ModNation Racers General Discussion

[C_Wilson_24]

I've noticed in the last few weeks that my Create XP points have been really low.  Well, I checked after 31 races this week and I only got 100 Create XP points total.  I always race with my own mod and kart, so I believe this number should be a lot higher.  I'm not sure exactly how many points you get for each race, but I'm sure it should be more than 3.  I wonder if anyone else has been seeing this problem?

The mod and kart need to be published to accrue xp. I can't find them on your page.

Edit:  Also, it's 25 points per published creation in the race.  So if you do a time trial on published track with a mod you publish and a kart you haven't that is 50 xp.  25 for the track and 25 for the  mod.  In a race you can get even more since others can use your mod and kart, which is how some people boosted.

Thanks Cougar.  I've been experimenting with different kart bodies and suspensions, but completely forgot about publishing them to get XP for them!  Thanks again.

This is hijacking this thread, hope you don't mind.

Do you have any good findings from your experiments?

No problem, my XP1 kart is what I use when I'm in a competitive mood. Slightly raised, no body. I can handle most user tracks without snagging like I would in a lowrider on an awkward road or a longer, wider kart against makeshift walls. It seems to have more sway to it, but I like it enough

I was getting snagged with every kart body I was trying, then poncedailyown said he used the Contender body, mid drop suspension.  He said he never has gotten snagged with it.  So I started using it about a week ago.  Very good success so far.  I believe I only got snagged once, on the second mega jump on Skyscraper Hop.  That could have been just a one time glitch, though, since I don't remember that jump ever snagging me before.  I always had the worst problem with the second jump on Terraced Drop, and I don't think I've raced it much with this kart body.  So the experiment continues...

I keep creating and deleting my own creation to find the good mood on racing. (Everyday, AGH)

Or simple download other nice creations.

AGH.

Oooo, a body that can use a drop suspension and not get snagged?  Very interesting indeed.  Whenever I get tired of too many snags I resort to my lifted Baha truck (the Progressive truck body) but I'd really like a go too kart that is lower to the ground.

But i don't like Contender that much :X

But seems very interesting trying it.

Contender is the El Snako DLC right?
