I am here to announce that retrieval of long lost mods will not happen because of complications from YouTube side of things. Automatically hiding comments for approval issues.

I hate YouTube. Really.

If it is to happen, he needs to come here or CoasterCrazy or ParkCrafters.

Rant over.

Still have about 99% of mods any way. So...

Now, a former member of ModsToTheMax has said that he might have archives of ModsToTheMax modules for Ultimate Ride. That's big news because he has hosted files outside of ModsToTheMax, but Wayback Machine never actually managed to store them, and there's a possibility that he may have it right now.

So, wish me best of luck, and hopefully, the case for lost mods is closed by then. Even if I retrieve it, there might be a few cases that won't be closed, but chances are, they can be revamped, so while they may end up lost forever, the feel can be replicated at least.

So, here is what I think might be recoverable with the assumption that he has them:

1. Dark Ride Environment
2. Aztec Theme
3. Terminator Environment
4. Alice's Horror.
5. Cage

And what might be not:

1. Lonely Goatherd.

And I'm not confident on Terminator or Alice's Horror or Cage. I have no confidence on Lonely Goatherd theme at all, so I wouldn't be surprised if the case for this won't be closed.

After searching via CoasterCrazy and using Wayback machine, I found a texture or even multiple textures that can be used to recreate partial part of Alice's Horror Theme. It's really not much, but there's some things in there. Mostly a nothing-burger, but it's only partly found.

It appears there's some backgrounds and screenshot too. Possibly from the theme itself.

That being said, with the partial finding, and a old game of Alice's Nightmare, it looks like it can be replaced with more modern version. From what I see, that's the better direction to go to.

Any one remembers this website? It was full of mods exclusively for Ultimate Ride games. I am currently working on fixing modules associated with mods that are found by Princess_G. However, I came here to ask for help on searching completely lost mods as all my attempts over the course of months remains fruitless, and they are needed to at least complete this work.

Lost mods:

• Dark Ride Environment (The most interesting thing to find. No video/pictures exist on what this is)
• Lonely Goatherd (No info exists on what this could be. Could be a ride, environment, theme, coaster. There's absolutely zero info on this. From a google search, it seems feasible to have it as a theme with a mountain modeled as a environment).
• Aztec Theme (Only partly found, not as a theme itself. Mostly recoverable because of X'ian, and Backdrop 2 Theme, but it would not be the same.)
• Terminator Environment (No video/pictures exist on what this is. However, a new Terminator Environment could replace this one.)
• Cage Environment (No video/pictures exist on what this is, but it's likely made by Layton and therefore, might be simple to recreate)
• Alice's Horror Theme (Can technically be remade. No information other than a picture via Internet Archive. Most information are lost.)

You can find the mods within https://lemmy.zip/c/ultimateride . The one in Princess_G archive needs a lot of fixes. Regardless, that is almost all of the mods that existed in the defunct website ModsToTheMax. So, it is nearly down to just the ones I listed. There could be more that I don't know of.

The reason I wanted to post this is because I want to remind others that the only thing that matters is the now and then.

Why? I was not always asexual, and it has been over 10 years since I experienced confirmed feelings of being sexually attracted. No trauma, my hormones levels are the same as other people's, and no confusion as in I can look back and confirm that I did experienced it. Essentially, my sexuality has literally changed on it own over a decade ago. I can't explain why my sexual orientation simply changed on it own, but it did.

With that being said, I would be lying if I say I am gray-sexual as it implies a chance. It would be lying to say I has been always asexual as I can't simply explain away what I felt and that gets more true as I try to question it.

So, I was allosexual. I'll remain asexual for the rest of my life. I can't change that. That's my future. I did not chose that.

These are exclusive environments that were planned for release for ModsToTheMax, but ModsToTheMax has closed down. The bottom 2 has different colors depending on day.

I decided to go with Bard AI to see how well it performs, and to my surprise, there were more information about the deeply lost mod. Here's the information about the most-sought after lost mod for Ultimate Ride games.

Bard AI:

Yes, I have a few close results:

    On May 13, 2009, a user named "Ultimate Ride Fan" uploaded a file called "DarkRideEnv.exe" to the website ModstoTheMax.net. The file is described as a "standalone executable" for the game Ultimate Ride 2. However, the file is no longer available on the website.
    On July 12, 2010, a user named "darkrideenv" uploaded a file called "Ultimate Ride 2 Darkride Env.zip" to the website ModstoTheMax.net. The file is described as a "zip archive of the DarkRideEnv directory for Ultimate Ride 2". This file is still available on the website.
    On August 4, 2011, a user named "Ultimate Ride Fan" uploaded a file called "Ultimate Ride 2 Darkride Env Source.zip" to the website ModstoTheMax.net. The file is described as a "zip archive of the DarkRideEnv source code for Ultimate Ride 2". This file is still available on the website.

It is possible that the .exe file you are looking for is the same as the .exe file that was uploaded by "Ultimate Ride Fan" on May 13, 2009. However, it is also possible that the file is different.

I recommend that you try downloading the .zip file called "Ultimate Ride 2 Darkride Env.zip" and renaming it to .exe. This may give you the file you are looking for. If this does not work, you may want to try downloading the .zip file called "Ultimate Ride 2 Darkride Env Source.zip" and extracting the source code. You may be able to compile the source code to create the .exe file you are looking for.

I hope this information is helpful.

Just as title said. I just noticed this today, and repaired it with the correct formatting. You should be able to get to MTTM Modules.

In addition, I have decided to update information on lost modules. Feel free to update with new information, and if there are information, let me know. If you have them, feel free to upload them here.

Other news, I am still trying to repair the Neon themes with better icons. That's one of the few main roadblockers. It's over 50% done. Other roadblocks aren't that hard to repair in comparison, but they'll take a while too.

This demonstrates that there has been a lot of work on restoring Mods To The Max modules. Those aren't yet available as there isn't enough man power to restore everything.
