Monday Update - January 26, 2026
Happy Monday! This is the last week before we start working on MULTIPLAYER! Here's what we are hoping to get done this week.
Michael
Automated build servers are up and running. Doing a final test today to make sure everything is working properly.
Hodge updated the Unity project to version 6000.3.5f1. This seems to have fixed the game crash that some were experiencing, including me. I've been unable to get the game to crash since we updated to this new version.
Hodge is continuing to implement the remaining input glyphs (so the game shows the right buttons for your specific controller or keyboard) and finishing up a few new settings.
Toggle controller vibrations
Hide HUD
Reset to defaults
Fixing a few bugs
Decals projecting onto bike in demo map
Ability to fly through the start gate and start a race at speed
Start gates sometimes disappear
Whatever he doesn't finish this week will be put on hold so we can start working on multiplayer next week.
Maggie
Before starting work on the new branded rider gear, she is spending one day doing a quick lighting pass on the open-world map to make it look less depressing.
After that quick fix, she will get to work on the new branded rider gear! We'll announce who it is once we have some gear finished and approved by the brand.
After the branded gear is done, she'll go back to working on the Open World environment.
Cedric
Add racing to the new DH trail on the Open World map. My new favorite trail!
Working on the new flow trail.
Cedric will create rough "level one" sculpts of the root ball idea to ensure the gameplay and physics feel right, and then Maggie will take over to touch them up and paint them.
Joe
I'm going to start working on a new secret trail. I won't spoil anything until I know it's actually going to work.
The usual stuff like social media, livestream on Thursday, etc.
Hope you all have an amazing week! I'm looking forward to Friday cause I plan to go ride my favorite trails around here (Doña Ana). I'll try to make a video awithout fallinginto another cactus! Jake says hi.
