Seems like dropbox is not liking that.
If you want to, I can upload it into my massive MXB OneDrive folder.

if you want(since its a little dick around plug in for fun). if you could link me to that giant onedrive folder that would be awesome as well lol, thank you.

Nice, can this still work if you don't actually use the XBox device to control the bike?

if you have a playstation controller you can use DS4Windows and it will. i used XInput and im not sure how compatible it is with things others than xbox controller :/

got bored, makes your xbox controller vibrate according to the rpm's, low rpms = low vibration, the higher the rpm's the more intense the vibration cause why not

port over alot of tracks from sim. ive been bringing over tracks like dreamland, ride365, black mesa and a few of my own into MXB with just quick crappy textures drawn. a few small mini series races, maybe a race once a week for 3 weeks or so for fun, each on random tracks that get ported over or made for it.

Yesterday i was tinkering around with making an output plugin along with UDP and everything went smoothly. im curious about the drawing functions and what they would generally be used for and how to use them. is it something that would perhaps have a second window(such as if you did allocconsole with an injected .dll into a program) to where i could draw with winapi or opengl? or is it better just to stick with udp and draw via a separate program?

export as fbx and use the tool

I've made a dark mode, you can activate it in your forum profile.
Let me know if you find any problems!

thank you for this, it makes browsing the forums much more pleasant at night.

There was absolutely no feedback from anyone, very low views, and now that it's gone it is all the sudden a big deal?

I won't be finishing the series, so didn't want to leave it out there unfinished and hence why I removed.

while it is your choice whether or not to keep videos up that help people, your head is not really in the right place. you dont make tutorials for a small community for praise and views, you do it to help the people looking to learn. heck i have 12.2 hours worth of tutorials up on my channel, very few have over 300 views and several dont even have 100. i didnt stop making them because i didnt get a thank you or high view counts, and i sure as heck didnt remove them over the same reason(which is quite ignorant to do imo). all removing them would do is prevent someone from having a good source of information and possibly make them give up altogether on whatever it is their trying to do. heres a thought, get over any pettiness you have and make the videos public so others can learn from them and contribute to the community and possibly help it grow. if you had videos with such low views, why would you even care about having an unfinished series up?

just to show im not kidding about the amount of work for the small view count

Im not quite sure where this thread belongs since its just a simple tool, but this was created just to save some annoyance for myself/friends who are new to the game so they dont have to manually create the folders. If you already have some of the folders then it will not replace them or the contents inside.

This will create the necessary sub directories for your bikes/rider(Sub folders)/tracks in your MX Bikes directory.

scottland?

hey dumba** your first thread about this got moved to the support board for a reason

then make it

I'm not bashing you at all.. And dont take anything I say personally because its never personal with me..

What I'm trying to understand is why  in the MX gaming community files are kept so secret and secure from the public.. I understand that if you spend money on something that you would want to secure it(which I didn't know you did with the drone scans until now BTW). But let's talk about on more general terms. Guys do private releases for content. As a creator its their content and its up to them but this community is so small as it is and from what I have seen there is always solid feedback and for the most part guys are responsible enough to not jack someone's hard work without asking them so why not release the hard work to the public? I mean even if you charged per download that would be better than only releasing to 4 people privately or just leaving the files on a HDD to never be seen again.

I can understand stopping guys from working on a completed mod and modifying it further even though I personally wouldn't mind with proper credit. That could be a big issue though when you paid for your data.

But as Gdub said I'm just excited to see new content and its kinda deflating when the mods start to stagnate.

I look at other modding communities and they are true communities. Creators share their mods, work on mods together, give modding challenges to each other and they don't(for the most part) really mind other people changing their mods as long as they give the proper credit because at the end of the day they know its only to make the game that they love better and more enjoyable.. *end rant*

please go back and reread what he was talking about. i stated i was the one who ported it over to MXB to test it and see how it rode, then someone asked me to release it publicly. Sandbiter was against me releasing HIS work. Its not mine at all. hopefully that cleared it up a bit.

i put the ww scanned version from MXS into mxb with little adjustments to the overall scale of the track and it rode beautifully. we definitely need some

Did you release it publicly?? Would you release it publicly??

take a look at the bike release section, people post other peoples models without even giving them credits. even with giving them credits, if they didnt get approval to do so and they still release it, well thats just a dick move. not my track, not my call to control a release of the track.

We'll be working on the lean angle thing asap.

As for these drone scans... They are just awesome, but I just don't understand how the whole thing works. It seems to be a subscription but... What do I get? Do I have to buy a drone? Do I have to hire someone else who has a drone?

Sandbiter I tried WW Ranch in MXS, but the scale seems too big.

I'd be super interested to get some scans into MXB. If anyone knows of a way then let me know!
