Noting that you've just replied to a topic that's been dormant for nine and a half years, I think my original intent was to highlight tracks that used the available terrain to it's fullest, but with an emphasis on any kind of extensive off-course explorable and 'secret' areas (something that used to ...

Howdy. Welcome.

MTM2 drag tracks are made and used by fans of real life monster truck motorsports, they are used primarily in online competitions that are timed and judged by the players themselves. Since drags are not a legitimate MTM2 game mode the tracks themselves generally have no ...

Hello Firefox. I understand your description and I know the effect. As a supplement to Slayer's notes my best advice is to try the following settings.

In the Advanced Sound Options you'll see the following:
-Buffer Settings-
Number of Buffers:3
Buffer Size:1024

Cool.

You may. But at the risk of offending you: I strongly advise against it's use. It bundles together at least a dozen different freeware and commercial programs, many of which a person may not want or need, some of which are simply trial versions. This program is a ...

I dunno what your problem is but I have two things to suggest looking into, BHOs and the hosts file.

If you start up Spybot Search and Destroy in advanced mode and look in the tools section under BHOs you should see any Browser Helper Objects that may be installed.

There is also a section ...

If you right-click on Player.pro and view it's properties is the 'read only' box checked?

When I set my Player.pro to read only and try to to start mtm2 I get an error that says "Runtime error! Abnormal program termination". This is what I see on Win98, I suspect you have the XP version of the ...

Umm, if it's not too late please ignore what I said about monster.ini, at this point I can't guarantee a newly spawned one would be as good as an installed one. I probably shouldn't have mentioned it.

Since you mention pods... To expand on my earlier note, the game not starting is often due to ...

It's okay, but when you're looking for help it's generally best to give as much information as possible at the start, like stating what you've tried (you did mention installing), what you may know, when the game worked or when it stopped working - perhaps even providing clues about what might have ...

It's not an MTM2 error, it's a generic Windows error (possibly specific to XP) and there appears to be no single solution to avoiding it. It sounds like a fancy way of saying 'your program has crashed'.

Very cool VS. I've watched MOD.wmv a few times now. Using the sounds of actual monster trucks (and crowd sounds etc.) and synchronising them with the in-game footage was brilliant. Some scenes (like the Grave Digger sequence) were pretty cool and the overall editing was great, my only complaint is ...

The term 'map' has unfortunately turned into a generic one for all game levels but I believe old ben here means a literal picture or map of a completed track.

Firstly ben, you might check out the PDF packed inside rocketalces Castle Nugget track, which is one of the most impressive and should ...

There are some animated models scattered through the MTMG and Malibu350 inventories. There are also some custom models scattered through a few tracks out there but I don't have anything in particular to recommend.

First of all welcome aboard, I'm always glad to see a new track maker.

I've noticed that scale is often misjudged by new track makers. If I may I'd just like to post some rough, unfinished, unpublished notes from a Traxx terrain tutorial I've had on the back burner for some time now, I think it ...
