Have you found the CD woody?

Yes I did but thanks to ATT's wonderful customer service I have been without Internet at home for the past four weeks. (Was just reconnected yesterday afternoon)

Its labeled Monster Truck Madness 2 Beta 2 and if I can get the green light from Phin I'll ftp it one of these nights.

Hmm Track pak? what's that?

Post by **Phineus** » Thu Sep 25, 2008 12:20 pm

It was made around August 1997 and has trucks and utilities too. I'm hoping Woody might be able to tell us more.... but he hasn't checked back since his above post, so dunno if all his connection problems are solved yet.

Monster Truck "PAK", sounds like something for the Nintendo 64.

They sold that in stores...I remember seeing it in Electronics Boutique. I think some software company just bundled a bunch of downloadables and support software for MTM1 and released it. Some weren't so happy about it.

Thats a new one on me, I recognize some of the track names but not the interface.

Hum... I remember seeing a CD on ebay called "Monster Truck Pak" or something like that. It was pink like the MTM2 cd. I can't find it now tho

This one is actually beta-3

MTM1 sounds/music
There are more commentaries of Army Armstrong during the race
You can increase/decrease the visibility by pressing ctrl+1/ctrl+2
The Heli doesn't stop when you press H again
You can unlock the graveyard
Textures and backdrop on Junkyard track are different.
There's 2 Outsiders
Some trucks are missing
Beta wheels-axlebar
Water is almost white
MTM1-like camera handling
It has a really cool colorful start screen

and nope, no chuck truck nor patriot truck.
Thanks Woody, and Phin for hosting the file.

Wow, the tracks sure seem different in the beta: Voodoo Island is alot different, Tinhorn Junction doesn't have all those annoying boulders on the road, and Tumbleweed Flats has less checkpoints plus petrol stations (I wish those were in the final game).

The trucks make better noises also.

Kmaster · Post by **Kmaster** » Sat Sep 27, 2008 1:19 pm

trucks make a really cool engine sound when they have to make a big jump

and now for some pics:

<table width='50%'><tr><td><img src="http://jpkmaster.googlepages.com/mtm2beta18.jpg"></td><td><img src="http://jpkmaster.googlepages.com/mtm2betascreen.jpg"></td></tr><tr><td><center>retail</center></td><td><center>beta</center></td></tr></table>

no crown, just garage and thats it.

Seems like this commentary got removed

anything that army says, goes to the screen, even the "GO!"

hyper with different, solid textures

adjusting visibility

adjusting water level

weird bug
you can also call the heli during a rumble.

tracks also were different, voodoo was a lot harder and really difficult to drive on, there are almost no models on sidewinder canyon, trucks had mtm1-like psychics, one collision and you went flying, most of the sound effects are from mtm1
