.challenge maps

[Mazdabrap]

The server I play on had a lot of tracks from TMU. I can only find these tracks on TMX and they are a .challenge file and don't work in TM2. How can I convert them

If the maps are not password protected, open them in the editor, calculate lights and shaddows and save again, now the map works in TM2.
If they are protected, you can do it too, but a little more complicated, see here:

Just make a link at youre desktop to the manialauncher ( this one is used to convert maps )

Now change the properties of the link on youre desktop to :

Youre Game Path\ManiaPlanetLauncher.exe /computeallshadows /useronly /collections=Stadium /LmQuality=Default


Be sure you place the tracks in the right map.
The extension does not change btw, so they still called .challenge but they are converted.

To correct hackie there, don't make a link to your launcher, instead make a link to ManiaPlanet.exe, the parameters stay the same
