Game/Editor is not loading

Trackmania has a limit of custom items (including custom items, blocks, macroblocks, club items). Once you reached that limit your game or editor may stop loading. In this case only thing you can do is to clean up your items/club items folders

Key points

1. Smooth shape
2. No shadow bugs
3. Stackable geometry (means you can make it wider by placing Up+Down variants of the same block next to each other)
4. Correct UV projection
5. Black road/Track walls which fits the shape of other items
6. Predictable sorting of items and folders
