@Kevo981 Very interesting. your position incorrectly flipped to third when the guy in first started to lag and the game never corrected it

THIS GAME IS HEAVILY BUGGED! The game gives me golden mushroom and triple mushrooms in 1st place because it thinks I'm 2nd and the 1st is in Narnia, when in reality I'm 1st when I hit the item box

@B_squo Sad it doesn't contain a symbol map 😓

A Mario Kart Wii japanese Kiosk demo has been found! This demo comes from a Wii U kiosk unit disk image (more specifically, from slack data from a WIS-009 hard drive dump, along other Wii kiosk demos). You can watch gameplay of this version here: youtube.com/watch?v=PVxjQi…

@zKn127 Download: drive.google.com/file/d/1QoVWVZ… Source: github.com/henrymkw/mkw-s… Feel free to message me if you’re not sure how to install or if it doesn’t work for your controller.

@henrymkw when :/

Back in April after the MKWorld direct, I wanted to try to implement the rewind showcase (1:1 reenactment) in MKW and post it here. Well I implemented it, got busy, and forgot about it until world released. So I’ll just post it here since it looks cool

@zKn127 Maybe in a few hours, I have my computer again, thanks for the reminder

Mario Kart Wii appears to have a "penalty" system targeting players who disconnect too often from public online matches, similar to "For Glory Hell" in SSB4. When a player is penalised, they will have a harder time finding other players in public rooms. youtube.com/watch?v=az00JD…

@B_squo I was really wondering what that field and last query param was, really nice find!

@VikeMK @OpenAI @amazon lol that blows, I’m not familiar with scrapers but add a robots.txt to mkc? Also how do you know it’s Amazon and open ai?

Big thanks to @OpenAI @amazon for deciding to repeatedly scrape every single table image from the Mario Kart lounge site over and over incurring server egress costs of $80 in one month 😡. I hope you found all of the match results valuable for your AI models.

@Beanzard64 Brilliant

Checkmate

I should’ve put this here earlier but better late than never. all the changes I made for this were within the mkw-sp codebase, so check out the project here: mkw-sp.com

Thoughts on MKWorld: As a MKW player, my main issue with 8d is it never visibly seemed interesting mechanically which is unlike MKW. But world seems rich with mechanics, and I’ve noticed myself watching a lot of streams and playing a bit (currently busy so I can’t play that much)

@gabry0132 @liamswill_ It’s a fixed size circular buffer so it won’t run OOM, and pushing/popping is cheap. Trade off is that it will stop working after the # of frames grows past the fixed size. Each frame is 24 bytes iirc, I was able to use a size of 1000 with no problem, haven’t tested a larger size

@henrymkw @liamswill_ Sounds computationally expensive, could this work on original hardware in a race with no time limit?

@GIOMACGRILLIN (I have a bad habit of not pushing my git branches…)

@GIOMACGRILLIN Yes but unfortunately the computer I used to work on this is at college, I’ll push the source and upload this to a google drive when I can

@Zach8717 You posted this while I was typing up this exact answer for will haha

@henrymkw Vaguely how did you do this? Interested in the technical details, this is cool

@liamswill_ This is a modification of mkw-sp’s save states. Every frame after the save state button is pressed, the position, rotation, velocities, etc gets added to a list. And when the load button is held the list just gets unwinded each frame

@henrymkw how the FUCK did you do that

@blaze_118 Fuck you, I might like though ❤️

@bawpAUS Sad thing is that it wouldn’t be too hard, but since we need ctgp for security, it’s not likely
