looks sick. the whips look nice, like josh grant style whips.

[sharkmx62]

Im not sure what to think. That game looks like it has HUGE potential, but as it as right now, looks pretty crappy. The textures are just terrible and the rider sits all the time. Im really not sure how I feel on this. Any info on it?

****Edit, just saw the link, downloading now.

[Motoboss]

It has a sit dab button to press when you want to sit
The Game has come along way in the past 6 months
The rider models now are very detailed and has 09 Yam, Hon,Kaw and Suk
The game Dev jlv has biult the game from scratch
On his forum you can tell him what he needs to improve on and what you would like to see in the game under Game Suggestions....he actually listens and he is on there every day
MX Simulator.com
The game is updated on average evry month and a half
I really think this game is going to overcome any MX game out there The potential is endless

[eighttwelve]

has great potential. Can't wait to see this when they start really pushing the graphics.

this kid is gonna get rich if some company gets smart and buys the rights to this thing. THQ or something.

Game engine looks sick!

Question... is it only first person view?

no, go to FAQ

[tobz173]

The only problem with the game is one of the same problems mva had, the community is full of little prick know it all's and control freaks. And the fact that the games fairly bland models and textures already push high spec computers to the limits. But the physics are great, lierop is great fun, but i love the supercross tracks.

[Motoboss]

You just made me bust out laughing
Ron Ron has some of worlds best know it alls
But what site isnt full of them?

[459Productions]

I must have a ****ty demo because this thing doesnt turn worth a ****. Good idea, looks like the physics are down pat now if the graphics could be pushed it would be golden.

If im not mistaken, you can download the demo, but you have to buy the actual game which is much improved over hte demo. I think thats how it works, right motoboss?

Ya thats right

The Demo has just been updated with the newer textures and I think some more features
But the full version is so much better with the new bike models and wheels and all the User Made tracks I am pretty much making the switch from MVA to MXS now
jlv is working on rider lean for the one of the next updates for the full version he will probbly add it to the demo also

[tobz173]

You just made me bust out laughing


you would.

[Motoboss]

you would.Exactly the reply I was expecting

[Motocross83]

Thankyou for posting this and thus bringing it to everyone's attention.

I loved the demo and have just purchased the full game (disc form). When I finally get to play it, i'll let you guys know what I think. An MX game devoted to realism... About time!

Can't wait :smiley:.

[Motoboss]

After you get the full version make sure you go here and get all the new models and skins
MX Simulator • View topic - Skins, Demos and Other Mods Repository (http://mxsimulator.com/benchracing3/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=587)

Let me know if you need any help
Oh ya and download the newest snapshot and update that is if its not already on the full version you get.

[Motocross83]

Cheers man!

[bradracing]

It would be sweet with a controller...I might buy it if we can use a controller?

[Motoboss]

Yes you can use a controller\
Thats all I use

[Patrick]

Looks cool in those videos, but I suck so hard at it even with a controller. It's easier to ride a real bike.

I know exactly what you mean. I honestly thought that there was something wrong with my copy when I first played this without the arcade physics. It was so frustrating and what amazed me was that very few people seemed to be suffering with it in the way that I was. People talked about riding around with 60 stability! I couldn't even begin to imgine how people were doing that, I could barely ride around at 80. I totally agree that this is harder than doing the real thing. I changed various settings a ton of times but no luck. I even stuck the arcade physics back on but the problem with that, is you loose so much feel and it just becomes wooden and easy.

However I didn't want to give up with it because underneath I could see that it would an awesome game and that people were having a blast with it. So I persisted and eventually got better and better. I could now ride around OK-ish at 85 stability.

Whats really improved things for me though is the new beta rider physics he has up there. It's now completely playable and i'm loving it. I can whip over the jumps, slide round the corners etc. It's still challenging but nothing like before. I'm having so much fun with it!

If your struggling in the way I was, I would highly recommend installing this test physics pack. It's only a beta version and thus the riders don't have torsos but it does (for me) make the game awesome.

Heres a Video with the new beta physics

[beefio247]

holy crap this game is so realistic!!!!! well the physics and stuff like that!! :lol:

okay i have a question!! how do i set enable controller use in gameplay. because i cannot for the life of me use the keyboard on this game. I want to use my xbox 360 controller. i already have the connector and stuff for it. i just want to know how i use it in the game.

thanks :-D

[beefio247]

never mind i figured it out!!! :smiley:

okay but now how the hell are you suppose to have control on these bikes??? :-/

and whenever i hit the rear brakes i like slide out. and i cant even land jumps!!

[Motoboss]

If you have the full version you can adjust every little detail of the bike in the menu
Suspension
Gearing
Braking
Acceleration
Rider reaction
Stability
Balance
:thumbsup:

[beefio247]

Yeah all i have is the demo.

So how much is the full version? Cause this game looks worth getting. Even though it doesn't have great graphics.


they should really put these physics into stuff like Mx vs Atv: Untamed. That game has amazing graphics, but the physics are just horrible. They went for ahuge jump for trying to make it realistic, but they came up really really short. :lol:

[Motoboss]

I think I paid like $45 .00 for it
If you like the demo you will crap your pants over the full version... lol
The game has the potential of next gen consoles just give jlv time.

[beefio247]

well i want to get better at this game. but the demo is so hard to control. its ridiculous!! i cant make a turn or anything!! :confused: :-/ any pointers? would be greatly appreciated! :smiley:

Well its a little easier to play using a controller than a keybourd IMO
If you have a controller set it up like you do your dirtbike make your main controls that you use all the time the easiest buttons to push then set the other things where you can push them without that much difficullty ...That helped me alot
Also set your stability really low and play on that for a couple hours then raise it and youll find that you will do better

[beefio247]

like keep it at 100?? or put really really low?? because im riding with one hundred stability right now and i cant make turns. and im braking before them and everything. its really weird!!! :-/:confused: ahhh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

lol

[LEE3383]

lol

I had the same problem. Thats why I played it for 5 minutes then uninstalled it.

[Toast]

From my 10 minutes of experience playing it at work (BAHAHA), you can turn better by turning the stability down. The lower the stability, the better the rider responds, but it gets pretty insane when you get below 40ish.

[beefio247]

Yeah but when i turned down the stability, it was im possible for me to keep straight and keep the bike upright.

[mxmhero]

Yeah but when i turned down the stability, it was im possible for me to keep straight and keep the bike upright.


thats the same problem i'm having, turn a little with stabilty down and it just falls over can't even go stright. and i have the full version.

[eighttwelve]

this game is hard as ****.

[Mr.Behling]

Can I somehow use my 360 controller to play this?

Downloaded the demo and tried playing on my laptop and its impossible unless I use arcade physics, but playing it on arcade is pointless, best part of the game seems to be the physics. From the videos I've seen either the final version is completely different and/or a controller makes all the difference.

[Mumhra]

I have been playing this game for several months now. I suck at it but i'm having a blast. It's by far the best mx game out there. I maybe can give some pointers...

- Stability at 100 is way to high. If you are a beginning rider start with 85. Then gradually go down. After a week go to 80, then to 75, then to 70. Going to 40 or something and then, after a while go back up might also help although i must admit that doing that can get frustrating. (I usually play at stability level 40 to 50, depending on the track)

- If you play this game (especially with keyboard) always use antilock brakes (back and front brakes). The reason for this is simple. Mx sim is a simulator, it tries to copy real life. In real life you always brake gradually. With a keyboard you can't brake gradually. You brake fully or you don't brake at all. So you have 2 options. You buy a controller with analog buttons for the brakes (which means you'll need 3 analog buttons, 1 for throttle and 2 for the brakes and i'm not sure a controller with 3 analog buttons is on the market) Having antilock brakes is not really lifelike but its better then locking up all the time

- Someone allready has said that the rider responds a lot better with the stability level lower. But that guy also said that it's almost impossible to control the rider on lower speeds with the stability decreased. Now there is a hidden menu in this game (i hope it is in the demo as well but i'm not sure). Go to the "bike setup" menu and put your mousepointer on "stability" Then on your keyboard press "*". Now you come in the hidden menu. Increase the level on the last slider (slow damping factor). Default that is set at 1.25 . Increase that to somewhere in between 2.5 and 3. Then hit "esc" twice and you are back in the race screen. Now you will have low stability when riding fast (so your bike responds good) but when you go slower the stability level will go up (like for instance in a hairpin your bike will be more stable and more controllable). From the moment you pick up speed again the stability will automatically go down. One thing you must remember about this thing is that you can not save that setting. Every time you close the game it goes back to the default setting (1.25). So every time you start the game you have to go back to that submenu to increase it.

- the most important tip : practise, practise and practise. And when your done practise some more. That is how you get fast irl and how you get fast in mxsim. I hear people saying that after 10 minutes they uninstalled the game because they sucked. Well.. imagine you have never riden a dirtbike before and then someone gives you one and you have to go on the track immediately. How will you do after 10 minutes ? My younger brother said after he played this game for 10 minutes "I can't turn like Bubba in this game". Well.. Bubba could not turn like Bubba does now after only 10 minutes on a bike.



I hope these tips help you guys out a little. Have fun :)

[mxmhero]

Also turn the direct steering down to 0.63 in that hidden menu helps alot also. If you get the newest snapshots off the website(have to have full version to use them) it saves the settings in the hidden menu now.

[Mumhra]

Thnx for the tip mxmhero. I did not yet install that latest snapshot because i thought there were no improvements i could use but turns out there are :)

Anyway... i wanted you guys to see this video someone at mxsim made. When you have tried this game you will agree with me that this is simply ubelievable : YouTube - mx simulator - mittocs (Press 'watch in high quality' bottom right)

[mxmhero]

Man wish i could get my bike to handle like that, plus that guy must play everyday. i know some of the guys know how to change the frontend traction.

[Mumhra]

One of the biggest updates ever has come out today. Online multiplayer :thumbsup:

From of today this game beats all other mx games by miles. It still has some flaws but nothing is perfect. But this game is the closest to perfection.

[O'Brien#12]

Sweet as a nut mate!!!
I am d/l the new snapshot ASAP!!! :)

[the_gastropod]

It's too bad he doesn't have a mac version. Game looks really cool.

[O'Brien#12]

It is have you seen the vids on youtube?
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SyJlFstp4nM&feature=related

[O'Brien#12]

Who here actually plays (should that be rides?) Mx sim??

[Mumhra]

I do. When i have the time that is lol. Because of my lack op practise i'm not even close to the guys you see in those video's but i'm having a blast :)

[O'Brien#12]

i am ok at it...i reckon about B class, i kept up with and nearly beat Cr85 and he is A so maybe i am ok?
Next time you are on i will give you a race :D !!! My username is Ben O'Brien give me a shout.
Same goes to anyone who plays. If you see my name give me a shout and i'll have a race with you.

[O'Brien#12]

Anyone here still play it? I just got a PB on Redbud, 2:11..... my first day on manual box as well.

[toonys66]

check howthe game has evolve since a little while, it s just crazy now, and always improving!!! the model and tracks are great!! and the online is great!!

[eighttwelve]

this game is really cool to watch. impossible to play.

[toonys66]

it s sure it s so hard to play, i got irritated sometime! but when you get it, it feel so real!!! and being so hard make it good also, cause it s hard to get bored and the game evolve all the time!!!

[starchildeyes]

I love sims and MXS seems to be incredible but i'm just getting started. Can anyone recommend some good settings for just getting acclimated to the controls? Also, PLEASE how do you get the demo to third person camera? Thanks.

[toonys66]

hello, to play third person you must press the tab button, and after for the settings, a lot of people use stock settings, me i did not know at the beginning so i use stock and it goes all right but on the website www.mxsimulator.com (http://www.mxsimulator.com) i found the setting of jlv and mittocs (the best rider) so i put the one of mittocs and it goes well! i try to look for it to give it to you but i do not found the page!
but with stock it s ok! just putting down little by little after practising the stability! start at around 80 and go until like 20 or less if you like, but people say 20 is the best! 0 is for freestyle and throwing huge whips!
have fun

Eeeer heres a helmet model im making for MXSim...

[valvesR4pussies]

I can't believe you f.uckers talked me into buying this game. I just finally noticed this thread a week or so ago and though cool, sounds badass. I downloaded the demo and thought "damn, this sucks, but the real thing must be way more badass." So I go ahead and download the real thing for the 45 bucks, and it's the same exact thing as the demo, but with more tracks. I guess you got to be a computer genius and follow their forum religously to get the bikes to look good and get some new tracks. I don't have the skill to do all that BS. And these "super realistic physics" is a bunch of bull. It's way too sensitive and weird to have any fun with. If riding was anything like this game I would be dead. It literally pissed me off.

In the games defense a bunch of people seem to be all about it, so I don't know what their deal is.

[Aus_Rider_22]

I got really excited about it to. When I finally started playing the demo it was ****. I don't doubt it could be good with hours of practice and fine tuning, but it's not worth $45 for the average MX enthusiast. I am sticking to Reflex online.

[Jonathan]

You have to find a good setup and actually LEARN how to play the game.

[eighttwelve]

I played the demo for a couple days and could barely stay up on the bike :lol:

[O'Brien#12]

i've had it awhile...demo sucked real game is good. I am farely good now...i can stay up for entire races, save stuff i didn't think was saveable etc. It did take practice and as for the graphics you just need the newest update/models and they are on the front page of the forum. I like it i just wish my laptop was quick enough to run it at full graphical settings! :D

[swedishfishmx]

Not even going to try with the laptop I got. It's good but after using illustrator for so long I have way too much memory used up.
