yeah you are trying it from the actual EXE. What you need to do is create a shortcut and place it where ever you want (mine is in a folder on my desktop) and right click THAT (the shortcut that is) and choose properties. I'm on Vista now...so it might be different for you if you are on XP still. But...

Ok got it figured out. I had to put the original back in...started the game and saw that the gate had reverted to normal...exited the game...pasted the new coords in and saved and restarted the game...BAM! Now the question is...can I figure out how to place the finish gate and how to place trees (mo...

Well CRAP...I must be doing something wrong here cause the gate position hasn't changed?! I entered the 20 rider gate you posted above and deleted the original one and yet when I go into the game...the gate is still in the same place...AND I can't see the gates...the riders just sit there and no sta...

Ok it's not the editor it's the script that's at the link you gave me. Here is what I put into the box and what it spit out. Note that the coordinates it spit out fall outside of the range that I gave the utility. That's GOT to be the problem! Enter coordinates for left side of gate and right side e...

Here this will help illustrate it better. Follow this link (sorry the pic is too big to post in here) http://www.paulvalenti.com/PICS/DPG.png The GREEN line is where I put the start gates spanning the length of the whole line (the width of the funnel start at that point). The YELLOW line is where it...

Yes but that doesn't explain the coordinates for the object placement being off in the editor though...you DID catch that right?

yes the editor DOES show the coordinates...however (and this is detailed in the other topic I started regarding Editor - Game Suggestions or something like that) they are off by a considerable amount if you try using a 1.0 scale with a 513-sized MCM/MVA displacement map pasted in the center of a 102...

Ok something is off in the coordinates within the editor. When I use the link you posted (JLV) I get a LOT closer to where I want to be...but it's still off by quite a bit. The first problem that comes to mind is that there is nothing to help figure the height of the gate...I tried inputting that to...

JLV...after finally getting the track editor going I've had some time to mess around with it and I've put an already completed (but never released) track of mine into the game and rode around on it a bit. Anyway...I've got some suggestions that I'm sure won't make the top of your schedule for improv...

Thanks man...that was what I needed. I can run the editor (although it seems almost useless at the moment. I can't figure out how to place or choose objects if there are any. I did figure out the scaling with your help. I was able to put an unreleased MVA SX map of mine into the game and sort of rid...

Ok...first off I'm not majorly computer savvy and I'm 44 years old...it's been over 25 years since I was in school and math was NEVER my strong subject. So I'd appreciate a better (idiots guide style) explanation of how to figure (maybe on a calculator for us dummies) out the heightfield stuff. Firs...

Well...from my perspective the turning is problem number 1. However...there is also no foward/backward control and that is definitely problem number 2. From there I'd have to say that your problem with swapping might come up next. While I applaud the programmer for including this (as it has been mys...

no not exactly...if I put it on 90 on Rabbit Hill and just hit the gas it'll go straight...once I try to turn it just falls over and starts the 'fall 'O death' spiral (as I affectionately call it)! lol

yeah it doesn't get far if I mess with the stability at all really. If I set it at 100 then I can't make ANY of the turns...and if I try to brave it out I get pissed and lose interest because I can't get lined up and back on the track. I spend as much time lost trying to get back to the track as I d...

of course not! lol I've tried changing the settings and that only seems to work the very first time you set up the bike. Further changes don't seem to actually take effect although they are indicated in the menu (it shows you selected them). I've uninstalled and reinstalled the game a half-dozen tim...
