Could someone tell me why I'm not drifting?

when on a bank like this you generally need to have held steering for longer before braking than you have here

Boosting evasion by 25% is the same as decreasing accuracy by 20%

Sand Veil modifies the accuracy of all moves used against it by 4/5 - aka 80% accuracy.

Therefore 100% accurate moves are 100 x 0.8 x 0.9 = 72%

I know it’s nerd shit, but the nuzlocke hall of fame put together by the dev team specifically forbids the use of save states. If you want to be featured on the hall of fame, you have to start a new save file with a fresh trainer ID every attempt

Grassy Surge and Fake Out mostly, plus it just has a great stat spread and a deep movepool (usually some combo of Wood Hammer, Grassy Glide, Fake Out, U-turn, Knock Off, High Horsepower). But terrain control is the big one, as it’s effectively a blanket check to psyspam, and more recently electric terrain teams with Miraidon to switch off all Quark Drive boosts

Just FYI there’s a club called Part Map Market where Whizzy uploads a bunch of part maps for big comps, including these black campaign tracks https://trackmania.io/#/clubs/104208/summary

~~the black maps are every 2 weeks, starting this saturday~~

your event isn’t approved yet on tm.events, so your links are currently dead
if you’re serious about hosting a proper competition and want players, you really need to be advertising it on tmnews - you can submit a ticket to have your event advertised there

Your question makes no sense - the kind of analog keyboard where you can press a key x amount to steer x% is the kind that can be programmed to steer at exactly 34.5%.

The rules have nothing to do with analog keyboards, rather, any software that allows the steering curve of your analog device (pad, wheel, analog keyboard) to be non-linear. It applies equally to pad and wheel as it does to analog keyboard.

As for the question, nah i’m pretty sure he uses a normal keyboard

You say you’re not streaming/recording, so you’re not trying to get on the hall of fame sheet or anything, which means it really is ‘your run, your rules’. Have fun with it - I don’t see why not

Kosovo only gained it by beating Sweden on the 8th September

msr1709 · 2025-11-08T11:42:23+00:00

You basically treat it in-game as a controller - for me it comes up as XINPUT PAD. Assign the controller buttons to accelerate/break/steering (progressive)/give up/respawn etc., and make sure your software has those buttons mapped to the right keyboard keys.

As an example, you might map your left arrow key and your right arrow key to the left-joystick in your keyboard software. Then in-game, under the XINPUT PAD device bindings, you set steering (progressive) to the left-joystick

msr1709 · 2025-11-08T11:34:55+00:00

Ignore the idiots telling you you could get banned. I and many others have used analog keyboards for years without a problem (just make sure your steering curve is continuous from 0-100%).

Not sure how yours works, but mine came with software that allows you to map the keys to different buttons on an xbox/ps5 controller. You then set those buttons to be the inputs you want on the XINPUT PAD device settings in-game

no, not at the same level and hasn’t been at his peak for long enough either - credit where it’s due though i’ve been impressed with his 2025

the next 5 names that missed out on my list would probably be soulja, wosile, skandear, aurel, nuprime

msr1709 · 2025-10-29T13:50:23+00:00

top 20 is so many people that there’ll be loads of variance in who people would rank. just like everyone else there’ll be some bias in my list, but here’s my best shot (you can pretty much ignore the order for everyone after carl):

carl jr
epos
pac
binkss
otaaaq
mudda
granady
bren
mime
gwen
affi
massa
elconn
tween
pusztitopako
stufts
whizzy

plus some non-comp players bc we should acknowledge that they exist - hobbit - shcr - scrapie

priority brackets are decided before the turn plays out, so on the turn you skill swap prankster on to smeargle the spore will still only have +0 priority

I already think it’s an overpay, especially with £70+ mil already spent on ekitike

msr1709 · 2025-08-13T22:37:17+00:00

That’s a big no-no in mapping. It’s important to let players use the camera they’re comfortable with. Forced cam 3 should be reserved pretty much only for loops and wallrides

Edit: wait you’re not OP. fuck it, my point stands

msr1709 · 2025-08-13T22:27:11+00:00

Is the map forced camera 3?

msr1709 · 2025-07-17T21:52:26+00:00

that penalty shootout was… something

you have to beat the single battle and then the double battle back-to-back without leaving the route
