Having serious issues adding tracks and skins!!

Post by BryanCollier »

Hey all, I'm new to the game and new to the forums. I'm hoping somebody can help me out with adding tracks and skins. I know that I have to open my MX Simulator Personal Folder, but when I do, there isn't anywhere to put the tracks or skins. The only things in the flder are " config" " lastlog" and " regkey", none of which I can open. Could somebody please help me out?

Thanks for your time,

Bryan

You can drop them in that folder or the install folder (default is "C:\Program Files\MX Simulator"). I'd recommend putting tracks and skins in your install folder and only using the personal folder when you're creating a new track.

Thank you for your reply, jlv. I tried dropping my track into both my MX Simulator folder through C:/ and as well as trying it in the Personal Folder, and neither of which work. I downloaded the track " Freeworld" and it won't work in either folder. All I got when I downloaded the track was a file named " freeworld.7z" that I cannot open.

I really appreciate your help,

Bryan

I just tried adding a few different tracks and skins and it all worked. I guess the " freeworld.7z" map doesn't work.

Thank you once again for your time,

.7z is a compressed file like a ZIP or RAR file. It needs to be extracted.
