Go on www.youtube.com
Make a user (if you haven't got one already).
Log in.
Click "upload".
Go through the instructions to upload your video.
When the upload is complete, wait for youtube to process it (this could take anywhere from a few minutes to a few hours).
Send the link to friends, add your movie to this site and show it off!

I think you are talking about the new version of the game that is not yet released. (It is expected to come out around August-ish.)

If you want to draw in colour, add new line types, do tricks in mid-air, etc then wait until the game goes on sale and buy it New Winking Icon

Red lines is the simple answer.

Press "h" while playing for help with all the basic controls.

Is this in the old flash version of the game, or the new silverlight version?
Are you trying to play your tracks on the same computer, at home, or are you logged on at school/on a different computer, logging in to this website with the same user name?
Does your computer automatically delete internet cookies, or are you deleting them manually?
Are you doing anything strange with your savedlines.sol file?

I'll need a bit more information before I can answer the question.

1. Record in slow motion by pressing "m" (if you're not already), then speed up the video.
2. Have you got a lot of programs running besides line rider and hypercam? If yes, close them when making the recording.
3. If you need to slow it down even more, download cheat engine 5.3

How do i upload videos to youtube from my iphone?

@spectaa - Does your computer have a website filter on it, installed by one of your parents? That's the only thing I can think of that would cause this (other than a virus or something), so you'd need to talk to them about it if there is.

@Zedoyon - Click one of the links on how to record your tracks at the top of this page Smiling

@DORAG777 - The silverlight (online) version, and old flash versions are free. The new, updated games for your phone, PC, DS or Wii cost money.

@Mikeo423 - I don't have an iPhone myself, so I don't know exactly how it's done. But if you can get upload the video onto your PC somehow (bluetooth/USB maybe?), then information on how to upload it onto youtube is at the top of this page.

Because I am a VIP member - just like Count Bruno, RidintheLines, fsk and FlagPole. To become a VIP, just stay on the forum, being active and helpful - then you'll get noticed by the inXile staff Smiling

Those are called "gravity wells", and can only really be created using trial and error... but there are literally hundreds of tutorials on how to do them on youtube, so just search for one if you need guidance!

Thank you agent smith. Your a big help! Any way i have another questin for you. (Sorry) I have recently updated to SilverLight and when i clicked on the song button it brought up a box that had a list of songs. I wasnted a song of my own so i clicked on the dot that said "play the song from the following URL". I typed the songs name in but i heard nothing! Can you help? Thanks! Laughing out loud

A URL is not the name of the song - it is the address of a web page. For example, the URL of this page you are looking at now is http://linerider.com/en/comment/reply/254855/83450

If you want to play your own music, then you'll need to do one of two things. Either:
1. Play the music on your computer/CD player/whatever, without using linerider for music at all. In other words, if you have all your songs on your computer, then just open the file yourself so that it plays in windows media player.
(or) 2. Put the URL (i.e. web address) of the music you want to listen to into linerider. If you do not know a website where the song you want to listen to is stored, then you'd have to upload it yourself somewhere -- there are many websites you can use that will let you upload your own files, so I'm sure google will help. But to be honest, if you just have the music stored on your computer, then it would be much easier to play it without uploading it anywhere.

What music are you trying to play? How do you normally play it, without anything to do with line rider?
