You need to recompute shadows in the tm2 track editor so I've heard.

... in other words -- take your old map, put it in ManiaPlanet's map folder (where appropriate), open the track in MP's track editor, validate, compute shadows.

You don't need to validate.

Just re-save it with computed shadows.

Alternatively, you can copy a bunch of TM1 Stadium tracks to your "My Maps" folder and then use a batch command to compute shadows on all of them at the same time. More info about that in this topic:

How can you tell whether a map has lightmaps (has been converted for TM2) already or not?
One of the easiest ways is looking at the filesize. Maps with a lightmap included will be in the triple digits in KBs. Maps from TM1 without lightmaps included will be in the double digits in KBs.
