Developers: Bandai Namco, Xeen, Nintendo This game has unused areas. |
To do:
|
The third Mario Kart Arcade GP game that ditches the other PAC-Man characters in favor of only including the Pac himself and removes Rainbow Cup, but adds characters with palette swaps, gliding, underwater, and Don-chan. Oh, and no more Mario Card!

Source files
Autodesk models
Present in DataModel, DataSystemModel and DataModelmenueggslot, the files spe25_dekatibi_R.xsi and spe25_dekatibi_F.xsi were added in the 1.10 update.
Download Autodesk model sources from MKAGPDX File:MKAGPDX_AutoDeskModelSRC.zip (12,483 KB) (info) |
Bishamon effect solutions
Present in DataEffectsbmsln, are solutions for a portion of the models made from the Bishamon middleware used from Matchlock Corporation. They were made from 2012-2013.

Maya collada
Present in DataEffectsmodel are a portion of raw collada files. Almost all of them were created by S_Ihara, likely Sayo Ihara, who is part of the visual effects team at Xeen Inc. in the credits. The source file exported is usually located in D:/MK3/EF/3D/maya/scenes/sozai.mb and related textures are in D:/MK3/EF/3D/maya/image/*, where star could be something like ef_3D_common_a01.dds or ef_3D_tornado.png. The only file that isn't created by that person is obj_warp02.dae where the author is not present in the file but the texture compilation location D:/users/imaki/projects/MK3/effects/model/ef_3D_warp02.dds suggests that Toshifumi Imaki who is also part of the same group from the same team made it.

Uncompiled effect shaders
The base game and update(s) have uncompiled shader effect files Shift-JIS encoded in the directory DataSystemShader. Similar files are separated across them.

Ruby scripts
To do: Upload them, putting them here raw would just make the page bigger. |
Present in DataEffectsshader are Ruby scripts for making the shaders.
Maya swatch file
Present in DataModelkartmariospe23.mayaSwatches is a single file titled mark_mario_col.dds.swatch, being a Maya swatch file that has no use by the game. It was created by imaki-toshifumi on I-0911, where I-0911 is likely the computer or workspace while imaki-toshifumi is likely Toshifumi Imaki, who takes part of the visual effects team at Xeen Inc. as seen in the credits of the game. The file was created on Monday August 18th at 20:12:45/8:12 PM in 2014.
Raw PNG textures
The Data/Effects/model directory has two modified source PNG files before converting to DDS, one (ef_3D_common_a01) also has a DDS file but the other (ef_3D_tornado) doesn't. The first doesn't have the fire particles.
Unused Graphics
Present in flash/data_jp/common_tex/tex/test.pac are test character icons of all the characters from the first release (Rosalina is there as well because her files are present in the first release) in dds format. The most notable difference is Pac-Man, as he uses his older model from GP1/2. In the final, he uses his appearance from Pac-Man and the Ghostly Adventures. There's also smaller versions of the same icons.
flash/data_jp/test_data/test_datatex.pac contains two Mario icons (much like the ones in test.pac), and sprites for a test menu and two images of old cars in Japan, most likely at some kind of car show. They may have been used to test the camera.
flash/data_jp/select_00/select_00tex.pac has placeholder sprites for the class selection and other sorts. It reuses artwork from GP1/2, Mario Kart Wii, and Mario Kart 7.
Mario Kart Arcade Gp Dx 2
Present in flash/data_jp/common_tex/tex/chara_p00.pac, in the first release, are character select icons for Yellow Yoshi and Blue Yoshi. There may have been plans for more palette swap Yoshis as DLC, but got cut for unknown reasons. Only Red Yoshi and Black Yoshi were released. Red Yoshi's icon is present as well, but Black Yoshi's wasn't added yet. Yellow Yoshi's slot ID is 16 (0x10), and Blue Yoshi's is 18 (0x12).
Lakitu U-Turn Sign
Lakitu's object graphics have a U-turn sign, along with a specular map for it, for when the player goes backwards, but since the player can't go backwards, it goes unused. There's also no model for it. A glitch can be done to force the player to go backwards by disabling the warps at Peach Castle or Kingdom Way, but the sign doesn't attempt to appear either.
Grid test?
The texture and model directories in DataEffects have this file called test_01.dds, the base and update(s) of the game have this file.
Error popup textures
To do: Upload them. |
flash/data_jp/common_tex/tex/popup_error.pac has fully translated error message popup textures but unfortunately they went unused as the game pulls strings from the error list text file to display over the 'Call Attendant' message instead when an error occurs during bootup or gameplay.
Opening texture
flash/data_jp/common_tex/tex/opningtex.pac has one texture, only a 32x32 white square.
Unused Tracks
To do: Find/create new videos of tracks. |
There's a total of 4 unused tracks in this game. One debug track, and 3 regulation maps.
Debug Stage
In Model/stage_debug, all the folders for the tracks are present, but all are empty except the KP folder (Toad Cup). In it, is a debug track with only the dirt road texture and the skybox texture with one of the areas from the Toad Cup tracks, and the skybox model. The track is an early/unfinished version of Kingdom Way with only a dirt road of the entire track. The video shows how the track looks (the water, mushroom model, star model, and shadows aren't originally part of the track). This track also doesn't have it's own collision file or any other sort of file.
Regulation Maps
In the Develop directory, there's 3 folders called RegulationMap00, RegulationMap01, and RegulationMap02. 00 is an early version of Bon Dance Street, 01 is a very early version of Omatsuri Circuit, and 02 is an early version of Aerial Road. Unlike the debug track, these have their own collision data.
Omatsuri Circuit actually has a bit of different mapping, like a shortcut slope, which is similar to the ones in GP1/2, and the part where the underwater section is, has a higher height. This track is also possible to fall through because a small part of the road isn't solid, and under all tracks is actually completely solid road that goes on forever. This could be because there's no areas in the game where the player would fall off, so the road most likely prevents the player from falling forever just incase a glitch ever happened. However, it's impossible to complete a lap under the track.
Aerial Road doesn't have a cloud section at all, just a wooden road.
Removed Test Song
Race Test
Sound/Bank/NUS3_BANK_BGM.nus3bank has a song called race_test, but the wav file was removed.
Removed Sound Test Sounds
According to the sound names in NUS3_BANK_COMMON.nus3bank, there were a total of 7 sounds for playback in the sound test at one point, but two were removed. They were named (in order) SoundTest1 and SoundTest2, most likely these were the same sound file.
Oddities
Information skip sound
NUS3_BANK_COMMON.nus3bank has a sound going by se_sys_skip, in the USA version of the game, this was used when skipping information during the loading screen or end game tip by pressing ITEM, but the JP version didn't allow you to skip the loading tips as no option allowing you to do so is displayed but you could for the end game tip.
Fire Mario
For whatever reason, if Fire Mario's slot ID (0x0E) is moved to a different character slot, such as Mario's, by editing the file CharacterSelectParameter.bin in MenuParam/data, his icon will display and name, but regular Mario will appear in T-pose. When he's selected, the game can't go to the next menu, selecting the kart. Along with this, Fire Mario also has files for a separate character (Model/driver/f_mario), as he's normally a palette swap of Mario. The used files for him are with Mario's files.
Rosalina and Metal Mario
In the first release of the game, Rosalina and Metal Mario have all of their files present, almost fully complete. The only things missing are some icons for them, as they use placeholder ones, and Rosalina uses one early icon for the camera image. They were even added into the game before Bowser Jr. was added, as their slot IDs are 0x0B (Metal Mario) and 0x0C (Rosalina). Bowser Jr.'s is 0x0D.
AI identifier file
The directory Data/RivalCarParam/Clone has a empty file named こちらは分身対戦モード用AIデータです ('Here is AI data for online ghost vs. battle mode') without an extension. It refers to a mode that was exclusive to the Japanese release where the player raced AI opponents that adopted the habits and style of other players from across Japan.
Launch commands
The game executable mentions such a few launch commands in Unicode, the first majority affect the framework while the others affect the game.
- -forcehal= Forces a HAL device type.
- -noerrormsgboxes= Hides message boxes.
- -forcevsync:1 = Enables V-Sync.
- -fullscreen = Forces the game to run in fullscreen.
