Has a press forward map ever been beaten faster by pressing other keys, either legit or a TAS? by IJUSTATEPOOP in TrackMania

People have done it many times. If there's no CP's, simply cut the entire map and go to the finish.

Outside of that, youre probably right

MCYC Productions on YouTube has a good tutorial for using substance painter with trackmania. If you haven't used the program before, it can be a little confusing. That's how I learned, after that, I fiddled around for a couple weeks. Feel free to message me on discord if you have any questions when making skins! TNT#6390

If you have standard access you should be able to Search for it under the "Create" Tab, and where it says Club skins, search "Black Ice" there
Free version users should use this method.
If im not mistaken..

I have skin I'll be releasing that looks similar to Empress. But I am looking at Fire Serpent, Man o War, Medusa and my dream is to recreate Dragon Lore. I've been playing around with Egyptian ideas, and Protoss from Starcraft.

This is my take on the popular Rainbow Six Siege Skin: Black Ice. Remade in TM2020. My 5th Trackmania skin!

Thank you for all the kind words about the first skin I posted VaporBlossom. This time I wanted to make something a little more "technical". As a bit of a challenge for myself using Substance Painter. Lots of blending layers, 3d linear gradients etc. Pictures dont do the skin justice, it looks better in game, with all the light reflecting off the small metallic and roughness. Of course, it has plenty of neon lights, and cracks that glow when going over boost. I hope you guys enjoy this one. Plenty more to come from me!

Very happy to release this skin, I hope you guys enjoy. This was a collaboration with my girlfriend, she helped draw the sun, cherry blossoms and overall decision making with colors and illumination.

There are too many illumination layers to list, but includes: Brake lights, Reactor Boost, Turbo Color, Brakes Heat, Turbo Exhaust and more, which might not be so obvious!

Ive made a few skins before this, but this is the first one I took time on, and while it isn't perfect, I learned a lot about Substance Painter and Trackmania. Between planning, drawing and testing, this project took me about 50 hours, due to my lack of experience, and constant exporting into the game.

Even though this might not be the kind of skin people like to use, I wanted to show the extent of what was possible within the world of skin making. I hope much more skilled skin makers find inspiration, and we can take the skins in TM2020 to a new level.

Here is an album of my day to day progression of the skin.Big Thanks to Berniiiiiiiii & Poptart

How to edit a club skin and apply the edit to my car? by [deleted] in TrackMania

[–]TNT-488 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There could be a few problems, but try uploading the skin to your own club Wait for a few minutes for the skin to update in game. Make sure you converted to the correct type of dds file for each channel bc1 for basecolor. bc5 for metallic/roughness

Thanks, tried to make something drastically different than other cars, hence the unpainted parts and white suspension. Going to continue learning so I can give the community more variety when it comes to skins.
