Open-source version of TrackMania

[MatheusKS]

Hello!

I was searching some games for Linux (I use Linux Mint, besides Windows 7).
Then, I find this: http://maniadrive.raydium.org/
It's similar to the TrackMania (but TrackMania is better, so much better...).


Does anyone like it? I do not. I prefer TrackMania!

This is what happens when you put Trackmania on a Genesis, but with better Graphics then a Genesis. Did the creator even know about Trackmania? It even has the Mania part in it! (Don't forget the name "Rally" as well!) Oh well, could be a confidence. Nice game anyhoof. Pretty nice for a Fangame, at least.

quote from "about" page:

ManiaDrive is a free clone of Trackmania, the great game from Nadéo studio, and is an arcade car game on acrobatic tracks, with a quick and nervous gameplay (tracks almost never exceed one minute), and features a network mode, as the original.

Ah. Oops, heh... Now I feel like an idoit...

from the video, seems like the trackeditor is few times more powerful than TM one, and still easy to use...

Easy to use, the TM track/map editors always have been, luckily.

Look at this railorad editor, that also has terraforming and nearly free placement: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zS7w7hvHl_k
I remember MS Train Simulator editor, it was so complex that one needed a 3D modeller traning before being capable to use it, and also good imagination.
Just place a few rails was never enough to have a good map there.
