Making tracks.


Photoshop, or really any advanced image editing program is way better than the MXS editor, that is, if you know how to use it correctly.

You need to go to your personal folder, and copy the empty track, and rename it to what you want. Make sure you place it in the MXS folder, not inside the empty folder.


Then, you go to the game and load whatever folder you made. From there, if you press tab a couple times, you will go to the editor, and you can start making tracks.

Used it for Obel Raceway, and so far every response I've got from it is "Gotta step up my game."

I'd say yes, but you might not have as much luck. It's not exactly an easy program to use, by any means.

Can you explain better?


You need to go to gradient placement, and then edit the grid for what terrain you want. After that you need to go to gradient add, and then paint where you want it.
