Title: Trackmania
Post by: andrewm0304 on November 18, 2008, 02:40:32 PM: Anybody play it by any chance? Its a huge online racing game, and its free. :O

I've been in rooms where there are 150+ people racing on the same track, the offline mode is great too because there is a huge track editor with hundreds of pieces to build creative tracks with. If anybody plays my username is just andrewm0304. It has great graphics as well... check it out if you like racing. ;) I'll post links to some of my tracks later.

Post by: man manu on November 19, 2008, 11:05:00 AM: Cool! It actually looks quite good. Downloading it now. Do you have to have a good computer for it to run smoothly? Because my computer is a piece of ****!

EDIT: Andrew are you on steam?

Post by: somestrangeguy on November 19, 2008, 12:03:00 PM: Having good grapics card and computer helps alot.
Like comparing me and my freinds game, in my game the water looks just almost like real water, but in my freinds game, it looked like a blue surface.

Post by: andrewm0304 on November 19, 2008, 12:09:16 PM: Steam? Sorry I'm not sure what that is. :P
Title: Trackmania
Post by: man manu on November 19, 2008, 01:42:39 PM: It's a game thingy you get when you install the trackmania. Never mind. I added you as a friend ingame.
Title: Trackmania
Post by: andrewm0304 on November 19, 2008, 01:50:56 PM: Alright, cool. I'll be on later today, I play mostly on dirt tracks though. ;)

Edit: I hope yours is man manu, because I just added you ingame.
Title: Trackmania
Post by: man manu on November 20, 2008, 01:42:30 PM: Yes i am. I will not be on again until tomorrow though.

Post by: Serge on November 20, 2008, 02:20:28 PM: Hey, I remember I wanted to get this game some time ago.
Thanks for reminding me.
My Steam name is bazanski.
Title: Trackmania
Post by: andrewm0304 on November 20, 2008, 06:35:16 PM: I added all of you, nice to see that some people are playing. :D
Title: Trackmania
Post by: man manu on November 21, 2008, 02:51:30 PM: It's a great game! I'm pretty crap at the moment though. I normally crash but if i do actually complete a track I come in the top 10
Title: Trackmania
Post by: Reier on November 21, 2008, 04:40:38 PM: Cool game, but...$40?!? O.o Little too much for me.

Edit: is the "Nations forever" version free? I think I saw that somewhere.
Title: Trackmania
Post by: somestrangeguy on November 21, 2008, 05:23:06 PM: Yes, Nations is free version, United is the full version and costs money.
Title: Trackmania
Post by: andrewm0304 on November 21, 2008, 06:03:24 PM: There isn't really any point in getting United, or thats how it seems to me. Nations is great by itself.
Title: Trackmania
Post by: Reier on November 21, 2008, 06:59:51 PM: Is the Nations United version unlimited? ie. It isn't a trial for 30 days or something? It looks like a cool game, IMO.
Title: Trackmania
Post by: andrewm0304 on November 21, 2008, 07:19:46 PM: There is no limit to how long you can use it. :)
Title: Trackmania
Post by: Reier on November 21, 2008, 07:27:01 PM: Oh, OK, great. Thanx. =) I've downloaded it, and it's great.

On the game I'm going by the username "guyguy2214", because Someone else is already using the name Reier.
Title: Trackmania
Post by: Reier on June 16, 2009, 03:11:04 PM: Umm...sorry for the uber-bump, but this game deserves it.
A sample of what you can do with the game:

Post by: Condor33 on June 16, 2009, 04:41:33 PM: I have the free PC version and the one for the DS, it's pretty awesome but I haven't played in a while. Does anyone here have a private server?
Title: Trackmania
Post by: Reier on June 16, 2009, 05:00:10 PM: I was gonna make a GTM-only server but I forgot about it. Maybe I'll revive the idea.
Title: Trackmania
Post by: somestrangeguy on June 16, 2009, 05:19:12 PM: Im not sure if there's enough players here for that idea Reier.

I have some Trackmania vids too on my WeGame account (http://www.wegame.com/users/1nsane89/)
There is also some GMod stuff too.

Post by: Reier on June 17, 2009, 09:24:46 AM: Well, there's Me, you, am0304, C33, (maybe MM?), and uh.... oh yeah!
Me, you, am0304, C33, (maybe MM?)....and Me...and...am0304....

etc.

Post by: man manu on June 17, 2009, 09:57:33 AM: I used to play.
Title: Trackmania
Post by: RedSawn on June 17, 2009, 11:13:29 AM: I got the DS version, the original, and Sunrise. Still need to get Nations or United.
Title: Trackmania
Post by: Reier on June 17, 2009, 11:19:23 AM: I have Sunrise, Nations & United.
Title: Trackmania
Post by: somestrangeguy on June 17, 2009, 01:08:43 PM: /me has only Nations and United :/
I read about the game on Quinnes World Records Gamers Edition 2008, and then googled and stubled upon Nations, then tried to torrent United but none of them would work. Then the Forever released soon after and I upgraded to it and a few months later I bought United Forever.
Title: Trackmania
Post by: SpyGuy on June 21, 2009, 04:51:18 AM: KI only have the old original TrackMania, but would like to get the new ones, too.

Has anyone seen the Speed Racer movie? I think they stole a whole buncha ideas from TrackMania .....
Title: Trackmania
Post by: somestrangeguy on June 21, 2009, 05:10:23 AM: I have not seen that one.

I just last night uploaded this vid, what you guys think about it?

Title: Trackmania
Post by: Reier on June 21, 2009, 09:30:41 AM: Lol, is that the track you & me were goofing around in on the SFFN or something server?
Title: Trackmania
Post by: somestrangeguy on June 21, 2009, 04:25:02 PM: I dont really remember if you were on while I recorded these, exept that first one, I think you were AFK the whole time.
And the server name is listed in the credits, without the special charaters.
Title: Trackmania
Post by: Condor33 on August 01, 2009, 08:56:14 PM: Bumping this due to SSG's suggestion.

Hey, thanks for the video, SSG! Regarding D05, the way I always tried to do that was to try and get mega-air on the jump at 5:45 and then fly over the >>> sign. This was really effective but highly unreliable. By the way, where did you get that car?
Title: Trackmania
Post by: roboman2444 on August 01, 2009, 11:13:48 PM: i just got nations !!! it is awsome!!!
my username(guess what!) roboman2444
i can challenge somebody when i get back(tuesday)
Title: Trackmania
Post by: somestrangeguy on August 02, 2009, 07:02:59 AM: I once did that too, but it didnt go so well, so I decided to stick with the slow jump.
If the speed is way too high, then you need to press brake earlier, possibly when you are still on the ground.

Title: Trackmania
Post by: Condor33 on August 02, 2009, 08:54:09 AM: Good, we have another player! We should set up a server sometime. I can't host though, my new router insists I use dynamic IP.

EDIT: Wow, I'm a heavyweight now!
Title: Trackmania
Post by: Reier on August 02, 2009, 03:25:25 PM: I talked to am0304 a while ago about a GTM-only Nations server, but we thought we didn't have enough people. Maybe now we can.
Title: Trackmania
Post by: Condor33 on August 02, 2009, 07:24:27 PM: I don't think there's anything wrong with creating a two or three player server, people do it all the time.
Title: Trackmania
Post by: Reier on August 02, 2009, 07:42:57 PM: I'm not on very often, but maybe I'll make one.

Post by: Bot_smasher on August 03, 2009, 12:23:21 PM: I have trakmania and this isin't it. Do you mean trakmania forever?
Title: Trackmania
Post by: DuckRA2 on August 03, 2009, 12:43:31 PM: just out of curiosity but does anybody use a joystick/controller for trackmania? Because I did, and it was much easier
Title: Trackmania
Post by: Condor33 on August 03, 2009, 01:51:47 PM: I have a gamepad but never got around to programming it. This is a good idea.

I have a stearing wheel for it, but not the version from the picture on page 1.
Title: Trackmania
Post by: somestrangeguy on August 03, 2009, 02:51:35 PM: I use use a PS2 controller trough an USB adapter.

Bot Smasher: Yes, I have Trackmania United Forever, but there is the free version, Trackmania Nations Forever.

Title: Trackmania
Post by: Reier on August 03, 2009, 06:27:49 PM: I have a PS2-like USB controller I use for RA2, but I don't like using Trackmania with it for some reason.

Post by: Somebody on August 03, 2009, 07:38:49 PM: So thats why all of the controls on your bots are freaky when I d/l them...
Title: Trackmania
Post by: Condor33 on August 04, 2009, 06:55:44 AM: Yea it's like R_(controller name goes here)-X_01_Pos1 or some long serial code. Impossible to understand...

I'm done installing my game, but I have a noob question, how do you import cars?
Title: Trackmania
Post by: Bot_smasher on August 04, 2009, 06:42:55 PM: I have no Idea.

Oh, and if you have Trakmania, do you have to pay for Trakmania Forever, or is it like DSL?
