T-Online 2004 Showcase#
An exclusive German review of a very early build of TrackMania Sunrise. The only version of this video with audio that has been archived is from a stream clip by a certain infamous TrackMania player which shall not be named. Watch on YouTube
Coast "Trailer"#
In August 2004 at the Leipzig Games Convention, a German player recorded a previously un-reveleaed Coast environment that was left in the game's code. The video showed a rolling demo of the Coast environment in its very early stage of development, where only terrain and basic road blocks were made. In some shots, it's possible to see the CoastHotel block in the background. After the video spread over the internet, Nadeo decided to officially re-upload it via their official website.2
Despite the file being called "coast-trailer.zip", this video is not edited, aside from an added background music track. Watch on YouTube
SLIN 2004 Showcase#
At the December 2004 SLIN event, an early build of TrackMania Sunrise was showcased. Most notably, it showed the game still using rolling demos, which were removed from any public release of the game.
One video recording showcasing the Island rolling demo was archived on the Wayback Machine.3 The demo takes place on a track that would later become "OverTheTop" in the platform campaign.
Note: the music in the video seems to be added in post and is not part of the game. Watch on YouTube
