Yes I agree but the first race tomorrow isnt it? As we hadnt gotten a specific date for the new dynos the teams wanted to get some skins out there for A1. Most packs were posted earlier this week so it wasnt like they were released terribly far in advance .

I'm fairly sure it's tonight, but as long as you have them I'n the thread at least 3-5 hours before hand I'm fairly sure people would still download them. I think for nationals Kellen would download skins 2 hours before the race at the latest so he had time to set up.

Changes:
Now automatically deletes triangles with no area when loading models.

Would you be able to explain this? Most of the models I run have faces that have disappeared, thanks JLV.

Thanks for the update jlv, always nice to have something new added.
Do the new dynos have different geometry or will they handle the same as the 2016s?

All bikes handle the same...

Bikes getting faster is a factor in real life too. As mitch payton says, no longer are the days when its impressive to jump a triple on a lites bike like it was back in the 125 days. Its a fact of life. Making rediculous up scaled tracks isnt the solution.

First step is add powerbands into the game. You can give these 450s a 1/4 throttle in this game and spin out. The game feels like you get 50hp right off idle. My kx450 in real life doesnt do that and Its equipped with an auto clutch too so its close to what is used in game. Truthfully with an auto clutch there should never be as much wheel spin in game as there is. The entire design of that clutch is meant to lower wheel spin.

Second step is to reduce the distance between berms and the first jump of a rythm section and then do the same between jumps in the rythm section. This will make timing more important and will not allow such a long run up time to a jump to so stupid unrealistic lines.

If those dont suit your fancy, youre going to have to accept the fact that the bikes are getting faster just like they do IRL.

nah 16's are different from the years before. If you can't tell that from riding them you are a potato.

Jlv care to weigh in?

I did hear somewhere that the bikes handle the same, but feel very different due to differences in power. But I'm 100% positive there is no way the 16's are the same.

Every year the same thing. Kids are sooooo sure they're right about traction or bike geometry.

the new crf450 is nice

Excuse me Havoc but I'm one with my bike every god damn dyno mate, I don't even let go of the bars when I crash.

I'm 100% sure you're wrong.


On another note. Always cool to see some updates JLV.
I'm all for bigger scales if the bikes get faster.
It's nice not to feel like I'm ass to mouth with everyone. Plus I have more fun when I don't have to time rhythm sections because I'm washed up.

Hey! Good to see you're alive! You can still ride? I hope you can get another championship. Goooo Mikeyyyyyy!
