1) Yay for the 1000 maps milestone
2) The 20000 maps promotion is indeed a bit strange. Maybe they count every single mapfile created?


Yeah, 20 000 is the total number of maps created in the editor by all players, and this is the number we took as a reference. :)

From the official ManiaPlanet page on Google+:

... says:
It’s been an incredible ride since the beginning of the ShootMania alpha and beta, and today during the Ubisoft Press Conference taking place at GamesCom in Germany, we took a moment to look back at what YOU, the players, have achieved.

The Story Begins - ShootMania Storm

But this is just the beginning, and we have great plans for the development of ManiaPlanet, big news that will bring players of TrackMania and ShootMania from all around the world, together in their love of competitive gaming. We’re not quite ready to talk about it yet, but you can already set the date: in November of this year, during the ESWC competition in Paris, Nadeo will hold a press conference to tell you more about it.

In the meantime, we continue to work very hard on the development of ManiaPlanet and on taking over the world of competitive gaming and eSports with ShootMania and TrackMania. Lots of things are happening every week on ManiaPlanet, so watch this space, and don’t hesitate to share the spirit around you !

aww, 1000th map got deleted :(

Congrats tho ShootManiacs! Nice milestone! (y)

I'm curious though... this video suggests there are 20,000 maps. That would be true if you include TrackMania 2 Canyon.

But if you limited it to SM... even if you include the maps people have built and not uploaded to SMX, I find it hard to believe 20,000 SM maps have been created.

Canyon has been out a year and only recently hit 20,000 maps.

Perhaps the video is predicting the future of map making in SM. I could definitely see it becoming even more popular than TM2.

Also, thanks for sharing these stats. Very interesting to see the distribution of maps across different gamemodes.
