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.

He got my permission to upload a game instead of a video, so there it is, haha.

I know this should be in Games sections but not very many people go there and besides it's a scooter game and let it be on general discussion.

I enjoyed spines.

Whenever I go up to a box to manual, an error message comes up saying, "Unable to find file Audio/SE/091-Attack03" Anyone else get this, and how do you fix it?

Oh, I thought I fixed that, thats just because it can't find the sound effect for when you fall over in a manual. I'll fix that in a bit but you will have to download it again. Or you could just not fall over when you do manuals, lol.

Martin said if errors still come up after moving the fonts try just restarting the computer, it worked with ours.

The highest score i got on this game so far is 28,950 on Level 2
Just do loads of Backflip triple scooterflips
 
This game is so awesome, mad props for the work you put into this. Few questions though.

The program you used to make this, is it from the RM2K series? The chipsets are obviously custom but the programming looks really RM2Kish. (that's not a bad thing) The error you get when you crash manuals, it looks like the game is just missing a sound effect file, check over your sound effect files for that and you might find the problem.

I really like this game although the controls are a pain in the ass and its really easy to crash on.

I'll keep updated on this thread, and I'll throw some screeny's in shortly.

Yeah theres still some errors on this game i found like getting stuck on halfpipes and when you do reverts near ramps. The game was made on RPGXP. The controls are really hard to get used to but RMxp only lets you use a certain amount of set keys.

Where do you put the font thing in? Because there's only one thing in my font folder and I don't know how to find c:\Windows\Fonts\ because I'm a n00b.
