Trackmania² Stadium Open Beta

[zyntex]

Hey guys,

I created a map validated it, computed the shadows all the stuff necessary.

So I went and created my own game (via the options menu) and choose my map.
The game is loading and I can play it.


Now, if my friends try to connect they get the simple message "cannot join server" that's all. Same for me when I try to join theirs.

So wheres the problem?

Please search here in the forum, or look in the Wiki, about the proper configuration of the advanced network and P2P settings, as well as for the Firewalls.

I opened the Ports:

UDP 80
UDP 443

TCP & UDP 2350
TCP & UDP 3450

Port 2350 (Server) & 3450 (P2P Server) are also configured under the Netwok tab in the Advanced Settings.

It would be a mistake to cancel a current new CAM2.I am about to be on hunger strike for keeping it

ok.
please check a few times with the Windows cmd command

Code: Select all

netstat -na

when your friends are trying to connect. Their network settings must also be adapted!
Did you try the "force local address" checkbox also?
The Wiki tells about port ranges, you might want to try that as well.

At the moment, the free access should be a station with time attack and a demo campaign. The paying version will have a full campaign, the official times, the custom modes, datas and other Maniaplanet services, including the planets and planets related services.

will owners of the FINAL free release version be able to spectate in all online multiplayer race servers? And if so, will we be able to see any custom mods that the server may have installed? What exact disadvantages will free users have?

I agree. The information regarding difference between free and paid is very vague.
Will the free version:
* have online play?
* have LAN mode?
* have same set of blocks as paid version?
* be compatible with Maps made in paid version?

Will someone please shed some light on this?

for last two points it's quite 100% to be the same.

I numbered your questions to respond to them individually.

1. Yes. Time Attack mode only.
2. I haven't heard.
3. As Omnixor said, considering the way TM works, I'm quite sure that they will always have the same blocks.
4. Yes. I'm quite sure maps will always be compatible with the paid version. However, from what I've read, there will be no track editor in the free version, so really all the tracks will be coming from users in the paid version anyway.

Thanx eyobo for sharing your understanding of the differences between free and paid. Interesting news about the editor. Hadn't heard about that.
