Maniaplanet Update #4 - wishlist

[LT.Forever]

Find another key for in-game script editor. My kb doesn't even have a scroll lock

- Anti-aliasing
- Main screen UI (the mix between the normal Ui and the Ui within the manialink browser is strange)
- Display the team logo on the pole even when it's not at 100%.
- Trigger a maniascript event when a player cross a gate.
- Make the offzone see through and moddable.

Why isn't it possible anymore to use custom codecs for replay rendering? AVI is so big and Webm has no sound =/ hope i didn't overlook anything.

I've tried to search for pegi rating while ago for storm... and couldn't find it... so a pegi rating even if may cost some, but it's worth getting for maniaplanet in general, or if it has it already, you are not stating it clearly since i didn't find it

I inquired about this with Ubisoft when ShootMania was released as well, and was told they aren't required to do it and didn't feel the need. I told them at the time that this would help many parents feel better about buying it for their kids since I imagine it would be a "T" ESRB rating as opposed to "M"; and 12+ PEGI as opposed to 17+ (not sure what the ratings are like there). Most shooters of today are "M" and parents that care would be happy for ShootMania to be the compromise on shooters that their kids are most likely begging to let them play. Great suggestion, reaby!

I thought of a couple more:

• Documentation of how model skin/avatar/horn file distribution works, for both locators and p2p, so we can better troubleshoot when others aren't seeing our custom content
• (NadeoLive?) - "Favorite Servers" page should act like the "Server Browser" page on player.maniaplanet.com ... it used to but it doesn't anymore.
  
  How it works now:
  
  
  What it should look like:

Thanks again for all the hard work! It's awesome!

1. ManiaCode for playing a map on a precise title
2. Possibility to obsolete files, folders, objects, items, etc in a custom title pack.
3. Correct BlockId in CTmEvent when block is a custom CP.
4. More car physics/dynamics parameters in ManiaScript (Gravity, AirControl, etc...)

ManiaPlanet :

-Update of the Official Store : we need something to spend Planets but for SM there is only Susu and Alienware skin (and there are free -___-)

Editor :

- New Free camera : It's too hard actually to build indoors maps
- Weather via MediaTracker: In Storm there is the word Storm, so where is the rain ?
- Mood.MoodSettings.xml directly ingame with a MoodEditor
- Ambiance Track not synchronized betwen players, need to be in server side instead of client side (impossible for example to make some wave of heavy fog) http://forum.maniaplanet.com/viewtopic. ... 67&t=28144
- Action Maker => Weapon Maker => Add one or more static bots in the default test map (easier to test homing, bump and dammage)


Importer :

- Possibility to create Spawns, Poles and Gates as like we can create Start, CP and Finish for TM


Other :

- Moddable Texture Offzone
- Documentation... ... ... can't find how to correctly use the Item Editor, don't know how to use FxCameraMap and create our own colorgradding in Mediatracker etc...
- Rework the Forum and remove the MP3Beta forum it's useless now and there are the supports forum
- A visual maniascript editor like we can see in TimeSplitters or more recently in Project Spark (or some engines like Unity and UDK4)

* Ability to add multiple objects at once in the title-pack creator in-game

Apart from that, I am happy with what we have
maybe the next trackmania environment could come with mp4

• Background Updating!!! - Allow me to download a title update in the background while still allowing me to play a title that is already up-to-date. (Example: ShootMania needs an update, but I get to go play Canyon while the SM update is downloading/installing)

Also, this please!!! Same could apply while you are downloading an environment entirely. So that while I download Valley I can play Canyon^^
