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.

IRVINE, Ca. — Progressive Democrats are bracing for tens of millions of dollars in campaign ads from pro-Israel groups to rain down on them in this year’s primaries. They’re a little surprised about where it started — a stretch of Orange County where neither Democratic candidate is calling for a Gaza ceasefire.

In California’s 47th congressional district, which Rep. Katie Porter is leaving to run for the U.S. Senate, the American Israel Public Affairs Committee’s campaign PAC has gone all-in to beat state Sen. Dave Min in Tuesday’s primary. As of Thursday, according to the United Democracy PAC’s FEC filings, it’s spent $4.6 million to pummel Min, the vast majority of its ads and mailers focusing on his May 2023 arrest for driving under the influence.

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.
