Hello, I've got an question.
Is it possible that someone from Nadeo can explain how we can make a checkpoint from our models. This would be so awesome
.
I can understand that this is maybe to much asked for now, but can you imagine what we can do with this, O boy o boy o boy.

It is not in the short term list of things to do. And this list is already quite big.
So, it would have to wait, even if aerial checkpoints are nice here ^^ Respawns shall have different rules, but they are.

would it be possible to load object via locator file ?
(example: TMCanyon a map with 3 "new Objects" - object not on client side - load from server or locator ?
that really would be nice , and wont force people to build a pack for each object they want to share.

Thanks, no problem. I know you guys are working very hard to get maniaplanet
in its complete shape! I'm allready very happy with the importer as it is for now.

it's a little confusing cause for the moment everybody will try to make objects and we'll have many titles for just one or two objects.
what i propose is to setup a maniapark title with all objects sent to the site, i'll update it every two or three days for the beginning and maybe week after week for the future. With this, everyone will be able to have fun with many different styles of objects and setup servers with only one title. I think it's the only way to make custom objects successful for the moment. Maybe when serious global mods will be make that'll be different but i think that we must have a global base for all objects.
What are you thinking about that all of you here ?

Hello
I agree with Alinoa.
Never If link hosting the object is broken! we have big problems playing our track.
Question:
Can we create objects with boost?

You just have to copy the directory containing your object in "My Documents/ManiaPlanet/Blocks/Common/"
Then you'll find them in the map editor (F4 to open the Object Mode)

What is the maximum texture size? Can I make one with a resolution of 4096x4096?

If be serious, I understood nothing here... Maybe I've missed something... hey guys , explain to a noob at modeling blocks, please.
1) If I got Maniaplanet.exe at D:/ , the folder "WorkBlocks/Canyon/***/" must be on C:/ or on D:/ too?
2) For example I want to make a simple fence for dirt tracks and I called my ".max" file as "Fence1.max" and want is exported to "F1.FBX" (
) with "Fence1_D(_S and _N).dds"s . In 3dsMax, do I need to name the mesh as "***_Lod0" or "_Lod0", and if first, "***" must be a "_TDSN_
MetalPlate_Ice"? (question what to put on the "MetalPlate" too...)
3) Does game crashes when using custom block with TM2Unlimiter?
4) Is "NotCollidable" means "DriveThrough"?
5) Also, before exporting, am I need to create both UV maps as like modifiers? ("Material" and "LightMap".)
6) Maxbox is still left as like for cars?
