ESL is looking for YOUR maps for TM2! - ManiaActu - News for TrackMania, ShootMania, and QuestMania
Welcome on ManiaActu: ManiaPlanet Community & eSport News !

The TrackMania 2 section of ESL.eu wants to change their mappacks and is looking for help from the community!
Instead of using older (and maybe less liked) maps, they now want to use brand new maps.

Currently the following maps are being looked for:

  • Stadium Tech minis
  • Stadium Fullspeed maps
  • Canyon (Speed)tech maps

Stadium tech minis

  • name: "ESL-'name'" use what you want for "name"
  • no special signs in the name
  • length: 30-40 seconds
  • use of ESL Signs
  • the tracks are not uploaded anywhere
  • easily drivable map, maps with hard jumps will be ignored
  • Blockmixing is allowed, if it does not produce graphical glitches or driving bugs
  • use any mood you want, but watch out for shadows and dark paths
  • GPS can be there but not on the start block
  • intros and outros are forbidden
  • give it a delicate and nice outlook
  • the scenery is up to you (make sure it doesn't produce lags, lighting problems or graphical bugs!)
  • the tracks were not used in any competition before
  • the tracks are only known by yourself

Stadium Fullspeed maps

  • name: "ESL-'name'" use what you want for "name"
  • no special signs in the name
  • length: 30-40 seconds
  • use of ESL Signs
  • the tracks are not uploaded anywhere
  • using loops are NOT allowed, except if its placed right before the finish (1 block max)
  • we need easy maps, transition-based and too smooth tracks will be ignored
  • Blockmixing is allowed, if it does not produce graphical glitches or driving bugs
  • use any mood you want, but watch out for shadows and dark paths
  • GPS can be there but not on the start block
  • intros and outros are forbidden
  • give it a delicate and nice outlook
  • the scenery is up to you (make sure it doesn't produce lags, lighting problems or graphical bugs!)
  • the tracks were not used in any competition before
  • the tracks are only known by yourself

Canyon (Speed)tech maps

  • name: "ESL-'name'" use what you want for "name"
  • no special signs in the name
  • length: 40-55 seconds
  • use of ESL Signs
  • the tracks are not uploaded anywhere
  • the track should be easily finishable
  • Blockmixing is allowed, if it does not produce graphical glitches or driving bugs
  • GPS can be there but not on the start block
  • intros and outros are forbidden
  • give it a delicate and nice outlook
  • the scenery is up to you (make sure it doesn't produce lags, lighting problems or graphical bugs!)
  • the tracks were not used in any competition before
  • the tracks are only known by yourself

If you made one of those kind of maps, please don't hesitate to send it in to the ESL staff by mailing it to: eu.tm2.maps@staff.esl.eu! Make sure you use this format ("Maps - *game&mapstyle* - *your nickname*"), otherwise your entry might be missed. The ESL Signs can be downloaded via the ESL announcement.
