The sunset mechanic actually can't work in 8 because the game doesn't use dynamic lighting for the whole track (only on characters models afaik, for performance reason). They would need to rewrite the lighting engine, which would take alot of time, something that they don't have when they have 4 months to make 8 tracks. Tour doesn't have such problem because the game uses a simpler lighting system, and also because the game has simpler graphics which means there are no performance concerns.

@@jakethedog2.0It absolutely is an excuse. If it did support it inherently, I see no reason why they wouldn’t do it. Them having years before making Sunset Wilds also is irrelevant because they really had no reason to have such a feature until this particular track, so why would they even think about dynamic skyboxes for any of that time, there was no reason for it. Even if they added in a different track instead of this one, there still would be an “excuse” why they couldn’t fully implement this track properly.

@@jakethedog2.0 The problem here is not laziness, I'm like 90% sure they wanted to implement the sunset mechanic. The problem is that MK8 at it's core was built with quality and performance in mind. As such, compromises had to be made. One such compromise was to use baked lighting instead of dynamic lighting, which means that a track can either be set during the day or night or whatever in-between, but it can't be changed on the fly afterward. It's like if you wanted to add more flour to a cake that you've already baked, not sure how that would work. The reason MK8 runs at a buttery-smooth 60 fps is in large thanks due to that. Otherwise we'd be playing at 30 fps if not less. Now, is it possible for them to change that? Yes, but it would take alot of time and would likely have an impact on performances. They could do some trickery with the skybox without having the track change to night, but I don't even know if the engine allows that currently. (Congrats if you made it to the end.)
@Alxium Жыл бұрын
The Sunset gimmick is something the devs wouldn't just forget. They didn't forget the tables in Cruiser, and they fixed the cars in Coconut Mall. Chances are very high that it is an engine limitation, since 8DX uses baked lighting which precludes dynamic skyboxes, at least ones that would look realistic. They could reprogram the engine, but it is very obvious whomever is making the DLC is NOT the OG dev team, so I doubt they have the ability to reprogram something as large and important as the game engine. They did their best to make it work with a static sunset, with the sun partly below the horizon to start with. However, if Nintendo gets enough flak about this, I wouldn't be too suprised if they bring some of the OG dev's back to rewrite the engine to make it work, but that seems like a LOT of effort for a DLC which isn't exactly know for the highest effort.

Ranking each wave, I would say.. #1 - Wave 3 By far the best wave imo. Almost every course was a hit. Love what they did with tracks like DS Peach Gardens, and just the fact 3DS Rainbow Road is there. The soundtrack for this wave is also top tier. #2 - Wave 5 Very solid wave, almost no misses aside from obviously GBA Sunset Wilds. The city tracks were very decent, and Squeaky Clean Sprint is a very creative nitro track. Of course, we also got 3 new characters. Though, I think the music could have been better with some tracks. #3 - Wave 2 Aside from Sky-High Sundae and SNES Mario Circuit 3, every track was very fun. Love how they handled N64 Kalimari Desert, love the retro tracks like GBA Snow Land, DS Waluigi Pinball, and Wii Mushroom Gorge. The Tour tracks were pretty alright, and they also slightly improved the graphics from Wave 1. #4 - Wave 4 Kinda disappointing imo. Tracks like Yoshi's Island and GCN Waluigi Stadium were very fun, but most of the others weren't all that great. Amsterdam Drift was very mediocre, GBA Riverside Park is fine but theres not a lot there, and of course DS Mario Circuit just isn't a good pick. #1 - Wave 1 Bad graphics, bad track choices like 3DS Toad Circuit and DS Shroom Ridge. They completely massacred tracks like GBA Sky Garden and Wii Coconut Mall. Tokyo Blur is boring, and Ninja Hideaway just isn't fun to race on imo.

I just want to quickly add that adding the sunset is a LOT more complicated in this game over Tour, tour is just changing a light, this game has a whole bunch of other values that are probably incredably difficult to adjust real time, though yes, they definitly should have and could have, but we all know this DLC is clearly on a stupidly tight budget and also on a stupidly tight time schedule, and judging by the fact that the dynamic shadows (shadow cast by objects and characters etc) are extremely pixelated sometimes they probably tried and failed, and with a bit of luck they will finish it the next wave, just like how the coconut mall cars were unfinished in Wave 1 also.

This wave is probably one of my 2nd favorite out of the 5. It was so close to being my favorite but the lack of dynamic time of day changes for GBA Sunset Wilds makes it a let down in my books. I think this feature in 8 Deluxe's version due to its engine limitations. Also, after listening to all of the music in Wave 5 - GBA Sunset Wilds is my least favorite in general out of the 8 courses in Wave 5. To be honest, I have never been quite as mad as Wiggler over a GBA course but I am. It is well deserving of its placement in the BCP, but I am not a huge fan that would want to protect it for its life. Thoughts for LA Laps' "bahs" replaced with sax... I actually like this new version of LA Laps. Who knew that saxophones and synths can work well in harmony together. Also, Vancouver Velocity's music sounds WONDERFUL in 8 Deluxe. From what I heard, they used an EWI (aka Electronic Wind Instrument, pronounced "Ee-wee") for the portion that can be heard "29 seconds" into the course's music as well as the last part of the music before it loops back. Just incase you're wondering what an EWI is, think of it as a synthesizer combined with a clarinet or a recorder and you get that sound. It might sound odd at first but this has definitely elevated the music much better. I will give you a link to the OST so you see what I meant; kzbin.info/www/bejne/oHe3hquceNx2fKc&ab_channel=TZGaming Overall it is an *8.5/10* in my books for Wave 5 of the Booster Course Pass. Wave 3 is still my favorite, but *Wii Moonview Highway* is my favorite classic/retro by far because I have noticed something that is not in the original or Tour's version. The Dash Panels in the City portion of that course is actually _randomized_ each time you play on it. You actually notice it in the Course Intro and while racing. It is pretty much the BCP's version of Excitebike Arena. So while the traffic is not as hectic, the Dash Panels being randomized makes up for it. For me, I love the changes they made to LA Laps, even with it being daytime since it is in a wave that Sunset Wilds is in and you get more of the beachy summer vibe to it. One cool detail is that the coins at the Baseball Stadium is not only in the arrangement of a baseball, but the coins on the circle portion of it is rotated to make it look like a circle which gives it quite an interesting look. To be honest, the only Wave that could beat Wave 3 is Wave 6... and after listening to Piranha Plant Pipeline (seriously, just call it *Pipe Canyon* or something. It is too similar to the PAL name of 3DS Piranha Plant Slide being *Piranha Plant Pipeway*), I am actually loving the music of that new nitro course. Speaking of nitro, we are getting *one nitro less* in Wave 6 according to the datamines found in the game's files for Wave 5. Wii Moonview Highway replaced that slot, that means *Wii Rainbow Road* is SAVED and definitely coming for sure. Along with that, we are getting *2 cities, 1 SNES, 2 nitros and 2 GCNs* according to the prefix leak. I have a gut feeling that *GCN Mushroom City* is coming for sure and not Mushroom Bridge. It is the only course that might actually makes sense to be in Mario Kart Tour and Mario Kart 8 Deluxe. So we are not out of the woods or city blocks in terms of city themed courses.
