2013-07-05 MetaStats, GBX Data Fetcher & Medals page for Valley
  Another update of the MetaStats look-up tool for player logins brings solo/multiplayer rankings and Dedimania stats for the newly released TM² Valley. Additionally, the Medal times page for TM² Valley is now online.
Lastly, a few minor adjustments to the GBX Data Fetcher module make it handle TM² Valley better as well.

Also, the Medal times page for TM² Stadium now includes the official solo campaign tracks.

2013-03-09 XASECO2 v1.02 for TM² released
  Eagerly anticipated since the TM² Stadium open beta commenced, here is the new v1.02 release of XASECO2. This update offers better handling of the new environment (hopefully also allowing the future Valley release to work with no/few changes), support for the new Continent component in ManiaZones, and a few other improvements and fixes. For details see the XAseco1/2 forum.
 
2013-01-02 UIdFinder launched
  The new UIdFinder page is now online, providing an easy way to look up information on a UId, the unique identifier for TrackMania challenges and ManiaPlanet maps (including ShootMania and, once that is available, QuestMania). The tool searches for the UId on TMX, MX and online servers where Dedimania records for it were driven, and the results page can be easily hyperlinked and shared.
