Trackmania 1 Tracks

[nicolasblack2]

Does anyone know if we will be able to play TM1 tracks on TM2?

[Ovid]

Canyon is a new envi so we will not be able to play a TM1 map.

I don't think it would be playable for example like TMNF cannot play other environment such as Island, Coast, Rally, Desert, Bay, and Apline.

About backwards compatibility:

(New)

TrackMania United Forever, fruit de l'union du TM boite rouge, de ses deux add-ons, de Sunrise, de son add-on, du jeu TrackMania Nations et finalement de l'add-on Forever et l'ensemble des circuits qu'il est capable de lire, y compris datant de 2003 restera en tant que TrackMania 1.

Maniaplanet est un nouveau départ qui bénéficie d'une rupture de compatibilité ascendante à certains niveau, dont on aurait pu garder pour le départ avec certains efforts additionnels, mais dont on aurait du à maintenir encore dans les années à venir.

Néanmoins, nous venons encore de faire un nouveau serveur dédié pour le jeu et certains systèmes en ligne sont encore développés en compatibilité avec celui ci, comme le réçent manialive, framework open source pour piloter les serveurs dédiés ou encore maniahome, pour permettre aux joueurs de recevoir des notifications des actions de leur buddies sur la toile ingame.

ManiaPlanet is a new start that will break backwards compatibility to a certain level, we could have kept it with some extra effort, but then we would have been forced to maintain that compatibility for many years to come.

Never the less, we have just made a new dedicated server for the game (TMF) and certain new online systems are still developed in compatibility with that, like the recent ManiaLive, an open source server controller, and ManiaHome, which lets gamers receive notifications about the actions of their buddies on the ingame web system.

In TM1 you cannot play tracks from one environment in another neither.
