Files you need to make tracks

Unzip the blank track in '%LOCALAPPDATA%MX Simulator'.

The easy way to find this folder is by using the start menu itemcalled 'MX Simulator Personal Folder', which will open the folder inan explorer window.

Depending on your OS, this could be several different places.

• Vista: C:UsersAppDataLocalMX Simulator
• Windows XP: C:Documents and SettingsLocal SettingsApplication DataMX Simulator
• Windows 2000 C:Documents and SettingsApplication DataMX Simulator

Where is your username.

You want thedirectory structure to be something like this:

You can now edit 'terrain.png' and 'shading.ppm' with your favoriteimage editing software and it should show up in the game.

MX Simulator Track Structure

Here's a short description of what each file does:

blank/billboards

Text file that places the sprites (currently used for spectators and most of the trees).

blank/timing_gates

Text file that sets the starting gate positions and timing checkpoints.

blank/terrain.hf

Text file that defines the height field size and resolution. Theformat is '[dimension] [resolution] [lowest point] [highestpoint]'. For example, a height field that is 1025x1025, with 2 feetbetween each point, with a low point of 0 and a high point of 500,would be defined like this: '9 2.0 0.0 500.0'.

blank/terrain.png

Greyscale png file that defines the heights. It should be square,and the size should match the size in 'terrain.hf'. For example, ifthe dimension in 'terrain.hf' is 9, you would use1025x1025 (2⁹⁺¹+1=1025).

blank/shading.ppm

RGB pnm image for shading the track.

blank/statues

Text file that places the stationary models.

blank/flaggers

Text file that places the flaggers.

blank/lighting

Text file that defines the light color and position.

blank/map.png

RGBA png file. This is the map in the top right.

blank/texturelist

This defines the different types of ground.

blank/tilemap

This is a raw array of bytes that defines what types ofground go where. The size is 2 to the power of the dimension in'terrain.hf'. For example, if the dimension is 9, it would be512x512 (2⁹=512).

blank/desc

Text file that has the long name for the track.

The text files all have unix style line endings.

To scroll the map, right click and drag, or use the arrow keys.Most other actions are done with the left mouse button.

The other keys are:

Step by Step - Making a jump

Load up MX Simulator with the blank track.

Tcx Editor

Click on 'Gradient Placement', then drag the gradient endpoints towhere you want the jump.

Click on 'Gradient Edit', a 2d side view of the ground will appear(it should be totally flat). The black grid lines are at 10 footintervals and the gray ones are at 2.5 feet. Add points by clickingon the side view until you have a jump.

Now you have a gradient defined, but the track is still unchanged.To actually modify the track, click on 'Gradient Linear Paint', andthen paint your jump onto the track (you will probably want toincrease Focus to at least .5 first). When you're done, hit 'u' toupdate the back buffer. Tidymymusic 3 0 1 24.

You can take a look at it now in the game. It might look blocky atfirst from a distance, that will fix itself after a minute or so whenthe tesselation map updates.

Making a berm

Click on 'Gradient Placement', then move the center of the gradientto the center of the turn. Move the endpoint of the gradient outsideof where you want the berm.

Click on 'Gradient Edit'. Flatten the gradient by pressing 'f'.Add a point that lines up with the peak of the berm.

Add another point in the middle of the berm.

Finally, add a point at the bottom of the berm.

Convert the bottommost line segment to a curve.

Now you have the gradient set up to make the berm. Now switch to'Gradient Radial Add' mode, set 'Focus' to 0 and zoom back enough that thebrush covers the whole berm.

One click should be all it takes to paint in the berm.

Other Editing Modes

Raise

This mode raises the ground by 'strength' feet when you draw on it.

Lower

This mode lowers the ground by 'strength' feet when you draw on it.

Smooth

This mode blurs the ground by 'strength' feet when you draw on it.

Smudge

This mode blurs the ground by 'strength' feet in the direction youmove the mouse when you draw on it.

Snap

This mode snaps the ground to a lower level of detail depending on'strength'. You can use this mode to optimize a track's polygon count.

Gradient Linear Paint

This mode assigns the values from the gradient to the track as youdraw. They are assigned along the line the gradient was defined on.

Gradient Linear Add

This mode adds the values from the gradient to the track as youdraw. They are assigned along the line the gradient was defined on.

Gradient Radial Paint

This mode assigns the values from the gradient to the track as youdraw. They are assigned radially around the origin the gradient wasdefined on.

Gradient Radial Add

This mode adds the values from the gradient to the track as youdraw. They are assigned radially around the origin the gradient wasdefined on.

Gradient Placement

Places the gradient.

Gradient Edit

Edits the gradient.

Timing Gate

Places timing checkpoints.

Billboards

Places billboards.

Statues

Places statues.
