Replace mx.exe or mxbin with one of the above files. I'd keep a backup of the originals since these aren't well tested.

You will also need to put this file in your install folder:

Here's how the skin naming works. The new rider model is named "rider_body.jm" its texture is named "rider_body.png". If you use a skin name like "rider_body-green.png" it will still go with "rider_body.jm". But if you use a name like "rider_body-newmodelname-green.png", instead of loading "rider_body.jm" the game will load "rider_body-newmodelname.jm". This applies to the helmet (rider_head.png) and the bikes and wheels too.

Do they have to remake the old riding gear with this? I noticed the gear my rider had is no longer there.

[DJ99X]

Yeah, old gear will definately need to be remade. And new helmet skins will need to be made

This is gonna be awesome. The fact we can have different helmets is gonna be sweet

eww the rider looks so fat o.O idk it feels really awkward i liked how the ridertest felt

[Wilson]

i agree, it feels akward, but i loved the rider test.

[DannyBoy]

yeah i dont like it at all (no offense to you JLV) it just feel's so unrealistic now

[Wilson]

Yes, now i can lean the rider over now letting his knee almost touch the ground and the rider will be ok, i ride on 0 btw.

[DannyBoy]
