SKI (ALPHA): How to Open and Change Your Settings

SKI (ALPHA) buries most of its options behind a single gear icon on the Roblox HUD, and the menu controls more than you might expect: sound levels, your own music, whether other players can pester you with requests, and how smoothly the mountain runs on weaker hardware. Everything sits in one scrollable window called SETTINGS.

Quick answer: Click the gear icon in the top-left HUD bar, between the shop tag and the compass, to open the SETTINGS window. Adjust sliders and toggles there, then close it with the red X.

Open the settings menu in SKI (ALPHA)

Look at the row of icons in the top-left corner of the screen. You will see the Roblox menu, chat, microphone, reset character, a shop tag, the gear, a teleport compass, and a star.

Click the gear icon. It sits directly between the shop tag icon and the compass icon. This opens the SETTINGS overlay on top of the game.

Scroll through the window. Everything is grouped under a single PREFERENCES heading, starting with audio at the top and ending with the graphics sliders at the bottom.

Audio and music options

The first block of the menu handles sound. Two sliders split game noise from music, so you can silence the soundtrack while keeping the ski effects. There are also controls for the built-in library and a box for your own tracks.

Control	What it does
SKIS	Volume for skis, wind, jumps, crashes, and pickups.
MUSIC VOLUME	Sliding it all the way down turns music off; ski sounds stay on.
MUSIC LIBRARY	Shows the current track and offers CHOOSE SONGS and SKIP SONG.
YOUR OWN MUSIC	Paste a Roblox audio ID to play your own music instead.

For custom audio, drop a Roblox audio ID into the input box, or several IDs separated by commas (for example, 123, 456, 789) to loop them. Leaving the box empty keeps the game’s own music running.

The middle of the menu is a stack of on/off switches. Some change how you control the run, and the rest decide whether other players can send you requests. Click any switch to flip it.

Toggle	Default	Effect when on
TRICKS	ON	Allows trick inputs; turn off and steering and jumping still work.
TRADE REQUESTS	ON	Lets other players ask you to trade.
RACE REQUESTS	ON	Lets other players challenge you to a race.
GROUP INVITES	ON	Lets other players ask you to join their group.
MOUSE STEERING	OFF	Steer with your mouse; the A and D keys keep working too.
GHOST RACER	ON	Displays a translucent copy of your top run on this server, viewable only by you.

Turn off TRADE REQUESTS, RACE REQUESTS, and GROUP INVITES if pop-ups from other players are breaking your focus during a fast line.

Performance and graphics sliders

The bottom of the menu is where you trade visuals for speed. If the game stutters, the LOW PERFORMANCE toggle is the fastest fix. It switches off blur, clouds, and sun rays so the game runs faster, and the mountain itself still looks the same. It is off by default.

Below that sit two sliders, each with its own RESET button:

FIELD OF VIEW — widens or narrows your skiing view. Setting it to 0 keeps the current camera.
LOADING DISTANCE — controls how far distant terrain renders. Nearby obstacles always stay loaded, and 100% is the current distance.

Press RESET on either slider to return it to its default value if a change looks wrong.

Close the menu and get back to skiing

There is no separate save button; just close the window when you are done. Once you finish, select the red X in the SETTINGS window’s upper-right corner. The overlay disappears, placing you back in the game with your updated settings active.
