hold control and hit "print screen" , after you have done this exit out of the game, open paint-click edit, then paste and your screen shot will appear. Save in .png format, the defult .jpg will look haggard.

I think the easiest way is to use Fraps, you can get it free.
You just set a key to take screenshots, like F1, and then chose where to save the screenshots, and when you're playing, just Push F1 or whatever key it is and it'll take a screenshot and save it to the chosen folder :P

Yes, you can use the print screen thing but I really think its easier to use fraps, and I did read the other posts..

The folder should already exist and its not in your install folder its in your personal folder

c
documents and settings
your user name
local settings
program files
mx simulator
demos

or some such is the path name.[/quote]

Thanks for the quick reply :)

Upon Installing the game it did not create a personal or demo folder and i am a little confused, i have reinstalled the game and still no folders are appearing, any ideas anyone?..hope im not missing anything obvious here. I have also searched all of the drives on my computer for demos just to be sure they were not being put elsewhere.

Thanks in advance

Do you know how to use the editor? As in how you have to add --editor to the target box? The target box is in properties of the game's shortcut, and under the shortcut tab. Add --open-home to the target box with no other commands in there, like this

"C:\Program Files\MX Simulator\mx.exe" --open-home

Your personal folder should open. Make a shortcut for this folder

I know this is a stupid question but i'm just curious JLV are you ever going to bring this game out onto the 360 because if you did i would wait out the front of the shop for a week ahahaah

why would you want it on 360? it would look and ride exactly the same, except you wouldnt have the user generated content,
plus you can use the 360 controller to play it on your computer anyways
