Overview

Nitro CT Pack is a custom track distribution created by HackStarz. It is the successor to Cuberluigi CT Pack and Cuber's Hack Pack. In its current state, a majority of tracks are classic tracks or tracks with interesting layouts. It has Countdown Mode, Time Trials Online, Double Framerate, First Person, Shortcut Mode, 200cc, 200kmh Speed, and Random Items game modes. It also has an option for Extreme CPUs.

Shortcut Mode

In this mode, you can drive on off-road without slowing down, drive through walls and barriers and respawn instantly instead of having to wait.

Extreme CPUs

This option modifies kartAISpdParam.bin and ItemSlot.bin in the Common.szs file to make CPUs more difficult to beat, while also giving them better items. It is made to be harder than in Mario Kart Wii but the CPUs Are Impossible. Due to how Random Items works, the CPUs will not be as difficult on that game mode.

Engine class	50cc	100cc	150cc and Mirror
Easy total speed	70	80	90
Normal total speed	85	95	105
Hard/GP total speed	100	110	120

Special Features

Below are listed special features that are included in this distribution:

Game Features

Feature	Author	Information
1st Person	JoshuaMK	Game mode that puts the camera right at the vehicle instead of zooming out.
200cc	JoshuaMK, Ro, Supastarrio, davidevgen, stebler	Remake of CTGP Revolution's 200cc mode. Fast falling and brake drifting are used, as well as other codes that have been included to improve the experience.
200kmh Speed	JoshuaMK, Ro, Supastarrio, davidevgen, stebler	Makes all tracks speed default to 200 km/h. Fast falling and brake drifting are used, as well as other codes that have been included to improve the experience.
Automatic BRSAR Patching	Chadderz	An option that automatically patches the revo_kart.brsar for custom music. Disable if you already have the file in an enabled My Stuff folder.
Countdown Mode	MrBean35000vr, JoshuaMK	Countdown Mode has been added as a replacement for battles in single player online play. However, on Nitro CT Pack, Countdown uses it's own region instead of replacing the battle region. JoshuaMK updated this mode to work offline.
Custom Menu System	Chadderz	This distribution makes use of custom menus to load custom course slots. The cup selection menu is modified with two buttons featuring arrows to the left and right of the main cups. When selected, these buttons cause the current on-screen cup buttons to be replaced with other cups, including custom cups, creating a scrolling menu system. All custom tracks are stored inside custom cups.
Custom Server Support	Wiimm, Leseratte	Support to play on a custom MKW server has been added as a replacement to Nintendo WFC.
Change Characters Between Wi-Fi Races	MrBean35000vr	When in online play, the player's character, vehicle and drift mode choice may be changed between races by pressing + on the Wii Remote (or Start on the GCN Controller) when on the VR screen. This simply takes the player back to the character select menu, and then returns them to the vote when they have reselected. If the time limit expires, the currently selected options are taken.
Double Framerate	MrBean35000vr	Made by tricking the game into thinking it's meant to run at 120fps while outputting 60. The game and almost all elements within it move twice as fast as normal!
Draggable Blue Shells	MrBean35000vr	Blue Shells can now be held behind you like Red and Green Shells. They will explode on contact, but not hurt the player. They can be used to protect against other items being shot from behind, but if wheelie-bumped while holding a blue shell behind you it will fall away and disappear. Only one Blue Shell can exist at once, so even when it is held out behind you it will be impossible for anyone else to get one from an item box.
Exception Handler	Star, Riidefi	This code will display exception information on the television screen when an exception occurs. After the console is finished scrolling, you will be returned to the Wii System Menu.
Extreme CPUs	HackStarz	This option modifies kartAISpdParam.bin and ItemSlot.bin in the Common.szs to make CPUs more difficult to beat, while also giving them better items. Due to how Random Items works, the CPUs won't be as difficult on that game mode.
LE-CODE	Leseratte	This distribution uses the LE-CODE game extension developed by Leseratte.
Max Lap Count Modifier	Geeh and MrEvil	A track can have anywhere between one and eight laps.
Max Weight Online	Bully	Everyone is at max weight to prevent overpowered bumping. This is not used in Time Trials Online.
Mega Clouds	_tZ	This makes you have Mega Mushroom effects when a Thunder Cloud strikes you. This only affects Random Items.
Mii Heads on Minimap	JoshuaMK	The player's Mii head will appear on the minimap instead of their character's icon, excluding CPUs.
Music Only My Stuff Folder	Unknown (found in SRCP, probably sadai)	A type of My Stuff folder that only uses the music files that may be put in the CTGP Revolution My Stuff folder.
My Stuff Folder	MrBean35000vr, Chadderz	Allows users to replace certain files with their own, allowing for custom textures, among other things. This distribution has its own My Stuff folder, along with the option for the CTGP Revolution My Stuff folder.
Never Burn Out	JoshuaMK	Whenever you start your engines too soon, this code will make it so that you start normally as if you did not use your start up boost at all.
Never Pickup Certain Item From Box	Vega	This code will zero out a desired item's probability for your current position. Therefore, it is impossible to ever receive that item from a box. The items blocked with this code are Bloopers, POWs, and Thunderclouds. This does not affect Random Items.
No Bullet Bill Icon	Anarion	When you use a Bullet Bill, the icon disappears so you can get an item while you are in a Bullet Bill. The disabling of wheelie bumping is also included, which is reduced to more of a tap.
Random Items	Star	This game mode will give you a random item from the roulette, not limited to the item probability of your current position.
Save game on SD Card	MrBean35000vr, Chadderz	Allows users to save their game on their SD Card, rather than the Wii's NAND.
Shortcut Mode	davidevgen, mdmwii	Custom mode that lets you drive on offroad without slowing down, drive through walls and barriers, and respawn instantly.
Speed Modifier!	MrBean35000vr	Tracks have a speed modifier applied (e.g. 2× speed) which causes all parts of the game's physics to move at the increased speed (including vehicles, items and boosts).
Speedometer	Chadderz	There is a speedometer in the lower right hand corner of the screen.
Time Trials Online	Melg	TTs Online is a custom game mode, following ideas by SwordofSeals and NMeade. The concept is to recreate the Time Trial experience online. You start races at the Time Trial position, with Triple Mushrooms. Collision and slipstreams are disabled.
Turning Sharpness Modifier	JoshuaMK	Increases the handling and drifting of all vehicles. This code also gets rid of the ballerina issue of other float modifiers, meaning you can turn infinitely sharp without becoming a spinning top.
Un-Beancorner	JoshuaMK	Not to be confused with the program, this code patches automatically any tracks that have Bean Corners on them.
