Maniaplanet Update #4 - wishlist

[riolu]

It used to work in the Maniaplanet 3 Beta, for some reason Nadeo disabled envimixing on Stadium with the public rollout of MP3.

[haenry]

It does actually work and I've already driven maps with valley and Canyon car on Stadium. The car sizes are different, indeed, but that is actually the fun of it.

However, Nadeo actively disabled carmixing on Stadium for reasons they're not willing to tell us

[BestNoob]

- Fix Title Pack bugs
- Add direct InGame Upload for Maps and Mod support for ManiaExchange and Steam Workshop
also for the MP Installer and not only for Steam Version (maybe you can realise this with an manialink upload formular ? )
- better documentation and support for modders
- it´s confusing remove one please : wiki.maniaplanet.com / doc.maniaplanet.com
- put all informations anto a central place this time you have some on
maniaexchange, github, doc.maniaplanet, wiki, mania blog, steam, mp forum ....... all over the place
- improve forum overview
- fix menu and maniasite/manialink handling
- buy the maniacreative site and it content
- remove FreeZone from TM1
- let people use their TM United key to unlock TM2 Stadium
- changable daytime inside the video/replay editor
- weather for all games
- make it easier to share content .... give every player a space to host a maniasite /for each player a standard site with his name to present stuff and statistics (content still outsourced to dropbox and so on thats clear)
- push the rivality and "i wanna be better" feeling inside this game with more events and a statsitsic page (hideable)
- improve the game graphics engine i think the game can display better graphics
- improve the damage and car model
- when you install and remove steam version of a maniaplanet game parallel to ManiaPlanet installation .... the link to and with .gbx miles and manialinks is also removed.

- Spray and Sticker icons in editor are shown unsharp with edges.
- Blockmixing: Parts that are normally on the ground show ground textures when you put them in the air
- Many Textures in Canyon and Valley have a bad quality / 2D Textures and 3D Models doesnt fit 100%
- When you add an mod to a map (had this with valley) you can render shadows again and again .... option is all time available and not greyed out.
- Launcher: Tooltips would be helpful maybe add them
- Launcher: Konfiguration is fully translated but "save as" is shown as "save as" in all languages xD
- Menu: It is still hard to navigate and handle between game and manialinks/maniasites

Are my demands to offensive ? Or why do no one talk about this ? Have i made you speechlesss ?

[Guerro323]

- Improve MT with new geometric forms
- Download Titlepack or a map, when we play ( because we are obligate to wait :/ )
- Dirt block in valley without the forest
- Dirt terraformation in a forest or not ( valley )
- Valley : Add more terraformation block like canyon ( really hard to create a moutain with mixmapping ( obligate to copy this block, recopy an another moutain block , etc... )

- New Mediatracker camera: Helicopter.
I know there is a helicopter cam in the "Camera Race" options, but it feels like it's attached to a metal pole. It doesn't rotate or feel like it's dragged behind the car (Unless I'm doing something wrong with it). A helicopter cam that feels like it's attached with ropes or bungees that you can adjust the height, weight, drag, inertia and focus (loose or tight) would be cool. You can kind of simulate one with "Custom Camera" by attaching it to the car but it's movements need to be preset rather than based on the cars position.

Your demands are way too general. Examples:

Fix Title Pack bugs

Which ones are you talking about? How should anyone know which title packs bugs they should fix if you don't go into detail?

Many Textures in Canyon and Valley have a bad quality / 2D Textures and 3D Models doesnt fit 100%

Give examples of these "many" textures. Noone will ever know what you are talking about without clean examples. Proper bug reports would really help the devs to improve these texture/block issues.

fix menu and maniasite/manialink handling

What do you even mean by handling? Is it too unaccessible? Too restricted?

Most of your other improvement wishes are of very low priority or not even related to Maniaplanet.

remove FreeZone from TM1

buy the maniacreative site and it content

Other demands are simply naive:

let people use their TM United key to unlock TM2 Stadium

This would Nadeo make go bankrupt within 24 hours. TMUF is not related to Maniaplanet - they are two completely different games. It's like asking for a FIFA 15 key because you bought FIFA 98 back in the days. Either buy a key or play the demo, that's the deal.

- make it easier to share content .... give every player a space to host a maniasite /for each player a standard site with his name to present stuff and statistics (content still outsourced to dropbox and so on thats clear)

Who is supposed to pay all the resulting server load? It literally takes 2 minutes to register on Dropbox and have 2 GB of free webspace which you can use for Manialinks.

improve the game graphics engine i think the game can display better graphics

What makes you think the game can display better graphics? The game engine is definitely not going to change graphics-wise for Maniaplanet 4 anyway.

improve the damage and car model

Because damage is the most important thing in the game? The damage models are more than satisfying imo, and even if you don't like it you can always create your own 3D model with the craziest damage model 2015.


Some of your wishes are already possible too...

changable daytime inside the video/replay editor

Hold CTRL when selecting the replay in the menu. This allows you to change daytime and mod of the selected replay.

And for these next big steps, you are really welcome to express your wishes, as always: clear & simple, no debate, link to report when possible.

@acceleracer_01: Don't feed the troll.
@BestNoob: Only repost your wishlist if you added something new, else the topic will be flooded.

[riolu]

Wasn't feeding anybody. He wanted reactions on his wishes, here they are.

[TMarc]

@BestNoob: Only repost your wishlist if you added something new, and make the new parts visible, e.g. bold font, else the topic will be flooded.

ManiaPlanet 4. When it's done?
