Just did the update but the textures are very weird

#

(i am on starter access and don't have a good PC)

blazing marten Dec 14, 2022, 4:57 PM

#

hmm, haven't seen anyone else with that yet

#

?verify
can you try verifying your game files?

#

There are numerous anecdotal stories about all sorts of weird behaviour for Trackmania. From missing textures to the game seemingly refusing to launch (looking at you, Epic Games Store).

A good chunk of those issues can be resolved by verifying your game files (see the tutorial below). If verification does not help (even if the game literally tells you to do so), your next best bet is to try and run Ubisoft Connect and/or the game as administrator.

How to verify game files

If you're experiencing blackscreens or other abnormal game behavior after an update, first thing you should try to do is verify your game files.

Open Ubisoft Connect, go to your game library and double click on the TrackMania tab.
Click on Properties, scroll down and click on "Verify files".
Wait for the process to complete. If there are any files that have problems, UPlay will automatically redownload them.
Relaunch the game and see if that fixed it.

#

@unreal mural can you tell us your specs first?

#

?speccy

#

uh wait

novel roost Dec 14, 2022, 5:10 PM

#

like in full detail

#

not the stupid windows PC window

#

(Just use Speccy if you don't mind it)

#

This looks a lot like the UVs are misplaced somehow

#

Try restarting the game first

#

and try different texture quality settings in the options menu

im french

novel roost Dec 14, 2022, 5:12 PM

#

unreal mural im french

That's what i meant not to post cuz it's useless mostly

unreal mural Dec 14, 2022, 5:12 PM

#

oh

novel roost Dec 14, 2022, 5:13 PM

#

We need something much more comprehensive like Speccy

unreal mural Dec 14, 2022, 5:13 PM

#

im gonna download it

novel roost Dec 14, 2022, 5:13 PM

#

Cool

#

If i see it correctly tho, you might have only your 5700U's integrated graphics? So you're using those AMD integrated graphics?

#

You might wanna update the drivers for it then

unreal mural Dec 14, 2022, 5:14 PM

#

i dunno

#

it doesn't have a tower

novel roost Dec 14, 2022, 5:15 PM

#

Yeah just send speccy screenshot

#

then we'll know

unreal mural Dec 14, 2022, 5:15 PM

#

#

my pc is just a monitor

novel roost Dec 14, 2022, 5:15 PM

#

Yeah okay

#

So you should update your AMD graphics drivers

unreal mural Dec 14, 2022, 5:15 PM

#

runs tm at 40fps

#

ok

novel roost Dec 14, 2022, 5:16 PM

#

yeye your GPU does support the game in essence

#

And like i said also try restarting the game first

unreal mural Dec 14, 2022, 5:16 PM

#

ye

novel roost Dec 14, 2022, 5:16 PM

#

and try different graphics settings regarding texture quality

unreal mural Dec 14, 2022, 5:16 PM

#

ok

novel roost Dec 14, 2022, 5:16 PM

#

if anything changes

unreal mural Dec 14, 2022, 5:28 PM

#

it didn't work 😦

#

the textures are the same

novel roost Dec 14, 2022, 5:33 PM

#

unreal mural it didn't work 😦

what didn't work

unreal mural Dec 14, 2022, 5:35 PM

#

well i installed the update for AMD and went into the game and the textures were the same even tough i tried changing the textures quality but no result

novel roost Dec 14, 2022, 5:35 PM

#

You did restart your computer in between tho right?

#

And your AMD Adrenalin version is now 22.11.2?

unreal mural Dec 14, 2022, 5:38 PM

#

yes

novel roost Dec 14, 2022, 5:39 PM

#

Then i suppose the best thing you could do for now is to report this issue on the forums with screenshots attached

#

and describe that your textures are projected like 4x scaled too big

#

?bugreport

#

Even with a very dedicated and hardworking alpha-tester team, not every bug and regression is caught and fixed due to time or simply human constraints. Whenever these issues happen on a public release, this Discord server is not the main place to report them and expect them to get fixed. Please do not tag Ubisoft Nadeo employees with bug reports.

The Ubisoft Forums are the best measure to pass your feedback to the developers in a structured way: https://discussions.ubisoft.com/category/823/trackmania?lang=en-US

If your issue has not been reported yet, please help everyone out and take 10 minutes of your time to open up a bug report thread containing as much information as possible on how to reproduce, a general summary of your PC specs (CPU, RAM, Operating System, Graphics Card) and the current Build Info, which you can get by clicking on the version string in the main menu of the game and then pasting it into the thread.

And even if it seems like you don't get a reply, you can be sure that every single report gets read, acknowledged and appreciated!

unreal mural Dec 14, 2022, 5:39 PM

#

ok

novel roost Dec 14, 2022, 5:39 PM

#

Because basically what happens is exactly that

unreal mural Dec 14, 2022, 5:40 PM

#

thanks anyways

novel roost Dec 14, 2022, 5:40 PM

#

Most textures do display at the place where they should be

unreal mural Dec 14, 2022, 5:40 PM

#

yes

novel roost Dec 14, 2022, 5:40 PM

#

but they are put on like 4x too big

#

or even way more

#

like the white stripe on the dirt for example, that's the white line that's usually on the outside of the block, the thin white line

unreal mural Dec 14, 2022, 5:41 PM

#

yes same on the road or any block

novel roost Dec 14, 2022, 5:41 PM

#

#

and those at the start are also a good indicator

unreal mural Dec 14, 2022, 5:42 PM

#

yes but anywhere even on the car

novel roost Dec 14, 2022, 5:42 PM

#

yeah it seems to be just an issue with scaling of almost all textures

unreal mural Dec 14, 2022, 5:42 PM

#

the little dots of fr skin are BIG

#

yes

novel roost Dec 14, 2022, 5:42 PM

#

Have you tried yet to run the game without openplanet too?

#

?noop

full ridgeBOT Dec 14, 2022, 5:42 PM

#

You can hold the Pause/Break key on your keyboard when the game starts, that'll stop Openplanet from starting with it.
If that doesn't work or you don't have that key, you can also rename dinput8.dll to something else in your game directory.

novel roost Dec 14, 2022, 5:43 PM

#

Yes that means no Tweaker

unreal mural Dec 14, 2022, 5:43 PM

#

wait i will try

novel roost Dec 14, 2022, 5:43 PM

#

And perhaps you could also try resetting your graphics settings entirely

#

by deleting the Documents/Trackmania2020/Config/Default.json

#

(Ofc that means you have to set your graphics again in the menus once you are in the game)

unreal mural Dec 14, 2022, 5:44 PM

#

whitout openplanet got the same results

novel roost Dec 14, 2022, 5:44 PM

#

okay good to know

unreal mural Dec 14, 2022, 5:45 PM

#

novel roost And perhaps you could also try resetting your graphics settings entirely

let's try that now

unreal mural Dec 14, 2022, 5:47 PM

#

i just delete the default file, i suppose i have to restart the game

novel roost Dec 14, 2022, 5:47 PM

#

Yeah you do

unreal mural Dec 14, 2022, 5:47 PM

#

k

novel roost Dec 14, 2022, 5:47 PM

#

Delete it while the game is fully closed

unreal mural Dec 14, 2022, 5:47 PM

#

ok

#

nothing changed... again

#

i should report it i guess

novel roost Dec 14, 2022, 5:50 PM

#

Yeah then report it on the forums like i said above

unreal mural Dec 14, 2022, 5:50 PM

#

ye

novel roost Dec 14, 2022, 5:50 PM

#

and state your specs (ryzen 5700U integrated AMD graphics on Adrenalin version 22.11.2)

#

And that basically all your textures are scaled big, but are in their right spots

unreal mural Dec 14, 2022, 5:51 PM

#

ok

novel roost Dec 14, 2022, 5:51 PM

#

Not sure if you can send any logs that would help, since you have no crashes there wouldn't be any log...

unreal mural Dec 14, 2022, 5:52 PM

#

gonna try anyways

novel roost Dec 14, 2022, 5:52 PM

#

Yeah do that

#

And just to confirm

#

you tried through all the texture quality settings right?

#

the very low low medium high very high or whatever exists

unreal mural Dec 14, 2022, 5:52 PM

#

yes

novel roost Dec 14, 2022, 5:53 PM

#

(And restarted the game for each of the settings)

unreal mural Dec 14, 2022, 5:53 PM

#

ye

novel roost Dec 14, 2022, 5:53 PM

#

okay good, yeah then definitely go report it on the forums

unreal mural Dec 14, 2022, 5:53 PM

#

ok

novel roost Dec 14, 2022, 5:53 PM

#

👍

unreal mural Dec 14, 2022, 5:55 PM

#

i dont see where to create the forum...

novel roost Dec 14, 2022, 5:55 PM

#

unreal mural whitout openplanet got the same results

Thanks for this information. I was about to ask.

#

@unreal mural are you still experiencing this issue with the oversized textures? And if so, there's a workaround to turn down texture quality.

unreal mural Mar 10, 2023, 4:12 PM

#

tropic patrol Thanks for this information. I was about to ask.

yes im still having the issue. i tried every texture preset in the settings and it didn't do anything

tropic patrol Mar 10, 2023, 4:13 PM

#

Really? Usually lowering texture quality fixes it for most people.

#

I’ll pass on that info with your system specs.

unreal mural Mar 10, 2023, 4:13 PM

#

well i dont know for me it didn't do anything but i can retry

tropic patrol Mar 10, 2023, 4:14 PM

#

If you want 🙂

unreal mural Mar 10, 2023, 4:19 PM

#

oh wait, there was some settings that i didn't see so now i have everything to the minimum and it works

#

So it's fixed

#

#

thanks anyways

tropic patrol Mar 10, 2023, 5:43 PM

#

Well, it's still broken in highest settings I guess. 😄 But at least there's a workaround for now.

#

Glad it's working for you!

tropic patrol Jul 3, 2023, 9:29 PM

unreal mural Just did the update but the textures are very weird

Hi, is this fixed for you now? It should have been fixed with the July 1st update.
