Note: lag does affect you in TrackMania. If you crash into something, it's the track, not your the opponents. You could play on 500 ping servers, if you wish, and you can still win.
I have to agree CoD, I never have any problem finding a smooth server, I don't even look at ping anymore.
I forgot to mention to all the newcomers... are you bored with your car yet? Probably. Head to this awesome site called knutselmaaster, it's full of great skins for your car. They were designed for TMN, but they all work fine in TMNF. Just find the car that you want, right click the image, and save it to...
Now before you hit save, you MUST delete one of the other skins first. For example, delete BEL.zip (assuming you aren't Belgian, and wont need that car), then save the new car skin as BEL.zip. When you next load up the game, go to your profile and in the vehicle section you will find a sexy car sitting in place of the unneeded Belgium car. Not very user friendly I know, but what do you expect from a free game.
@Machu..... my username is crossed23 and thanx for the skins, Ill be doing that tonight. I also found out the hard way that logging into your account on a different computer doesnt grant you all your medals youve earned, had to start over as I didnt feel like transfering save files. Man the game looks really good running on its highest settings. Great game.

@slapshot: Tell me about it dude. I rebuilt the PC, and never kept the save file, I have done that twice now. D: It keeps your online ranking, but all the medals vanish. I'm currently hammering through all the challenges again. I'll add you while I'm there, see you on the track.
I tried to add a skin but the site wouldn't work well at all on my computer. Im pretty cool woth using the USA car though as Im not too worried about adding a Skin though it does look really cool.

LOL.... I think Im like 600th in my State right now so that is kinda cool, but I got a long way to go to get in the top of the US. I think Im at like 52 medals now. Oh, I got a fourth Medal on one track, apparently you can get a medal that is higher than the Gold. Im sure you knew that though, I was just a little shocked when it popped up.

Nadeo medals, created by the tracks author, basically a staff ghost. Well done for beating one of them. At some point you will unlock the Nadeo Ghosts on all tracks and can go back to attempt them all if you are mad. Another tip, when you do start racing online stick to servers with Nadeo tracks (A2, B4, etc), it's best to start with tracks you know, plus if you manage to improve your medal time, it will update it next time you play solo. You can get quite a few Nadeo medals whilst racing online.
Aight, I got you. Yeah I was pretty stoked about getting the first one and on a few tracks I seriously thought that I had gotten another by slaughtering the Gold time but still didn't so they have got to be seriously hard. Heck, some tracks I cant touch the Gold yet!

Sweet dude. I hope the install is problem free. One question. I already invited Terranigma a couple of days ago, I assume that wasn't you, or was it? I'm confused. :/
@ Nintendude: Once you've uploaded the screenshot. Take the URL of that image, and place it in between these...
[ img ] insert url here [ /img ] but without any spaces obv
If you aren't sure, quote my previous post, the one with the pic in, and all shall become clear. Sorry I had to stop racing btw I was doin' good too, that server was full of elite dudes and I was grabbin' loads of points.
I downloaded this about a year ago before I got the DS version. I have Linux so I ran it through wine.... if anyone was curious it works fine through wine even if it does run a bit slow (about 15fps but I don't know how much of the slow was my old computer but still, my lower spec windows laptop got 5fps on the same settings).
The DS version isn't anywhere near as good. Its fun with local multi but there is no online mode and the single player mode, while fun, good looking and generally smooth, is sometimes a bit glitchy. There were a few times when my car fell through the track. I have high hopes for the Wii version.
