Hey mod lovers of TMX
With the opening of ManiaPark I'm finally going to present my so far finished mod creations which I have been holding back since a few days.
A quick word before the presentation: All the mods I made are optimized for RPG tracks. I tried to keep the filesize under 50mb and so I had to prioritize on the Arena textures, which are most important for RPG tracks. All the scenery textures are mostly just low quality....but I tried to make them fit into the environment.

All the mods (except Mass Effect) are: Free to download, free to distribute and free to edit!
You can put these mods on your Manialink or elsewhere and edit them however you like...but I don't want you to sell them for Planets. That's my only wish. And of course crediting me as the original author would be appropiate.
Thanks and now for the mods:

Mass Effect

A transformation of the Canyon into a moon landscape with blocks that resemble the architecture found in the game Mass Effect. A lot of time went into the making of this mod and it's one of my favorite mods. Hope I don't disappoint, having said that
This mod is the only mod that costs Planets. As a way to pay for all the other mods that are free to download..

Cryo

The idea behind this mod was to create a setting that would resemble my idea of the ShootMania environment Cryo....a military complex set in a snow environment.

LEGO

Let's play LEGO! This mod is my take on the toy every kid loved in their childhood. So why not renew those beloved memories by putting it into the most awesome toy for grown-ups: TrackMania!
It is recommended to play with 'very nice' settings when using this mod, otherwise you won't be able to see any depth in the bricks.

The Lost Tribe

This mod is set in the african savanna/grasslands where the last unknown ancient tribe resides. Lots of wood and dry material textures were used to give this savanna impression.

Isla De Muerta

IslaDeMuerta...the fictional island from Pirates of the Caribbean on which lots of gold was hidden by pirates. I tried to achieve an atmosphere which resembles such a pirate gold mine. I deviated though from the look of the fictional island, insofar that it doesn't have a dark feeling, more like a tropical atmosphere.

Biohazard

A nuclear waste facility gone overkill. That's the scenario you will find yourself in this mod. I tried to make the atmosphere as toxic as possible and to give the impression of being inside a facility.

Ancient Egypt

In this modification I tried to create an atmosphere resembling an egyptian pyramid/temple. A lot of sand textures, stone walls and hieroglyphs included.

City of Z

"City of Z" is the name of an ancient city located in the Amazonas, built by an unknown civilisation. Today only some fragments remain...but we can try to imagine how it looked like in earlier times. I applied lots of vegetation onto the surfaces, mixed with cryptic symbols. I hope the atmosphere turned out to be convincing.

Medieval Fantasy

Upon beginning to create this mod, my goal was to give the mod a similar feeling as the stadium "Middle Age" mod. It got dragged into a fantasy atmosphere however somewhere in the mod-making process...and I'm quite happy about that. So there you go...a fantasy middle age mod. I hope it suits your taste!

Greek Antiquity

Basically this is a remake of my "A Romanorum Superbia" mod in stadium...only looking much nicer (I hope so). The setting depicts a greek temple and what is associated with its surroundings. Most of the textures are therefore of polished stones with an antique feel to it.

IRAQ

I chose the setting of this mod to be the hot and dry outskirts of Iraq with a lot of weathered and destroyed surfaces. The only surfaces that are not destroyed are the oil pipelines ^^

Grande Muraille Canyon

This mod is a remake of the original stadium GrandeMuraille mod. I tried to recreate this kind of Tomb Raider feeling that the original GM mod offered. An aged temple atmosphere with a bit of vegetation but with a hint of lasting civilisation. Hope the atmosphere is as good as the original one.
