About september 2009, you should keep in mind that by that time, we were back on TrackMania 2 first, before ShootMania and QuestMania. Now, we are trying to make maniaplanet + TrackMania² + ShootMania + QuestMania at the same time. QM will take more time, but after the first title, TrackMania² Canyon, we should be able to release the SM one. So, with maniaplanet and ShootMania on our hands, with Ubisoft also ^_^, we have a little more work to do before the first releases. We have stop to work on the september 2009 environment, Valley, because it was too difficult to push this environement to the end from first try. This is why we decided to start with Canyon instead of Valley and use the car of it that is more appropriate for the american style desert.
We are working hard to be able to launch something that have to be alive for big and for long, and if we had to 'cut' in the dynamic of TM1, it was a necessity to make things better for the adventure of maniaplanet. It is a new start and even this summer should feel small compared to what maniaplanet could deliver of the time after.
December 2010 was the most active month ever on TrackMania (except for the launch month of Nations Forever) and I see many great things being made by the community. I believe we will have to wait for the beta of ShootMania to really feel the big adventure that is maniaplanet. Until then, I think we will also have good time discovering the visuals and articles around TrackMania² Canyon and the beta of it. Last block of Canyon has been made two weeks ago. We still have to work on the code and maniaplanet before releasing the beta, and even take one week of holiday for me, since I am really at full speed since long time and before being at full speed during the betas.
I hope players knows that we are so much waiting for the releases as well, and that it is a great challenge to accomplish. Making TrackMania² Canyon was a real big challenge and we are very happy of having spent the time on quality of pure things like gameplay and graphics!

Das heißt, dass die Arbeiten an der ersten Umgebung für TM2 erstmal abgeschlossen sind und sie vor der Beta erstmal am Code für Maniaplanet arbeiten.
Dabei hat Nadeo sich entschieden erstmal nur die Umgebung Canyon mit seinen "Desert ähnlichen Autos" fertigzustellen und die Vally-Umgebung außen vor zu lassen.
Außerdem wird wohl relativ bald nach dem 1. Envi von TM2 das 1. Envi von SM kommen, zumindest sind die Arbeiten daran auch in vollem Gange.
