Maniaplanet Forum

The biggest issue might not be the graphics / engine issue, because this only requires some time to update the old environments, but the ladders and other skill points from TMUF users.
If "Trackmania Classic" remains its own universe inside Maniaplanet, it will not re-unify the community here.

That's why you are working on TMT?

Because it's a good challenge made us better is several areas like UI, VR and made us improve the engine with DX11, added several engine features and script capabilities and more which may not have been the case with a Trackmania "Remaster".

But that's what TM2 should be for us but it's too late, ubisoft want money, you need money for near future. Maniaplanet is a graveyard that can't be resurected with 1 year patches.

lack of patches was just one of the many huge problems that TM2 and SM had, i thought that TMT would be the ultimate TM that will succeed where TM2 failed but that's not going to be the case judging from the Questions & Answers Trackmania Turbo topic

Well, I think TMTurbo is a "closed" system, which means, this is just a game without any 'special' features. If TMTurbo is done, then it's done and does not need "big" updates. Maniaplanet is in this case an "open" system, where you can modify everything. [...] If Nadeo has finished somewhen TMTurbo incl. some hotfixes, they will comeback to Maniaplanet with a "higher" updaterate for it (?) ^^

it would be ideal if the newest title that is going to resurrect the series had the special features and the big updates don't you agree?

Nice response, thanks for that ...

That was for disposableaccount, we explained several times the philosophy and the model behind Turbo. I'm not gonna repeat myself at each of his posts when on top of this, someone already answer well to his questions.
You should stop answering him.

You can also post nothing instead of those stupid images

Anyway, seems pretty clear that TMU won't come to ManiaPlanet.
Let's see what else you guys have for ManiaPlanet to make sure it won't die any further soonish
