ShootMania is in a public beta and the ShootMania Exchange is now available!

Head over there now and start uploading your ShootMania maps!

You may also wish to get accustomed with using the Portal drop down menu at the top of all MX sites.

ManiaExchange

The ManiaPlanet 2.0 beta update is now available. The game will prompt you to download when you connect.

For more information, view the ManiaPlanet forum thread here.

Mania Exchange
This site now supports the new version of ManiaPlanet and TrackMania 2 Canyon.

PlayPal Online is a game server where the tracks of those playing on the server make up the playlist. It works by giving you karma for each track you finish, and when you have the most karma, your track is next to be played.

You can select which of your tracks to include on the PlayPal Online Page.

The link to the server is also on that page

If you have further questions, visit the PlayPal Online Forum.



One final thing, records set on the PPO server also get sent back to ManiaExchange where they are shown on track pages, you will therefore see a new PPO Records window for each track.

Note: The server controller may crash a littile bit, we will try and restart it when we notice. Stability should improve over the coming days.

The MX Weekly Knock Out will be played this weekend !
But this will be the Last KO for a few weeks. Returning on 28th July

Start Times are 9:30 GMT and 20:00 GMT

During the break why not make some more tracks. That is if your not too busy playing shootmania.
And for those that really need a KO fix, Check the United TMX site for some informal KO's during the break.

The ShootMania Storm Beta will begin soon. It's a closed beta, but with an open registration.

Be sure to register on ShootMania.com before July 2nd if you want to be a part of it!

We also played a 2nd KO after the 20:00 one.
We started with 5 players. 3 got KO'd for DNF. 2 were afk. 1 couldn't find the route. So finals were myself vs OldBard (a long time player of the KOs since they started in 2010 in TMUF). The last turn was dark and sharp. I flew into the water and OldBard took the win. Congrats to him!

You can now add your favourite authors to a list and keep track of their latest tracks!

How to use it?

1. Adding someone to your list.
Go to someone's user profile by clicking the little person icon to the left of their name.
On their profile page you will see a link:
Favourite: Add to favourite authors
Click the link and wait for the page to refresh.

2. Checking tracks by your favourite authors.
Hover over "Find Tracks" on the menu at the top of any page.
