I agree with JvdL. There are a LOT of guys using the copy paste methode right now.

I can't wait for the stock bikes, they look absolutly sick. Your work looks sick as always aswell John, well done!

John, what do you think about the uvmapping? I guess it's standard done by Rainbown studios, but IMO it could've been way better. There is tons of free space that could've been used to get better details on the diffuse map.

Looks like the link to the PhysX software in the DE help file may be out of date.  I found this on the nvidia site : http://www.nvidia.com/object/physx-9.13.0725-driver.html

The one that's linked in DE only has support for XP and Vista (or so it says).
I truly love you. You guys are a bunch of genious's. This worked for me, thanks a lot everyone!

I couldn't copy the  \SOFTWARE\AGEIA Technologies\ PhysX_A64_Engines folder, so I just renamed it to  \SOFTWARE\AGEIA Technologies\ PhysX_A32_Engines, this didn't solve the problem, actually nothing changed.

Note that I have my DE installed on the D drive, this might be helpful for you. I'm installing it on the C drive now and I'll tell you if I have any luck.

That didn't change anything, I still get the same errors as on the D drive (yes I deleted the D drive version before installing DE on the C drive, I also tried to rename the folder in regedit again, but nothing has changed).

Thanks for all the help Laurie.

Thanks, that does help. DE was built expecting 32bit windows, and so isn't looking for the registry key \SOFTWARE\AGEIA Technologies\PhysX_A64_Engines, it only looks for the 32 bit key: \SOFTWARE\AGEIA Technologies\PhysX_A32_Engines.

Could you do the same image capture on the \SOFTWARE\AGEIA Technologies\ PhysX_A64_Engines, then i can see what needs tobe changed to recognise the 64bit versions of the software.

What's interesting is that i know there are several other people using 64bit windows and have DE working, Al167 for instance - so it would be interesting to see how they got it working.


Depending on what's in the registry key for the 64 bit version of PhysX it might be possible to copy the \SOFTWARE\AGEIA Technologies\ PhysX_A64_Engines key entries and rename it \SOFTWARE\AGEIA Technologies\ PhysX_A32_Engines

Also the path for the dlls in the 2nd line of 3) should be:
'DE_install_folder'\PhysX\v2.8.1\PhysXCore.dll and 'DE_install_folder'\PhysX\v2.8.1\PhysXCooking.dll
'\v2.8.1\PhysXCore.dll and 'DE_install_folder'\v2.8.1\PhysXCooking.dll

Alright, thanks for the help.
Here is what I have in my \SOFTWARE\AGEIA Technologies\ PhysX_A64_Engines folder. I'll try to copy the key entries and rename it.
Yes, I found those dlls after I replied, and saw that all dlls are correct.

Sorry to hear that DE is causing you so much grief.

Can you check these things and let us know what you find:

1) Which ver of windows are you using?
2) Are you running DE as administrator?
3) can you find the following files on your system?
- c:\windows\PhysXLoader.dll or c:\windows\system32\PhysXLoader.dll or 'DE_install_folder'\PhysXLoader.dll ?
- 'DE_install_folder'\v2.8.1\PhysXCore.dll and 'DE_install_folder'\v2.8.1\PhysXCooking.dll
-  'DE_install_folder'\RmxPhysics.dll

4) Enable the Logging option in DE and copy any error messages from the initialisation process that might show up.

5) If you know how to get to the registry editor, copy the following registry tree and post it here:
Local_Machine\SOFTWARE\AGEIA Technologies\

Hopefully that will give us some clues to get started..
1. I've window 7, 64 bits.

2. I've tried running it as administrator and normal. I get the same messages on both.

3. I found PhysXLoader.dll in both the C:/windows folder and in the installation folder. The PhysXCore.dll and PhysXCooking.dll are in the v2.8.1 folder too and  I have RmxPhysics.dll in my DE installation folder.

4. When I enable loggin I get this error and the window on the left changes from white to blue: http://gyazo.com/809166ee6e24e5ca1743e917e8539ff2

5. Here it is: http://gyazo.com/d2bb2384cfeda8852928b49ae977e91b

Hello guys,

I've had some problems in the Reflex Editor for a long time now, and never found out the problem. I started a new track for Mx-bikes and Mx Simulator and I thought it'd be cool for MvA Reflex too. The Reflex Editor still doesn't work and I'd like to know how to solve this problem.
Whenever I open the editor I get this error: http://gyazo.com/8e4cf75796a649ac705a3e813d0e1b5a, even though I've downloaded the Physx software which is listed in the help panel. When I click on 'No' I get another error: http://gyazo.com/c2372c965d65b84d9b75b75f62b302e7, then when I click OK I get this error: http://gyazo.com/bb526db613e3427396bf5d212e94117d, now when I click OK the editor opens, but I can't do anything. Jamie T helped me but we can still not get it working.

I hope anyone can help me out so I can provide some tracks for the community and have fun making them.
Thanks in advance.
