ROM Hack Official Mario Kart 7 - Custom Track Grand Prix 7 (CTGP-7)

[Bobobombastisch]

How to change textures for characters? When I use the method from the video, all get a little bit transparent and in shy guys case half of his mask is wrong

You need to hex edit in order to get untouched models with custom textures

@Pablomf6 , I have a question, possibly you can at least point some tips... I was trying to replace Rainbow Road 7's music with the Rainbow Road Medley from Smash Bros 3DS.

I started the conversion from a MP3 file, then lowered the sample rate to 32000Hz, set the loop points through Yata+ and generate the two bcstm files (one for the main 2 segments, and a more faster, with high tempo, to the final part). Replaced both inside the decompressed romfs with the appropriated filenames, and repacked the romfs.

When I started playing, after three or four seconds, the music disappeared, and a few seconds later the game froze, forcing me to power down the 3DS.

What I need to do for replacing the music files without this crash error? Thanks in advance for any answers.

As well as MKWII, some courses are multi-channel, and EFE can't generate bcstm for them (2 channels normal course, 2 channels moon section).

 

[KaleoOmega]

Ah, I understand... Well, at least I tried. Thanks for your information

You can download game music from brawlcustommusic.com ready for mk7.Just press download as bcstm.

There's a tool called BRSTM to BCSTM, which converts the wiis sound files to the BCSTM files compatible with the 3DS. That could be useful for some people here.

 

[KaleoOmega]

In the end, I made a change: replaced the track files for the SNES Rainbow Road instead of MK7 Rainbow Road, and my two edited bcstm files worked without problems (but I should have raised the volume a little more...).
Thanks for your tips, I'll check brawlcustommusic later to see if I can change other tracks

It seems like there is an update for N64RR in the way.....

Wow, just tell me when I should rebuild my ROMFS! So many updates!

 

[GCNMatt]

Anyone fixed the invalidated icache issue
I'm on 10.0, with a physical cartridge, yet it gives that to me every time.
I just want n64 rainbows!!

Fantastic one, wow! Can't wait to rebuild my romfs too

@Pablomf6 - about this specific track, isn't possible to play online with random people, since the game crashes (although is possible in other tracks).

But I wonder: playing online only with people that have the CTGP-7 tracks too (let's say, in a private community just for CTGP-7 players), also crashes the game?

is there a place where custom tracks are posted besides the official ctgp-7? I've seen sky garden but never got to play it.

You can download GBA Sky Garden here, but:

1) It's incomplete at the moment, since lacks item boxes
2) It replaces SNES Mario Circuit 2 - and this one is replaced already by SNES Mario Circuit 1 on CTGP-7. Which means, you have to choose which track you want.

I feel like I should make a general tutorial on Hans and LayeredFS.

what if i rename it?

I asked @Pablomf6 about the same thing days ago, and... you can't: http://gbatemp.net/threads/mario-kart-7-custom-track-grand-prix-7-ctgp-7.396936/page-4#post-5764642

Nope, unlike Mario Kart Wii, the course name is everywhere on the course file, so a CT will only work on the slot it is developed, and there only can be 32 CT. Untilsomeone manages to do an asm hack to allow more CTs...

For some ubknown reaon, N64 frappe snowland is the only working online. Stewie1.0 has a video proving it on his channel.

Obviously it has something to do with loading model data, and not texture data. Also, was playing ds download play and i de-synched. That might have something to do it. That or my hans overclock.
