In the above video, you can see some of the awesome things you can do with ShootMania's in-game map editor and replay editor. That entire video was created with in-game tools! Mapmaking is a huge part of ShootMania and is being supported by the developers, Nadeo, to the fullest extent. Users can generate their own maps, skins, and even entirely new game modes with some creativity and little bit of know-how.
If you have the creativity, but are lacking on the know-how, there are resources out there that can really help you get into a map, skin, and mode-generating groove! Two sites that have carried the banner for the user generated content (or UGC) community are Maniapark.com and Mania Exchange.
Mania-Exchange has a huge list of custom maps for a ton of different game modes that you can sort and peruse at your leisure. Downloading maps and hosting a server to play them on is very simple with the in-game server-hosting client. You can go to their map search and just go crazy, downloading everything their users have to offer. You could also upload your own map and ask your buddies to download it, try it out, and rate it on the site.
Maniapark is a little bit different than Mania Exchange because they actually allow you to upload custom skins and game modes in addition to just maps. Check out this Legend of Zelda skin that one Nintendo-loving Shootmaniac uploaded:
You can learn how to make skins, maps, and modes on your own as well thanks to their extensive Tutorials and Forums filled with like-minded content creators! If this sounds like something you would like to do, get started today and you will be uploading your own masterpieces in no time.
