Maniaplanet 4 - Previews

Wait shit, Demented, does that mean that if MP4 comes out I might have to redo all my validation/medal runs for my entire titlepack?

I'm nearing completion of my titlepack and I'm considering just waiting for MP4 to come out and release it on MP4 instead of MP3, hmm..

This has been said many times on Discord, but not on the forums.

What's a point for remove a working DX9 render?! I have now a DX10 card (9800GT from 2008), but what people with DX9-cards will do?

Depreciation, cause devs move to greener pastures...
[s]well, there will always be people who go back to old games to learn new stuff...[/s]

The same reason why we need a wrapper to play glide games on modern systems. Or Wine, or....(console emulators count, given all the legal issues?)

My vid card only supports DX10 max. But I hope to eek out a bit of performance till I can make the jump to my own Linux environment.
Once DX11 kicks in, expect a drop in TM2 activity from me till I can make the transition.

**look above, trimmed here for space**

To go with XFCE? Are you saying you're running Linux? (In which case, kinda off-topic, but try pcmanfm )

Well, I've been trying to move to Linux for about 2 years now. (Since M$ is killed off XP)
I have 1 HDD that's my testbed to make my own Linux isos for my own use.

Based off Ubuntu,
replace unity with Xfce + that 9x-like XFWM theme,
replace g_music with VLC (though thinking of replacing that with SM Player instead)
Blender is a must-have package.
Mousepad instead of gedit,
Firefox over Chrome, etc...

I've read about PCmanfm, haven't tried that package yet.
Ideally I'd like to use ReactOS explorer with Linux.... but considering how ReactOS is targeted as a Windows explorer.exe replacement...and based on the search engine results I've gone through so far, my odds of using it as a Linux file manager replacement seems slim.

No, It shouldn't affect validations or anything like that and I don't know if MP4 will even have significant enough changes that replays between 3 & 4 will no longer be compatible. And again, to be clear, the incompatibility only occured when you tried to load replays made under MP2 and MP3 to race against at the same time.
