This is the anniversary edition of MKW-Fun. Exactly 10 years ago, on February 14, 2010, the very first distribution of MKW-Fun (MKW-Fun 2010-02) was published by Wiimm in collaboration with Jillian. At that time they had to swap the tracks in manual and painstaking work with WiiScrubber. Since Wiimm definitely didn't want to do that again, he started to implement the creation of the images in WIT tools.
At that time there were 10 arenas plus 32 tracks. Due to the lack of custom tracks, there were many texture and model hacks. MKW-Fun 2020-02, on the other hand, contains 10 battle arenas plus 32 original tracks plus 347 custom tracks, which are divided into 2 Battle Cups and 96 Racing Cups. Compared to the predecessor MKW-Fun 2019-10, there are 24 new tracks and 28 updates. 5 tracks are removed.
There are also some new features in LE-CODE: For example, Goombas are restored to scaled size after hit and the position tracker is hidden in some parts of the race. In addition, there are other new features that are very interesting for track creators. One of them is the enlargement of the effective range of items in the online game, so that »The Plain of Atlantis« is included.
The next MKW-Fun will appear on June 18th. On this day, Wiimmfi runs exactly 2231 days. And that is exactly the number of days with which the original MKWii could be played on the original Nintendo/Gamespy server. So another anniversary!
