ServerMania 0.96 for TrackMania Forever is there ! (By Cyrlaur on 19/04/2008 at 21:05)

Ok the new ServerMania for Trackmania Forever (TMUF & TMUF) is there, even it's not explicitly written in the title. It means that there is no more different edition so United and Classic Edition are gone, and also TMO, TMS, TMN (ESWC) and TMU are no longer supported.
Actually if you decide to upgrade to this new version it means you simply move to Forever and its new dedicated server (TrackmaniaServer_2008-04-18.zip). If you still want to run dedicated server for old TM games you'll have to look there for classic edition files (TMO/TMS/TMN) and there for TMU.
As said before it's all new, so you'll have to use the new Forever dedicated server and to start from scratch for server configuration as there is many new parameters in the new server config file, so delete any old server configuration and set a new one.
If you want to run a dedicated server for TMNF you'll have to create another account using the game and use it for your server and don't forget to set Packmask to 'Stadium' in server configuration.
Support of Forever is not all that this new version brings, for more details just see development section as usual.
Have an happy Forever hosting with ServerMania

Small fixing update (By Cyrlaur on 13/01/2008 at 17:03)
A small update this time mainly to fix an issue from last update.
Hopefully this could be the good one to wait for "TM Forever".

Ending year update (By Cyrlaur on 23/12/2007 at 15:44)
Here come an update for both ServerMania edition (0.89 CE/0.93 UE) before Forever edition of TMU & TMN comes out next year which should put an end to Classic Edition of ServerMania.
Whereas you can see all changes in development section as usual, just one word on this new feature : Ability to move a challenge (check) to any place in playlist by using "move to highlighted challenge" context menu command.
So how it works ? First step is to check in the list the challenge you want to move to another position in playlist. Then right click on where you want this challenge to be moved. This will highlight the line where your mouse is as well as display a context menu. Finally as shown on the picture above, just click on "Move to Highlighted challenge" so that your initially selected challenge will be moved just under the highlighted one.
And that's it, this the way I've implemented this frequently requested feature.
Notice that player list has a context menu (with right click) like the server challenge list one.
At last, I wish a merry christmas to all ServerMania users and even more to all of you reading this

ServerMania update and some more ... (By Cyrlaur on 21/03/2007 at 17:14)
Small update with some fixes and a few new features. You can look at full changelog in development section.
So this is version 0.92 (UE) for United and 0.88 (CE) for the others TrackMania. Unless big problems are discovered this should be the last update for Classic Edition.
United edition is now available to download directly on the website and the ManiaLink will be updated soon ... and by the way you should have seen that the website has been updated as well since few days
For the future I've still some new things I want to do but I want to take some time to make a little more documentation about ServerMania.
Finally don't forget, if you don't have already done it, to update your TrackMania United dedicated server to the last version (23-02-2007).
Notice that I now only give link of the official distributions of the dedicated servers.
