Step 2) Dont be slow
Step 3) ???
Don't be afraid to try new settings and lower your sensitivity in the roll angle and leveling. Really though, just keep playing.
In chat, type /writesetup 'setupname here' to save a setup, and /readsetup 'setupnamehere' to load those settings back in. With that go crazy!
Try the fork spring rate at 100 just to see how different it feels maxed out. See how the bike handles when you slow down the damping on the shock and the fork, and then just the shock. Compare and contrast. Do it with every slider so you see what they are for. Small changes can make huge differences. If you ever need help with a basic setup, PM me I'll send you a basic one that is easy but not pure arcade mode.
Also highly recommend playing with a controller.
The Shop
2. Obviously use a controller
3. Download other tracks the stock ones are ehh
4. Ride on the lowest stability setting you can (I.e. I ride mine at 12). Increasingly go lower as your skill goes up.
5. Make it a habit to sit in corners, but don’t use sticky sit/dab
6. Gotta play consistently just like real life
7. Look up everything u don’t understand.
8. If U wanna get tracks or skins go to the mx sim forums on line.
9. You’ll need winrar to unzip skins/tracks.
If u install a track and it doesn’t work hit me up.
Have fun
The SIM community seems pretty unfriendly and unwilling to help new people out.
It has great stability and makes the game a bit less hard to learn.
Most important is to keep trying, it's not a game you learn in a week like MX vs ATV or MXGP. It took me a couple of months to be able to do a lap without crashing.
Best tip is to start on a 250f and play the default tracks till its easy. Id stay away from the tracks that the pros race on. Its really difficult.
You have way more control over the bike that way, especially in the air.
when i did this it substantially changed my game.
grab someones settings to start out. adjust each setting individually to max and min until you see the reactions u get for each change and slowly learn how to play. been playing casually for 5-6 years...I play in 1st person mode (probably a rarity i'm guessing). Still the best mx game to date...has a HUGE learning curve IMO....and thats what made it great. I'm casual A rider in game.
i try to download each national/sx each week and race my ghost to get the track down. don't race much anymore but still enjoy learning each new track during seasons.
Barrington (who is here on vital) makes a lot of the tracks. His tracks nowadays are awesome IMO.
