update: ghosts and live-rider
-
what's up guys, got a new update for y'all.

so @Pie42 and I have been working on a new version of ghosts for a while now. the idea was seemingly simple: a ghost format that, instead of saving keypresses, would save the bike's position and state every frame.
this would allow riders to make ghosts using any mod, like propeller or mini-bike, and maybe most interestingly, rewind and slow-mode. another cool aspect of this ghost format is the potential for Live Rider! being able to send the current state of the vehicles at any moment works out pretty well.
with this new db, there's a cool opportunity for a new ghosting system and leaderboard. but there are a few issues: the fr.app "ecosystem" is very open and free. switching gears and locking it down hard enough to make a fair leaderboard would be contrary to the site's goals.
so for the moment, the ghosts are simply a fun way to share your replays, play with mods, and just have a good time. check the now-playing tab and click on a ghost or a live rider to have the camera focus on them and watch them play!
and please be aware, these ghosts are in beta. very little has been done to safeguard these leaderboards from being cheesed, and the ghosts themselves may have unforeseen bugs. maybe in the future things will be set-up to have a more competitive ghosting mode, but that'll be left for the future after community discussions.
hope you guys enjoy!

Lets see some ghosts!!!! This track only works on frapp with mini-bike + propellor mods:
Was fun to explore the ride possibilities with these mods. You can pretty much go anywhere with the propeller lol
