If you have access to the email you bought the game with, I would just uninstall the game and re-download the full installer from your email. Make sure to save your personal folder and its contents though.

Not sure what the typical factory preload is, but I'm sure you already know that everyone just adjusts it to sag about 4 inches with the rider on the bike.

Sorry for the repeated asking, i'm trying to get my head round the numbers involved. I've got the uncompressed length of the shock spring but i can't find the compressed length any where.... I've also got the compressed length from the top eye of the shock to the preload collar....again this isn't helpful when trying to calculate the difference... :D

I'm not wanting set ups just the right rear preload so i can develop my own, My brain is melting! :D What's people using for the KX450f for rear preload that gives around the 4" (100mm) mark?

You are overthinking it. Just adjust it until it rides good and don't worry about the number.

For the snapshot posts, I get the change list from SVN (the version control software I use) and list everything that's makes a difference to end users. That means I list pretty much everything except changes that just make the code look neater or remove compiler warnings or whatever.

I have posted multiple exe's before without saying what the difference is between them when I've been testing stuff and want objective answers. But that's always a situation where I'm asking "which is better, a or b?" and don't want to bias the results.

Did you put the snapshot exe in the same folder as the zzz*.saf files?

If you mean the client version number, there's an option on the server to require a minimum client version number for a player to be allowed to connect.

Fixed bug where reversing removed some dab limits.
Can you put this back to the old way. Seems a lot better because when you barely clip a rider you can stay up from old dab limits.

Can you put this back to the old way so that people like me can continue to exploit the bug and get passed actually falling over? NOT FAIR ANYMORE
