Replace mx.exe or mxbin with one of the above files. The default location for mx.exe should be "C:\Program Files (x86)\MX Simulator". I'd keep a backup of the originals since these aren't well tested.

Curious to know what "erode_project_to_ground" is and also is "toggle decals" what it sounds like or is it something more?

Thank you! And yeah, I’m also curious to know more about erode project to ground.

I was just wondering if this is even possible or could be done in the future. Is there a way to preset a server to automatically change the level of erode in respect to the number of individuals in a server? So if there are 5 people in a server, the erode will automatically be switched to 1.5 but if there were 15, the erode would automatically be set to 1.0 or something.

"erode_project_to_ground" does what it says, it projects the force vector to the ground before converting it to a 2d vector by removing the Y coord. If you're on level ground, it does nothing since removing the Y coord is the same as projecting to the ground. But if you're on a slope, it removes the force that's going into the slope first, keeping only the lateral force relative to the slope. Hopefully it'll help make jumps wear a little better since it'll remove the force going into the face.

That can be done now with a shell script. Something like "while sleep 60; do echo -n >/dev/udp/127.0.0.1/19800 x/password/erode $(5 - $((grep 'Spectator|Player' <lineup.txt | wc -l)) / 10); done". That'd be 5 for 1-9 players, 4 for 10-19, 3 for 20-29 etc. No range checking so you'd want to add a check to keep it from going negative if there are 60 clients.

The next server is going to have way better scripting so it'll be much cleaner than that.

Do I need to change my command line for erode still? What will --erode 1 do now?

Think erode is still the same as previous versions.

Erode should be mostly the same but with less effect on slopes.

Any error messages before it crashes?

It freezes for like 5 seconds then says game has stopped responding then it crashes.
