stop criticizing...

SORRY, but this is a --public forum-- Opinions of (MOST) kinds are welcome here, I'm sure...

I'd say (my opinion) that if the shortcut is in the EVO game, leave it....I'm not a shortcut fan myself, but they are a part of MTM2....

That won't work...you do what they want you to do, and they say "that's not what I meant. you don't understand me!"

If you ask them, you get "If I have to tell you, then it's not worth telling you" or something along those lines....

So..just be yourself....hang on...and enjoy the ride!!! (don't ...

Kc removed the OK buttons and made OKing the trucks a chore for the moderators of the site...

This was done because trucks were being OK'd by people other than the authors, before they were fully tested....it sounds like you were one of the reasons for the change....you should only have OK'd your ...

I like that yellow truck in the pic, (*wagging his tail)

This looks exactly like the track in EVO-1 (I don't have EVO2)...do both versions have the same tracks?

You may never get a satisfying Chrome wheel....

A chrome wheel is basically an odd-shaped mirror....when the wheel rotates, the reflection stays put...

On all the "chrome" wheels I 've seen in MTM2, the reflection goes "round 'n round"...as do shadows and such on wheels mapped from photos ...

Dead old link needs removal...

Hi Phineus,

I noticed that the TRUCK SITE links page at MTMG still has my old site listed, now defunct thanks to HOMESTEAD... the bad link is called "BIGDOGGe's TruckLot"

Could you delete it please?

After I see it's been removed, I'll add the link to my new trucksite there....Thanks ...

NFS cars use a TGA texture...maybe the import plug-ins are mixing EVO and NFS requirements during the import procedure...

There doesn't seem to be much in the way of a "standard" for these prefix's....I have MDL and .GEO models from other games that won't work with Zmod...

If it's the color pallette from the track that makes your truck look different, then start up a stock track and see if your truck looks normal again....if it still looks the wrong color, then it's not the track...
