NADEO just released their new ManiaPlanet update with a lot of little interesting things! Unfortunately, TrackMania users will have to wait a bit more and stay patient about the awesomeness to come, since this patch is mostly about ShootMania inprovement. 3D models, new blocks, some bug fixes and dynamic objects creations.

Message from Hylis :

"Hello everyone,
A new update is now available for (mainly) ShootMania Storm! One of the noticeable additions is the Arrow platform, where you can use the Arrow weapon which was featured in the Combo title pack. You are now able to add this weapon to all your maps, new and old."

The main changes are :

• ShootMania: The Arrow platform is now available for all modes (block 1-8-6)
• ShootMania: Imports characters skins (3D Models)
• ShootMania: Create item & dynamic objects
• ShootMania: New features for the scripts
• ShootMania: More bots controls
• ShootMania: New items / objects api and features.
• ShootMania: Mousewheel to change actions / weapons
• ShootMania: New Storm blocks
• Stadium: Stadium blocks adjustments for upcoming blocks
• Editor: Improved underground edition mode
• MediaTracker: Record ghost from the MT

So what to expect?

This update that seems not "THE" update that everyone is waiting for, still brings some real interesting features that had to change, like the mousewheel in Combo mode for a easy weapons switch. The 3D models import feature is also one of the greatet things here, since you will be able, for example, to create some custom bots for your Titles and Gamemode creations.

The new Arrow Platform block

About new blocks, only ShootMania will get something new today, with the Arrow block that everyone expected! This block may change a lot of things, if mappers manage to handle it for their maps! We can not wait to see the Arrow weapon on competitive Elite games, or some crazy public royal maps!

So let's play!

So now that you know everything, just launch your game, update it, and have fun! We would like to thanks NADEO for bringing all these amazing features, and to make all this come true! Keep up the good work...
