How will you respond now 🤭 kzbin.info/www/bejne/hIG8fnWwr8qJn5o

[@vitaobatera]

How about half throtle? Do you have a steering wheel around? Maybe a controler could fit the bill... Remember, half throtle doesn't mean half the speed...

[@simonariel3993]

2:55 why are you stearing left

[@h4ck2z]

That's such a good project, but now to answer the first question: "Can you beat Trackmania NF steering in only one direction?", it creates the question if it is possible to beat Trackmania NF without steering left. We may will never now...

[@Derpy-qg9hn]

And mapping, say, steer to A/D, throttle to Up-Arrow, and brake to Spacebar or RShift is quite possibly more comfortable anyway. Don't have to squeeze your hand into the tiny area of four keys, and your two hands can reserve themselves for two wildly different tasks.

[@niksxr]

D12 is possible. I managed to find an angle that allowed me to get to the last block of the wallride, where I fell off due to low speed BUT this attempt was directly from the checkpoint, without gathering speed first - which you could do.

[@jojolords4523]

Then TMNF could get beaten only steering to the left.

Actually... His initial challenge was not to drive left OR right. So he didn't even complete that one. In case The ones he didn't managed with not staring right are possible with not staring left he gotta try all the others again to actually prove the initial challenge impossible or possible.

I personally never played this game, but I can only imagine how incredibly hard this is and how dedicated you have to be to complete this crazy idea. I can only respect you for all the effort you put into this + getting the shots and doing a voiceover. Really impressive!!

[@Perplaxus]

Great video and concept but, I must ask, if you were instead allowed to use EITHER only left or only right, would it be possible? I would love it if you keep doing these "is it possible to beat [trackmania game] while [playing with this limitation]" Example: is it possible to beat this while never stepping off the gas and never braking? I imagine yes but you get the idea.

[@joogiewatkins1519]

Perhaps an idea would be disabling a key (forward, backwards, left and right) for each track. Like for A01 he could drive without braking and on A02 he could drive without going left or something.

[@CaTastrophy427]

@@joogiewatkins1519 Most tracks don't need backward lol

[@albertbrzozowski]

hey Wirtual, congrats on finishing this journey! As a speedrunner (half life though) I really enjoyed seeing your creativity, commitment and sheer will to do this. So glad you haven't abandoned it on the first track. I love the "angle" trick you came up with too. That must've felt good to find it "by accident". Good luck on your future projects :)

[@dani02_mmd]

...and especially one with loops, walrides and big jumps [shows A04]

[@Bismuth9]

Great video! I wish it went into more detail on each track, possibly adding a little bit of drama and showing a little more of the successful runs. I think it could even have worked as a 4 or 5-part series.
