 New Year : Same old fun!
by  MrA at 03 Jan, 2014  
Next Knockout Events: Super Saturday 4th Jan 2014
These are the first Knockouts of the year!

And for the first time ever, lets do 4 Knockout Events in 1 day :o

Stadium KO - 09:30 GMT
Canyon KO - 11:30 GMT
Valley KO - 20:30 GMT
TMX United - 22:30 GMT

Also remember that at 19:00 GMT there will be the weekly SmurfsCup! Which will be driven in rounds on 7 tracks on the Smurfen.net TM2 server which is located in the Netherlands.

Be sure to know your own time zone relative to GMT!! ... (google is a great place to check it)

All you have to do to play is be there on the Knockout server, so why not make this your late late new years party!!!

;) Try to be on time, else you could miss out!
We are aware the site is slow today.

We are running an important update in the background, and it takes a while to update. It will finish by the morning and things should return to normal.

Thanks

Yesterday we got our first christmas present as the
>>>RPG title pack is officially released for for TM2:S!<<<

Credits to the whole RPG community, especially to Ziza, HawkGer and Maxi@031 who developed the whole thing FOR FREE!!!

For sure this pack can be used for any trackstyle. Go ahead and let your imagination go...
Watch this video by shortz for some impressions.

Let me quote Sky:
... says:
Wow. I was nearly speechless while driving this track. This title pack is the best thing that could happen to Trackmania. I'm amazed that it is created by the community. You guys realized something Nadeo wasn't able to create for Trackmania 2. For free. The possibilities are endless, I guess this title pack will be my move from TMNF to TM².
The track itself is absolutly stunning, the atmosphere is awesome, just as the path through this building. It was maybe the most beautiful experience since I started to play this game with TrackMania Original.
The best gift Trackmania will receive this christmas.
Thanks to everyone who helped creating this title pack and thanks to you, vklf, for this track!

There is now less than 1 week left before the deadline closes to submit your track entry to Nadeo as part of the 10 Years Competitions!.

Useful MX Links
Thread on MX forums
MX upload link
MX track group for maps uploaded

The Most Important Links
Nadeo's entry submission page
Nadeo's Offical rules

As you know, maps can be uploaded to either Mania Exchange or Steam Workshop - I've no idea how many entries there are from Steam, but MX has not made many (looking at the list). So come on everyone, we can't let Steam Workshop win!!! -

Lets see some more entries from the MX population!! ;) - Overwhelm them with MX powa!

Basic Rules
o Players may only use TrackMania2 Stadium.
o First 10-15 seconds as PF that leads into a jump.
o Use a [10th] tag in the map title
o No custom signs, graphics, music, mods
o Upload your map to Steam (cough!) or ManiaExchange (click!)
o Post a link to your upload here: Link Submission Page

Soft Rules
o 3-5 second intro is encouraged (longer not encouraged)
o Copper Cost: Please try to not exceed 5000.

Building Advise
Build so a beginner can drive the track. The track length should be 40-50 Seconds. Players should be able to complete the track in one attempt. No section should require “perfection” in driving or speed... (if you can think back so far, think about StarTrack). Respwans should work.

Time for another one!

I have downloaded collections of short maps from the Trackmania Original (TMO) TMX site... the maps are from these guys: Fistule, Rax, MrD, JayPee, Nazgul, TeK, SMC, OgrO, FredoLeDingue

It will be a Retro TMO Knockout!

Starting
Thursday 14th November : 20:30 GMT (21:30 CET)

We love Trackmania so much this month, that we thought it would be nice to run the occasional spontaneous knockout.

Join the Usual TMU KO server before the designated time to take part!
