MX vs. ATV Legends v2.03 Tweaks Braking Physics, Adds Washougal Motocross Park

Rainbow Studios released a new patch for MX vs. ATV Legends that I had missed about a week ago. This update tweaks and fixes a number of issues, adds Washougal Motocross Park (via the Track Pack) and updates physics under braking.

Highlights

• Updated rear brake behavior to make it function more like a rear brake should. Rear Brake now locks the tire when braking hard, making brake-sliding into turns more believable. Rear Brake now locks the tire when Airborne and also adds Brake Gyro.
• Added a feature which prevents vehicles from sticking together when colliding with an AI Vehicle.
• Made it easier to chain together stunt combos by fixing underlying issues in the stunt system.
• Added Alpinestars Supertech North rider gear in Light, Dark, and Custom Color.
• Many minor improvements to rider and vehicle animations, loosened-up riding and cornering animations a bit.
• Fixed issues which could cause weather audio to be absent or vehicle audio to be drowned out during intense weather.
• Updated 2023 RedBud to appear more authentic to the real-world race.
• Added Rainy conditions to 2023 Southwick and the upcoming 2023 Loretta Lynn’s.
• Even more 2023 Pro Motocross tracks on the horizon!
