The rider in the game can't anticipate what you're about to do so he has to be in a more neutral position and react after the fact.

Well hot damn you just found your next project!

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


this is me dont hate this first time ever on a big bike

but thats what i think the arms should look like
sorry if the pics 2 big

I know what you mean but it wouldn't look good in the game. In real life you anticipate and get into position beforehand. The rider in the game can't anticipate what you're about to do so he has to be in a more neutral position and react after the fact.

if you could go in the middle of this and the last one it would probably be pretty good.

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.

hey jlv not to rush u or nothing but didnt you tell me after the 1.2 update you were going to start working on the 450s. just asking not trying to rush you or anything also this new rider positioning is the shit man.. ow and thanx for another snapshot this month.. ur the bomb
edit* how do i make the rider stick his leg out around corners becuase my guy just turns unless im about to hit the ground and going 5 mph if im going fast he dont stick his leg out he just falls ????????

[Garasaki]

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!!!

[mxbiker]

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

[Vellu]

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. )

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

[markm32]

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.

And people dont already have enough buttons to press as it is

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 !
