Trackmania dev analyses 15 years’ worth of records to root out the cheaters

In late May this year, cheating allegations began to catch up with some of the fastest names in Trackmania. Following months of investigation by youtuber Wirtual and co-investigator donadigo, a video was posted containing damning evidence against seven of the top names in the game: including the hugely popular Trackmania streamer Riolu.

In Trackmania, records are everything, and this investigation showed that the cheating had gone on for longer than a decade, spanning multiple Trackmania games. You can read the full story here but, essentially, the cheaters had used software to ‘play’ the game at slower speeds, allowing for rates of input that would be impossible under normal conditions (one player confessed to Wirtual via DM that he used game speeds of between 40-80%).
