Trackmania Nations Forever


Recommended Posts

It is finally out. After the success of Trackmania Nations. We now have Trackmania Nations Forever. I won't go in to detail about the game as most people will know what it is. People who have Trackmania United, there is a patch that will update your retail version. I guess that'll include the new tracks and compatibility for people to play with Trackmania Nations Forever players.

I suppose we can double up this thread to post peoples user id's and maybe arrange some games. My ID is Lingwo (i think). Been awhile since i booted up United. Hope to see some of you online.

You bought United Uni? I didn't know that....still haven't got it.

haha yea i decided to buy it last night as i really wanted to play United again, so now i have Trackmania United Forever, which has United and the Nations forever in the same game :)

I got the pack for United. It's a great update with lots of new challenges, and the way it merges the Nations and United communities is brilliant.

I was on a Swedish multiplayer server earlier which had 250 players on at once...it was so chaotic I couldn't even see the track properly lol.

enjoy your StarForce crapware drivers

Wikipedia says the Steam version of TrackMania United doesnt have StarForce and TrackMania United's starforce wasnt a driver like the eariler TrackMania games but built in the executable to check the key. If its the same as 'Forever' then that doesnt sound that bad.

while I'm not exactly a huge starforce fan, I must say it's never actually caused me any problems on either P or Vista in the games I've played that use it (X3, TMU and TMN at least ). well outside of not being able to play TMN for a while after I switched to Vista at RTM. but that was due to TMN crappy implementation of SF, X3 had no such issues, and TMN was released at around that time and worked on Vista anyway.

I'm sure star force can cause problems in certain system configs, but so can a lot of other things, and I don't lke the way it patches itself into the system, but on xp I ran 64 and so I do on my primary vista computer, so they have kernel patch protection so it's a bit safer anyway.

wtf

you need Trackmania United for this to work? :s

no.

but certain features like buying cars with coppers through the built in system requires an online key froma TMgame I think.

but then you need to own another TM game for your custom car to be visible to other players online anyway.

You don't need TMUF for TMNF to work. TMNF is just a cut down version of TMUF. It only has one environment (Stadium, which is the best IMHO anyway), no online p2p (so no custom skins, avatars & horns), no coppers (in game currency) and a few other features. It's still a really good game though, especially since it's free.

Neither Trackmania United Forever or Trackmania Nations Forever has Starforce protection.

The old TM United and TM Nations both had Straforce Lite which as Doli said didn't install a driver but was just integrated into the executable. It was used in TM Nations to prevent cheats rather than prevent copying (since it was a free game anyway).

    • I always thought the moon gets a lot of impact because there’s no atmosphere, so surely building a moon base is only going to end in disaster?

    • Microsoft is bringing a much-needed Recap app to Teams, here is a first look by Usama Jawad Microsoft Teams is heavily used in work and school environments, and perhaps one of its core but extremely useful features is the ability to record meetings. In past years, Microsoft has further improved upon this functionality by integrating AI, but you do need a Microsoft 365 Copilot license to leverage most, if not all, all of those capabilities. Now, the Redmond tech firm is making another significant enhancement in the area of Teams meeting recordings. Up until now, if you wanted to access Teams recordings, you had to arduously locate the meeting invite and navigate to the dedicated tab, or go to the cloud storage location such as a SharePoint site. This was a rather overwhelming activity, especially if you don't remember the name of the meeting or the meeting occurred quite a while ago. Microsoft is now attempting to solve this problem through a dedicated Recap app that consolidates all your recordings. This centralized experience will allow users to find all recordings from the past 30 days and also offer access to other related services such as transcripts and AI-powered summaries. Customers will have the option to search for recordings, filter them, and review multiple meetings by generating AI-powered podcast-style recaps. The Recap app will list all available recordings in both thumbnail and list views. The former is shown below: And here is how Teams users with a Microsoft 365 Copilot license can select multiple recordings to generate a podcast-style audio recap: Microsoft has emphasized that the Recap app is pre-installed in Teams but it will not be pinned by default. Users will able to navigate to the Teams app store from the left rail, and pin it from the apps section. It will be enabled by default for all users once it becomes available. It's worth noting that while Teams recordings and transcripts can be accessed by all users governed by existing permissions, AI-powered features like intelligent summaries, audio recaps, and video recaps will require a Microsoft 365 Copilot license. The Recap app will be generally available to Teams users on Windows, Mac, and the web by the end of next month, with mobile support coming soon.
