Installation Instructions Sorry, there's no setup program yet, but its easy enough....

Create a new folder (eg C:\Program Files\Traxx). If you are upgrading, just use the existing folder.

Create a shortcut to Traxx.exe in your start menu or desktop.

Some tracks made with Traxx (also posted at other track download sites)

Hot off the presses, brand spanking new MTM2 Track Cumbria 2.4 Mb
This contains 5 - yes, five - tracks in one POD. All are based in the same "world" - one (Rally+) covers almost all the terrain (10 min lap if you're good) and three others run on shorter segments of the main track.
The fifth is a CNR version - theres lots of intersecting roadways and such, so it should be fun!

Even yet more new MTM2 Track Vulture Peak 1.3 Mb
Fast racing lines can be found around this scenic road. Plenty of places to pass, with some alternate routes on dirt track.
Includes some cool circling vultures, and theres also a secret area where an uncomfortable Dr. Scrote is hiding out... :)

Yet newer still MTM2 Track Valley Of The Kings 2.3 Mb
Theres quite a few textures in this one (hence the large file size). This is an Egyptian theme track, with tombs and pyramids etc.
Great for racing as well as nice to look at, there are some tricky adverse cambers and jumps. Hidden secret tomb!

Even newer MTM2 Track Dr. Scrote's Volcano 1.0 Mb
Made entirely using Traxx 1.2 plus a bunch of TXBIN models. This is quite a long track (Rally race) and requires
a wide variety of skills... :)

New MTM2 Track Chase The Dragon 914 Kb
Made entirely using Traxx 1.2 (beta), from scratch. This is a great track for serious racers -
as well as containing some cool new sounds and animated graphics!

MTM2 Track The Lake 1.2 Mb
Made entirely using Traxx 1.1, from scratch. This track took 2-3 days to make, and is actually a pretty cool track - not just a "demo" for Traxx!
