I am really sorry needing to ask these questions and I feel bad for it. I know there are thousands of answers to similar questions so far but I cant find one for my specific question within this flood of information...
We are soon going to have a lan party and as every year Trackmania will be again a part of it.
During the last year I created a full country skin set for every single country of the world in TMNF. I do know I cannot upload any skin using p2p with TMNF.
But first question:
Would the custom skins work if I create a "patch" for the game that places the skins in everyone's game folder? As far as I know TMNF is at least able to view custom skins online/in lan, does it?...
Second:
IF the first idea with custom "patching" does not work, did I understand correctly that you can activate custom skins in TMNF by buying a Trackmania game? Would that also work for everyone? Is there any Trackmania game I could buy that allows everyone to play in LAN with this only one copy (like it was with Age of Empires II for example)? The others wouldn't buy a Trackmania game just for a LAN but I was thinking to do so anyway...
I am sorry to bother you with these questions but I have no second computer in reach to test for myself...
I know some people may freak out for the millionth time those type of TMNF custom skin questions were asked, but please stay objective

greetings
