Hey everyone I'm Tara, I'm a CT creator that released my first custom track Polychrome Path on April 10th 2023. But with all that said, I hope you have a wonderful day! With my lovely cute sweetie pie Flair <3

Important notices

There are some important things to let you know about.

  • I have changed my name to Tara, my usernames on all platforms will change overtime.
  • As a result of the name change, Gracie Raceway will recieve one final update before a new track is released to signify the start of the 'Tara CT Era'.
  • The bug reporter forms have been discontinued. If you would like to report a bug, please contact me or leave a comment on the tracks CT showcase video.
  • Changes to the update system will be announced soon.

Current Projects

This section will explain what I will be releasing and updating, as well as any discontinued releases that won't get anymore support.

Custom Tracks

I mostly focus on new tracks as apposed to releasing retro tracks, however I also release some retro tracks too. These will be mainly SNES and GBA tracks as I intend on giving them similar treatment to the way Nintendo have done with GBA tracks for Tour. I have also released some joke tracks, that may not play the best but are entirely meant for a laugh! Some tracks are no longer supported and will receive no updates from me, the table below explains which tracks will be updated and which ones are now officially discontinued. Joke Tracks are discontinued upon release.

Bug Tracker

This section is dedicated to informing you about bugs that I am currently aware of and whether they have been fixed or not. If you would like to provide feedback on one of my tracks, or would like to report a bug, then please comment on the track's showcase video or contact me via a method above. I intend to leave most shortcuts that are not intended in, however ones that cause online play to be not enjoyable or are required to learn to perform online will be patched!

Update System

All of my releases are updated using a consistent update system. The update system follows a set pattern, these are in the format Release, Feature Update, Bug Fix Update for example, 1.4.2 or 2.5.21. Below is what each number represents, how frequent these updates are and some examples.

Release Number

This is exclusively for overhauls to the release, this number will rarely change.

  • Track design overhauls.
  • Visual overhauls.
  • Overhaul to music selection.

Feature Update Number

This is for smaller updates that make changes to releases that add, alter or remove features. These are more common than overhauls but do not change as much.

  • Texture change.
  • Small layout changes.
  • Changing one or two songs from the music selection.

Bug Fix Update Number

These updates are for bug fixes and hotfix updates, these typically are very common with multiple bug fixes in one update.

  • Fixing broken shortcuts based on feedback.
  • Fixing broken elements of a release.
  • Fixing loop points to BRSTM's

Permissions

Please feel free to include my tracks in any distribution, I only ask for credit in a tracklist or on it's wiki page. If you would like to update my tracks to fix bugs, then please follow along with the update system above. However for changes that take place in feature updates, then please ask for permission first. You may also port my tracks over to other games as long as I am credited as one of the authors or designer if it's a remake of one of my tracks and/or uses my models. You may use custom objects I have made too as long as I am credited.
