Trackmania 2 Canyon Forum

Upon launching the game there is just a window with a white screen. Does anyone know if there is a way to resolve this?

Also, does anyone know why this game doesn't seem to work despite the fact that the other Trackmania games do? Is there a big difference between them?

Thanks!

Edit: I was able to get the game to launch using windowed mode, however it now crashes after selecting a profile and trying to start the game. I think that this may have to do with the graphics, but there are a ton of compatibility options and I don't know which ones to change.

Hi...

..to expound a bit upon your first observation...ie; are there any
differences between the game version, I'll attest to a 'yes' there.
TMNF for example, always goes thru the video benchmark stuff at
startup - TMUF however does not. That's in linux. In OSX, TMNF is
a tad quirky, but it runs on -most-, not all, Macs ; here on my 11,2
iMac with hd5670, TMUF runs much better/more stably than TMNF...

....right, so I've been meaning to buy this, and I have, but upon
installing I can't get it past the create new account/enter registration
key business ... tmNF/TMUF didn't give me the hassle, so I don't
know what's going on...yet... I'll post back later...

Cheers!

Update:

...confirming what you say ; in MacOS it whitescreens in fullscreen
mode ; windowed mode seems the only option there. This is an OSX
issue, as the same 11,2 iMac running debian6 didn't have this problem...

...it sounds like you're at the same impasse I've found. You can get
a bit further, by installing 'Microsoft HTML Rendering Engine 7' into
the same bottle, and then set a winelib override for wininet=native
in the Wine Configuration GUI. All things being equal, that should
get you past the crashing, and up to the point where instead it sits
there for some small time, before returning the error message 'Connection
Failed' ; hitting 'retry' allow you to go through the routine again,
but it will just keep failing with the same error...

...the good news is, I just tested it with wine-1.3.37 and it's working
fine there - I could register/activate it, it downloaded updates etc,
and the game itself runs as good as the other TrackMania titles, so hopefully
all this goodness will roll into crossover-11 and we can expect it to
start working here as well...

Cheers!

That would be excellent. I hope it works out.

Hello,
first: sorry for my bad english!

second: My Mac (early2008), with HD5770, have a white screen by launching the game.
I have Wine 1.4.1, HTML Rendering 7, OpenAL and TM2 Canyon installed (Crossover 11.2)

Can somebody help me?

best regards keks

Do you play in full screen or window mode?

I play in window mode!

I have tested every resolution.

I had this problem before. Usually it worked after starting the program again (without restarting CrossOver). Minimizing and opening the window again helped once, too. But even if you can play the game, the cars won't be rendered correctly.

Do you use a vista or xp bottle?

I use a XP bottle, but the same as in vista bottle.

Sounds worked correctly!
