"CTGP Deluxe" mod for Mario Kart 8 Deluxe is available now



The days of Wii modding brought forth a big number of diverse entries, from New Super Mario Bros. mods and its recreations of past titles or entirely new maps and gameplay, to Super Smash Bros. Brawl and its still strong mod scene with new fighters, maps, music and almost everything in the game, to also Mario Kart Wii mods, which prompted the inception of the now widely known "CTGP" named hacks for anything Mario Kart.

Since then, CTGP mods for Mario Kart titles have been available for each entry of the series since, with Wii being the first one, then Mario Kart 7 (CTGP-7) and now for Mario Kart 8, which is based on Mario Kart 8 Deluxe for this mod, titled "CTGP Deluxe".

This new CTGP entry adds entirely new tracks to the original Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, which range from past Mario Kart tracks from the SNES, GBA, 3DS and other older entries, to tracks from other racing franchises, like Diddy Kong Racing, new tracks inspired by levels from other non-racing games, like Sonic Unleashed, to entirely new custom maps made exclusively for this CTGP DX release.

CTGP Deluxe adds 14 new cups, with 56 additional custom tracks and an all-new soundtrack with brand new features, and is available for download right now for those interested in trying it out in either their own hacked Switch, or through an emulator, at the CTGP Deluxe website, with install instructions available on the site as well.

Sadly can not be uploaded here nor put direct links, because it contain copyrighted material and we need to have the Ninjas far away.

I might be misunderstanding something, because I don't understand how a ROM hack could be considered warez, especially if the official website with download links was linked by GBAtemp staff in the OP.

because inside the ROM hack there are Assets Copyrighted, they have original music from big N, normally you should not distribute that type of material. if no original Big N material was included you could share here.

I just tested it, looks awesome. Too bad they removed the LAN play, I used to play on custom servers, now it is either the extra tracks or the "online" fun with friends!! I really wish it will be figured out soon as it really does extend the game lifespan!

I was hoping to use this combined with Sitbar's 3.0 mod pack but the tracks crash upon loading.

And maybe a different thread should be made but for that update the DLC tracks don't swap, at least on Ryujinx.

Note that if you use Yuzu or any of its forks, it apparently doesn't work

Do you mean multiplayer on the same console I guess? What about the local multiplayer with each player on his own switch? How do you get it to work?
You don't. As I wrote in a previous comment in this thread, they (CTGPDX devs) mistakenly used the term "local multiplayer" for "couch multiplayer / splitscreen" while the "real" local multiplayer (ad-hoc wireless) is not available yet.

Thanks anyway, followed your advice (copied it to my GDrive) and it downloaded without issues. Will test it ASAP when I get my Wii U working again. Downloaded it just in case it gets taken down.

Sadly this is more than just a romhack, as it contains assets from the original game. If it were only the patch file, it "might" be OK to add a direct download link here.

I've managed to download it following @impeeza's advice.

Thank you both!
