Lap & Speed Modifier is the name of an Mario Kart Wii extension to modify the number of laps and the basic speed of a race. It was developed by MrBean35000vr for CTGP and is also available as cheat code.



How it works (STGI)

The Lap & Speed Modifier reads some values of KMP/STGI:

  • The byte at offset 0 is used for the number of laps, if it is between 1 and 9.
  • The 2 bytes at offsets 0x0A and 0x0B are interpreted as the 2 most significant bytes of the floating point speed factor. The usual range is 0.5 to 2.0.

Cheat Codes

Cheat codes are available for 3 regions:

PAL

NTSC/USA

NTSC/Japan


Wiimms SZS Tools

Wiimms SZS Tools support the Lap & Speed Modifier in 2 ways:

  • wszst patch supports options --kmp=3laps and --speed-mod=factor to patch a SZS track file.
  • wstrt patch supports the option --add-section=file to add a section to file main.dol. The section can be a gecko code interpreter together with some cheat codes.
