I tested Install & Play several times because I have instaled also TMUF and Install & Play would help me a lot, but not working. My os: Windows 10, My browsers Opera & Chrome ...

Do you also see in the stadium enviroments a glossy road as if waxed ?

Personally I selected during installation HD Textures. In game i use the best graphical resolution what is possible.
But in the stadium environment the result is ugly. :|
I think there's wrongly set of alpha channel on specular texture.
Does anyone have a similar problem?

Yeah, the reflective stadium road after shadow calculation has been implemented as default by Nadeo.

Edit: Whoops, didn't mean to use my testing account for posting here - nevermind the different username ;)

Yes you're probably right. There are some characters probably badly understood.
the real name of track contains the characters: ($ffo) collors ($i) italic ($s) shadows ($o) bold
$ffo$i$s$ oFracture
Ill test some changes as you say ;)

The o in $ffo is probably what's making the extra o appear in the name. Colors are defined in hex, with values between 0 (not o) and f. When converting, there might be a parser which looks for colors from $000 to $fff, but when encountering other characters such as o, it doesn't treat them as zeroes like in MP3.

I'm pretty sure that renaming a map should retain the UID of it. :)

Unfortunately, UID maps are always changed.
I tried to swap these labels, ($ffo $i $s $o) to ($o $ffo $i $s) I tested deleted the "$" labels totally , but the UID of map always changed :$
For UID detection I used old and reliable Electron's Gbx dumper.

I have downloaded the current version on my hdd so far because any other transfer will damage it.
This is not my famous map, but I built it for a long time :s . I would just be sorry to lose the records and lose the dedimania status .
Regarding the modifier "$o" , he is still used . Because my current nick for online driving contains "$o" and there not a problem.

I might be able to modify the name of your track without changing the UID in the file - will try that later :)
