Darkaiser | Crash Team Racing - Character Randomization @Darkaiser | Uploaded December 2020 | Updated October 2024, 10 hours ago.
Our latest CTR bootloader mod makes the original feel a little more like Nitro Fueled, by adding character randomization.

Just like the previous video, run the rom in an emulator, swap the disc to retail CTR, press Circle, and play.
All 8 characters will be completely random every time you play, and yes, Oxide can load on any track. The Driver pool could not be cut in half since we need 8 drivers, but the Instance and Thread pools could still be divided.
This needs some tweaking, if the game crashes without a red screen, then the pools need to be larger. If the game crashes with a red screen, the pools need to be smaller.
This is all progress towards Oxide being fully playable with the default 2mb RAM, without needing 8mb expansion.

Special characters in Adventure mode, character randomization, custom cups, debug frustum, and graphics upgrade, all running at the same time, all built into the rom with our one-click tool to build and install without hassle.
ModSDKv3 makes it easier than ever to combine mods together. Some are compatible by default, some require the address table to be adjusted (simple .txt file) so that each mod has their own place in memory, and some require the C/C++ to be edited slightly for compatibility.
Every mod in our library is importing code from other mods, this completely eliminates redundancy in previous releases. For example, every mod automatically imports a libcrypt patch when a PAL build is detected, and if a Japan build is detected then the anti-modchip code is disabled, etc.
For this video, zero C/C++ had to be written to combine these five mods, and the address table only had to be mildly adjusted, so that the mods didnt overwrite each other.
There is no possible way for every mod to be 100% compatible with each other, nor is it possible to automatically combine all 30 mods into one, but with some basic C/C++ editing and some adjusting in the address table, hundreds of different combinations can be made. Programmers are determined to design each mod, specifically, to make combining is as easy as possible.
Full package gets published to GitHub in July. Stay tuned for more.")

The github repository has to wait due to rewriting the tools again, but this public beta has all the source code to every mod ever written, with the most user-friendly directions yet, allowing mods to be installed easily into any version of CTR that we support.
Note: Python 3 is required. More details in the tutorial section.
This video shows a very-early level editor, to show that level editing can be done. There is enough research to do a lot, but it still needs more work until we can make a fully-functional level editor that exports from Maya or Blender.
Since recording, some code was added to fix a speed-glitch on the rainbow ramp, by editing the last bytes in the quadblock. Its not entirely sure how these bytes work, so still researching. Also when using hot-reload, choose Inject 2mb in the tool, which was renamed after recording.
This package also includes more mods that have never been showcased. Have fun exploring.")
![Crash Team Racing (Aug 5, 1999 prototype) - Track Exploration [Part 3]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/qpW8mC1iUUw/hqdefault.jpg "Crash Team Racing (Aug 5, 1999 prototype) - Track Exploration [Part 3]
This is the fifth preview video of the prototype of Crash Team Racing (PS1).
This gameplay is from the August 5th 1999, a beta version of the game built a month and a half before the final NTSC build date of September 24th 1999. This build is dongle protected, which means you cant play via normal means, so attempting to run it will result in a black screen. Were solving this problem, so it will eventually be released to the public. Dont ask for a release date because even we dont know and were also busy with other stuff, so please be patient and enjoy the videos.
A full documentation of the differences will be available at The Cutting Room Floor article, and a download link will be posted on Hidden Palace website. At the time, both pages are being worked on.
A HUGE thanks to almarkowbender, gdias/Darkaiser (me), Gh0stBlade, let-over-lambda, mementomori/madmarsrocks, Niko, and psx-collector for making this release possible.")
