PROJECT: Mariokart World PC
On 2025-07-19 at 08:08:02
MKWorld PC is a community project similar to MKPC Generations where members collaborate to recreate all of the Mariokart World tracks from the NS2.
At the time of posting this we only have 4 tracks confirmed, however many are currently being worked on by several members (at least 9 from memory). We may release each cup once all tracks within it are completed, however the full multicup will likely be released once all 32 tracks are done.
This topic will be used to notify the community about progress on the project, such as whenever tracks get accepted. Feel free to also use this topic for anything regarding the project, including submissions
(although be warned the standard is quite high).
For submissions, anyone is allowed to submit a track, even if it is already made (remakes must be faithful to the original MKWorld version). We will just decide which version is the better one.

/!\ Advent Calendar 2025
On 2025-12-26 at 00:18:43
Thank you and congratulations to everyone who participated in the calendar 
Once again for this year, I'll be giving my opinion on every challenge that appeared and why they were selected. Selecting challenges is much more difficult than people may realise since we need to ensure that anyone can beat it regardless of skill level (meaning RD is not required), and there aren't too many interesting challenges with minimal restrictions out there.
Some general comments I have are that this year's calendar was definitely the hardest one so far, so if you struggled that's perfectly fine. Although none of the challenges were necessarily out of reach and with enough commitment, they could all be beaten, it did require more skill compared to previous years, so hopefully people improved at the game. I would also like to thank the staff team who helped run the event, especially @Wargor, @Nodac64 and @TheNudgyHampter; without them the event would not be possible.
Day 1:
Continuing the trend of solid starting challenges, Mudky did a solid job of kicking off the event and the Galaxy reference was also a nice touch. Funnily enough, despite being the first day it was harder than a good chunk of the later challenges as the time limit was quite tight.
Day 2:
Also continuing the easiest challenge trend, this challenge was very simple and therefore easy. Once you know the location of Toadsworth, getting to him wasn't a problem. Probably one of the weaker challenges imo but that's to be expected when finding challenges for the earlier calendar.
Day 3:
Genuinely surprised people struggled on this one because there weren't that many possible places the ores could be. Some of them were hidden but with a keen eye they could be easily found. I suppose not as many people played Minecraft as first thought when selecting this, but I think the challenge is still fine for early event.
Day 4:
Awesome challenge... until you remove the actual challenge. Yea we missed the part where you could remove the decors so I was a little disappointed by it, but no real harm done I guess.
Day 5:
I'm a little surprised with how early this challenge came because I feel as if this one could get annoying quite quickly. This is one of those challenges where enough dedication will mean you beat the challenge, though maybe this one is still quite tight, and the hitboxes could be better (foreshadowing...).
Day 6:
Lowkey forgot this challenge existed. This one was definitely a better challenge if you're inexperienced with the game because for more advanced players this was a bit of a freebie. This was also the only QM challenge iirc.
Day 7:
Kernell makes good challenges so if you want to make your own, take notes from him. Collecting the coins while avoiding obstacles (and being Gamballs was awesome) is pretty cool, and given you had unlimited time there were many ways this challenge could be approached. Personally my 3rd favourite challenge this calendar.
Day 8:
Being my own challenge, I'll explain the thoughts behind me creating it rather than deciding whether this is good or bad. If it wasn't clear, I made this specifically for the early calendar since "easy" non-RD challenges are hard to find. I wanted to be unique about this and I was happy enough with the result, and I do think people appreciated this inclusion. Also thank you for actually not spoiling the answers like I requested, I didn't think people would actually listen like last year's CL3. Also, yes this was an excuse to include OSTs from a few of my favourite games.
Day 9:
Very weak challenge screwed over by unfortunate circumstances. The mushroom hitboxes were awful so we removed the time limit, but then the hitbox update came a day before (so on the 8th) that fixed the challenge. By then it was a bit too late to confirm how we could rework the challenge to make it better so we ended up with 3-ish minutes of mindless destruction. But hey, at least we got a really QoL good update for the game from this. Also, anyone who says they didn't kill that one toad is lying.
Day 10:
Day 4, but better. I also saw a few clever solutions to making the challenge easier, so any form of rewarding the player for their thinking is always a good bonus.
Day 11:
First rail challenge, so people definitely would've struggled on this one and it was quite expected. But I think this was a very solid challenge overall and a good way to learn how to use rails.
Day 12:
Your generic 'win the race' challenge so if people didn't like it, I'd rather be the one to cop the criticism. The gimmick of this challenge was clever item play, so hopefully it was enough to keep it interesting. Like Day 6, anyone with experience probably found this easier but clearly in the comments some newer players struggled and hopefully beating it was satisfying.
Day 13:
That game most people probably played as a kid but now put some MKPC tech into it. This is a solid challenge that required exploration and dedication, and the coins themselves were hidden well too.
Day 14:
This one is pretty straight forward and a good mid-calendar difficulty. I don't have much more to say about this one.
Day 15:
For those who saw a Day 15 challenge under my name with a fuck ton of obstacles and got PTS, yes this was a direct reference to Bro ate too much from last year. Apologies if you think I'm an asshole. This challenge was quite similar in concept, but this time you had no excuse because I gave you any stats and a much more generous time limit (which also happened to be 35s). Also, I still stand by that challenge being 'Difficult', just on the upper end.
Day 16:
Day 5 but snow themed, and supposedly harder. There are only so many unique challenges we can find (given hardly any people make them) so it was quite similar to previous destruction challenges but unfortunately there isn't much we can really do, especially given we have to find/make 24 total after the back of 3 previous calendars in a row.
Day 17:
Didn't think about it at first but I guess this is also similar to Bro ate too much and Chaotic Clock Cross in concept, though this one did play a bit differently since Fire Snakes are very different obstacles. I also wanted to have a challenge from BowserRace in the calendar since he's a pretty underrated creator imo, and he also provided us with 2 solid challenges last year.
Day 18:
People did struggle with this challenge, and maybe the criticism led to the challenge being deleted (we did revive it), but honestly this really wasn't bad at all if you approached it properly. The hitboxes still arent great but poor planning meant this challenge was hard. A hint was dropped in the comments and listening to it would make this so much easier, so a bit of problem solving and game knowledge was required, and probably the only case where Daisy's stats are objectively the worst in the game. There isn't always one way to beat a challenge, and this is a great example of it. One of the better challenges imo.
Day 19:
My 2nd favourite challenge of the event, and again there were several ways to approach this one. My own strategy was to collect coins from different rings at a time, which was quicker but less consistent. The time was quite tight, but this was the most rewarding completion for me, and I'm sure others had similar feelings once they beat it.
Day 20:
This one required the player to balance tricks, speed and lines, which I think is pretty cool. It's not easy to get a higher-end challenge suitable for everyone but we got a really nice one here.
Day 21:
Thanks to the hitbox update this challenge became good, though I did find this a bit too easy for my liking but it's fine. Better to be easier than atrociously annoying. The SM64 reference is a neat touch too.
Day 22:
We went into the calendar expecting this to be the hardest challenge, but I think it was still manageable. If you didn't like this one, 1. not too sure what you were expecting from late calendar and 2. you just gotta drill into your mind that you can beat it, because it was more of a mental challenge than a skill challenge. There were also 2 different ways you could beat this so depending on what you prefer, beating the challenge was slightly more accessible.
Day 23:
Since most people were expecting some sort of CL4, this was basically the final challenge before the big tradition. And how much more fitting could we get than including a Wargor challenge with the new rail update that came this year. And the challenge itself was awesome, my personal favourite. Keep cooking.
Day 24:
Great concept... and I'll leave it at that. After 24 hours of the challenge only Ahmad managed to beat the challenge without hints, and his solution wasn't completely correct either. The execution of this was unfortunately underwhelming because the directions weren't clear. I'll take some responsibility for this one as I should've offered to playtest the challenge beforehand, and also the fact that I just straight up told the staff that I didn't want to make the CL this year. I suppose if we look on the bright side, people came together on Christmas to help solve the challenge, which I do appreciate even if for the wrong reasons.

Can you still get the rank if you don't do the challenge on the day it appears?
Yes, you only have to beat all of the challenges. You'll also get a few days after Day 24 to do so.

What is going on I don't understand French. I have to use Google Translate but I don't trust it.
Actually, we say that we are fed up with a fairly young player who pretends to be an English speaker while he is French.
I haven't seen Desti do anything bad, he's not really a troublemaker.

Why do you always change the challenge difficulty to easy?
Most likely because the challenge is actually easy.
For example, I've seen some challenges recently that have a time limit of 1:30 requested as "difficult", but can be beaten in half of that without really trying. So of course we need to downgrade the difficulty.
On 2025-03-11 at 22:54:03
To be fair the current rules are pretty outdated and at times unclear so maybe I should work on a new set (that totally wasn't proposed several years ago).
On 2025-03-11 at 21:44:45
Now this is confusing. The validator said this exact feedback:
You're not allowed to make tracks on the same tracks as the Mario Kart PC multicup roster.
Track: Cheep Cheep Island R https://mkpc.malahieude.net/map.php?i=166549
This is confusing because the map was rotated, the music isn't the original, there are Goombas, there is custom music, and I'm not the only person who made the same track as the Mario Kart PC multicup roster! What's even more, it's the reverse variant!

Most likely the "R" wasn't seen by the validator, if you rebeat it I can fix it (challenges might be downgraded to medium difficulty).
Btw rotating the image doesn't count towards anything since the image is still technically the same, and the goombas and custom music are a bit debatable. It's mainly the R variant part that would let this slide.

The topic isn't for letting people know what challenges you have, it's about what challenges are allowed and if people have any questions around them.
thats not what i meant to do i was trying to get my challenge published cuz thats literally what the title is
You might not be aware of how the system works, but basically all pending challenges are put on a hidden log only validators have access to, so we can see it anyway.

Most likely a break or just busy with other stuff, tbh we've only got 1 really active validator atm.
We've also gotten a lot of challenges recently too, more than what we normally get. Yesterday when I got on there were 82 pending, I brought that down to 40 but it's back up to 57. I plan on doing a bit more soon but obviously I need to prioritise uni work.
Hope this helps.
Wait who is that really active validator called? Just wondering.
(Sorry if I am getting up in y'all's business, but I just wanna know, also thanks for responding to the previous message)
Nodac is, he's practically done like 90%+ of the challenges lately, so I think he deserves a break lol.
On 2025-02-25 at 01:52:31
Also, my 4 challenges have been in validation for like 5 days now, and I just put another challenge in validation, so I am wondering, what is happening? (Sorry if y'all are having a break off, but I just want an answer from one of the validators)

Thank you for contributing to this topic. Unfortunately, you did not complete the challenge of "following forum rules" so I cannot award you your 20 challenge points.

Out of all of the criteria for rejecting a challenge, "this is a stolen track" is not shown in the list. i already explained in the comments WHY I stole the track AND EVEN GAVE CREDIT IN THE DESCRIPTION
Sorry that was me, I should probably update the first post so that it's clearer. I started rejecting challenges on stolen tracks since it became an issue after the topic.
Even though your case doesn't seem like you stole it on purpose I'm still not sure if I should allow it just to keep things consistent. I'm also not entirely sure what you meant by being 'forced' to steal it. DM me if you'd like to ask anything else related to this tho.
On 2024-02-04 at 22:19:42
I created a challenge called "Unlucky Items" where you have to hit all the item boxes on the track "Larry's Scratchy Castle" in less than 13 seconds. This is rather tight, but by setting the number of CPU racers to 2, is manageable. However, the challenge was rejected for being "impossible". This is not the case as I have successfully completed the challenge in order to publish it.
EDIT: track link https://mkpc.malahieude.net/map.php?i=132286

I just checked what happened and in your case you just got unlucky because the items didn't load in for some reason. Nothing you didn't wrong and it seems fixed now 👍
On 2024-01-20 at 01:16:49
The topic was intended to clarify challenge rules and guidelines, not to show people any challenges you have. We can already see them when they are pending.
On 2023-10-06 at 00:50:31
I've made multiple Challenge this month and I've noticed 2 things:
- I make a Challenge, Publish it, and the next day it got Verified
- I make a Challenge, Publish it, and after a LONG LONG TIME it is still not verified, which is the case for some of my Challenges.
So what are the Challenge Validators doing? Like on the Discord I've seen 10-15 Challenge Validators but after a Month still nothing??? Also before you say anything like "ThEy HaVe A lIfE", think of the previous Situation of Max.

Um so I have like 3 challenges from sky garden that i have been waiting for somebody to send me a reply for months and it still has not been checked yet.
Sorry about that, the validators have also been a bit inactive, admittedly there's a lot pending. I'll try to have a look when I get on my computer again.
