RKG Viewer is a program developed by Atlas that allows the preview of Mario Kart Wii RKG ghost files. It shows many information from the ghost data, like the character/vehicle combination used, the total time of the ghost (with its lap time splits), the Mii data and much more. It has also some functions, like extracting the Mii file, compressing/uncompressing ghosts and converting ghosts into staff ghosts. There is also a controller input viewer.

The program uses CTMKF font to show the Mii names. However, this may not work in all computers. If it doesn't work, try installing the font. You can also switch the font to normal (in the Utilities tab), but then it won't show the special symbols.

The program was released along with rksys.dat Extractor, by the same author, which allows the extraction of RKG files from the save data file rksys.dat. This is the author's biggest program project and it is also the one which took him more time to do.

Usage

Open or drag and drop a RKG file into the program. Most buttons have text tips when you leave the cursor over them, and they show some information or help.
