just bought a key. So I have the paid version, but I still see the other cars as do many people in gray.
The flags of the players in the game do not appear either.
Players on my team had updated without return key. They never bought Stadium2

So you did not make a free version at release ? That's really really shameful, I would have understood limitations from a paid version, but Stadium environment has always been free, and has always been the one to bring players to TM, and made them buy other trackmania games, even during Stadium Open Beta people who never played canyon before then bought it !
If you are considering making one, it should have been done at release, at LEAST for Open Beta players before the final terms would have been discussed.
Your community already has been decreasing it the last years, i'm unsure losing the emblem of Nadeo for many players, which is a free amazing environment in a game (thanks to this and the gameplay, and the fact that it was very well optimised)which is just about skill, nothing else, that even the best performances could be achieved for FREE, is a good idea for Nadeo if you want to make benefits and grow a new community !
That's all i can say, i'm really disappointed, i know what i'm saying wont change a thing, but it needed to be said.

that can happen when the multiplayer servers disabled P2P or your Peer-To-Peer cache is to small
go the the advanced settings, then on the Peer-To-Peer Cache change to size to 4095 instead of 600

As a "demo" it would be pretty nice if you could play the first 10 maps of Singleplayer (not offical times) and you can play yourself up to 10k online. (including every mode)
After you reached the 10k in Multiplayer you are able to play another 5h before the demo is over and/or play 10h in total. (the 10k might be cheatable by leaving every game before it ends)
With this "method" everyone is able to test Stadium 2 properly but has also the motivation/incentive to buy the game as soon as the demo stopped (ofcourse only if the customer liked it).
Now you can say, you can create another account and play again till 10k and so on, but I don't think it would make fun to do this multiple times and you would end up buying it.

There is a serious bug for me in the Steam version.
Since a Nadeo official said that the update should be pushed online soon I validated the game.
And Steam found one file that needed to be reaquired. Well, those happened to by me settings (or the file where the folder locations are stored) which I had moved from C to D alongside the custom data.
Happened twice, so it is easily reproducable. A bit disecouraging to always lose your personal settings when you validate the game
EDIT: I think it is a file where the folder location is stored which is validated although you can change it.
