One of my update wishes for Trackmania is to have the option to turn the opponents transparent. Hylis told me that it is on their update list for the future. Then I thought about hearing players thoughts about it. What do you think, is it a cool feature? Do you want it? Or maybe you don´t care, or don´t like the idea?

You can have the transparency effect on you own ghost right now. I don´t know exactly which graphic setting makes the ghost transparent, but when I choose the "fast" configuration, my own ghost will be transparent. So, you can try this transparency effect with your own ghost to see how it is.

To me it seems an improvement for players who like to play with opponents visible, because they will still see the opponents, and will be able to have a clearer view of the track.

I have to agree with you, even-though I'm one of the persons who believe playing with cars on is the best way to enjoy the game. I was really stunned when I saw my ghost being transparent. It looks like a good feature, but I'm not sure how it will feel if there is a whole field of ghosts around you. You still see the cars, but they are less distracting and don't block your view of the street. Might be worth a test to see how it works.

Interesting possibility

The 'O' key knows have a new modes: ghost layer (all the cars are ghosted, not one by one)

Sounds like a step into the right direction. Anyone has tested it yet?

didnt test it too much yet, but seems pretty

thx for the fast update on this after my wish

Loving this update for transparent opponents ... Well done Nadeo
