The Variety Pack is a custom track distribution that features 112 custom tracks that range from difficult tracks to meme tracks (only features 32 tracks in the demo and [[Variety Pack Lite]]), to even some that are in [[CTGP]] hence the name variety. It's also got it's very own mode called Frantic mode. The pack is owned by [[Tombwarrior]] and is developed by [[User:Bladestorm227|Bladestorm227]], [[Skipper93653]], [[MrFib]], [https://www.twitch.tv/diamondm123 Diamond], [[JαmεςH]], [[User:AlphaFlame|AlphaFlame]] and [[Bearably]]. The Great Role Reversal is present in all modes except [[Mission Mode]].

The '''Variety Pack''' is a [[custom track distribution]] founded by [[Tombwarrior]] and is developed by [[Bladestorm227]], [[Skipper93653]], [[MrFib]], [https://www.twitch.tv/diamondm123 Diamond], [[JαmεςH]], [[User:AlphaFlame|AlphaFlame]], and [[Bear]]. It features 128 [[custom track]]s (32 in the demo and [[Variety Pack Lite]]), ranging from difficult to "meme"-like, to even some that are in [[CTGP Revolution]] (hence the name "variety"). The Great Role Reversal is present in all modes except [[Mission Mode]].

=== Frantic Mode ===
+
=== Chaotic Mode ===
−
From v1.0 &mdash; v1.2, Frantic Mode is a new mode that uses the [[ItemSlotTable.slt]] in every track's szs file from [[Electric Shredder]] meaning you can get any item in any place but power items have a higher chance of appearing.<br>
+
In v1.0 &ndash; v1.2, Chaotic Mode (previously known as Frantic Mode prior to v1.4) was introduced as a new mode that uses the [[ItemSlotTable.slt]] in every track's [[SZS]] file from [[Electric Shredder]]. This means that you can get any item in any position, but powerful items have a higher chance of appearing.
−
From v1.21 onwards, Frantic Mode got reworked so that it uses [[ItemSlot.bin]] in the [[Common.szs]]. However, the chances of getting any item is completely equal. But Thunder Clouds were removed entirely and you can no longer get the POW Block in 1st making it slightly more balanced.<br>

=== Blue Shell Showdown ===
 
=== Blue Shell Showdown ===
−
Since v1.3, a new mode called Blue Shell Showdown has been added which heavily increases the probability of blue shells being received from the item roulette while every other item has been revoked of it's probability or have been made for the lower positions only. As we don't want 1st place to receive a blue shell, the [[ItemSlot.bin]] has been modified to give first place dodge items such as mushrooms or stars which have obviously been balanced depending on their power. Like in normal gameplay, blue shells will only appear after 30 seconds into the race. There is, however, a side effect in this mode, on certain custom tracks, objects turn invisible but do keep their collision and the code used to increase the blue shell limit probably does this to reduce lag but this is only speculation (this was fixed in v1.31).

WARNING!
Mission Mode was an unfinished mode found in the game's code. However, due to the fact that it was replaced with competitions some time in development, any time you finish a mission it will upload the time to the Wiimmfi servers. All evidence points to rocket start missions causing this issue, which in Variety Pack's case is mission 1-1. Please do NOT play Mission Mode on a license that you use to do Wiimmfi competitions; otherwise, you will be banned.
Watch out for items in your My Stuff folder (if it's enabled), as Variety Pack does feature modified menus, text and Common.szs. If you find anything in your My Stuff folder that may disrupt gameplay and other things, remove the files or disable My Stuff entirely.

Overview

The Variety Pack is a custom track distribution founded by Tombwarrior and is developed by Bladestorm227, Skipper93653, MrFib, Diamond, JαmεςH, AlphaFlame, and Bear. It features 128 custom tracks (32 in the demo and Variety Pack Lite), ranging from difficult to "meme"-like, to even some that are in CTGP Revolution (hence the name "variety"). The Great Role Reversal is present in all modes except Mission Mode.

Chaotic Mode

In v1.0 – v1.2, Chaotic Mode (previously known as Frantic Mode prior to v1.4) was introduced as a new mode that uses the ItemSlotTable.slt in every track's SZS file from Electric Shredder. This means that you can get any item in any position, but powerful items have a higher chance of appearing.

From v1.21 onward, Chaotic Mode got reworked so that it uses ItemSlot.bin in the Common.szs file. However, the chances of getting any item is completely equal. Thunder Clouds were removed entirely and you can no longer get the POW Block in 1st place, making it slightly more balanced.

Blue Shell Showdown

Introduced in v1.3, a new mode called Blue Shell Showdown was added, which heavily increases the probability of Blue Shells being received from the item roulette, while every other item has been revoked of its probability or have been made for the lower positions only. The ItemSlot.bin file has been modified to give 1st place dodge items (such as Mushrooms or Stars), which have obviously been balanced depending on their power. Like in normal gameplay, Blue Shells will only appear after 30 seconds into the race.

Although it was fixed in v1.31, there was previously a side effect in this mode that caused objects on certain custom tracks to turn invisible, but still keeping their collision.

Track Request

If you would like to suggest a new track for v2.0, head to the track wishlist and add the track you would like to see, in v2.0, to the list.

If you want an existing track to be removed for v2.0, head to the removed tracks list and add the track to be removed.
