#MarioKart
It should be noted that Cloudy Climb was released in early 2023 which was before AI was anywhere near as controversial as it is now. ChatGPT also obviously can't just generate custom tracks as a whole lol, most of the work was done by the author themselves. I like for the Midnight mods to be snapshots of their respective release windows, so I think regardless on how you feel about ChatGPT being used in the design process, including a track like this in a 2023 track compilation is relevant. Either way, thank you Troy for checking out more of these tracks!
that makes sense, though I'm curious as to what ChatGPT actually *did* for the track
@@DeviDoesNothing I don't make custom tracks, but I'm a computer scientist who uses ChatGPT on a daily basis for work; this premise is to say that I have an idea (so I'm going to speculate, I'm not sure) on how it can be used somewhat effectively.
I'm sure it was an iterative process, this means that the track wasn't done just with a single question/query, for instance "design a mario kart wii custom track", but rather it was a series of more precise questions.
I can imagine a series of questions like:
- what can be the general shape of the track?
- I have a left turn, what can I put after it? (e.g. a right turn, some obstacles, a set of item boxes)
- I put item boxes here, here and here, where can I put a fourth set?
- and so on...
Maybe the questions are not correct, that's somewhat irrelevant, the important thing to understand is that AI prompts are tools that can't do everything on their on, they help humans with work, and, at least as of today (and especially in early 2023), they work better if you ask them precise questions about small stuff, where you don't have to think too too much.
Hope I was clear, I'm willing to answer any question!
@@valeriovenanzi1388 that's exactly what i thought when i saw chat gpt as a "creator"
14:39
Goomba's booty boardwalk is a board in Mario party 8, and the things on the ground are the little squares you land on.
That was my favourite board imo
Mkw and Mario party 8 were my two childhood Mario games. I’m loving the crossover!
i never played it but my brain was like "this must be a mario party reference"
Sometimes it feels like Troy doesn't know any references outside of cart racers. Then later on he's talking about how the Wii is his favorite console, but he wasn't familiar with one of its best selling games?
4:19
Those ants are actually called "Ant Troopers" and they were featured in Mario 3D World, so that explains why they looks so weird compared to regular ants
Occasionally in his videos Troy seems kinda drunk or smthn. This is one of them and I love it.
cali kush
There is no doubt in my mind that Troy ingested some good shit before recording this
The only way you’d get me to play this track pack is if you gave me whatever shit Troy was on when recording this🤣
cali kush
Troy has alway had this level of commentary brah
Cali kush
Goomba’s Booty Boardwalk is a board from Mario Party 8 (my personal fave Mario Party for nostalgia reasons). That’s why the colorful squares - they’re the spaces on the board that give or take away coins or have special things happen. In Mario Party it’s a one-way board and at the end Goomba gives you the star from his chest
That buddha park was lowkey cooking. It had all the elements of a good track:
Clarity, you could tell exactly where you needed to go pretty much, with maybe the only loss in clarity being the track rejoining toward the end of the lap
A shroomed shortcut:
These are actually really important to allow comebacks as back spam con otherwise wall you in this game sometimes when you only get mushrooms
Small bits of tech to make things interesting: The techs that it had were clearly good and grant an advantage, but for someone new to the track, they are by no means necessary. These little bits reward mastery and are also just fun to watch and play because they are rewarding. Prime example was the railing ride from the ramp.
Something extra that it did to solve a design issue for the baby-park-likes is that it split the track. This reduces the claustrophobia a bit as there is likely going to be a half split of the racers. It also makes it a bit easier for comebacks on a track that otherwise has a very small shortcut.
Troy I love you but every time you bump into an arrow sign and ask "Where do I go?" I lose a bit of sanity lol
hes high asf fs
This is so real lol he pisses me off sometimes
also half the comment section is just people explaining to him what other things from the mario series are... this is what happens when you only ever play 1 video game non-stop lmao
@@callmecolbygrow up for the love of everything
There is a glitch I found on retro rewind where when you go on vs mode offline, quit once in a race and go on battle and play a random track the weirdest stuff happens. You play on the track you just played on versus (not a battle track) and the track is really different + there is random battle music and you can complete laps. you also get randomly teleported when you die. works best on Wii tracks in v6.1.1. Edit: Ghost valley 2 and desert hills crashes the game. Sherbert land crashes as well after about 20 seconds
sorry if its not based on the video but I thought I'd share it
Best track from today? (besides WIGGLERDOME ofc)
how is ur comment older then the video also first
Kirby track!! The waddledees are sooo cute
Because it's possible😊
Ant Arctic Ambush. It’s totally based off a 3D World level with the Ant Troopers and candy theme, and the track seems similar to Luncheon Tour. Tranquility Temple is great too, Metabus is just great at making peak.
All of them
4:59 He's trying xD
Audamal Arkapalago 😭💀
today I learned troy has never played 3d world and also doesnt know how to read
Dude the last track was actually an insanely good one like I almost want to play it for 100 laps with that beat!
Club penguin dojo remix went crazy
19:37 That's a Bone Goomba, it shows up in the tower levels in New Super Mario Bros 2, sorta to go with Dry Bones being a skeletal Koopa
10:35 This has to be the worst respawn point in a (unofficial) Mario Kart track ever. This so far away from the fall off point that it doesn't even make sense.
0:25 Wiggler Dome?! More like Douchebag with a Flower on Top Dome!
😟
28:42 The DS club penguin nostalgia hits deep
Sorta surprised you didn't understand Goomba's Booty Boardwalk. It's based on a Mario Party 8 board of the same name.
I never played that one actually
There's like 20 Mario party games 😅
Fair point, honestly. Troy's not exactly a Mario Party youtuber.
Thing is, though, 8 is one of the Mario Party games people are much more familiar with, since the Wii sold very well compared to the N64 and GameCube. So I'm sure he's heard a bit about it at some point.
@@VoidSinisteryeah but mario party 8 came out close to mario kart wii, so you'd think he would be familiar with that one in particular
@@TWD98 I like how you said "that one" as if you played other Mario Party but still not recognized Mario Party's tiles (well tbf it's possible since tiles sometimes changed but I still find it funny).
Goombas booty boardwalk is from Mario party 8
2 seconds into the race I knew this was from Marty party 8 just cuz of the squares. Would’ve been cool if they incorporated that green space cannon that sends you all the way back to the beginning as an actual cannon, or maybe even use the lucky island
Booty 🤨🤨🤨
Bright white is also a good option for arrow colors.
Track at 8:16 looks like it needs a bit of different texturing. It looks like the same color of brown for the side spikes and the track, plus it doesn’t provide much depth based on the light (which isn’t good because it isn’t exactly flat terrain). If the texturing of the dirt looked better there, I think it would be a more friendly track altogether.
The Archipelago track looks AMAZING but could probably use more of the Troy-approved arrows and some turns that aren’t as sharp because it seems like right now it’s built for Time Trials and not for multiplayer/casual gameplay.
Autumnal Archipelago was made for track creation competition where you had to make a challenging track. That's what the creator achieved very well.
28:52 The music used is a remix of the Club Penguin Card-Jitsu dojo. That's amazing. Nostalgia is real.
That first track definitely took from the first boss in Diddy Kong racing a little bit, but with a lot more to it.
glad you liked tranquility temple so much 😊
Its great. Love the Club Penguin dojo music also 😊
16:07 If you loved that game, you should've played kirby and the rainbow curse on the Wii U! It's basically a sequel to that game!
28:24 Tranquility Temple brings me Ninja Hideaway vibes!
Zach you changed your pfp back to what it was a year ago?
Indeed! Mario & Yoshi from Super Mario World (SNES) in LEGO bricks!
Just started watching some of your videos mixed brought of really old ones and recent ones. I must say I love your videos. You’ve gained a new subscriber by the way.😊 keep up the great work!
Tranquility Temple, Ramen Village Food Apocalypse, and Wigglerdome are my favorite tracks of this video.
9:58 Troy: GG’s
Yoshi: *WAA-*
Goomba's Booty Boardwalk is a Mario Party board
An AI-generated custom track? Really? With all due respect… no.
EDIT: Mayro’s comment cleared things up enough for me, so props to her for doing so. My two biggest gripes with AI are how taxing it is on the environment and how it’s used in ways to discredit artists/writers/composers/anyone whose profession revolves around human artistry and creativity (and the threat this poses to humans who work in these fields - I’m a composer, so this is a real worry for me). 99% of all reactions I have to AI is going to be negative, but had I known what Mayro said, I would’ve been less harsh.
Agreed
Love troys content but this made me not watch this video
It wasn't ai generated lol. Ai was used as a gimmick to help design it, but human effort was used to actually put the hours it took to make it.
@@ai_is_a_great_place that's not too bad then. But your username...
Cope
Let's go thanks for this one Troy and thanks Mayro for making this pack
LETS GO, nice mario kart video to watch and relax too 🎉
Brings me back to the days of rate that custom track :')
16:52 I mean the working title for the Wii was Revolution so it’s not too far from the truth.
This is a certified Mario Kart Midnight 2 classic!
Troy when are we getting Flounderfest back?
This week!
@TWD98 Thanks for letting me know!
We need more Mario Party and Kirby Air Ride tracks in Mario Kart
6:29 props thst lighting is crazy
Forbidden Funfair & Tranquility Temple need to be added to the next invitationals!
Ok, that track just speaks "Goosebumps: One Day At HorrorLand" to me for some reason
I really wish you'd do a little more bagging in these videos so you can show off more shortcuts. Great video though!
15:20 I recognize this ! It's a map from mario party 8 and one of people's favorites I'm pretty sure
nah the board is mid
5:00 Ark-uh-pe-luh-go
I gotta farm comments somehow
@1.27
I didn’t know Dave blunts spilled the cup😂
Least knowledge of Mario Mario Kart Player ever.
I just got online and I'm pretty decent at Mario kart and love the challenge. I had to find you again for training lol. Smash I need to deeply improve lol
They should make maps where the main track has mud for an entire horizontal section so that vehicles with good acceleration can have their own place to make up ground
6:56 very mindful, very demure
4:59 that would be:
ah-TUM-null ar-kuh-PELL-uh-go
Good video as always!
Nahhhh, I think Troy pronounced it perfectly lmao
@Dont-b3-Yourself Oh yeah, it's probably just his California accent lol
What wil be the next knokout tournament series
26:44 Dashiegames circa 2016
Your commentary had me laughing too hard, talking about ants. I'd love to see these custom tracks unveiled online. Kinda makes me miss the others when you're playing against CPUs
Let’s say all tracks are best
4:46: what is bro yapping about here
Thats what im saying 😂😂
The next Flounder Fest needs to be on MK Midnight!!
Goombas booty boardwalk is a Mario party 8 board
is the tranquility temple music from club penguin LMAO
The second track reminds me of shark boy and lava girl when they were in that milk and cookie land 😂
4:14 The ants are from Super Mario 3D World
28:45 is that a remix of Bad Apple?
Omg you should do a 50 lap with Mayro on the last track!!
Not Troy being unable to pronounce archipelago😭
formula kart with the last track when? 👀
Formula Kart Wii on Tranquility Temple when?
Goomba’s Booty Boardwalk wins for me. Love the reference.
ant arctic ambush takes a lot of assets out of ninjabread man of all things lmao
Embrace the wiggler🗣️🗣️
Wigglerdome is peak level design 🔥🔥🔥
You were definitely high weren’t you 😭😭
I admit, custom music means as much to me as custom tracks. Unless it's a retro.
I thought I recognised Living Caverns as a defrosted version of a track from CTGP-7 due to a similar shortcut, but it's not.
i have a wii u with the mario kart disc, how can i play these kind of mods and how i managed to connect to internet?
So then how would Wiggler dome be in 9X5/6 CC?
Wow this is awesome 😮 👏👏👏👏👏 nice job mayro
How do you update the mod?
Saw someone requesting collabs. If I may, can I request that Troy do a collab with TWD98
There were never any goombas 😭😭😭
forget shroomcuts, i wanna see greenshell cuts!
what's the intro song? it sounds so familiar...
Its from Xenoblade I believe
Torigoth (Day) from Xenoblade Chronicles 2
@ THANK YOUUUU IT WAS DRIVING ME ABSOLUTELY CRAZY
3:59 CandyKart
don't see tracks by Sanic9kvr. Dissapointed
Is it possible to put mario kart midnight on wheel wizard?
I hate it when he misses random routes on the track that even I see
top 50 custom tracks when
Do a single drift challange to complete the first map
Omg Kirby Airride mentioned this Vid Goated already
any level with wiggler is the best level
This man is geeked
Flounderfest when?
Mario Party map!
1:10 glorified loop
flounderfest back again??
Baby park with innovation
another midnight banger
Arc-e-pe-lah-go 😆
Bro knows nothing about the mario universe ( even I know about the bone goomba)
It’s pronounced ark-kah-PEL-lig-go
ah yes I love words that were most commonly used in the early 1900's
Blud as never played any game besides Mario Kart Wii
Very nice!
Those tracks look awful. And what’s even worse is people vote them half the time!
