What sort of funny updates? Like a guy with long arms?

Yes DJ! NO. For example somthing that make the rider come off the bike when crashing. That is so real as it is now =). It was a simulator right? Make it happen, how hard can it be?

Nah, that's something anyone can do blindfolded and one hand tied behind their back.

Little bug, not sure which snapshot this came into action but I only recently noticed it. The "Stop Wheelies" function doesn't work quite how it should. It kind of runs in a cycle (difficult to explain but I'll give it a go.) If you select "Yes" then it may work fine, but you cycle through "Front Only" ,"No" and back to "Yes" then the bike endoes really easily. Cycle through again and it works normally. It's like an extra option "Rear Only" but it appears under the title "Yes". Nothing major, just picking it up and didn't really want t make a new topic for it.

Thanks for the report. It's not updating it correctly when you set it in the menu, but it should be good the next time you start the game.

[DJ99X]

Thats always happened to me

What exaclty does the new snapshots do. Does it make the overall game look better? sorry new to the game trying to learn the lingo

[jlv]

They are essentially alpha tests of the next major version. It's an exe compiled from a "snapshot" of my current code as of that day.

[Red619]

Thanks alot for the info. Im not going to worry about it.

[Shadder]

Is it possible to get an Teaser of what to come next Jlv?

[shane78]

yea jlv a teaser just tell us what ur planing on puting in plleeeeeezzzz jus got my computer runin havent been on in forever alot has changed

[DJ99X]

I'd say the flipped normals should be a high priority. Gio is releasing his wheel textures with a normal map, and Wake's wheels use symmetrical unwrapping, so they won't look completely right until that problem is fixed

[DJ99X]

I think this would be the most appropriate place to ask this

How come ground mipmaps don't adjust themselves like regular textures? Like, you zoom in, and the object textures remain sharp, but the ground does not adjust itself and blurs.
