MKW Hack Pack
Huili has just released his final beta for download. Some things to keep in mind:
This beta release IS NOT the same as the track listing below, not until version 1 is done. There are in total 8 folders with tracks in them, but not every folder will have 32 tracks in them because of certain track slots not being available. Also, the new full beta download is almost 4GB when extracted because it will have a folder in it called TEMP, which has ALL the beta tracks (with the exception of one), so you can test those out on your own, whereas the regular beta download (with the tracks) alone will be 1GB.
Also, this distribution is being tested by Huili in friend rooms only because of having multiple track folders in this beta version. So please DO NOT GO ON REGIONAL UNTIL V1 IS RELEASED, and don't ever go on worldwide. Why? Because you and someone else may not have the same tracks selected. Also, for this distribution, it's savefile data should be for the original friend roster exclusively for this distribution. This roster must be different from your CTGP friend roster or any other distribution.

Overview
This is Huili's third distribution, and by far his most ambitious Distribution ever. The MKW Hack Pack is the first Distribution to ever include both Custom tracks and Texture Hack tracks in them. This distribution will feature 184 Custom tracks and 64 Texture Hack tracks, with the expansion of main.dol. This distribution will also include many Custom Character hacks, items, Huili's music pack, backmodels, etc.
Huili's claim for fame for this distribution is the fact that there are little to no tracks from CTGP Revolution v1.03. If there are any tracks from that distribution they are texture versions of the original tracks. As for texture tracks, Huili choose to represent the community as a whole by letting there be 2 total texture tracks per person. That will help give exposure to otherwise undiscovered talent, and not just focus on one or two texture hackers, as has been the trend.

Game Features
Feature | Author | Information |
---|---|---|
Custom Menu System | Chadderz | This distribution is the first to make 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. When selected, these buttons cause the current on-screen cup buttons to be replaced with other cups, including custom cups, creating a scrolling menu system. All custom tracks are stored inside custom cups. |
Custom Tracks Worldwide | XeR | This distribution is capable of searching for random players to play custom tracks with. When running the pack, simply press the Regional/Continental button (which is renamed to Custom Tracks Worldwide) to search for custom track players. You can also join your friends who are playing CTWW, and they can join you. This feature is currently experimental, but seems to be working correctly. Credits to XeR for finding the required values to do this. |
Random Track Selection | Chadderz | When in CTWW mode, picking random will allow the game to select a custom track based on a number provided by the game's RNG system. It can also be triggered by pressing + or Start (depending on your 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 now, rather than just when you're about to run out of time. This can give you a better idea of how long you have to make a decision when voting. The time allocated is 30 seconds. |
WiFi Time Limit Expansion | Chadderz | This distribution makes a modification to the race time limit on WFC. It has been expanded from 5 minutes to 5:40, allowing longer tracks to be entered and played through to completion. The game has another hard limit of 5:56 before it disconnects everyone, so it is impractical to increase the time beyond 5:40, as the time advances even when looking at leaderboards. If 5:40 is reached, the pack forces you past the leaderboards quickly to avoid disconnection. |
Ghost Blocking | mdmwii | The game will not save ghosts at all in order to try to prevent save data corruption and accidental overwriting of ghosts. Personal leaderboards are also not updated. This feature is only temporary as future releases will support ghost data saving in a much more secure way. |
Draggable Blue Shells | MrBean35000vr | Blue Shells can now be held behind you like 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 | Wiimm and Leseratte | Support to play on a custom MKW server has been added as a replacement to Nintendo WFC. |
Minimap Colors | Wine and AC | There are many choices of the color of minimap. |
Save to SD Card options
Save to SD Card option | Description |
---|---|
Save Game for regular friend roster | This distribution, like any other, will have the save file for your regular friend roster, much like that in any other distribution. This save to sd card option may be used for matches in my region on ctww ONLY. Now for any other distribution it would stop there, but there's more! |
Save Game for Time Trials and Grand Prix | If the prospect of playing online does not have any appeal for some, Huili has made it possible to have another save to sd card option strictly for those who want to have the BKT or WR of any track in this distribution. This save to sd card option MUST NOT be used online. There will also not be any special tracks in this distribution for time trialers for now, unless Huili changes his mind. |
Save Game for whatever | Now with this save to sd card option, you can do whatever you want to. Add more people to your roster, go on time trials & grand prix, all on this one save to sd card option. |
RiiFS
Huili & George35000vr were discussing about having this server used in the distribution. After much deliberating, we both can to an agreement that Huili feels he wants to bring to this Wiki's attention. Huili would like to know if anyone would think we should use the RiiFS server on an inconsistent basis for switching up brstms packs.
