Heart of China is the only track I ever practiced. So whenever a room is especially mean to me I pick this one to get an easy first place. Works all the time, haha
Yeah one time while in the same lobby as Mankalor I was in first but got stuck behind a building for so long I fell to last, was a miracle I recovered Still better than Mushroom Peaks because at least its actual driving is relatively fair and consistent
That updated Heart of China track made the worst track in CTGP currently into a track that has a high skill ceiling but can be beaten if you are an average player
Mushroom peaks is much worse than current heart of china. It's not even close. I understand that heart of china is confusing, but after you see the route twice, it makes sense where to go. Mushroom peaks is just pain and suffering and straightaways that last way too long.
That Daisy Palace remake took me back many years in the past, when there was a "CT Creators Group" in Skype before Discord was even a thing. Vulcanus (the original author of the track) created the group and it was active everyday for so long. Those were really good times! And I'm glad to see people still have cool and creative ideas. Keep it up! I love watching these videos, Sawyer. They bring a smile to my face every time.
It takes me back as well, kinda sad to see the canyon gone, but it looks a lot better now. Maybe one day I'll find the time/inspiration to make a CT again.. after I learn how to model in more modern tools XD. -Vulcanus2

Secluded Island looks very fun to play, and dang a Daisy's Palace remake after all these years, that takes me back. I remember people even recognizing me from online testing videos of the original from way back
I love how you spend extra time to actually drive the tracks well on these videos. On most ct showcases the driving isn’t good at all but you make it look really good and professional.
the last month or so has been insane! these tracks, along with skipper's 3ds dk jungle (which i kinda wish you showcased) and neon loop, have blown me away!
Great selection of tracks, all of them seems pretty fun! I'm happy to see a boardwalk type of stage that actually seems interesting! Also, I really hope this new version of Heart of China makes it to the next CTGP update, I feel like this is the redesign the track needed to make me interested about it!
Also interesting HOC remake. I knew there was a completely different remake being worked on but I don’t think it ever got finished. Is this one completely decoupled from that other remake?
Great tracks! Minor gripe with the first though : too much boost panels. It feels a bit like a device to "keep the track interesting" (which it doesn't really per se as it's relatively short) and flattens out the driving skills required by making you boost litteraly 80% of the time. I'm not sure whether we need more luck based tracks.
Now I know that many people like the new heart of China, though I kinda feel like it's lost its feel in a way, only a small part of the track is anything to do with the massive building: I feels like now is mainly around the sides
@@xenomkwii9608 on wiki.tockdom.com you can download tracks (szs files) and place them in the my stuff folder on your sd card (under the "ctgp-r" folder) where ctgp is installed. Then in the ctgp channel under settings you have to enable the my stuff folder. Also make sure to rename the files in the my stuff folder correctly. Type in "all mkwii file names" on google for a list with these details
@@xenomkwii9608 no, you can only replace files which are present in vanilla mkw. So the 32 regular tracks will be replaced if you use custom tracks not in ctgp. If you for example download Daisy's Palace and rename it to water_course in your my stuff folder, then the track will be loaded over koopa cape
Here is the King Boo texture download if you want to try it out :)

Thanks 😁
BRO TYSM I NEED THIS XDXDXD
@SitBar atlas give it to me, and I don't know if he wants me to give it sorry :/
As a pretty average player, I hope that the new heart of China gets in to the next update, the current version is just way too confusing to drive.
It's not very confusing imo but it plays bad. (Talking about the current version)
heart of china is one of the worst in ctgp, i agree with you there

@@YTPlushProductions yes
XD ikr

Wow, it's been ages since Heart of China got refreshed
New Heart of China is amazing! Now you can actually see whats going on and is overall much cleaner. Hopefully it will get added in the near future.
м Wouldn’t count on that happening anytime soon lol, you never know though
Still looks confusing as hell with it's 20 path variations and overloaded minimap
@@doomse150 But there is a easy-to-follow path
Some of these new cts look better than any reg track imo
tormi. It’s 2020 almost. I’d hope so
The first one and heart of china are on par. The rest aren't
@@Bruh-is6zf i dunno. i'd argue that daisy's palace is pretty damn close.
@@jclkaytwo nice to see you again. I think the outside of daisy palace is amazing but the insides a bit bland

Epic video and music as always! Keep it up dude
“Heart of China”
Japanese banner
Japanese Shinto torii gate
Me: 🤔🤔???
NANI?
Westerners generalising Asian countries again 🙄
More like "Heart of Japan"
@@SkyWireMashups It is a Japanese banner though. That's katakana for Mario Kaato
@@XenoWars Umm... That's literally my point. Why is a course with Japanese aesthetics called "Heart Of China"? It's a generalisation and ignorant.
Wheres the *MESMERISING* or the *OUTSTANDING* at? 😏

I changed the thumbnail so it doesnt look like "cracks" so you guys can comment something relevant to the video now LOL

I liked the old thumbnail:(
The new Heart of China looks great! Finally! Nice video :)

Oh my goodness dude. Its so good to see how much Daisy's Palace improved after seeing how it was in 2012 wow.
Abandoned Boardwalk looking awesome as a track can be.
Look like awesome tracks, maybe i'll do a TAS on some of them, nice video by the way ^^
you always have great music selections. Loving the new Heart of China!
thanks dude!
that first shroom spot was genius
Heart of China was insane
so many different paths to take, that's my favorite kind of track
Thank you so much for these videos
I remember the old Daisy's Castle from way back like 2012 or something and this updated version just looks so much better props to Joris.
man... hot heart of china update
Omg the screams from boo sync perfectly with the music at the beginning this is so insane
Gréât editing and video overall !
dude the tracks called "heart of china" and the writing on the banner is japanese :p
1:24 Dude, it's like banshee boardwalk but actually interesting!
That shortcut on the first track was very cool
8:10 what is the path on the right?
a little shortcut route, but there are like 15 routes/shortcuts so if i showed all of them half the video would be heart of china
Never thought I’d see a remake of Daisy’s palace! I haven’t seen that track in so many years oh my God
Just like Melee, MKWII will never die
You always seems to find some good maps, the second map is like so fucking good too
Vesfef yea the second one is insane
map lol
Hes french so he doesnt know the right terms but i really do agree ves. He clearly tries
0:56 that sync tho 👀
Just the fact that HoC looks even better blows my mind
awesome idea with the greenshell shortcut
Too bad I’ve already seen these other places, Great vid anyway🙂
I already knew about Abandoned and about those Daisy Palace and Heart of China updates
this isn't a release video, it's just a showcase.
Also interesting HOC remake. I knew there was a completely different remake being worked on but I don’t think it ever got finished. Is this one completely decoupled from that other remake?
Uh-oh! Heart of China’s back! At least it has a more obvious routes
Heart of china! Mai childhood self will be so happy if it saw this video now
We go from tracks like Kartwood Creek
To this:
This new heart of China looks like a super mario 64 level wow so cool
Thumbnail: says new tracks
Me: new cracks
well these look familiar 🤔
Btw how are those tracks being customized?
My opinion:
Secluded island: 7/10
Abandoned boardwalk: 8/10
Daisy's palace: 5/10
Glistening highway: 5/10
Heart of china: 6'5/10 better than actual (actual 3/10)
I think daisy's palace deserves a higher than 5/10 ;p
@@SawyerMKW lowkey shade to glistening highway
@@SawyerMKW I'd give it a 2/10 it's not that great
I cant seem to get the rainbow track to work when I select it, I completely crashes my game, how did you get it to work
I read the thumbnail as "new cracks"
they managed to make heart of China MORE confusing
it's actually easier to follow now, especially in the section with the red building.
If they use the remake of HoC ill be sad the track is epic rn
old HoC isn't really playable though lol
I hope some of these get into ctgp because they’re so good!
Hey Sawyer, could you make a new New cts vs old version comparison? I really enjoyed those videos!
Sorry, where I can trouve this tracks?????
PogChamp
No mario kart 8 tracks? I know that it is difficult because the karts are different, but maybe they were able to make the tracks roughly.
Ah yes, good old Custom Cracks.
Great tracks! Minor gripe with the first though : too much boost panels. It feels a bit like a device to "keep the track interesting" (which it doesn't really per se as it's relatively short) and flattens out the driving skills required by making you boost litteraly 80% of the time.

Why is shadow always so boring when designing a split path...
Yos can’t wait to see them
Are these in ctgp?
I like how the finish line is heart of china is written in Japanese
These feel legit
Heart of China but now you see where you drive
which new crack is your favorite?? o:
Now I wish there was a Mario kart maker!
Where’s daisy palace music from?
smash bros brawl
Sawyer what map?
@@KrustiiK look in the description, all the songs are listed there

did you watch lap 2? lmfao
Will those tracks be in CTGP on the next update?
That is very possible, yes
Where does he find these tracks???
Look in the description
Never noticed heart of china had a heart shaped map
I love the funky kong mod u used!
potatoman44 it’s king boo lol
It's Funky Kong but looks like King Boo
No look at the minimap and that flame runner has king boos colour scheme
@@kaioh16 everything was changed to King Boo but has Funky Kong's stats
The stat difference between the 2 is so small that you wouldn’t be able to spot that
OMG Heart of China is not terrible!
Wow 3 of the 5 are now in ctgp, nevermind now FOUR
I love them !
Yeah King Boo needs that helmet *He might fall off*
First track looks and seems fun. The rest seem tacky af. Daisy's Palace was never remade for a reason.
How do you play custom tracks? I'm confused.

Is the King BooHoo Texture Free?

By binary! Who the hack designed the minimap for Heart Of China?
That'll be me. :')
Good job
Im sorry, did they update Heart of China and make it BEARABLE TO PLAY!?!??!
Glistening highway = epilepsy avenue
Doesn’t HOC have like 10000000000 shortcuts?
yeah lmao
The Heart of China just looked like a clusterf*ck
Heart of China update looks great! Still don’t like the pond at the beginning though
it's so much better now since you don't jump straight into it.
5 new cracks
Why dont tracks like these are in ctgp. We get like suzuka or mansion of madness
because they're brand new???
I just mean in general. More tracks like these should be in.
Will they be in ctgp?
@@dylanmanf6427 there's no way to know right now, we'll just have to wait.
You really like donkey kong music
yes i do
Next track showcase you need to use a Sans mod
LOL maybe
when ur name gets left off of an update you made happen
I'm sorry Zach, I didn't know who had the biggest part in the update and I couldn't fit all of the names
now this is SPOOKY good. dont ban me please
im thinking about banning you LOL
Thumbnail looks like:
New Cracks
or
New Jracks
I wan't all of this tracks on CTGP and JHFR
And you'r run is pretty good ( you miss a cut on daisy palace with 1 schroom you can go in the top of the turn )
