Toad Circuit in Mario Kart Wii - Version 1.0 Released

Re: Toad Circuit in Mario Kart Wii - RC1 Released

First public release, almost everything's done, I'm mainly making a public release for testing purposes. And then I realize I've technically been working on this for over 2 and a half years.

Maybe if I and someone else can get Wiimfi working we could test how well it works online as well.

This is incredible! I can't wait to play it. I see that the glitch is still there but I am not too bothered by it.

Version 1.0 has been released, mainly updates the look of the track and fixes a .kcl bug that really didn't do anything but I ironed it out regardless.

 

[Mintiously]

YES!

So for those wondering about other CTs I may to in the future:

My plan was to do Rainbow Road from Mario Kart 8, but because two people are already doing that, I'm planning on making one that has a Super Mario Galaxy motif, rather than an accurate remake, though the track itself will remain largely the same.

That is, if I can simplify the models enough to prevent slowdown.

I've played on your course. With unfitting music of course.

I suggest you add another respawn point...maybe near the finish line like a typical Nintendo made course. It might need better shaders and you're missing a balloon or two. If you can't add them because of limitations, totally understandable.

Other than that, the course is perfect. There's no bugs and glitches I've encountered with the free-fly cheat: computers don't drive into walls indefinitely like they do to some custom tracks.

Can you really call bugs encountered with free-fly bugs? Seeing they were caused by means that are never happening when you play as should?

Yeah and I may have seen another person saying they were going to do Wii U Rainbow Road, only one of them has actually made a custom track. I wouldn't expect a good one from any of them.

I sure hope you do make one! I would really be interested to see how it could be done. Also if you do need some Planets since it will be like a SMG styled one, go to the Models Resource, it has some models of planets in Super Mario Galaxy.

There is just one problem with the Model Resource here and that is that you then take a model from Wii, convert it to a format suitable for 3D computer applications, then convert it back to Wii. Losses and such. In this case it would be better to use an original.

Yes, because it's an excellent tester for respawn points and CPU routes. Nintendo courses NEVER have problems where computers are indefinitely stuck, even for courses that is impossible to fall off in. Besides you have to softmod your Wii anyway to play these tracks, therefore meaning that cheat codes are entirely possible if you prefer this way.

 

[Lakituthequick]

Fair enough, though I prefer playing with Dolphin. That aside, there are enough people that only put in new courses and don't use cheats of sorts. I personally think it is the problem of the cheaters that they cause bugs, not of the track creators.

 

[Xiahou Ba]

It's not necessarily cheating that can cause discovery of some bugs. For example, the Star City port from Diddy Kong Racing has a very serious CPU respawn bug in the city part of the stage, where, if you have a star and legitly knock Wario to the edge, it&#
