someone should raise a monument to all the guys who make so much quality stuff for MXB. keep up the good work!

thank you very much for the guide! as soon as i'm mostly asphalt racer and new to dirt bikes, motocross seems hard to me but SX is just impossible hopefully I'll get better with your advices.

not sure if i understand your problem correctly but let's try to do something.

What controller do you use? Gamepad (which one?) or wheel (which one?)?

configuring is simple for any device. if you are a beginner at all then read below.
first of all you should go to Calibration, check the first line - field with arrows < and > - your controller must be selected there.
then you simply push triggers to the max and rotate sticks in all directions several times - if you are using gamepad. similar for wheel, not a big difference.
after that you should bind actions to your device. step by step, click throttle - push the control which you want to be binded as throttle. you can check whether it's binded or not. sometimes I had issue when action was not binded as i wanted - usually because my logitech wheel was also connected, the game just skipped to some other button without waiting for my actual input. if you got the same try to repeat binding several times.

Haha, that's just great! So, now we need some good animation for this.

Oval.. We need speedway bikes for this 

if you saw the videos in this topic http://forum.mx-bikes.com/index.php?topic=1271.0
then all you need is practice. actually i found whipping in MXB easier than in MXS, started doing this well without falling after 3-4 days of practice, but i use gamepad and strongly recommend you to buy one (if you really use keyboard). after some training you will find it's much more enjoyable for sure. good pads i've tested: logitech F310, F710, XBOX360 for PC (but i don't like its very soft triggers and ergonomics), F310 should be the cheapest of three but it's wired. ofc it's not required to stick to this list of devices, you can try to find something similar.

That's a good idea, I would definitely consider some tutorials for riding in general.

To be really fast, the tutorials would have to be from StoneRider lol

that will be much appreciated. i come from autosims where i'm pretty good but mx is another universe and even simple things are not obvious to me. thanks in advance!

The gamepad overlay isn't the greatest and would require a better set-up to make quality vids.. as you can see my resolution was destroyed bc of it.

i think tutorials may be good even without the overlay. like the one from GDUB. for example, i don't know when to lean forward or backward, where to sit or stand, why i need to do this, or how to come fast through ruts. would be cool simply to record some examples where to use weight fw or bw or another tips this way: video may be paused before the example, some text explaining what to do and why appears, then video continues.

Tutorials,
*advanced whips
*specific triples or quads that are hard (neat to watch controls on approach)
*Fastest riders, show a full lap (neat to compared controls)
*watch asdrael do sx
*berm/rut
*and really just whatever utuber/new riders ask about

that would be awesome in any way. I'm noob in mx myself but a big fan of all racing sims, i know how hard to get fun of this type of games but i'm ready for that because i know at the end that it's the best experience in virtual racing, not everyone knows this, many people may be disappointed at first try coz it's so hard comparing to milestone titles (mxgp/mxgp2), even my friends don't want to play this sim being afraid of difficulty and huge amount of efforts to reach good results despite their interest in such type of competition. tutorials could speed up community growing.

meh......yes and no.

yes it needs improved very very badly

no, in that, this is still very very enjoyable to be online with others and race, despite the circumstances. I still find it way more fun than mxsim anyday.

I played supermoto not so long ago with 7 guys, was cool but they all came together and left together as well after setting their hotlaps, so no race
The main thing I dislike in MX Sim is its bunch of weird stability settings which affect your ability to whip\scrub and driving style a lot and they are not related to real life\bike riding in any way, they are just in game help, I did some very hard work to find a good combination, that's damn annoying. So, I'm looking forward to Mx Bikes improvement coz it seems to be more balanced, easy to adapt and, yes, more fun because of more good features.

I think because of ugly netcode. I'm in mx sim until things get better.
