Swap a model, see it straight away

Until now, changing a bike's model left the garage showing the old bike. The reload rebuilt FrostMod's content lists but not the preview you were looking at, so the only way to actually see your new model was to switch bike class away and back — an unmarked step nobody would guess.

That's fixed. Swap a model — from the F8 menu or from MXB App — and if it's the bike you currently have selected, it changes right there.

It only ever touches the bike you have selected. Swapping a model on some other bike won't disturb what's on screen.

Also new: MXB App can talk to FrostMod properly

MXB App has been able to ask FrostMod to do things for a while, but the message channel only existed on the app's side — FrostMod was never listening, so those requests went nowhere. It listens now. That's what lets a model swap in MXB App refresh your garage without you touching the game.

Groundwork for the in-garage bike switcher (swap your whole bike mid-session, offline) also landed here, though the switcher itself isn't wired up yet.

Worth knowing

To refresh your bike, FrostMod watches how the game loads bikes and replays that same load. That watch used to be an opt-in diagnostic; it's now on for everyone, because it's what the refresh is built from. It only reads — nothing is replayed unless you swap a model, and then only for your selected bike.

If a refresh can't be done safely, FrostMod leaves the game alone and tells you to re-select the bike — you'll never be left with a broken-looking garage. Details land in frostmod.log as [bikefresh] lines if something looks off.

This is the first build with the refresh in it and it hasn't been through a wide test yet. If a model swap doesn't show up, re-selecting the bike in the garage still works exactly as before. Reports welcome.

Install

Download Release.zip below, unzip, run frostmod.exe. Already running FrostMod? frostmod.exe --update pulls this build.

The .dll / .dlo / .exe files are also attached individually — the updater fetches those by name, so you don't need to grab them yourself.
