Features

Game Features
Feature	Author	Information
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. You can scroll through the cups with these buttons.
Custom Tracks Worldwide	XeR, Leseratte	This distribution is capable of searching for random players to play custom tracks with. When running the pack, simply press the Regional / Continental button to search for players. You can also join your friends who are playing Wiimms MKW Fun, and they can join you. This feature is currently experimental, but seems to be working correctly. Credits to XeR for finding the required values and to Leseratte for finding the battle value and fixing the friend list join bug.
Random Track Selection	Chadderz	Picking "Random" at the track selection screen will allow the game to select a random custom track. It can also be triggered by pressing +/Start (depending on the controller), and may be used offline to randomly select a track to play on.
Wi-Fi Timer	Chadderz	The countdown timer on the Wi-Fi voting screen is always shown. The time allocated is 30 seconds.
Wi-Fi Time Limit Expansion	Chadderz	This distribution makes a modification to the race time limit on Wi-Fi. It has been expanded from 5 minutes to 5:40, allowing longer tracks to be entered and played through to completion. Because the game disconnects you after 5:56, you get forced past the leaderboards quickly so you do not disconnect.
Draggable Blue Shells	MrBean35000vr	Blue Shells can now be held behind you like Green and Red 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.
Speedometer	Chadderz	There is a speedometer in the lower right hand corner of the screen. This only works in single player modes.
Wiimmfi-Support	Wiimm, Leseratte	Support to play on Wiimmfi has been added as a replacement to Nintendo WFC.
Versus points schema	Leseratte	The amount of points you get for winning an offline VS / online friend room VS race has been modified. The winner now gets 25 points.
Translation of track names	Wiimm	When creating the image, the user can choose to translate all track names or only Nintendo track names to his own language. Optionally, the tracks will be re-sorted according to their new names.
Integrated Gecko Code Handler	Wiimm, Leseratte	This distribution contains an integrated gecko code handler which allows us to use cheat codes to add new features to the game.
Lap & Speed Modifier	Geeh, MrEvil, MrBean35000vr	A track can have anywhere between 1 and 8 laps. 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). Wiimms MKW Fun is now able to use the Lap & Speed Modifier to modify the speed and laps for specific tracks.
Mushroom Glitch Fix	Leseratte	A patch for The Mushroom Glitch which only gives you mushrooms after 18 item boxes.
Thundercloud Shrink Time Modifier	MrBean35000vr, Leseratte	Thunderclouds shrink players in five seconds instead of 10.2.
New Random Modes	MrBean35000vr, Leseratte, Wiimm	A cup that is able to pick a random track via tags. Random: All Tracks Random: Original Tracks Random: Custom Tracks Random: New Tracks (since previous distribution)
Track Variants	MrBean35000vr, Leseratte, Wiimm	Adds variants of a track to a distributions. Is able to be picked with the New Random Modes named above.
Random Track Selection Bugfix	Leseratte	When Random is picked or time has run out online, the game now actually transmits ??? and does not trigger the CTGP Randomizer. It also fixes a friend room glitch which forced the player to vote random for the rest of the GP.
Engine Class Probability Modifier	MrBean35000vr, Leseratte	The probabilities for the engine classes have been modified to the following: 100cc - 10% 150cc - 60% Mirror - 30%
Room Stability Indicator	MrBean35000vr, Leseratte	The host of a friend room can see how many packets per 2-second-timespan are being forwarded to another player.
Change Character/Vehicle Combo Between Races	MrBean35000vr	You can change character and vehicle between online races.
GP Race Amount Modifier	Leseratte	A Grand Prix can now last 1-10 races by selecting its respective message. This only gets activated by the room host.
