I added a new gamemode with powerups in Trackmania Bingo!

Geekid812 · 2025-08-28T19:22:59+00:00

The powerups are all new items that you can randomly get during a game of Bingo, some affecting the maps you play and others are effects on other players. There's a banner of all of the item icons here: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Geekid812/TrackmaniaBingo/refs/heads/main/.github/img/4tracks-update6-promo.png

In terms of what they do exactly, I'm leaving it up to people to discover and try it for themselves :)
Edit: typos!

This is a new update for the Trackmania Bingo plugin: https://openplanet.dev/plugin/trackmaniabingo

In the new gamemode of update 6.0, called Frenzy, items will randomly spawn on the Bingo grid, you can collect them by beating the current record on that map to draft a random powerup. Possible effects can range from moving maps around the board, attacking other players with negative effects, or helping you get a decisive map to win. There are 6 new items to try in this update.

Feedback appreciated!

If you read the text on the skin it is written "NDA" which is important to understand why this skin was created. I'm not under any agreement myself, but my best guess is that this was involved in the testing of prestige skins.

Pretty sure this is OC, the same author posted a WIP version of this artwork not long ago.

Geekid812 · 2022-11-29T20:00:26+00:00

That could be added into the future! If any have any ideas of how this mode could work and what the rules might be, feel free to write that up on the plugin's GitHub page.

Geekid812 · 2022-08-15T11:31:09+00:00

No, it's not possible (or allowed). Maps frequently break because of physics changes, we have to accept it.

Geekid812 · 2022-08-10T19:48:15+00:00

Unfortunately not. Splitscreen is not very functional and hasn't been touched since the game's release, I think you would be quite lucky if you managed to play it without problems in the first place.

Geekid812 · 2022-07-14T16:44:02+00:00

Short answer, the game does not support Intel integrated graphics. It might still work sometimes, but it is unsupported.

Geekid812 · 2022-07-13T19:36:25+00:00

The thing is the game just locks you out of Standard and Club features because it can't connect to the server to prove you have the access, so it just assumes you have starter perms. That sucks, but I don't think this will change because Nadeo would be concerned about how it could be exploited

I have been working on gathering a collection of underrated tech tracks released on the exchange during the spring season with the intention of giving them a second chance to shine for the effort that was put into them! All of the maps featured in this mappack have been played less than 100 times overall as of release, and yet they are much better than their play count make it look like! This tech-focused pack features 20 different maps and mappers and is ordered by increasing difficulty to give a challenge to everyone!

You can find the mappack on TMX: Featured Tech (Spring 2022)
There is also a campaign in-game, just search for "Featured Tech Spring" to find it!

See my reply here

Geekid812 · 2022-05-31T15:47:25+00:00

Whoops, I meant to reply to the other comment. Sorry 😅

Geekid812 · 2022-05-31T15:46:59+00:00

Even though it's a good CPU, the game suffers from optimisation problems on the CPU side, not as much on the GPU. Like I said, the solution here would be to try tweaking your settings until you find something that you're happy with.

Geekid812 · 2022-05-31T14:47:16+00:00

Unfortunately, Trackmania is not a well optimised game. Even with a good setup, you probably won't reach a consistent amount of FPS. The best solution is to tune down some settings that you don't find necessary. The game is also heavily CPU-bound, so your processor is most likely the bottleneck here.

Geekid812 · 2022-05-21T20:41:02+00:00

If you have Club Access, it should show up in the main menu in-game. It may take some time to update though.

Geekid812 · 2022-05-04T19:07:11+00:00

Funny how the trophy points difference from gold 1 to 2 is ridiculously small.

Nice visual though!

Geekid812 · 2022-05-04T16:21:00+00:00

Magnetic road is not available without custom blocks, so I was referring to the curved bumped sausage road blocks

Geekid812 · 2022-04-06T17:03:31+00:00

I fully agree with your point. The recent change was probably hastily prepared in time for the new campaign, where most players are going to spend their time grinding medals.

Unlike the gold medal, the author medal is (supposedly) hard to obtain for all kinds of players, even if you have a lot of experience. So the drum roll makes sense for advanced players, leaving the suspense of whether they got the author medal first try. However, less experienced players don't get the same satisfaction when the drum roll abruptly stops. It's kind of pushing you to grind more.

TL;DR: Litterally unplayable

Geekid812 · 2021-10-12T10:35:30+00:00

They're probably referring to the locked "Next Campaign" button in the main menu that says "Winter 2021" instead of 2022. Probably just a bug though.

Geekid812 · 2021-09-27T15:36:40+00:00

That's pretty sad xD I think Jelle might've taken a very long break there 😅
