[MXRIDER]
MXRider.exe (~9mb) - Thanks to Madis for hosting.
MXRider_nofont.exe - For people who get errors when trying to run the other one, you have to manually install the games font.
[ V1.2 UPLOADED - VARIOUS ERRORS FIXED, FREE SCOOT ADDED.]
Alright I have been painfully bored recently so I decided to try and make a game. Those of you have been around a while will remember I made a game ages ago, which sucked. This is the first game i've made since that one. So don't expect too much.
The aim is just to score a certain amount of points so you can unlock the next level, the points scoring system is similar to the one in THPS so the more tricks you do in one combo the more points you get (doing a fakie doesn't count as part of a combo).
Installation:
Run the downloaded exe file and extract the game data to a folder, once you've done that find the folder and click 'Game.exe'.
If you are installing the mxrider_nofont.exe version you will also need to install the 'mxrider2.ttf' font, by moving it from the from the 'fonts' folder into C:\Windows\Fonts (which can be found in Control Panel when you click 'fonts'), you may have to restart the computer before the game will work. If it still doesn't work make sure you can see and use the mxrider font and are using the mxrider_nofont version.
Controls:
Tricks ::
A :: Tailwhip
S :: Lookback
D :: Barspin
Z :: Indy
Q :: Backwards scooterflip
W :: Forwards scooterflip
Up / Down :: Frontflip / Backflip
Left / Right :: Frontside / Backside spins
Manuals ::
Rotate slightly in the jump to get into either a manual or nose manual. Once in a manual use the left and right keys to balance, be careful when you are jumping out of the manual, if you are still holding left or right you will spin.
Grinds ::
Jump onto the rail or box holding one of the direction keys and you will start to grind. Use the left and right keys to balance.
Fakie ::
When you are rolling back in fakie you do not need to press any buttons, but if you want to move up or down you can do by pressing the up or down buttons.
If you want to get out of fakie you can do it by pressing either left or right, causing you to revert round or brake to a stop depending on which way you are facing.
Transfers ::
On some ramps you can perform transfers, hold up as you ride up the transition and you will transfer, you don't need to do it on spines or jump boxes but when you have 2 quarter pipes with a bigger deck you will need too.
Other controls:
Alt + enter :: Toggle full screen
F1 :: Game preferences
Free scoot:
To get into free scoot mode choose a level to ride as normal then once its loaded hit the Esc key and choose 'Free Scoot' the timer will disappear and you'll be able to ride the level for as long as you want. To quit the level just use Esc again and choose 'Quit'. You have to restart the level to get the timer to appear again.
There is no bunnyhop or jump button as it caused a lot of errors, so instead you just ride up to a ramp or drop and it will automatically jump for you.
If you are trying to do a spin with a trick then you do not want to hold the trick button down or else he'll keep spinning 90 degree and doing the trick again, if you just tap the trick button then he'll do the trick facing one way and continue spinning afterwards.
The controls are pretty hard to get used to, especially getting used to doing flips and spins at the same time but you shouldn't find it too hard to land tricks.
If you find any errors in the game then just let me know, a good tip which will stop the game from crashing is not to revert out of fakie just before you go up a ramp.
Enjoy.
