Oh wow.... Guys, try Sorketorp enduro with this snapshot!

I liked the update before, there were so many times that I smiled because it felt like I actually had a sense of balance and a center of gravity. Awesome update JLV, I love it.

Mh what setting do you use ? For me it feels wierd to have the dab speed all the way up but at 35 it feels kinda normal. Just like yzmxer608 said, I dont feel much of a difference.

Windows download is down for me. MXSimulator.com works fine though.

It works for me atm. You might have to reload the page ?

PC fixed... Apparently my setup is incredibly dab dependent. First lap tipped over every corner lol.

What's the advanced stab setting that makes the bike stand up on its own?

Does he stick his leg further ahead of himself now? Or is it just more noticeable because its there for longer?

Still would like to see two leg poses. One foot out straight and one foot sliding across the ground. Adjustable by speed. But I suppose that's impossible because he can apply any dab force with his foot in the air tho. This rider is useless. He never does what I want him to an makes me crash all the time. Lol.

Pretty sure leveling is what makes him stand up, how fast he gets back to being level, you let go of the stick with high leveling he goes up himself

Not really a fan of it. It feels like you don't have as much control with your bike and it seems you can't really push with the bike.

It feels like I tip over more now in the corners.

He's lying. He said he would have liked it had there been cake involved.

Seriously one of the better snapshots to date. We've been discussing the problems with the way dab used to work and this seals the deal. Before, your riders wouldn't dab until you were accelerating. In sharp corners, the downware force of the dab combined with getting on the throttle would cause your front end to push, leading to a washout. Happened to me all the time. Now, it's much less frequent.

Same exact for me

So if it starts applying the dab force half way to locking, the force is still applied from 50%-100% lock?

Yes, when it's halfway to the lock angle it starts applying the force and it's at full strength when it reaches the lock angle.

What full lock speed, restricted lock speed and angle are you guys using? I'm running 5, 50, 5 and it seems way better to me. A wider angle might not work as well. I could do something like use min(lock_angle, 5) if that turns out to be the problem. I could make it adjustable too, although the advanced stability settings are getting kind of long.

Bring back the Shift+8 menu!

Well this is good for a 250 with max dab speed to 60 cause you can make jumps like the 450

Changes:

• Now checks for .scram files when listing skins.
• Fixed out of sync gate drop when spectating online.
• Moved initial bike positions to behind gate instead of the north end of the map.
• Dab force is now only applied when the steering position warrants it.
• Max dab speed increased to 60.

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