GBA Ribbon Road (DemyxIX)
Overview
At long last, a stable playable version of Ribbon Road for the GBA! This remake was constructed entirely by DemyxIX, with plenty of help from such CT creators as BigOto2, Vulcanus2, Baoulettes, and Tock. This is the first custom track to feature a three-layered vrcorn_model, which is included in the course model, and was made to imitate the original. Not to mention animated arrows. This custom track took over a month to complete, and several days worth of solid testing.

Known Errors
There are a few errors and glitches in the track. The most noticable of which is the poor texture mapping on the road. The road was actually texture mapped properly in 3ds Max, but becomes skewed when imported into SZS Modifier or loaded in game. This occurs on both the Wii and Dolphin emulator.
Another error is with the hanging pennants, that tend to have the Harry Potter Effect. And some of the other transparent textures as well. Fixing these will be attempted for RC2.
RC1 has massive slowdown effect when playing 2-player split screen offline.
Finally, there is one more small glitch, and that is in the areas closest to the outside of the track. if you fall in an area just outside of the track, pocha (the water splash) will not activate, and you will fall in a black void. This is because before when the water was at the very edge of the outside of the track, you could drive into a wall and you will fall 'out of bounds' and respawn. This is planned to be fixed in RC2.
