#MK8

@bold delta is the deal with CEMU that connecting with CEMU causes slowdowns?
I’m just confused how that impacts framerate on Wii U
compiling shaders makes cemu lag
for short
the consoles have to sync with all players
but if one of them has slowdown
all of them slowdown
like a timer
nope
same on NN

although it is a lot rarer since cemu players aren't really connecting to NN
GG
Ah ok
So kinda what i was thinking, Nintendo’s server implementation sacrifices everyone’s game to let the slowest one catch up
i wish there was a no option on mk8 chat
I miss MKWii’s “Grr, darn it!”
yeah thats the idea
it makes sense

wee you
Back
welcome back ninjacheetah
welcome
true….

I’m really bad at MK8 200cc
*now
I’m very out of practice and have only done a little bit of MK8D 200cc recently
im more used to the wii u 200cc
It mean that now Mario kart mod are possible
My girlfriend vastly prefers Wii U to Switch and I kinda do now as well so I’ve played far more of it, buts it’s just been too long
(She’s always been far better than me tho to be clear)
you can do it on friend rooms i guess
oh yeah if you made a friend room you can voice chat with each other
on the console

i don't think we can really moderate that
Oh right
¯_(ツ)_/¯
Not like Nintendo really had any control over it either
Depends on the performance of the PC itself
Back to ww I go
2nd, let's go
Weird now I’m getting error 118-0519
Support code detected, press to expand information
thank you Bandwidth, I already saw the website doesn’t say anything about it
Ok, that's weird. I went second at the finish and the resilts showed last place. WTF is going on?
Anyone playing?
Look here : https://mario-kart-8.pretendo.network/
11 players online
Pretendo Mario Kart 8 website
Try the pretendo tourament there are a Lots of peopel
The other 5 are in the prentendo tourament

What-
Does the number of points in a tournament depend on how many people you defeat?
yep
depends of your position on each race
So if 3 players play and you place first, you will get less points than if I had 7 players and was first.
btw we can all do friend rooms and do voice chat with the gamepad's horrible mic XD
yep
theres 2 lobbies tho
so hopefully be lucky to join ours
oh nvm
1 lobby is a tournament one
the other one is the ww one
great got in
How can I distinguish ww lobys from tourament libyans?
check here
Pretendo Mario Kart 8 website
this page can tell you how many lobbies are from a tournament or a worldwide
its official from us

So if I see that correctly there are currently only ww lobys and nothing else
yep
and a friend room
Got a star exactly when shock came
😔
Imora do you know how i can see what's my pid?
hover over the player count
in a lobby
with your mouse
then you can see all of the pids that joined
damn these pretendo servers feel super speedy now. initially connecting from menu and joining lobbies literally takes like 1 second
atleast on cemu
yeah whats this about 
hey at least they can voice chat each other
real
what's that nex log thing, i assume it's on cemu
MOTHERFCK RED SHELLS
im boutta hop on
Anyone playing?
Anyone playing ?
The prentendo tourament
Or ww?
@hardy turret im playing
O.k 2 Player online but only 1 room with 1 Player
i'll add your pic to the website if you don't mind lmaooo

me too and no lag
GG whoever was unnamed
@trim maple we aren't in the same loby?
DLC 1 + 2
if i don't have the dlc i can't play with you?
I think
i don't have the dlc but i can play dlc track
GGs
go for it
gg
@serene jasper oh yeah glad to see you in the same country as me 
And the same city
oh yeah this ends at 12am
what happens when a lobby still exists though?
you know i should probably go ask rambo about it
Im here
Well the scores should stop registering but you can still play
Yeah
I’ll make an announcement with the final results and quick statistics
hey i managed to make it at least to top 20
XD
yeah but it was bugged
i wasen't aware i was still gaining points
no like seriously. the race count was bugged
so i was still able to somehow earn points
fair
it makes sense
probably it was leftover data from our previous testing which somehow managed to stay on the current tournament?
¯_(ツ)_/¯
i almost got it 😩
gg
@gritty knot hes the bob guy!
link discord to your account from the website
and u'll get your role soon

its cute
awww
I am online
Is anyone else having their game freeze
no
Yes i would like to try
im not good at battle mode on wii u but we can try
funny how both wii u and switch have entirely different battle modes..
it kinda of kept the exclusivity
I'm sorry but wii u battle arenas are bad..
how dare you insult the best battle arena in any Mario Kart game, GCN Sherbet Land Kappa
was the cemu players leaving crashing consoles fixed btw? or is it still apparent
nah not that
although im not sure if it will be fixed
like I remember when I used to leave lobbies and it would hard crash you guys
it depends of how good the cemu user's pc is
thats fixed
oh pog
👀
i tried but my reaction was super delayed lol
im kinda washed
havent played for a couple months lol
all im getting is communication error has occured
i joined 6 races i cud play only one
It feels a lot more stable
Hi I'm on Mario Kart 8 in WW for those who want to play
is this shit ded
Depends on time of day
Pretendo Mario Kart 8 website
I like that we have a page for this now, much easier to see if there's activity without having to hop in-game to check
I might play a little bit later online, I'm playing for the first time since the time trial ghost update and I want to get some times uploaded that I'm satisfied with
Anyone wanna play now?
yes
MK8 Communication error occured.
This happens when I joina game in worldwide. then say game is in spectating mode as soon as i enter spectating mode i can see all the different players and change my view with B. but, all the players are stiff and not moving at all like none of the players are moving. then after 1 minute it says connection error occured
similarly during race lakitu NEVER says 3 2 1 he just stands there for 1 minute and then error.
on cemu
Cemu version?
hop in wws guys 😀
Anyone playing ?
i'm in WW right now
How many players are there ?
3
Mm i dont find any ww room
Everyone join in worldwide
we are only 3
and the other 3 pklay in tourament#
Huh
maybe we can boundel the toursment and ww player , it would make sense
More players =more fun and it doesnt make sense to Split 8 players
I’ll switch to the tournament after this race
3 players worldwide 4 tourament
Which tournament is it?
i think it would be the best for all poepel to join wordwide
blue vs red but now ww is 5 popele and tourament 2 peopel
dang this lobby is big
i have this rn too lol
im still hoping for him to be on the booster course pass 
I got a modded switch so im good 
Hyped for the ctgp deluxe to release
they delayed it though..
till the end of wave 6
I know
I just figured out today that my switch isn't banned
My dumbass thought it was
makes sense
since the mod would break if a update comes out
¯_(ツ)_/¯
whyd you think that 💀
how did you pull that 8 💀 @bold delta
no idea 
my footage of the Pretendo tournament https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=40V9BerH2rI
this footage was recorded during a tournament hosted by Pretendo from 7/6 to 7/8 in which over 100 players participated
I think more people should join
theres a lobby up atm
if you're currently wondering
Because i didn't remember doing a emunand before installing game
isn’t that a 100% ban how’d you avoid that
big N be slacking
Hey Anthony and whoever else keeps waiting at the end with a shell, could you not please?
I'm assuming you're probably in this server
or slowing down just to hit us lol
sup everyone
Was his Mii earlier I think...?
yeah this guy isn't speedhacking but just being a dick
how can i play mk8 for free?
it is free
with beta i can play?

Playing in ww
Pretendo Mario Kart 8 website
You can always check if people are playing online through here now
since mario kart generations came out..
anyone interested for a friend room of that?
i still need to install the mod but it seems interesting
why not doing this like the people on #1070381730424438814 are doing splatoon 2 map mods XD
¯_(ツ)_/¯
the best modpack and the closest thing to a ctgp currently
Sure
it replaces normal stages
which is why we are doing friend rooms
lol
it should hopefully sync.. since its using the base game track slots..
if it causes any issues let me know
first of all ill need to add you..
you can send me a fr for the meantime 
installing the mod rn..
of course you will need the 2 dlc packs for this...
half way there through the install..
ikr.. its sad.. the eshop's shutdown means its impossible to get it legally..
i do own it from the eshop too..
its installed now
yep
keep the aoc folder there
since the track data for it is there
yeah
extract both folders

sdcafiine will also recognize it
yo wtf
the gold glider has a rainbow animation
👀
thanks lol
weird.. its working for me just fine..
It's a default location setting when setting up an account for Pretendo
I'm not from Florida but it says I am, not sure how to change it
ayyy
lmaooo
im kinda of surprised the mod even runs on console at all..
is this your pnid? "Sentaku"
ty
congrats on winning btw
remember to link your discord to your wii u id lol
@gritty knot i think you should be good to give him tester 
Link Discord to your account from the pretendo website
created a friend room
alr
uh yes
i already had the room open for a while
don't you mind enabling cpus?
ty
fuck
didin't put 150cc
whoops
lemme reopen it
alright try to join?
weird..
hopefully try again...?
Can I join?
its a friend room tho
thats odd
let me try restarting then..
okay i rebooted and recreated the room...
thats so weird..
you can try creating a room i guess
VOTE EXCITEBIKE
@limber rose long time no see! also forgot how fast you are lol

nice it does sync
thats really good
well it depends of the custom track
its also happening the same thing to me
ikr
does the cpu work normal in the custom tracks?
yep
fuck you guys for being better at the game than me
CHEESE LAND
YES
VOTE CHEESE LAND

whoopsie daisy
the family friendly rule yk?
Zyliqx

i don't think i can even join your worldwide unless i disable the mod
¯_(ツ)_/¯
Hi
lets give it a go
How r u
alright then
adding you in a bit
okie just lmk
oh great
friends softlock
ugh let me reboot
brb
its more easier to just force shutdown than waiting
So friend lobbies still have issues?
nope
Or is it the mod? 🤔
lmao some of these karts
added you @thin echo
did they overhaul stats aswell
okok
Alright
Don't have the time to setup for mod rooms atm, gunna head out pretty soon
i think we can join through mutuals
@bold delta ive accepted. hopefully I still dont get this cemu bug with joining friend rooms
theres a way round it but
couldve been fixed idk
do i create the room or...?
yeah go for it
rgb = more performance
weird...
usually id have to match with the player in a public lobby, then back to friends
What are you guys trying ?
its been a thing for a while with cemu
I'm starting mk8 now
im on console so im not sure if that affects anything
nah
How do you will get mod courses to work on cemu ?
generally just a connectivity bug
Is it just a host thing like a color mod ?
like I can join DJ's but not yours
thats so odd..
Maybe there is a manual somewhere

@bold delta are you EU? because we could join a regional real quick, get in lobby then back out
that will fix it
I wish I could play MK8 rn
i don't think regionals work
they just redirect you to a ww lobby instead?
But im not used to playing in the gamepad anymore
Oh okay maybe i find a Manuel for that , what is the name of the Mode
was only suggesting that since we wouldnt join the ongoing game
But you are not allowed to play Mods ww
thats the issue
Only in friends room
O.k
Mod doesnt seem to work for me
wait I can see Bob's friend room now
try again then?
interesting
yeah
lemme try and open one
it works for me on console
I wonder if cemu sync the room hosted or closed
I probably did something wrong in sd directory
probably
hosting now. I imagine you can't see

ah damn
150 or 200 @bold delta
200cc
In splatton you must Restart cemu to regonize a new friend room but i dont know about mario kart 8
sure
I know that for splatoon lols
I'm not even used to 150cc yet 😭😭
im in the full rgb build lol
I'm trying again now to see if it works
i think you can join while we are playing in a friend room
so many choices
ah dc


Okay it's working now i had wrong title id
yeah i have a few disc read errors on the disc..
im still not sure why its happening..
edited the mii dat file
souke are you already in room?
copied stuff from my real acc
had to kinda of patch it by running the files on the SD instead..
Mm cant find any Manuel for install
I can't see that you're playing
Wait where is that ?
from the sdcafiine plugin's github
managed to join
hopefully no disc errors...?
Still don't see it
Thanks dont seem like works on cemu
Maybe i need host as friend
i joined through you
Or its more complicatet
nice starting point
ikr that was so short
did you dc? @broken belfry
@thin echo can you Tel me how you installed that Mod on cemu ?
Yeah i still can't
moved the folder into graphics packs
then just enable it
I think i need the host as friend
im surprised halfpipes kinda of work in this version
also that blue shell went under me @bold delta on the jump

lmao
Oh thats realy easy
guess it isnt configured correctly
ya like this
Who's hosting?
because they were meant for 200cc
¯_(ツ)_/¯
true
iPixzl can you maybe accept my friend request after a few races?
omg yoshi falls
yeah sure
Okay now I have problem with the website I must find this damn download button yet.
after this one
near bottom google drive link
Found it thanks
or some not even meant for 200cc at all...
yea this thing is taking 5 years to download all bc i dont have an sd card slot on my laptop lol
ikr
ggs
gg
gonna add Zyliqx now
alright
so gonna have to restart
since cemu cant open friends at same time
@deep oxide accepted
It can just open a new cemu and then friend list in that
true but it doesnt update friends list in game
hosting another if anyone wants in
also maybe we should try 150
yeah
Yeah thats true
lets do 150cc
@deep oxide you joining?
i would prefer more control over speed so im going with a different combo
specially with theses cts
Yes hold on
Can you change your cart combo in mario kart 8 friend room without leaving the room just like splatoon ?
i could later
You can already start btw. Mario Kart 8 keeps freezing for me
wait actually are you guys in a fr doing it rn?
yep
if it takes long to load for me its due to the sd and disc being read at the same time..
im downloading rn about 1/3
im trying to add you but the friends list really loves putting ??? for everybody as soon as I launch it
just sent a fr
Got it finally working
wooo
don't pick that track please
which one
it seems that causes me a disc read error
@bold delta which course sorry
fruity folly
alright
Oh my bad
LSD textures at the end there
Imora you know what ctgp-c was right
yeah
Do you think this mod is better than ctgp-c?
@bold delta can you add me back
could feel the lag on that one
will leave the lobby in a moment
k ty
i hate wiiu discs, it's like they want to die
will start a new one with you
@deep oxide were you compiling or dropping below 60 on some of those tracks?
was getting slight slowdowns, nothing too bad
No don't think so
added..
hmm ok
like it was still playable
nothing like those public lobbies before
kids trying to run cemu on chromebooks lol
huh...
same thing I was getting with Imora hosting
You need host as friend i guess🤷♂️
wait maybe actually
are you the host? sent you a fr
should be able to just open another cemu window
reopened
i can do that but it doesnt update the mk8 friendlist in realtime unless i restart
which may cause issues
ah ok
is there mkwii inside drift or is it still hybrid

i took some screenshots while we were on races with cts before

yeah its kinda of akward
i don't have a capture card or anything

plugin
i mean i took them mid match
with a plugin
you can set it to take a screenshot with any button you want
or a combo
on top of the plugin, there is also the option of having a capture card
ok finally got mk8 generations working omg
wtf thats so many people
ohhh i see how demon sliding works... 
Demon Sliding allows you to preserve your desync speed you get from fire hops
that's what it is in a nutshell
i'm more out of the loop of mk tech then i thought
because ion know what fire hops are either lol
i assume gaining speed by hopping while using fireball..?
only on outward drifting vehicles
you hop to the left or right and then the exact opposite as soon as you land
you can usually do 2 hops in a blue mt and 4 in orange
oh you flick?
exact opposite as in, hop the the opposite direction
right when you touch the ground
and then you demon slide after that until you can pull of another firehop
i assumed since i ususally play that
although i never knew about it to begin with
Fire Hopping, to be more specific, is when you land on the ground slightly sideways (most often done by just hopping and turning the car mid-air), while also in a boost of some kind, whether it's a miniturbo, trick boost, or shroom boost
You start to gain extra speed once you land with said boost. This was patched in Deluxe
This boost you get from firehopping is what I call "Desync" speed. This desync speed will quickly fade away under most circumstances, except if you're demon sliding, which drastically slows the rate of which this happens.
Demon sliding is pointless if you don't have desync speed to preserve after a firehop
unless you're doing demon sliding on certain downhill sections due to how gravity works, but this goes into a bit more of the nitty gritty tech of this version of the game
And again, this is all patched out in Deluxe, though technically desync speed still exists in Deluxe, but it's hard capped
oo i see i see ty omg
ill have to practice thiss
Feel free to ask questions about it, resources on how all this stuff actually works is basically non-existent now that anything you search MK8 related is 99.9% Deluxe
But for firehopping, the best way to start is just to hop alternately left and right during any kind of boost while going on a straight.
What's the optimal combo for mk8
There's a lot that goes into when you should and shouldn't be firehopping, and what type of sequence you should use, but starting with the basics like I described would be a good starting point
This is my own personal tier list for online play
anything that shares the same box share the same stats
And for characters, max weight is typically the best in all situations
What about characters?
^
Max Weight refers to Bowser, Morton, Heavy Mii, Wario, and Dry Bowser
Someone is playing now?
At the moment, no

Mario Kart Generations received an update today
Hello Everyone, UNREALII- Speaking. i would love to announce that Version 1.2 of MKG is coming out TODAY. and i want to thank everyone for the support. i love you guys.
oh nice
now i have to redownload it all over again 
ooooh
custom characters 👀
YO BOWSER BIKE
I CAN ACTUALLY GO FUNKY KONG BOWSER BIKE NOW
anyone wanna play?
yeah i can play now
i literally just downloaded it yesterday im not redownloading it again 😭
im opening a public room
same but i have to
im doing it 
i should only need to do the course and mapobj i think
im here
Alright i'm joining
@primal briar i'm going to eat right now
Anyone wanna play MK8?
yeah
yea it does lol
in like an hour or somethin
anyone want to play mk8 for the meantime while mk8dx is down for maintinence?
i don't own the DLC on switch so i don't really have anything better to do 
sure
@bold delta where u at
nvm
did a combo based on the tier list, still feel slow though
yo
testing on me new laptop I impulse bought 
specs
now
pls
The combo itself won't win you races
The actual most important thing is learning the driving tech
You can be on the worst build in the game and still be faster than someone who's using the best build in the game just by using at least the basic level tech in the game
Racing lines are good too of course

i just never got comfortable with drifting
i feel like i can make a line, but then i dont just because i either drifted too wide or tried to drift to short
im not amazing at mk7, but in drifting it is a noticable difference for me
If you can get good at:
-Soft Drifting
-Basic Firehopping
-Keeping good racing lines
-Minimize steering outside of a drift (if you need to steer, just do a very short drift). Steering while going straight drastically reduces speed.
-Be thoughtful with your item usage.
Then you can probably start getting better results
It's not super high level at that point, but it'll be a good starting ground
we need a ctgp for wiiu
that can def be ported to wii u since the car assets are reused

except bomb cars of course..
a port of the track could be done, for a reason there are already ports of other tracks from the dlc
like coconut mall
