Could you please explain what's the diference between the three releases available on the GutHub page?

Namely:
-America.xdelta
-Europe.xdelta
-NR.03-07-23.xdelta

Thanks in advance.

Every patch will give you the same output rom. America.xdelta is for the NTSC rom, Europe.xdelta is for pal and NR.03-07-23.xdelta is for the previous build of the hack mainly made to allow updating it from the webpatcher oppossed to just doing a clean patch

Thanks for pointing it.

Is it "normal" for Toad's Factory level to be broken?

At the beginnning of the race I get the wrong direction warning and when running out of track, I endlessly get located on an out of bonds zone so I have to return to the title screen.

Sorry if this has been pointed out before, but the Readme lacks this type of information. Thank again for this nice hack!

Yeah Toad's Factory and Rainbow Road are incomplete

Thanks for your time to answer. I'll wait until this is on a more complete state to play it even more.

Alas, so this is still not the final version? Too bad. It will be for the next one. I too will wait patiently. Thank you and good luck with the final outcome of this project.

Hello gamers, mind answering this poll? It's about WIP content in future builds. Thanks in advance!

Please don't mind the "WIPs stuff" I forgot to delete "stuff" lol.

 

[Nikokaro]

As for me, I answer here: none of the alternatives. Why not release it only when finally complete? I think very few would play it for only a handful of new tracks available, only to come back to it a few months later for a couple more tracks.

 

[rocoloco321]

I think that's a pretty good point, I'll probably send out new builds less often while I make sure the new stuff is worth of a new release. In the matter of that I tend to forget about updating the gba temp thread. The new release will include tricking since Prellit made a tricking asm, I'm tweaking the tracks and his code to play better

So this is Mario Kart DS with Wii tracks and elements. Okay, just like Mario Kart DS with Gamecube Tracks and elements coming from another hack. Still cool though.

 

[rocoloco321]

Hello gamers, sorry for the lack of updates. There has been a lot of them since the last time I posted here. So I am going to give a summary of what's going on behind the scenes.

• First off thanks to fellow modder prellit tricks are now a thing. in case you are not subscribed to my youtube channel I posted about it some time ago.
  
• Second: I also received help with graphics from my friend Birdo, this means the UI is getting a big overhaul starting with a redesigned title screen and a menu overhaul. I put some effort on my end to be able to achieve larger course pictures to try to get a more mkwii ish feel to the menu too.
  
  
  
  
  
  
• And finally but not less important, I'm researching how to add more functional character IDs. I was able to make a working prototype. Please keep in mind that the model shown here was taken from ermii kart ds and is only meant to be a placeholder, I still have not decided which extra characters to add, however I think I only will add 4 more characters so suggestions on who to add are appreciated.

And that's it thank you so much for following the development of this romhack I hope to show more progress soon.

Well, I take this opportunity to make a modest suggestion of my own. You could add a character taken from Looney Toons Racing (psx), one from Wacky Racers (psx), one from Muppet RaceMania (psx) and one from Toy Story Racer (psx) or Smurf Racer (psx). As far as I am concerned, my favorites are the characters from the first two titles mentioned.

As for the rest, I believed for a moment that your hack was already finished, before I hit my snout against the harsh, bitter reality. Alas, all that remains is to wait patiently.

 

[rocoloco321]

Hello Gamers. I came here today to show you the latest progress of the project. I made the course intro more accurate to MKWii

 

[NinXStation]

Mario Kart NR > Mario Kart DS.
Good job!

 

[RetrogamingAddict]

Mushroom cup, toad's factory is brocken. Right from the start, the guy riding a cloud keep telling me i am in the wrong direction, laps don't register, and if i ever fall, i keep spawning in an empty space endless spawn loop.

 

[rocoloco321]

Hello gamers. I'm here once again to show a progress report for Nitro Revolution.
Starting off, we got two new members to the team: Vanilladora and Birdkek. I can't wait to show you what they got to offer!

Now into the actual content upddates:

• Bowser's Castle is now fully playable!!! This track was made by vanilladora. It still needs some adjustments on the map layout file and I have to code in the custom objects used in the track but other than that you can play it from start to finish without any major game breaking errors.
  
  
  
  
• The main course model for Toad's Factory has been completed, it only requires shading and it should be good to be imported into the game.

This looks incredible.
Do you know if it'll be possible to play online with others who have the rom hack? You can still play over Nintendo WFC if you use a private DNS server.
