Features
Feature | Author | Information |
---|---|---|
Custom Save System | stebler | The rksys.dat format is replaced with a custom system that can support more than four licenses (for now, the UI can handle up to six) and additional settings. Ghosts are moved to separate files and everything is always unlocked. Riivolution’s redirect feature is used to store all files to the SD card (or equivalent) instead of the NAND. |
11-Way Multi-Ghost | stebler | It is possible to race against or watch up to 11 ghosts at once. One can switch between ghosts during a replay (similar to a live view). The ghost selection UI has been accordingly remade from scratch. |
Tag Limit Increase | stebler | Up to 12 tags can be shown at once (from three in the vanilla game). |
Speedometer | stebler, Syara | The player's speed is shown in the HUD, including moving road and moving water. Splitscreen is supported. The “SPEED” label has been translated into four languages. |
Additional Ghost Metadata | stebler, Chadderz, MrBean35000vr, CLF78 | The track's SHA1, whether 200cc is enabled, more precise finish times and detected glitches are saved at the end of the ghost file. The first two properties are used to only show ghosts for the correct track and engine class. The equivalent fields can be read from CTGP ghosts for the same purpose. The SHA1 computation does not take _Dif files into account, allowing for custom textures. |
Pause Menu Improvements | stebler, Riidefi | Additional buttons have been added to the pause menus, notably one to change the settings and another to go back directly to the ghost selection. |
Translations | stebler, MK Translation Project | All languages (plus Dutch) are supported in all versions of the game. Some of the MKW-SP-specific strings are also translated. |
My Stuff Folder | stebler | Allows for file replacements such as custom tracks, custom music and so on. For tracks and UI files, it is possible to replace only certain U8 subfiles by adding the _Dif suffix to the archive name (e.g. koopa_course_Dif.szs or MenuSingle_E_Dif.szs). |
Automatic BRSAR Patching | Elias_ | The revo_kart.brsar file will now be automatically patched to prevent music from cutting off mid-race. |
Rear View In Replay | stebler | In ghost replay mode, cinematic view is replaced by rear view. |
Hide HUD Labels | stebler | License setting. The TIME, LAP and SPEED HUD labels are hidden. |
4:3 FOV in 16:9 | Brandondorf9999 | License setting. The wider 4:3 field-of-view is used in 16:9 mode |
Mii Heads On Minimap | stebler | License setting. For local players and ghosts, the Mii replaces the character as minimap icon. |
Instant Menu Transitions | Riidefi | License setting. This allows for much faster navigation. |
Input Display | Riidefi | License setting. The controller inputs are shown in the HUD. Splitscreen and 200cc are supported. |
200cc | MrBean35000vr | VS and Time Trial rule. A speed class with a 1.5× speed modifier, brake drifting and fast falling. |
Ghost Sorting | stebler | Time Trial rule. In the selection UI and in-race, ghosts can be sorted by finish time or by creation date. |
Ghost Tag Visibility | stebler | Time Trial rule. Ghost tags can be shown for all, focused only or no ghost. |
Ghost Tag Content | stebler | Time Trial rule. Ghost tags can be either the Mii name, finish time or creation date. |
Solid Ghosts | stebler | Time Trial rule. Transparency can be disabled for all, focused only or no ghost. |
Ghost Sound | stebler | Time trial rule. Sound can be enabled for all, focused only or no ghost |

Known Bugs
- Ghost solidity is off by one frame when switching. See issue 44.
- VS and Battle settings are not saved. See issue 50.
- Most Gecko codes will not work because of the different memory map. A warning is shown on the title screen if they are enabled. When memory protection is implemented, support will be dropped altogether.
