Is there any way of recovering an old account from around 2008-2012? I tried my old credentials from the website I remember growing up but they didn't work I assume since the site got modernised and new structure not everything old got migrated across. So yeah just wondering if I can get my old account account back with the tracks I made. The account username is Jaztheboy.
Try asking Calculus. However, your account sounds too old for Free Rider HD, as this version of the game was released in 2014. I also couldn't find an account with the username "Jaztheboy" on this game, so perhaps your account was on BHR or Canvas Rider?
It was around when free rider 2 was out I remember the website being a host for the game and a collection of tracks. the website was a cream colour with maroon red accents from what I recall maybe it wasn't an official site but I remember the site being quite popular and populated with a lot of tracks. I do remember the site having a full account system for uploading tracks and commenting and liking and such for each of the tracks. Just finding the site would be helpful if you know anything at all thanks.
I've just found the website that hosted it, I believe it was called 'pinkbike' although I don't know if it was called that back then but I definitely remember the website colour scheme as this:
I think the site is actually called http://trackmill.com/free-rider-2 and pink bike just showcased popular videos on there site
This thread may be relevant. https://community.freeriderhd.com/threads/free-rider-archives.14534/ But yeah, you'll probably have to make a new account, as I don't think most accounts were transferred from the older versions. If you can find your tracks, it is probably possible to get the track codes from your tracks back in some way, but I don't know a convenient method for doing it, other than asking the coders. I think isekeb, Pie42, and Calculus are the more active ones.
