Hah. MXS would have a rider that anticipated what is coming... If JLV managed to do that, I think we'd be on a whole other level of AI. I was thinking just having the rider more upright when the leg is out. I'm not saying goon it like that on straights and the air, but your the developer, I'm sure you know how all this works together better than I.

I think that 24 was better 25. I'd rather see a rider with his elbows up then down. There are 2 things i think should be done to make him look better in the corner.
1) DJ said this before and im saying it again that the leg should be infront of him when hes turning.
2)He should have his inside elbow lower then his outside, this is to give him a more relaxed look, kinda like this

Have you watched from the front view? To me it looks like they're still a little high when you aren't in the rear chase view.
your right from the front it looks pretty right on but definitely dont move his arms down anymore.

I really like this leg stuff.

I had been using march 02 snapshot up till yesterday.

I thing it all seems very natural and not really all that awkward. Good job!!!

i think the arms can be a bit more up not like the earlyer snapshot but a litlle less, that would be cool 8)

Maybe a slider to the menu for rider posture, since everyone doesn't seem to agree about the elbows (or maybe not, soon there's like million sliders for like lenght of your schlong etc etc. :lol: )

I think the elbows are great right now, even at the startgates it looks really realistic.

Hey JLV. Probably should put this in the suggestion topic but oh well. Maybe on the next snap, you could include something like a control for putting the leg out, like we can control lean and all that now. Just a thought. For the determination of which leg, which ever way the bike is leaning or the bars are turned that leg goes out.

sorry JLV, i don't like this last, the elbows are so low... maybe on the picture on the top here the riders is like this, but i've never seen a pro mx rider with low elbows... Before u change the rider position, it was better !
