[Relase] Shootmania Storm Client 2013 (LAN/Offline Bypass) + Server + Ranking Server

[Flyer8472]

Hi it is Relase time again!

For those who are not familiar with this program there is the trailer:



And an other for TM2 Stadium:

Captain obvious is here: There is no source code. Never will be no use asking around no one has it besides Nadeo.

Also answer to why this is here: In my best knowing there is no one who has the game with working server nowadays working with completely offline. it is a lucky catch. Its a client that not yet required and relying any constant online only game nor this is not a Steam version. it is a completely independent version with the bypass requed to play with it. Also i made a preconfigured server here. I relased it on Discord before, but i'll do it here too.

Here is the Shootmania Storm Client+Server+StatDB from 2013. This particular client is a version where they relased the game for public, and they were forgot to implement the "must-have-to-be-online-fix" i just saved this in just the nick of the time back in the days. You can play on lan/online with offline profiles. It is working 100% as the original. Nowadays Nadeo/Ubi protects better their games; but they are made a mistake thats why we have this now.


Client version is: 2013-08-01_17_12 Yes it is old, but it works online/lan flawlessly. :D Even works with the Dedicated Server i provided.(You need to connect to it manually, but more of this below) Tested on multiple LAN championships before.
I made a bypass for this version, also i collected a lot of scripts, and character models, we are used this program mostly for lan parties. All editors are working, you can make levels, program gamemodes, and use the preconfigured server with ranking custom music server and all other stuffs. It even has some basic level bots, but you need to program their behaviour in the editor(what is notoriously easy to use as in all other maniaplanet titles :D :P)


It has 4 main modes, Storm, Elite, Joust and Royal, but i implemented a LOT more scripts(around 50 more) in the main Storm game. You need to create maps for some modes, there are tutorials on youtube for this purpose SMS has its own scripting language similar to C++ to make your own game rules.

Client Usage:

1. Download from here:


Old version Shootmania only:

Updated version with Trackmania Stadium 2:


Download Part 1


Download Part 2



Both are working either way, Stadium is just an extra to the pack :D
2. Extract(To a fix location, do not use special or non standard character names in the path of the game. Avoid spaces/asian letters/cyrillic/arabic ect... if possible or it wont work.)

3. Start start.cmd in Administrator rights(It needs it otherwise your game will damaged at first start and you will need to begin with step 1 again. ;) It will check the bypass in the hosts files, also setup the game folders if the client itself was movet to some other folders. you can check the procedure in the file itself. It is simple really.)

4. The launcher will start in the background, press ALT+TAB to see it. Setup the language, and others in settings(it has a SHITLOAD number of language translations)

5. If everything goes well, the game will tell you that it cannot connect to the master server. This is the normal behaviour. (also with this bypass you WONT be able to use real game if you have it, becouse the bypass works on the original in nowadays also.)


6. Next, press offline and create a profile. Setup a name, avatar, victory music, ect...

7. in the menu you will see tiles, you can play any of them, but if you want all mods in one, start STORM the main title.(Hold CTRL+Mousewheel up and down if you want to resize the tiles for a size to your better suiting your needs)

8: Optional: you can host on lan, in that case the others who is on the same subnetwork/vpn will see your server whn you hosting.

9: Optional: you can connect to your or other Dedicated server. But the dedi servers will sometimes notshow up on your game finder ingame, since those are not lan servers so you need to type this the ingame webbrowser-like stuff address bar in that case.

Drag your mouse to the top of the screen and the appearing browser bar type this:

maniaplanet://#join=192.168.1.2::2350@SMStorm

Of course change your IP to your server's IP address... and press enter.

Dedicated Server usage:

In the client there is a blank, unconfigured server, but i made a preconfigured one, download it here:
https://mega.nz/#!gFl1mT7T!5jwJIimjB...avBSjvRi-8ln7k


This has the server, configured to royale mode, with mysql ranking, team clan system ingame and preconfigured PHP/MYSQL/MPASECO and withsome maps.


1. Extract it somewhere
3. Run Server\MPASECO\Mysql.bat
2. Run Server\RunSrvSM.bat for default startup.(You can customize anything later.)

3. If you are running on the same machine as your client the client will find this in your browser, but if not, you can connect with theaddress bar from above client section.
4: Further tweaking, and setup see the maniaplanet forums, the tutorials there are helping for the most parts.

Good to know: THIS is an OLD i mean REALLY old client so the maps that you probably want to download from the official forums WONT WORK AT ALL!! Newer versions had some mayor tweakings and patches and new blocks it wont work at all.

Also IT WONT WORK with the custom models from nowadays. Only if you can get the player models in the older, extracted(zip) form (not in gbx extension) and the models made BEFORE 2014.02... then it will work 100% otherwise it will only show a * beside the player model name and ingame it wont load or just crash the game itself simply.

nice but i dont like those kind of games

[Flyer8472]

No problem. :D There is plenty of games around here ;)

Its... more like Quake combined with trackmania XD But its way more simpler.

[xlw00tlx]

does it have Bots /ai mode? if not is kinda a waste,cause you wont always get a full team of people to play with/against

[Flyer8472]

It has a programmable AI. I did wrote down on the main thread, it has bots but you need to configure them also doing a little coding. There is the Horde gamemode too; what is like a tower defense mode....

Also lets be clear about this: IT is an online stuff, you will need to gather some people for the most of the game modes... but the most game modes are very enjoyable with 2-3 people too. So you wont need hundreds of them. Its a question of taste. It is not waste at all. You can Write any gamemode as you please, but you need to learn some coding. And to be honest most games here are requesting more peoples than 1-2 :P :P Its a Multiplayer game, not vs ai for the most part.

Suprise Update People!


I did played with my old files around; and i managed to add a little upgrade to the client :D


I successfully added TM2 Stadium. Only client, and only 2013 version(the 2018 that is floating around in the erm... "air" it is incompatible with this pack). I dont know if the server is compatible with it but it came from that era, sooo.... maybe..? It works similar like Storm.


You can host lan, splitscreen, it has Single player mode too(Single map) I added Canyon and Valley too but those titles are unplayable since those requires online activation so i disabled and removed them(Canyon is playable though' if you aquire from "other" sources separately... but that is incompatible with this too.).


Updated link with Shootmania + Trackmania 2 Stadium extract with winrar part 1 and it will extract part 2 automatical:


Part 1: https://mega.nz/#!RAtmTKTR!LUmiM-YIyBTvoS1n0u9DNUOuO7TWBc5M6j93oCMZU5o


Part 2: https://mega.nz/#!MFknSYYA!riOJgHuU6...IcrG351P0ETAv4

Adding to main thread too. Usage is the same as the previous one. You will found the game amongst the title packs ingame.


For @xlw00tlx and others: TM2 Stadium has NO AI players either, i mean in not the orthodox way... you can record replay ghosts to play against with. on any stage. And yes TM2 Stadium is free nowadays too. But its just a gratis since it is working so why not?! The server part is mostly for SMStorm not Stadium. But it might work with it with some reconfiguration.
