A question for Madcowie.  As a current MXGP player it makes me curious  what are some of  your best laptimes on that game. They must be rediculously fast since you find it so easy. Just trying to find what the top players in the world can run.

Fair point and good question. Honest answer I haven't a clue and to be honest I based my summary on the fact that I dont fall off enough and ride far too many clean laps. Also I have crap internet where I live so I cant race online with it but I certainly dont expect to be the fastest. Therefore I have been playing career mode and so far haven't found a challenge. Having said that I haven't played it for weeks as its abit boring!

Taken a big step back in my opinion. I know its ment to be arcadey and despite alot of comments I have read about Reflex been good physics I actually preferred Alives. I know its ment to be arcadey but at the end of the day if you over jump a jump by 20 feet and land on a up slope you wanna fall off or if you land at 90 degrees you should go flying. If its flatout all the way round that wont entertain a 5 year old! Cant see it changing a right lot between now and release in September. Maybe next years might be good! After all despite it been crap Milestones effort this year was alot better than last years. Anyway balls to them games! Lets play MX Bikes soon!

Yeah Nordic bought the title and by the looks of it and destroyed it. Having said that I will probably still play it as its abit of sit down relaxing fun on the couch rather than in the office on the PC.

Dont imagine it to not have errors. After all it will be a Alpha/Beta/WIP game to start with! Whatever he wants to call it!!!

If Milestones game is bad, just think how crap this one is! My god these physics are terrible. You can land at 90 degrees and not fall off!

if riding a bike was that easy I would be world champion)

I still wouldn't lol. Man that game sucks. Makes reflex look amazing lol

I think it actually looks really nice but the physics as so much for the consoles. For arguments sake can you imagine if it handled similar to MX simulator. My god the public would go nuts in a bad way. RBR is still considered one of the best simulators of all time and especially when it comes to rallying. But that game didn't sell well because it was too realistic. Its hard to please everyone. Yeah I am a simulator type of guy but I do still enjoy playing arcade racing games. You respect it for what its ment to be. Having said that Milestones is too easy and therefore it borders on boring!

1 whole page on whips! I will be just happy if its good progress when its released. Dont expect miracles in the first release but do expect updates in the future until its as near as perfect! I dont envy his task trying to please you lot! So many people will have so many opinions and at best you just have to go with the majority for room for improvements.

When it is released make sure you can do 5 clean laps before you have an opinion. If I had said my opinion on MX simulator in the first week it wouldn't of been too high. But with practice it becomes enjoyable. Remember this is a sim and therefore its not going to be easy.

Also the community will make this game grow by delivering great tracks and bikes.

I think we might need a good oval with a couple of jumps to practice to start with.

Support this mans fantastic skills and appreicate what he is bringing to us as no games company will be creating an MX sim in the near future. (Milestones effort doesnt count, if riding a bike was that easy I would be world champion)

I made a wrong turn in life when I chose Paintshop over Photoshop but 10 years ago Paintshop was so much easier! These days I think they are pretty similar but I battle on with Paintshop.

So like many of you I have been playing around with the track editing for this awesome game hopefully 

And having got a few things working I eventually stumbled across the problem that Paintshop wont save 16bit RAW Files. So I searched Google for hours last night and didnt find any answers then today I eventually stumbled on the answer. Whats more its a free to use program and its easy to do.

So your heightmap, save it as a PNG
Download L3DT http://www.bundysoft.com/L3DT/downloads/standard.php
Install
Launch
Import PNG
Export active map layer as a RAW file

Thats it, should now work. I thought I had it working properly just using paintshop to start with but then noticed it was repeating itself around the map. If anyone knows how to do it in just paintshop please let me know as cutting this procedure out would speed up the process.

Meanwhile have fun editing and cant wait to try your tracks out for this game.
