Trackmania Fps Boost Guide

There may be people who have performance issues in the new Trackmania game, which is free to play. That's why I created a useful guide for those who have low fps, freezing, memory leak, and stuttering problems in Trackmania.

Especially the memory leak issue seems to be the biggest problem of the game. Do not worry, I will gather all the suggestions in this article and update the guide constantly so that you can solve all the performance problems in the new Trackmania.

Can I run Trackmania

Here's what you need to run the new Trackmania on your PC.

	Minimum System Requirements	Recommended System Requirements
CPU	Intel Core i5-2500k, AMD FX-6100	Intel Core i5-4690K, AMD Ryzen5 1500X
GPU	2GB video memory - NVIDIA GeForce GTX 660 or AMD Radeon R9 270X	4GB video memory - NVIDIA GeForce GTX 970 or AMD Radeon RX 480
RAM	8 GB	8 GB
Storage	2 GB available space	2 GB available space
OS	Windows 7/8.1/10 (64 bit only)	Windows 10 (64 bit only)

1) Update Your GPU Drivers

If you want to play the game smoothly, you should start by updating the video card drivers first.

The GPU drivers supported in the current version of Trackmania are 451.48 Nvidia and 20.5.1 AMD. Of course this may change in the future, so be sure to always keep the drivers up to date. Use the links below to find the drivers:

Nvidia: https://www.nvidia.com/download/index.aspx
AMD: https://www.amd.com/en/technologies/radeon-software

2) Disable Fullscreen Optimizations

Playing the game in full screen mode is good for performance. But, since full screen optimizations in Windows 10 cause some performance issues and this feature is enabled by default, you should disable the Full Screen Optimizations.

Go to the folder where Trackmania is installed, find the Trackmania.exe and follow the steps in this guide to disable Fullscreen Optimizations.

3) Memory Leak Fix

There is definitely a memory leak in Trackmania. You are very likely to encounter memory leak issue. The game starts lagging after you play for a while. Your time to face this problem may be earlier or later depending on the amount of Ram.

Anyway, just follow the steps in this guide to solve the memory leak issue in Trackmania.

4) Windows Performance Options

If your computer barely runs Trackmania, you can optimize Windows for performance. Follow this to optimize Windows.

5) NVIDIA Control Panel & AMD Radeon Settings

If you want to increase the performance a little more in Trackmania, I recommend you to apply the NVIDIA Control Panel and AMD Radeon settings I have specified.

6) Controller

I don't know why, but sometimes controllers cause performance issues in the game and that's why you get low fps in Trackmania. If it doesn't matter to you, you should unplug the gamepad/controller and try playing the game with your keyboard.

7) Best Graphics Settings for Performance

Those who do not want to compromise on graphics quality do not have to adjust these settings, but it is useful to know which options are affecting performance.

To change the video settings: navigate to Settings > Graphic

	Minimum System	Performance
Customize	Tick	Tick
Preset	None	None
Shader quality	Very low	High or Low
Shadows	Minimum	Minimum
Texture quality	Very low	Medium
Display mode	Fullscreen	Fullscreen
Automatic Min FPS	60	Disable
Maximum Fps	150	150
Forward antialiasing	None	None
Deferred antialiasing	None	FXAA or None
Texture filtering	Bilinear	Anisotropic 2x or Trilinear
Reflections on vehicles	Low	Low
Bloom and lens flare	None	None
V-Sync	None	None

Apply and restart the game.

8) Ghosts

Especially in 200-person races, ghost cars cause the frame rate drops. So hit the button 2 on your controller (G on keyboard) during race to turn-off the ghosts. You will get an extra 5-10 fps from that.
