Hi, I'm Melody, also known as MelodicCatgirl. I played Mario Kart Wii when I was younger, and started to get back into it in late 2022. I'm kind of new to modding and I'm currently trying to learn how to make my own things.
If you want to modify something I've made:
- You can update anything I've made so far without asking for permission, as long as the update is as an "alternate version" (like v1.0-alt instead of v1.1, or perhaps v1.0-yourdistribution).
- You can also make texture hacks, track edits, and remakes of anything I've made without asking for permission. This includes remaking or porting something I've made to another game.
- If it's a collab I did with someone else, I'm okay with it as long as the other author(s) is.
Below is a list of everything I've made so far, and also some of my thoughts about them which you might find moderately interesting.
all of my mods
Happy Mountain (GCN DK Mountain Texture): A simple texture hack of DK Mountain which makes the mountain happy instead of angry. I mostly made this because I thought it would be kind of funny, but it ended up being a bit cute as well.
SW Sky-High Sundae: A remake of Sky-High Sundae for April Fools. This remake is a joke, but it is also kind of making fun of Sky-High Sundae for being a literal oval. This was actually my first custom track as well, because I thought doing a simple joke track would be a good way to learn how some of the tools work.
Boring Desert Track: My second custom track. It was made for a CT Jam which I originally wasn't planning to participate in, but I thought of some interesting gameplay ideas kind of last minute and decided to go for it. I believe it was made in 4-5 hours, which I was really proud of considering my first track took multiple days to make and was considerably simpler than this. This track definitely has some issues, however, and I'm probably going to make a big update to this track at some point in the future.
Rainbmeow Road: Based on meow coruse, a Turbo Jam track made by Wixboy. Trying to make a decent track out of the word "meow" was actually a pretty fun challenge. One of the issues was that this track was actually pretty short, so my solution was to make players drive the entire track backwards, similar to Volcanic Valley. The other big issue was that I had no idea how to make the other parts of the letter m actually useful. This actually worked really nicely with the backwards idea, however, because it let me use one of the alternate paths as an ending.
Shy Guy Ship Battle: Track I made with Ricoxemani for the Super Circuit Sequels CT Jam. We thought of multiple ideas for this jam, but we went with an idea Rico came up with about making a track based on the pirate ship from the background of Shy Guy Beach. Rico did basically all of the modeling, and I did some of the more technical stuff, especially the KMP. I wanted to make it look like the ships were firing cannonballs at each other, which was actually pretty fun to figure out.
