Wiimm's Custom Archive is a service (website https://ct.wiimm.de/) by Wiimm. It allows an easy access to custom tracks and arena archive. This article focuses at the distribution support of the website.


Introduction

Wiimm's Custom Archive[1] is a download archive for many thousands of custom track files as WBZ. It supports Custom Track Distributions too. A list of distributions is already available.

Features
  • A distribution info page will show some infos and also a cup and slot oriented track list. If the track is known, a popup and a link to the track is available.
  • Direct download of tracks.
  • A custom distribution list is part of the track details.
  • The search form supports custom track distributions. (not implemented yet)
  • Missing tracks of the active can easily detected.

To support a distribution, the user has to download Wiimms SZS Tools version ≥1.55a and to execute the command »wszst DISTRIBUTION« (or the short form »wszst dist«). The command scans the tracks and create (or edit) a custom tack definition file. The user has to edit the file and to upload it [2].
