ManiaPlanet - demo , wtf???

Post by Adrian98765 »

I installed Trackmania 2 Stadium with ManiaPlanet after a long time ;) about 1-2 years.

I entered in. I played it for about 30 minutes..then I was going to youtube for some fun :D...after 2 hours i get back to the game, and it asks me for an update from 25 July..i downloaded it. after installing updates , I seen that my game ( Trackmania 2 Stadium) is demo.. WTF?

I have account , all is good....

There was no demo after

The directory have 838MB...

what can I do? -> bug.

Did you use exactly the same account you used 1-2 years ago?

Yeah..i tried to log in with my account..and it says that it doesn't exists..so I created it.

The strange thing :

The game transformed into a demo after downloaded the update.

If you created a new account without a new key, it`s either way a demo account. The key you bought and put in 1-2 year ago is bound to the the account you used there. If it says account doesn`t exist, maybe there is somethting wrong with the name or pass maybe?!

I don`t know if it is still the same after the release of the Universal demo (I have all games, so I can`t check it), but in former times you could check it like this:

Go to the playerpage (https://player.maniaplanet.com/account/downloads), login with the account you are using and check which games are available to download.

1) If only the Minimal setup is available, you are using a demo account and you have to find your correct old account informations to play the full game again

2) If the separate Stadium installation is available too, there is indeed something wrong with your game. Maybe try to reinstall it?

Like said, this was a good way in the past, I don`t know if it still works this way now, maybe all installations are available anytime now.

What is still bothering me, is what you wrote here:

Because if you created a new account, you need a new key for that account to play the full game, otherwise it`s demo.
