CTGP Nitro is a ROM Hack of MKDS made by the community that aims to add more tracks, and other content to Mario Kart DS.
The eventual amount of CTs is 24, but it aims to contain up to 96 different CTs.

Currently in the first release (Ver 0.0.1) a total of 24 new tracks have been added along side the original 32 Nintendo tracks!

More CTs, and other features will be added with each new release of CTGP Nitro.

CTGP Nitro can be downloaded here:

How would I get the rom to work? I got the rom into my roms folder w/ my patch, but it's only a black screen on top and a white one on the bottom...

How would I do this for 3DS? Would there be a .cia or .3dsx file, or wait, could I convert the .nds file to .cia?

How are you launching it? It should work fine on the latest TWiLight Menu++, or a flashcard

Maybe you not doing it correct and try again patch up. You can add DS Forward on your 3DS menu so you can either go in Twilight Menu ++ or on 3DS Menu.

You are right, same issue here trying to create and patch. Seem not working im struggle n figuring this out and dont explain specific to match the crc32,md5, sha-1. I have done with the others but not this maybe bad xdeltaUI.exe.

@supergamecube - can you give the matching SHA-1, CRC32 and MD5 thank you also the boxcover I shrinked the CTGP Nitro.png for screenshot

I would like to say a few words, as they come to mind, since no one has yet done so (and this surprises me quite a bit), to highlight that this Hack is truly exceptional and remarkable.

Right from the start you can see the care in the overall execution, the love for small details, the professionalism of the track construction, the alternation of track types and the color combination: all things that make it a real jewel, in my opinion much better than the attempts made previously to improve and enrich the original game.

Since those who have preceded me has done nothing but complain, I emphasize that I have tried it for a few hours on DS lite and DSI XL through r4GoldPro (YSMenu) and it works perfectly. And I remember in passing that this is the NDS (not 3DS) section.

So far I have completed the first four tournaments and they were all very entertaining and very satisfactory: looking forward to the addition of future, new tracks for what promises to be the most complete, rich, massive and definitive racing game for DS.

Highly recommended to all, without a shadow of a doubt.
Period. :)

P.S. Only Dokan course (I think it is perhaps a beta track) seems a little banal and poor in detail, even boring to run, and should be retouched and perhaps lengthened.
I would suggest adding some more power-ups, to make the challenge more frantic, and aesthetically a colorful texture of the sky would not be bad.

As for the Colour circuit, the track itself is well designed and built, and also the use of "pastel" colors is an original idea; but why to use so few colors (maybe 4 or 5) on a track whose salient feature should be, as the name says, the Colour?

I could not find anywhere on the official website or within the readme as far as who to contact about bugs, so hopefully it's the OP or someone else may know.

When playing the Moon Cup - Sunshine Station - 50cc (have not tested 100cc/150cc)
The item boxes are not visible when racing. You can see them on the mini-map and they react correctly if you accidently hit one, but none of them are visible throughout the entire track.

Playing on 3DS via R4i & Twiilight Menu
Every other track on 1-Up Cup, Ice Cup, and Moon Cup were 100% fine.

Just tried it out, and twilightmenu isn't working for me either. Turns out NDS bootstrap has some issue with ds romhacks, I'd post a link but github thinks I'm spamming if I send it.

Forward3ds works for you, but twilightmenu++ doesn't? Both use NDS bootstrap, that's very odd. Are you using a flashcart per chance? It would appear Twilightmenu has issues with romhacks

Is your TWiLight Menu++ up-to-date? It's just fine for me.
