TrackMania Sunrise

From TM Wiki

(Redirected from Sunrise)

TrackMania Sunrise is the second TrackMania game. Compared to TrackMania Original, the graphic details are much better, and car sizes are equivalent to block sizes. Nadeo said this game was designed for sensations. Indeed, you can drive at a ridiculous speed, about 1000kph.

The second game in the series, TrackMania Sunrise, features three environments: Island, Bay, and Coast, again each with its unique car to fit the environment's characteristics. Island features very fast sports cars which can make very sharp turns on mostly wide roads. Bay features very bouncy cars with less traction, making accidental oversteering more prone to happen. Coast features relatively slow cars on small roads. Due to very little traction, Coast cars can be used for drifting through corners. The game was built on an overhauled engine for better visuals and internet connectivity. The tracks can now include panels with skinable billboards. The game also features two new gameplay modes:

Platform gives you a start point, a finish point, and mandatory checkpoints / restart points between; your task is to finish the race, restarting as few times as possible.

Crazy returns to the race course, but this time pits you against a few ghosts.

TrackMania Sunrise has further additions over the original, some of which were later added in the Original edition of the original game. The player can import new car models and customize many more aspects of the game. The game features improved internet connectivity with a peer-to-peer system that allows players to share their car model, car skin, and more. The new track editor uses the mouse primarily, as opposed to the keyboard-driven original, and makes special effects like displaying text and changing the camera possible using Mediatracker.

Trackmania Sunrise Extreme

Recently an expansion pack called eXtreme was released.[Download] The game was also repackaged as TrackMania Sunrise eXtreme. The pack adds multiple pieces to enhance the speed and stuntiness of the game. A new mode, Stunt mode, has been added, where the player has to obtain points by doing stunts, such as spinning the car around in mid air and doing flips. After a set amount of time has expired, earned points are quickly drained, so the player should try to finish with the best score, and before time expires.

Available from November, 2005, it is the marketed version which can easily be found at present. It includes the very last evolutions of the rendering engine. Nadeo also added a pack of new blocks, called extreme blocks, which are renowned to be really twisted and hard to drive. The game principle hasn't been fundamentally changed. A new game mode has also appeared in Solo and Multi : Stunt. At last, the ManiaStars system has been added in order to recognize renowned and appreciated community members, independently of the Ladder

TrackMania Sunrise (version 1.4)

Very first published version from Nadeo. It was built on the basis of TrackMania Speed-Up. Compared to this version, Nadeo added moods which allow to have different atmospheres : sunrise, day, sunset and night. With the exception of the Night mood, these moods have been inserted into TrackMania Original.

Today, this version is obsolete. It does not allow online play any more.

Demo version

Several demo versions had been distributed. The only one which is still usable is the last one. It shows TrackMania Sunrise Extreme features. There is a restriction of the amount of blocks which can be used to build a track and so the game is limited: you can play online but only on demo tracks and tracks made with the demo version.
