Pipsqueak737 | Is it possible to add entirely new characters without replacing existing characters? For example, instead of replacing Toad with Toadette, they'd be seperate without her replacing anyone. |

SGC Yellow | It is with ASM hacking, Ermii Kart DS did something similar, with multiple coloured versions of Yoshi. |

I don't think it's that simple to be honest. Let's remember the colored Yoshis are palette swaps of 1 character ; it's the same model with the same animations and voice clips. In the Sound data every character has a specific way to arrange their voice clips and some even have different sample rates than others as well as their own slot for their wave sounds , for example , Walugi's voice clips for the race are in WAVE 14 , and so on I don't think there's a way yet to actually include your own ''wave slot'' for the game to recognize yet another set of voice clips for a character out of the original roster. Even Shy Guy has his own slot for this. You would need to '''make space'' in the game to add your own slot for the character , their voices and animations ,as well as karts , and that doesn't sound super easy if you ask me. Currently the best you can do , is to completely change a characters clips , animations , portraits and karts to replace the original one so it's not half assed work. |

I said that it was something similar, not exactly the same. The voice data isn't really needed for the character to work, as a matter of fact the game will boot properly, as long as there's a sequence that the game can play, at the Nintendo Logo. Everything else will work fine without any sound data at all, however it's a bit boring. It would most likely work very similarly to Gericom's more Cups, and Track ASM hack, with that you can add tracks, without replacing others. You can include your own voice data, without replacing the voice of another character, however it requires tools from the Nitro SDK. |

It's as SGC said, you can only do that through ASM Hacking. However, ASM is so hard, only a select few people in the ROM Hacking Universe can do that. |
