Did you add height and slope in gradient edit or did I seriously never see that before?

How could you have missed that? I'd be lost without those!

Any chance of getting the slope also in degrees? My mind has a hard time thinking in radians.

Slope is height / length. It isn't an angle.

oh ok. So, tan"alpha"=height/length? Degrees would be nice.
ps.Sorry for offtopic.

Well remember you had just told me about the granularity. Before I knew that was there, I had no reason (so I thought) to look over there for anything when I was in gradient edit. Haha. I just built a 1:1 sx track for the heck of it since I found all this out. Me likey.

Can't find game data. It's been a while..

Go to your install folder. (not personal folder) drop this snapshot in. Rename it mx.exe-2013-08-15-1195. Create shortcut. Take .exe out of the previous snapshot.

Most slopes IRL are given in % or H:V ratio. ie 25% = 4:1

Never seen anyone give grades in degrees personally

hey.
why cant i play multiplayer with the new snapshot?

In land surveying we just use the ratio and display it as a ratio not a percentage, we call it rise/run (Just thought I would say this for no reason)

[SOAB_465]

Haha that's my back ground too. but in Canada we write it as a ratio (run : rise) for earthwork. And % grade for roads, utilities etc.

Can't find game data.. tried to rename stuff. not working. help? i took the previous snapshot out.. aswell as the original mx.exe 1.8

Could someone explain the gearing thing please? Like, what the benefits are?

[YzJarne_196]

I mainly used it to keep things neat.

The SAF Extractor got around so quick I just stopped sending people PNG's if they needed them. They would come to me saying, "Hey I ripped your bike but I needed those PNG's from your 180 bike" or something like that. Never really bothers me though.

Honestly most people could "rip" before, saf extractor just makes it take 500000x less effort.

You don't need to be a rocket scientist to understand how a .saf is coded... It's a matter of knowing what line of numbers and symbols to save as a .png in notepad lol.

Before this snapshot, I honestly thought I would prefer having auto-rotation turned off. One advantage is when you used to use the backup button to get up quicker. Now the rider doesn't fall down and continue to auto-rotate if you are not perfectly aligned with the timing gate. However, it seems to be quicker (in most cases) to leave auto rotate on and let it spin around. I foresee a lot of people getting up from a crash and cutting across the track because they are facing sideways or backward. I see it often right now in 03. Hell, i even find myself doing it in some situations. I guess we will see how it pans out.
