If you can't find the install folder, right click the shortcut icon and choose properties. The install path should be in the link target.

The editor works the same way on Linux. Add --editor to the command line parameters.

Hi, I have a problem with TorontoSX, online it says that error of current track modified ...
But I already download all objects and I re-downloaded that track to, but still same problem.
It's the only track where I have this problem with. Is there someone who can help me?

JLV are you going to add in the 2010 really basic models, like the stock ones into the game?

jlv posted it before, I'm just not sure where (don't feel like searching). I posted it at MXGHQ though:
Leveling - How much the bike wants to roll towards vertical.
Roll Damping - How quickly the bike leans over.
Roll Limit Angle - The angle when extra roll damping kicks in.
Roll Limit Factor - How much extra roll damping you get past roll limit angle.
Steering Damping - How quickly the bars turn.
Steering Strength - The force used to turn the bars.
Max Steering Force - The maximum forced applied to the bars.
Direct Steering - At 0, the steering control sets the target lean angle. At 1, the steering directly applies force to the handlebars.
Slow Damping Speed - Speed in feet per second below which you get extra roll damping.
Slow Damping Factor - Amount of extra roll damping you get below slow damping speed.

Uh so I formatted my comp and saved all mxs files and so, and except for all names in "tracks" being fucked up, some tracks come up all white..Any way to fix this?
And half of the tracks are named Peronalfolder/*trackname here*

I'm guessing you wound up restoring everything into "C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Local\MX Simulator\Peronalfolder" instead of just "C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Local\MX Simulator" or "C:\Program Files\MX Simulator".

Hm, that's weird, mine works without them in there, and Bill (hvpunk) had the same problem as you, and i think that's what fixed it for him.

Yours is: "C:\Program\MX Simulator\mx.exe" --erode 1.0
Should it not be: "C:\Program Files\MX Simulator\mx.exe" --erode 1.0

And if that's not the case, make sure that the name of the Mx Simulator game file (.exe) is really named "mx.exe". Because the snapshots for Mx Sim are named something like "2010-01-09-mx.exe"
