Nice guide Ph4lanx. I have the full version of TM Sunrise and since upgrading to Windows 7 have not managed to play it. Starforce caused loads of problems when I installed it so im not going to bother again. After a reboot with starforce on I got the first blue screen i had seen since installing Windows 7. I was running all stock settings at the time too so nothing related to memory, cpu or gpu overclock.

If games want custom rubbish like starforce or other programs I simply dont install them... For me they are almost as bad a getting a virus

I completely agree mate. I refuse to buy products until they either patch out the DRM rubbish or come out on budget without the DRM anyway.

It's just getting ridiculous these days.

I have the free version of Trackmania and it's working fine under Win7. I am not sure about the other Trackmania games though.

I loved TM Sunrise too, I got really far and even kept my savegame. If I were you i would just buy it on steam. Im tempted to try and sell my copy of it and buy the steam version.

Do you think steam TM Sunrise would use starfcuk?

GJ02 · 26 Apr 2010 at 17:25

its not on steam, only nations is on steam

Is Nations as good as Sunrise?
When its installed through steam does it still try to use starforce, drm or anything other than steam?

Just get TM United, it has all the game styles in it.

But only nations is on steam. Does TM United require starforce, drm or anything?

I have the non-steam version and it doesn't require the CD in the drive.

TrackMania Nations Forever - Free
Trackmania United Forever Star Edition - £20

Is it worth paying £20 United?

I'm biased as I play the game everyday and have for over 6 years* now. As a value for money purchase it is hard to beat.

*Obviously not TM United Forever, but have played all variations of TM since the original beta.
