Specifics
Tracks / Battle Arenas:
Track Lists
- Custom
- Texture Hacks / Edits
- Distributions
Each different type of track has its own page, which can be found on the right. Here are the details between the different types of track mods.
- A Custom Track is a course does not appear in any other game, be it Nintendo made or not. They are composed mainly of elements that the creators themselves have made, although pre-made elements can be used.
- For example, a custom track can take objects and course decorations from another game, but the main designing of the track is still custom.
- A Retro Track is a course that has been ported from another Mario Kart game, be it released before or after Double Dash!!.
- An Imported Track is a course / model that has been ported from any game outside of the Mario Kart franchise.
- A Texture Hacked Track is a course that has had its textures - and only its textures - changed from vanilla.
- A Track Edit is a course that has been modified from vanilla in other ways than just textures, but is still not a custom track.
- For example, collision edits or object model edits would be a track edit.
Characters (/ Karts / Items):
Character Lists
For characters, they are either custom characters or textured hacked characters. All are listed on the same page.
- A Custom Character is any character whose model is not already playable in Double Dash!!
- The reason that "retro" and "imported" characters are included in "custom" characters is because the different between them is negligible for characters.
- A Texture Hacked Character is any character whose model is vanilla to Double Dash!!, but has had its textures changed.
- All texture hacked characters must indicate that they are so on their own page.
- Because karts are closely linked with characters, they are listed on the same page as characters.
