Importing items from TrackMania Turbo

Post by koopermatt »

Hello,
I have been trying to import items from Turbo (like the arrow cubes, donuts, pigs, etc.) to TrackMania².
The collisions and general shape works perfectly. But here's the thing : The textures don't.
Having never made any item for TrackMania, I have no idea how that works. Could you help me find out how to import the textures too?

Speaking of textures, where are the textures for each enviro (IN TURBO) stored? I'm trying to find Lagoon Rollercoaster's and Valley Down&Dirty's to try and make a mod for TrackMania²'s Lagoon and Valley with them.

Hello
For the textures, go to the place where its installed mine is.
C-DRIVE/Program Data/ManiaPlanet/Packs Cache..then look for the folder example TMValley_HD.
copy and paste this folder somewhere example on another hard drive due to the size of this folder, or a place of loads of room, Make a new Folder to add the TMValley_HD and drop it in it...

Now extract this folder inside the one you just made.
Click on Example Valley/Media/Texture/image

thats it all valley textures..
stuck give me a shout !

Now for import textures example from lagoon to valley not sure if that can be done due to fact the textures in lagoon is not in valley.
But i am not the person to give you advice on importing textures across mixed worlds sorry

Thank you, but I meant Turbo. I know how Maniaplanet works, but Turbo is just so restricted, I can't even find basic files.

Turbo textures are stored at a different location (and some are hidden), i guess you didn´t imported them, you just copied them? This ain´t work.

Thank you, but how do I import them?
I figured that as they used the same engine, these items might work in ManiaPlanet too.
I found a folder named "Texture" containing Turbo's items' textures, and tried to put for example the PitClub texture folder in the PitClub item folder in my Maniaplanet item folder, and it still displayed them green and purple like on my pic.

You can't import them, because you can't get the fbx files
