Getting started

Open or create a project. Choose New project in the project hub to start terrain, or Open project to continue existing work. New projects open in the Terrain workspace.
Save an editable Studio project. Keep your .mxb project separate from generated export files. A game package is not a replacement for your editable project.
Build a small first pass. Shape the ground, add your track features, and inspect their placement before adding detail. Use Apply to keep a tool’s pending changes or Cancel to discard them.
Prepare a layout and its images. In Track Info, set your track and in-game layout names. Generate or import the track map and thumbnail when you are ready.
Try an export. Follow the export guide to install the official compiler tools and build a package. Inspect the result in MX Bikes.

Working in Studio

Terrain: shape the ground and track features. Check the result from more than one viewing angle before applying changes.
Surface: add materials and wear. Patterns are organized into Ruts, Equipment marks, Worked soil, and Your patterns. Use library folders to organize supplied patterns, imports, and presets.
Scenery and Environment: place objects, adjust the environment, and add sound. WAV and MP3 audio can be imported and previewed before export.
Race and Track Info: prepare each layout’s race data, names, and artwork. An in-game layout name is separate from the Track ID used for exported filenames.

Studio’s viewport is a working preview, not an exact rendering of MX Bikes. Confirm appearance, riding, lap timing, and resets in the game.

Testing & support

MXB Studio is in development. Before testing a new build, keep a backup of important projects and libraries. Newer saved data may not open in older builds.

If something goes wrong, share the version shown in the app, what you were doing, the steps to reproduce it, and the exact error or a screenshot. Remove personal paths or other private information before posting publicly.
