practice / Live Timing will be ran according to the real thing.
- Race format and length will be according to the real thing.
- Deformation and Collision will be turned on.


Leave your comments on what you thing can be added or changed.

>>> 18.03.2017 : Beta 6 update : Suzuki Pack v2.0 <<<

Here is the Suzuki 2016 motocross range updated for Beta 6.

Standard bikes
  • Chassis flex values added
OEM bikes
  • Chassis flex values added
  • 4 strokes: different engine maps added, based on the different couplers coming with the bike. Warning: bullshit detected. Couplers change fuel mix which we can't control here, so instead I changed the dyno map slightly, similarly to the CRF "Modes". Expect a difference in behaviour you can feel, but not enough to give an obvious all around winner.
    • No Coupler: Stock hp curve, rather full at low RPMs but limited at high RPMs.
    • White Coupler: Spreads the power delivery more smoothly over all the RPM range. Longer, more manageable pull.
    • Grey Coupler: Tightens the engine, shifting more of its power to the high RPMs. Faster revving, harder hitting.

Necessary Geo Tyre Mod for the OEM bikes to work.


As always, let me know if anything is out of whack. Enjoy!

Huge thanks to
Ike ( TheFatController ) for feedback and helping me on getting a normal map setup
StoneRider for setting up the model for us to enjoy
Ankle o' Steel for setting up the model aswell and countless weeks of me spam messaging him questions

Hey guys subject pretty much says it all.. what content would you like to see with the game? i can make decent tracks ( For sim at least never tried for mxb). i can skin some gear packs,boots,helmets. all that. or even try and import some models ive made. feel like this community is grasping for content and i kinda would like to fix it.

General Discussion / Mx Bikes Modeling
February 25, 2014, 02:38:50 AM
Hey guys, wanted to start off saying this game is looking amazing and cant wait to try it out/ make things for it :). What i wanted to know was how would importing models work? would you name things for a certain bike class like Mx Simulator Did?, Will you be able to make custom physics for the said bike to make like 50's, 85's, etc.., Also with rider models, Will we be able to model neck braces and other small parts for the rider? Sorry for all the questions and i bet half of them were already answered..
