Q. How do I manage replays?

A. Replays are normal files. They are all stored inside a folder named 'replays'. To open the 'replays' folder, on Windows desktop:
1. Double-click My Computer icon.
2. Double-click the C: drive. 
3. Double-click the 'Program Files' folder. 
4. Double-click the 'MonsterTruckStuntsDemo11' folder. 
5. Double-click the 'MonsterTruckStunts_res' folder. 
6. Double-click the 'replays' folder.
[*] If necessary, you can browse back (out of the current folder) by pressing the backspace key (it is right above the big 'Enter' key).
[*] Replay file names have a .rpl extension (for example, 'myreplay.rpl'). You can rename them, copy them, delete them and send them to friends.
[*] Replay (.rpl) files have usually a companion stunt (.snt) file. You should rename, copy, delete and send to friends the companion file as well.
[*] If you have installed Monster Truck Stunt Rally to a different folder than the suggested default, the path to open it may be different.

Q. How do I send a replay to a friend?

A. You can send both the .rpl and the .snt files attached to an email to your friend. See your email program documentation to know how to attach files to emails.
You can also copy the files to a floppy disk and then give your friend the floppy. To copy a file, click once on the file and then press Ctrl and C simultaneously. Then browse to the destination folder or disk (A: in this case) and press Ctrl and V simultaneously.

Q. How do I create new custom truck colors (skin)?

A. You need a paint program, like for example Windows Paint (Start->Programs->Accessories). 1. By using your favorite paint program, open the file named 'skin_reference.bmp'. It is stored inside the 'trucks' folder, with all other available skins.
2. Select the 'Save As' option to save it back with a new name. Make sure you save it to the 'trucks' folder. It will create a new skin file in the folder.
3. Now you can modify the skin by using the paint program drawing tools.
4. Before exiting the paint program, remember to save the modified skin by selecting the 'Save' option.
The new skin is now available in the game. You can assign it to the truck in the game main screen by selecting Options => Truck Colors.
