Here are all the compilations as track files.
You can do with it as you see fit.

I had already added the ZTC273 trick. Track looks amazing, btw.
I did my job. I have to carry it over now.

Wish you the best. Hope your community will open up even more.

Feel free to add them.

Might a reddit be a good place to advertize for your live event?

Like the retrogaming reddit

Looks supercool.

One last trick perhaps.

Few more tricks, just so you know, added them to the catalogue. I think this must be mostly done by now.

Like this one, it looks perfectly legit to me.

Yeah, this is smoother, that trick was around but didn't think of using it like this. I'll update the Wiki gradually.

Yeah, TrackMania is kind of retro now.
I watched YouTube videos of someone called Wirtual. Great stuff. Some of his vids have more than a million views.

I guess that if you could challenge a TrackMania player to beat some of your times, that may certainly get attention. Not sure where it would go from there...

A live event seems awesome. Could be streamed live of Twitch. Not sure it would get many views but I think it's cool anyhow, I mean, an old DOS game on a modern streaming platform. I like that. It's some else compared to viewing all those modern games. Perhaps then, people could subscribe to the Twitch Stunts Channel and they may get informed about the next live event. That may give some the opportunity to actually join the races.

Btw... could Stunts graphics be improved if there was some kind of software that would have as an input, all the pixels and their color of the Stunts screen while you're driving, it would register those like 24 times per second. And based on that, it would transform this into something that would look better, like the dark grey of asphalt would get a texture that would look more like real asphalt. The texture itself may not be in 3D. But perhaps that's no problem, the grid of the fence in Stunts, that texture always looks the same as well, no matter how far you're from the fence.

I wish I could somehow make Bliss more clearly display what's going on when you do illusion on tracks, but it's really hard. The elements look amazing while driving, though!

Oh man, Bliss is amazing stuff.
Truly, the work that must go in making things like that... pfew..

I don't know if I'm missing something when making tracks, cause I haven't figured everything out yet.

I mean, I can overlap track elements, I can copy paste a part of a track element when an overlapping track element took that part away. And that's everything I've done so far.

Yeah, that's cool. Makes me think that you could go off the roof of a tunnel straight into a cork. Never tried it.

Open to anyone to add things.
I just went through all the tracks that I had made.
If I could put tracks online somewhere, then people could just copy and paste... and try out these weird tracks.

Alright, updated the catalogue!

Lovely flow of those bridge esses in 28i.trk! @mrdries I think you'll enjoy driving on ZCT273 -- some of the combos are inspired by the catalogue 

Thanks!

Makes me so happy. Big chicane corners.

Well, here are some more, these may be the last for a while.
That last one is just a little bit silly too.

Yeah.

I think a World Stunts Championship would be really cool.
I don't think there's ever been held one?

I mean... it gives the opportunity to be crowned Stunts World Champion.
And the format that they use in Tetris, a duel, to get to the next round. Often, it's best of 3 games to get to the next round. Such a format is nice to follow for the viewer.

And if there's some advertising for a World Championship, it may attract some new people.
And if some Youtube Videos were made of the races, it may get some more attention for the year after.

Monthly races are awesome to keep Stunts going. But something like a World Championship is something that stands out for viewers. Something they may long for in advance. I know I've been longing for the Tetris World Championships, like counting down. Even though I could follow the monthly competitions on YouTube.

To be honest, I'd really hope such a thing would get done. I think it's super cool.
I'm always willing to help. It may not be too hard. Seems there's already the set up for multiplayer Stunts.
People can do the races online. That's what they did with NES Tetris too, during Covid.
