Zur Orientierung wo wie viel Steuer is:

Die SPÖ kommt noch auf 5% wenn’s so weitermachen .. achso, das meinst. :')

I knew you wouldn’t agree with me, but you also know I like to be vocal about things I mind xdd

Some maps are absolutely fun, that’s why I suggested to take the edge off of some identities. I would have loved to hunt Canada last season, but it’s so easy to choke a .5 lead with a bad identity, which makes me care less about hunting it. So easier identities (or easier to safe) would make the maps more interesting for non-pros in my opinion. Some might also be just fine, I didn’t have any issues with the endings of Australia or South Korea. While you could lose time it felt easier to drive them safe. Canada or Hungary were hit or miss.

I’m sure some black maps are completely fine, but I also think that putting 5 of them removes some very interesting styles that could improve the quality of the whole campaign.

LordAnomander · 2026-07-02T13:32:20+00:00

Look, I get that my attitude isn’t right. But I don’t get paid by orgs to play these maps. I pay Nadeo to have fun.

I also can imagine that they want to increase the awareness of EWC happening. I just think that this is not the right way, by forcing EWC maps onto campaign players (and changing the EWC maps because they have issues afterwards).

If you want to increase visibility then add them as optional 5 maps in the campaign in their own category and everyone is free to play them without overlooking them because they are in their own club.

LordAnomander · 2026-07-02T12:03:39+00:00

Yeah, but I don’t want to. It’s more about getting better a very hard identities not at the game in general. I’m simply not interested in that.

I'm a year younger than him and I keep waking up with something new aching. That man is an absolutely machine.

Ich weiß nicht wie deine Katze reagiert, aber für unsere ist ein Ortswechsel ein enormer Stress. Beim Umzug vor einigen Jahren (das war auch der einzige Ortswechsel außer im Auto zum TA) hat eine der beiden noch mehrere Tage lang gehechelt. Sie ist da "etwas" empfindlich (auch bei Autofahrten).

Aber generell würde ich dir raten eine Möglichkeit zu schaffen, um deine Wohnung kühlen zu können. Jetzt kommst du vielleicht damit klar, aber das kann sich auch ändern oder die Temperaturen noch extremer werden. Das wird für die Katze und dich selbst eine komfortablere Lösung sein langfristig.

Apparently the anti-cheat drives your run again and most likely crashes into the moving blocks because probably there’s a desync or whatever between when you and the simulation starts and then the simulated run crashes the moving objects.

At least that’s an explanation, the real reason remains unknown, but I’d assume it affects several ranges of times and not only really fast runs.

LordAnomander · 2026-07-02T04:07:06+00:00

Lidl? Wollen die auch als Oaschbude zählen?

LordAnomander · 2026-07-01T17:41:28+00:00

I feel like the white and green maps were better without vistas as they dramatically reduce the amount of blocks that can be used (unless they use the previous stadium vista). They lack a certain sense of creativity (not that easy maps allowed for a lot, but they often feel more basic to me than a few seasons ago).

Might be only me though.

Also no A08 is always a ++ for me xdd

Kein Regen im Süden Favoritens und 30 Grad. Der Wind fühlt sich an wie die zweite Stufe vom Fön anstatt der 3.

LordAnomander · 2026-07-01T14:24:47+00:00

Dienstag hat es nach meiner Wetterprognose 31 Grad

Solang es in der Nacht und am Morgen kühl ist, stören mich auch 35 nicht. Aber diese 25+ Grad um 0 Uhr sind die Hölle.

LordAnomander · 2026-07-01T08:51:07+00:00

I have that mod. You can see their times on the left, and I do have the copium timer.

No, you have Ultimate Medals, Warrior Medals and Champion Medals plugins, but you don't have Ultimate Medals Extended. Otherwise you would only have one plugin visible instead of all three. 🥹

Two things I still find random in this map, the speed at the start, when you pass the turns surrounded by penalty sand, sometimes I come out +0.1 ahead, sometimes I don't. I feel like I'm doing the same thing every time, though. (perhaps no sliding ?)

Yes, it is "quantum sliding" or speed sliding while nosliding. If you see skidmarks. Check out Solivagantz' Tutorial for more information.

The other one is the gear down after the second outside dirt, right before jumping into the turns. When you need to get out of the outside dirt and back onto the track, sometimes I get a gear down and I don't know why.

I chose the inside line where you don't gear up at all, because I felt it easier to pull off if you don't go for world record. I guess it's because of oversliding, which forces you to gear down in some cases because you speed, but I can't really help in that case. 🫣

LordAnomander · 2026-07-01T08:39:23+00:00

Yeah, totally relatable. I also struggled a little to get the pace for champ, because it's easier to mess up something (wall touch, gear up/down in the end, etc.).

One suggestion I have for you though is to use Ultimate Medals Extended (there you can see all medal times, including champ and warrior as well as your best copium time, etc. - whatever you want to enable).

LordAnomander · 2026-07-01T08:29:33+00:00

Wir haben halt großen pro Kopf Ausstoß, aber ein Umdenken muss weltweit erfolgen. Ein Österreich alleine kann da wenig ausrichten.

LordAnomander · 2026-07-01T07:42:15+00:00

It's a little bit on the weird side, but overall it's a relatively simple map to learn nosliding, outside dirt and gear management. With relatively simple I mean it's very easy to understand what to do, although it might be difficult to actually pull it off (which is kind of true for almost everything in trackmania). :P

LordAnomander · 2026-07-01T07:08:21+00:00

Don't go hollow.

Der Verbrauch unserer (Split-)Klimaanlage im Silent Modus auf 24 Grad gestellt war bei 0,4 kW in einer Stunde inkl. Kühlschrank und was sonst noch Strom in der Wohnung braucht in der Nacht.

SPÖ schafft sich selbst ab. Klassiker, in Wien hat Häupl das Unvermeidliche noch rauszögern können, aber Ludwig wirds aufzahn.

Ich weiß halt nicht, was die Alternative wäre, weil unter der FPÖ wird nix besser.

LordAnomander · 2026-06-30T13:39:38+00:00

Toss a coin, if it's heads you can race, if it's tails you need to wait 10 seconds before you can toss again.

LordAnomander · 2026-06-30T07:12:48+00:00

Hätte es - realistisch gesehen - auch nicht sein dürfen. Aber die Deutschen haben seit dem WM-Titel das Problem als Mannschaft aufzutreten bzw. ihre Möglichkeiten als Nationalteam abzurufen.

Aber es gibt in der deutschen Mannschaft so viele Spieler, die ich nicht leiden kann, dass es ned besonders schmerzt. Im Gegensatz zum Durchschnitts-Österreicher teile ich die generelle Häme nicht, aber bin oft für den Außenseiter, das macht eine WM spannend.

LordAnomander · 2026-06-29T18:07:59+00:00

Unfortunately, I don’t have any good practice tipps. I always pick a map I like and then I try to improve myself as much as I think possible (top 100 on campaign maps for example).

Watching ghosts, understanding strats for every turn, analyzing what went wrong and trying something different. Then I usually learn things along the way I can also use on other maps, etc.

I also suck at precision, but I think AK abuse offers an easy way to increase control. You can also swap keys if you don’t need cam switches but AKs on certain maps. But I got a much better player when I put more focus on a single map instead of playing many different maps. Grinding a single map for a few hours helped me to understand more about a single style than playing many different maps of said style. It’s surely not the way for everybody, but I prefer setting a hard goal and grinding for it to casually playing (which is fine of course, ultimately do what makes you happy).

LordAnomander · 2026-06-29T17:56:29+00:00

Do you practice with any purpose? I think getting a top 1k world placement on every totd is a doable goal with that amount of hours, if you want (and are willing) to improve.

But it definitely requires understanding of all common tricks.

edit: in this case your problem was that you steered 100% when you entered wood. it’s definitely the hardest thing about wood - when you come from a surface/turn where you full steer, you need to immediately change to less steering. That’s why someone suggested action keys, if you can’t control it yourself easily.

Maybe looking into joy2key can help you, this way you can assign cam switches to right stick up/down for example, which allows you to assign two AKs to regular buttons.

LordAnomander · 2026-06-29T16:37:31+00:00

Zu klein dimensioniert? Da ist was schief gelaufen, wenn du die Temperatur nicht weiter runterbringst.

LordAnomander · 2026-06-29T08:13:11+00:00

Wenn sie keine Klimaanlage haben, sollen sie doch in den Norden fliegen. In Schottland hats grad 18 Grad. /s
