View Full Version : Trackmania Nations Forever (FREE ON STEAM)
Yep, it's free on steam now, it comes with multiplayer and solo options to your use. I realize this is only for physics games, and yes, it has car physics, gravity friction etc. etc., so don't flame me please. You must have a Steam account and the application to download it, if you get the Steam news pages then you already know about it. Have fun.
E: I had a....bad first experience, I cranked all my settings up to max; knowing my overclocked 8800 GT could easily handle it right? Well, it lags like crazy most the time, I'm not sure if it was that I had 50 other online cars around me or I think something is wrong, because then...EXTREMELY ANNOYING...it sets my resolution down to the lowest possible....makes it look hitious, and I just say "F*** it". I'll work on fixing it later.

I've had the original Trackmania since I was eleven, and I also have Trackmania Sunrise (best racing game evah, no exceptions).
Has Physics?
Try looking at my first, main post.

Haha easy game to beat. Especially coming from someone who is a diehard fan of vehicle racing. I am currently ranked 1st in my State, 23rd in the US, and like 70th in the world. But that was an hour ago, probably gone by now.
Was that online, or not? Because I'm going to guess you didn't rank that high online. There are only about 1,200 people on single mode and about 300,000+ on net mode. It's pretty easy to beat on single, most definitly not in multi.

I think Forever has more features and levels, since it's an updated version.
@ Jaybud, They're both free. xD Forever is just updated with better features.

How can you be 23rd in the US but 70th in the world? I'm 9th in the US and only 369th in the world.
BTW, we should post our logins so we can add each other to our buddy lists and play together.

We ain't talking about no Steam name. We talkin' about the account you make when you play the game.

I'm going to be Odellus in a minute. Couldn't download form Steam because I can't click Purchase, Install Now, or any form of link to another page in Steam. Ten minutes until it's done from FileFront. Yay 700 kb/s+ internet.

This is great! I've been wanting to play this, but I don't like racing games enough to actually buy one. (Exceptions: Carmageddon, WipeOut)

Well, let's just leave it at this. My username is ALWAYS Maltor124. If you ever see a Maltor124, there is a 99.99% chance it's me. Just for future reference. ^_^
And just so you know, my TNF name is Maltor124, too.
Aahhghg I love this game, I want United dammit.

Why? It actually seems like a great value. It has 7 environments, tons more singleplayer stuff, and more online things. I'm thinking about getting it. They can't release every game for free. There being generous for releasing part of the game for free, stop complaining.

United 4ever will most likely be released for free when the sequal to both comes out (IF there is a sequal).

I used to play sunrise till I lost my Key for the game. I would make like hundreds of cars with the crazy car challenge. Like in this video:

SAME. PROBLEM. If you PM me your email address I can forward the email report I got from steam giving me the problem and how to fix it.

They made the complete impression of the entire game free.

So, like, I'm #5 in the entire country. And like 270th in the world. What rank is everyone else?
Oh, and I had to get it from FileFront also. I could click on Install Now, but that window that pops up asking if you have Steam installed doesn't work. I can't click either of the two buttons.
Now I'm certian none of the ranks you're posting are online. Go play online for pete's sake!

Solo is where teh skill is at. I even got a few Author's Medals, which apparently means you did faster than the guy who made the level. <_<
Plus online is a lagfest for me.

Am i the only one that thinks the origional nations is better?
TM: Nations Forever is terrible imo. I can't find a single server that has less than 100 people in it, doesn't lag like shit, and has some maps I've grown to associate TM with. Not just some boring run-of-the-mill tracks.
whatever, at least I didn't have to pay for it. brb, goin to play TM: Nations.

Is it not working for anyone else? I downloaded and installed it, then when I tried to launch it, the launch window came up, then once I clicked play, a window came up with TM Forever in the title thing, but the actual window is just black.

Yeah I go online, but those aren't my online ranks. Well I lied, I haven't had the time to go online with TMNF, but I used to go online with TMN. I was moderatly good. I mostly played on the French servers and always finished in 10th out of 30 something people.

ps:this game looks nice....

@ ed Yea, I play on the french servers nadeo set up. There's usually around 200 people in them. I almost always finish somewhere from 15-55 place. xD Upper fourth is good in my book. :P

Wow. There's a buttload of more people now. D: Instead of my rank being around 250th worldwide, I am now 27,460th.
xD Thats why i was like, Either you people have way to much time on your hands, or I suck. xD

I just found this place (http://trackmania-carpark.com/index.php) where you can download awesome skins and models for TMNF.
Once you download the ZIP file, DON'T UNZIP IT! Instead place the ZIP file in the following directory:
My documents\TrackMania\Skins\Vehicles\Carcommon (if the folder doesn't exist, create it)
Then go into your profile ingame, go to vehicles, and select the car. Then go back an race with it.
Voila. New cars for everyone.
