Title: New TrackMania 2 Stadium Server
Post by: static2601 on March 09, 2013, 01:15:53 PM
I have stopped this server a while ago, I dont have time to do anything with it right now. I need more maps and until then, I will keep it down. If people show more interest in it then i may bring it back online. Thanks.

I will probably be moving the server to my local computer so I can have full access to it and the database. I should soon have live ranking and dedimania records along with other plugins working on it. The other server will just be a waste of money and will cancel it. It was useless since I didn't have ftp access to it to install mods and maps. So, Ill keep you updated on progress.

If you just send me the gbx file through a file hosting (dropbox) or post it here.

--- Update ---

have created a new server on my computer and am now using XAseco2 which stores and lists everyones records for that map and server, also list dedimania records. I am still setting everything up but its up and running my 3 custom maps for now. You can join by #join=staticdediserver1@TMStadium into the in-game browser. Or you can search for servers in Ohio.

Ive added the long haul and the long and unseating journey. When you make the tracks you should try and do these things:

Dont make annoying things that make you fly off the track or something that ruins the flow of the game.
Try to make checkpoints so players can respawn closer rather then further away.
Add some props to the map to make it look nice and less empty, it really helps add to it especially if you cant see the whole track from the start line.
Make smooth transitions flat to incline for example, unless you mean to.
Don't make tracks that take more then a couple minutes to complete.

I don't consider myself good at making tracks for this but I think its some things we should keep in mind when making them.

Btw, I didnt add your "marathon" map because of some annoyances. maybe you could fix it up and add some stuff to spice up the surroundings. I liked the beginning though!

I will be adding a map voting system so we can see what others think about the maps we add and we can remove or fix them if need be. I removed HumanCatPost's "Welcome to Hell" track since people didnt seem to like it. One person commented "the person that made this map deserves to be crucified". lol

--- Update ---

Map voting now enabled.

--- Update ---

anyone is looking for this server (probably no one) it is down until more maps are created for it. No point in having the server up for everyone if it only runs a few maps. so, play the beta and make some maps for it. Btw, those who don't play it cause you think that you need to buy it and the demo is limited, well the demo pretty much is the full game minus a few things like getting planets(in game currency), solo times for the tracks and customized cars being viewable by other players. it does not limit the servers you can join or playability of the game. The the demo may not be up forever, when the game comes out in April, they may remove it, though this was in question by the game developers when people asked will there be a free version like trackmania nations and united.

Sorry static haven't been paying much attention to the game, I still enjoyed it though so when I have the time next I will try to start making maps you can use in the server.
