Trackmania players have been building and sharing maps for about 20 years through Mania Exchange, which has a public API. There was no packaged dataset for any of it, so I made one.
Contents: 850k+ maps across Trackmania Nations Forever and Trackmania 2020. Each map is decomposed into its block sequence with positions and rotations, so the level structure is directly usable rather than sitting in a binary blob. Replays are parsed into telemetry and aligned to the blocks the run passes through, so you get both the level and how it plays.
Format: Parquet, roughly 30GB. Data dictionary included.
License / source: everything comes from the public Mania Exchange API. Maps are community-created.
Possible uses: procedural level generation, level design analysis, player behaviour modelling, map recommendation, or just exploring what 20 years of community map-making looks like in aggregate. I used it for generation myself, but that’s one angle out of many.

Disclosure: I work in data at Ubisoft in Canada, but I have no connection to Nadeo. Built at home on my own time, resources and dime, just something for the Trackmania community and for anyone curious, whether game telemetry is your thing or not.
Open to feedback or ideas (you can also used discussions on HF/Kaggle)
