Maniaplanet Update #2 - feedback (#2.3 released)

[Omnixor]

wait for hotfix -.-

[dreammyw0w]

so it is impossible:
I can not chat because I can not read
The font is smoothing
I can't make tracks
The update is obligatory

Chat reading : press C to open the chatwindow.
Font smoothing : disable anti-aliasing.

I haven't tested the update yet but I just wanna chime in to say that the word "Echelon" is really badly chosen. At first I thought it refers to the surveillance system ECHELON ....until I read the explanation for what it actually is. Never seen that word to mean "ranking" ....and I think the former connotation will pop up in a lot of people's heads as well.

[speedevolution]

for letters unfocused I had to put the antialasing .... now work....
but I can not put the pieces of dirt up ...

Fix this chat thing please... at least give an option to turn this feature on or off. Tm drivers really need to see the chat! This is somehow brakes the communication in a bad way...

This is a useless drastic change for TM.

This has been made for SM users that were asking for it. No doubt that there will be a feature that permit to choose.

Well, this is what you get when you have a company that makes same changes to different type of games. The chat fade-away was requested by Shootmania players (mostly, if not only I believe) yet they made the change to Trackmania? Hilarious if you ask me.

Not only that, but they refuse to look at other games which do this successfully and copy them, but keep on with this "We can't copy from other games, gotta do it our own way".

Maybe it's not like that, but it sure feels like they refuse to copy good ideas from other games.

Done started a completely new topic/thread on this chat situation http://forum.maniaplanet.com/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=20862 If things worsen, i might think about letting go of this whole maniaplanet. You guys done toke away the thing in the right top corner that shows when someone got in 1st place and even that is kinda annoying.

Can somebody from Nadeo explain how to add lights onto objects? I noticed it in the update notes, I also posted about it in this thread, But there isn't any explanation on how to actually do it.

Just updated... there is a hotfix:

quick update/fix
- There is now an option to autosave & concatenate rounds directly (profile, settings, advanced)
- Title editor working again
- Wheel sensitivity available with ingame input settings (to increase sensitivity)
- Semi rollback on chat hidding. Put 1 minute per default instead of 15 seconds. Will be a configurable option in the future or else.
