Welcome to the official topic of the latest MKPC event, the Autumn Track Building Contest! Here you will find all of the information regarding the event. EVERYONE is welcome to participate, no matter your skill or experience, and you earn rewards for your participation.


You will need to create a COMPLETE MODE circuit based on the following theme:
Mushrooms
and then submit your creation on this topic. Your creation will be judged by the jury at the end of the tournament.

The creations must be ORIGINAL and made for this tournament (that means you can't steal another's creation or post an internet image). You are also allowed to submit up to 3 creations, however you will only receive points for your best creation.

Tracks will receive a score out of 20 from each jury member, and the winner is whoever has the highest score.


Gameplay
Layout (How interesting is the layout? Are there any shortcuts and/or alternate paths?) = /4
Design (Does the track have variety? Does it keep the player engaged?) = /3
Collisions (How well is the track programmed? eg. walls, checkpoints, off-road etc) = /2
Obstacles (Are obstacles used to make gameplay interesting? Is it a fair difficuly? eg. Goombas, Buses etc) = /2

Total for gameplay:  /11

Decoration

Visuals (How good does the track look? Is there effort put into it?) = /3
Theming (How creative/fitting is the use of the Mushrooms theme? Is it clever or a Mushroom Gorge ripoff?) = /2
Decoration (How well have MKPC decors and the image decorations been used? Have custom decors been used?) = /2
Music (Is it appropriate for the track? Is it good to listen to?) = /1
Background (Does the background fit the track? Is the outer colour appropriate?) = /1

Total for decoration:  /9

Total for all:  /20


Every track will receive points based on their score. Additional rewards will be awarded to the top 3 creations.
1st Place: 5000 VS points + a Discord 'TBC Winner' Role + the track will be highlighted on the home page for 2 weeks
2nd Place: 3000 VS points
3rd Place: 2000 VS points

The tournament ends on the 7th of December. Any submissions after that will not be counted.

Feel free to follow this topic if you are interested. If you have any questions, please ask them on this topic or in DMs. Good Luck!

This is getting a bit out of hand now, so I'm going to address a few things.


I've had to delete a few non-report messages, this isn't a place to chat nor farm messages. Only reports and appeals are meant to be here (and in light of recent events, people keeping this on topic). Might need to purge this topic for the 3rd time atm.

@USAfromPWA-wtih-luis stop cross reacting with messages that are correct, you seem to have zero common sense in general and haven't learnt from your warn.


No, the purpose of the official report topic is solely for reports. When people clog this topic up with garbage it makes moderation MUCH more annoying. LakituMaker is correct (and it's got nothing to do with 'taking a joke' ), but idm having fun on pretty much every other topic that exists here.

Updated the 2nd post, RD is not cheating.

Also lately I've had to delete a lot of non-report messages so 3rd reminder to stay on topic, though we had a good run.

Friendly reminder to keep this topic only for reports and to actually read the 2nd post on this topic about jumping in, I've had to delete quite a few messages.

Friendly reminder for people to use this topic only for reports and not for anything else. I've deleted a few unimportant messages but I've decided I'll leave some that I think are reasonable even if not actually a report. Although I probably won't do this anymore.

I'll also update the topic rules on the 2nd post for an issue I didn't think of before, but you are allowed to reply here if you want to contest a report you think is false or dumb (eg you've been reported for light swears). Although it should be obvious to contest reports only regarding yourself, no need to jump in for others. (We do have common sense anyway so it's likely you don't need to report, the x emoji should be enough).

Updated the 2nd post on the topic, please have a read. It just makes it a little easier to scroll through reports.

Please use this topic ONLY for reports, and where possible merge reports into 1 post. Any message that isn't a report will be deleted, this is not a place to increase your message count.

The only exception to this is if you think a report is unfair and you want to contest it, but you can only do this for yourself. Don't jump in for others.

Also, if there is already a report, there is no need to jump in on it and add another comment like "they also have a bad description" or "they also did this to me". We investigate these sorts of things already.

Btw for newer players, being much faster online is most likely Reverse Drifting or RD and not cheating so please don't report those. It is NOT cheating.

Wide Putin as Deco?

We're not doing SNES tracks since RHcks' SMKDX exists.

We've also got a GCN WC already, but even if we didn't the image quality in your version isn't enough for an accept (we've almost finished GCN btw).

The 3DS Tracks have just been released, go check them out

There have also been a few track changes.

Thanks for 60 rates

The DS Tracks have just been released, go check them out
(will update credits soon)

All of the track art must be original (i.e. drawn from scratch), not images from the games. We also have a Yoshi Circuit from Nudge.

The GBA Tracks have just been released, go check them out

MKPC Generations is a community project where members collaborate to recreate (almost) all of Nintendo's retro tracks, similar to the Mario Kart 8 project on the site. For over a year we've been collecting and creating tracks to put into one giant multicup, and now we finally have enough to release the project.

At the time of posting this all of the N64 and Wii tracks have been completed and are the only courses to feature for now, however the other MK games are not too far off from being completed. To keep quality, we've decided to update the multicup only when all tracks from each game.

The current version project features tracks from 15 different creators, and you can play the multicup here:
MKPC Generations

Feel free to use this topic for anything regarding the project

Frequently Asked Suggestions: (may be updated)

1. New Courses for the base game (eg. N64, GCN, Wii etc.)
Adding new courses takes a lot of effort to create, much more than the good custom tracks on the site. It's better to focus on more important updates such as bug fixes and optimisations. You can also just play the custom tracks that people worked hard to build anyway, such as the (currently WIP) community project MKPC Generations (go check out other creations too!).

2. More storage for Complete Mode
25MB is plenty, and the site won't be able to handle any more data. If you really want to save storage you can always use an image compressor (which may lower quality a tad) or an image hosting site such as FileGarden.

3. Nerf CPUs in Grand Prix Mode
GP mode is 150cc and the CPUs are set to 'Difficult' for those who didn't know. They will not be nerfed because with a bit of practice they are not that hard (except for maybe 2 cups but persistence will prevail).

4. Remove Reverse Drifting (RD)
RD is confirmed as an official technique and will never be removed (it is also neither hacking nor cheating).

5. Gliders
These are not a necessary addition, programming them will be difficult, and the existing ramps and cannons are fine. Like the first point there are more important updates too.

6. Ultra Mini Turbo/Purple Drift
The SMTs in the game are already strong enough. MKPC is also quite small scaled compared to the official MK games so they wouldn't work well anyway.

7. Extra and Diagonal Quick Mode Tiles
Diagonal tiles will not work with how QM functions. You might as well use CM at that point.

People have been making a lot of topics about suggestions for MKPC, so rather than having tens of the same topic it's better to just have 1 topic for everything.

Topic Rules: (just to keep things neat here)

1. Read the Frequently Asked Suggestions (FAS) in the post below, which lists common examples and explains why said suggestions won't be added to MKPC. Do not suggest anything within that post (might be updated in the future) or else the post will be deleted.

2. Merge suggestions into one post rather than making multiple posts for each suggestion. Just because the topic is about providing new ideas to make the site better doesn't mean you can message farm here. Also, please also refrain from sending every second or so message because this isn't the topic to be active in.

3. You aren't Wargor so don't act like these suggestions will be implemented just because you like them. No i-forgot behaviour allowed.

4. Stay on topic. This topic is only for suggestions and discussions around them so don't post any irrelevant messages.

5. Don't recreate this topic, otherwise it will be deleted.

6. Be clear with your suggestions. This isn't mandatory, however it is much more beneficial if you explain how your suggestion may be implemented and why it may be useful.

Ok,

Anyway, we nearly have 50k French ppl on MKPC.

Edit: We also have 2999 Germans too (at the time of this post)

I haven't seen Desti do anything bad, he's not really a troublemaker.
