The ppms are the textures from the game. The tgas contain wireframe face layouts for the frame and bodywork only. The rest is the same as in http://mxsimulator.com/crflayout.png

jm_export.py is an export script for Blender. Probably not too useful without more info though.

If you can get your model into Blender you should be able to export it with jm_export.py. A bike consists of these models (using the crf250 as an example):

crf250_fork_lower.jm
crf250_fork_upper.jm
crf250_frame.jm
crf250_swingarm.jm
crf250_front_plate.jm
crf250_side_plates.jm

The front_plate and side_plates models are just to draw the numbers with.

The units are feet. The coordinate system is X axis right, Y axis up and Z axis back.

The steering head should be at [ 0, 1.427, -1.516 ]
The swingarm pivot should be at [ 0, -.391, 0.530 ]

i have need good hierarchy for create a model ,i need the bike model original
in.3ds i convert my model in .jm but i can't see in the game
pehaps i would edit in the . x format for texture localisation before convert to .3ds and to .jm :roll: i give my .jm name crf250.jm

Yes, the forks and swingarm have the same layout as the crf.

made a model for the frame of a cr125 :) just gotta work out how to skin it properly now :? im not sure il be able to :cry: the model is not really made for a game but it runs quite well, apart from underside of the rear mudguard is missing (need to think about normals as i make it next time :x ) and the bottom frame looks a bit skinny Image
