History

As of April 2017, I am no longer actively participating in this community.

While this is an indefinite/likely non-returnable hiatus, I am currently collaborating with another author to update my release library.

Projects - Released

Jungle Island

My first custom track was Jungle Island, released on 1st of January, 2012.

It was created entirely with no design, but drew inspiration from Fishdom Island for its appearance and features.

This is my only non-port custom track to date.

v2

In mid 2019, a remastered version began production as a collaborative effort with another author.

SM64 Bob-omb Battlefield

My second custom track was a of port Bob-omb Battlefield from Super Mario 64. Originally named SM64DS Bob-omb Battlefield, it was first released on the 16th of February, 2012.

A remake was made in the July of 2012, changing the course's layout and name to SM64 Bob-omb Battlefield.

A third remake was considered in 2017, but did not occur.

GBA Snow Land

My third custom track, GBA Snow Land made in Google SketchUp.

A remake using advanced modeling tools neared cosmetic completion, but did not make it to the track building portion of production. This was due to the higher standard set for Mode 7 track remakes introduced in Mario Kart 8.

DS Shroom Ridge

My fourth custom track, DS Shroom Ridge, released on the 6th of October, 2012.

v2

In late 2019, development of a graphically updated version began as a part of an ongoing collaboration.

GP Mario Beach

Initially released on 31st December, 2012.

My fifth and most recent custom track, GP Mario Beach. The first port ever from from the Mario Kart GP series, as well as the first from a non-home console. It was created as a collabortive effort with DJ Lowgey, who provided the course assets.

v2

In 2016, work on a remake (v2) began, but in time all known builds were lost. However, on the 16th of February, 2018, a relatively complete build was discovered and posted, with plans to potentially update it in the future.

Projects - Upcoming

Jungle Island remake
DS Shroom Ridge v2

Other

As a part of an ongoing collaboration, a variety of other unreleased or previously-abandoned projects are being considered for update and release.

-SuperMario64DS is a ''(Now retired)'' member of the Mario Kart Wii hacking community whom often attempted to create a wide variety of unique ports, as well as original tracks from time to time.
 == History ==
-I first discovered the existence of custom tracks in 2011 after coming across a video of [[MKDasher]]'s port of ''[[GCN Daisy Cruiser]]''. Several weeks later, I 'hacked' my Wii via '''BatHax'''.
+'''As of April 2017, I am no longer actively participating in this community.'''
-That March, I signed for [[MarioKartWii.com]], then considered the 'hub' for custom tracks. At the time, the release of [[CTools]] was literally days away and [[Custom Mario Kart]] had just opened - I arrived at literally the most convenient time possible.
+While this is an indefinite/likely non-returnable hiatus, I am currently collaborating with another author to update my release library.
-After several 'hiccups' of notable proportions, [[Jungle Island]] was finally released the very next year. I later went on to create much more sucessful tracks such as [[DS Shroom Ridge]], and, most notably, [[GP Mario Beach]].

-=== Other 'mods' ===
-==== [[Sonic the Hedgehog (on vehicle)|Sonic The Hedgehog]] ====

-== Other ==
+My second custom track was a of port Bob-omb Battlefield from Super Mario 64. Originally named ''SM64DS Bob-omb Battlefield'', it was first released on the 16th of February, 2012.
-* ''None''
+A remake was made in the July of 2012, changing the course's layout and name to ''SM64 Bob-omb Battlefield''.
-== In progress ==
+A third remake was considered in 2017, but did not occur.
-* No longer making custom tracks for [[Mario Kart Wii]].
+==== [[GBA Snow Land (SuperMario64DS)|GBA Snow Land]] ====
-== Unreleased ==
+My third custom track, [[GBA Snow Land]] made in Google SketchUp.
-Secondary versions of [[GBA Snow Land]] and [[Jungle Island]] had begun development, but at the time I have plans to continue making custom tracks.
+A remake using advanced modeling tools neared cosmetic completion, but did not make it to the track building portion of production. This was due to the higher standard set for Mode 7 track remakes introduced in [[Mario Kart 8]].
-A track themed after '''Tropical Resort''' from ''Sonic Colours'' was also in progress, but was dropped in favour of [[GP Mario Beach]]. Practically since I first joined the community, I had wished to make a custom track out of '''Bianco Hills''' from ''Super Mario Sunshine'' - Development on such a project did begin, but did not continue. Similarly, several attempts to make a track out of '''Delfino Plaza''' also failed.
+==== [[DS Shroom Ridge (SuperMario64DS)|DS Shroom Ridge]] ====
-Additionally, a port of the character '''Blinky''' from [[Mario Kart Arcade GP]] had begun development and had been fully finalized. Unfortunately, in addition to the fact that the vehicle models for the character had not been retextured, at this point in time the files related to the character no longer exist.
+My fourth custom track, [[DS Shroom Ridge (SuperMario64DS)|DS Shroom Ridge]], released on the 6th of October, 2012.
-=== Plans ===
+===== v2 =====
-As for planned projects or ideas that made very little progress:
+In late 2019, development of a graphically updated version began as a part of an ongoing collaboration.
-* '''DS rainbow Road''' - A planned collaboration with [[Tock]] (With slight help from [[Gericom]]). '''Tock''' went onto post a concept video track, and no further development occurred.
+==== [[GP Mario Beach]] ====
-* '''GP Mario Highway''' Scrapped due to the fact that [[GP Mario Beach]] essentially nullified the it's purpose.
-* '''GP Rainbow Coaster''' - A planned collaboration with [[DJ Lowgey]], who unfortunately ceased all communications.
-* '''N64 Luigi Raceway''' - A collaboration with [[Captain Kwark]], who vanished from the community without word. In development until [[ZillaSpaz]] released his version.
-* '''GBA Yoshi Desert''' - Began development alongside [[GBA Snow Land]], but didn't make much progress.
-== Conclusion ==
+Initially released on 31st December, 2012.
-I've since moved on from creating custom tracks to pursue other endeavours, but I am nonetheless grateful to worked alongside some pretty amazing people and begin learning subjects related to animation and 3d modeling. I hope all of that sticks with me forever.
+My fifth and most recent custom track, [[GP Mario Beach]]. The first port ever from from the Mario Kart GP series, as well as the first from a non-home console. It was created as a collabortive effort with [[DJ Lowgey]], who provided the course assets.
-=== Thanks to... ===
+===== v2 =====
-Absolutely not dramatic! More or less a way to express my gratitude for you all.
+In 2016, work on a remake (v2) began, but in time all known builds were lost. However, on the 16th of February, 2018, a relatively complete build was discovered and posted, with plans to potentially update it in the future.
-* [[BigOto]] - Taught me just what I needed to know, a fantastic person whom I wish the best to.
+=== Projects - Upcoming ===
-* Frax/Fraz - A good friend when things were tough!
-* [[WorldsBoss]] - One of the people who kept me motivated to finish most of my work near the end, a very fantastic guy.
-* [[ZillaSpaz]] - Also a great guy, it was a pleasure speaking to and getting to know him.
-* [[HelloImYourMind]] - Exactly as I said above in regards to Zilla - It was apleasure getting to now him.
-* [[Baoulettes]] - Taught me a lot when the modern age of [[BrawlBox]] rolled over.
-* [[Torran]] - ...Also taught me a ''lot'' when the [[BrawlBox]] became available. Quite sarcastic <small>(understatement)</small>, but still a very intelligent and kind person.
-* [[Tock]] - He was rude enough to motivate to try harder..? But really, in the end I found him to be a fantastic person.
-As for the rest of you, know that each of you impacted my experience in some way. The cliche "Thanks to Chadderz/Bean" statement is also implied - No need to express how important the two were here. I apologize if I've forgotten anyone.
+* [[Jungle Island]] remake
+* [[DS Shroom Ridge (SuperMario64DS)|DS Shroom Ridge]] v2
-=== The Grand Secret ===
+==== Other ====
-Finally, since I joined, I had been bombarded with rather ''personal'' questions, primarily my age. I was surprised to find that most guesses regarding my age weren't even close.
+As a part of an ongoing collaboration, a variety of other unreleased or previously-abandoned projects are being considered for update and release.
-I'll finally admit it:
+== Disclaimer ==
-This statement was posted in '''2014'''. I was born in '''1997'''. Therefore, I was '''17''' years old at the time of writing (Not 35, Torran), which, shockingly, made me only '''12''' when I first discovered custom tracks. I as certainly among the younger crowd throughout the time which Custom Track creation was really "booming". Time flies!
+Please note that I do not claim copyright to models, textures, or other assets distributed or owned by Nintendo.
-I denied everyone this information for years, even providing false dates of birth on occasion. Now you have it.
+I do claim copyright to original assets and data, modifications, and other derivative works - these are not owned by Nintendo.
-Until next time!
