An unofficial native Windows port of the GameCube version, made by static recompilation: the game’s PowerPC code is translated to C on your PC and compiled there with the tools the package ships. It builds on Ethan Nicholas’s MIT-licensed mariokartdd-recomp and gcn-recomp recompiler, and adds online and LAN play for 2 to 16 people, with private rooms by code or public ones, solo or shared karts and shared character selection, natural 16:9 widescreen, mouse and keyboard controls, Xbox, PlayStation, and Switch controllers, and a launcher with automatic updates. Grand Prix and the battle modes are in, and everyone in a room needs the same build. The releases are called public betas and the README itself marks them as experimental; the latest, beta 10, came out on November 1. A Linux build is maintained separately by someone else, with online compatibility with the Windows one unverified. The download package contains no game data and no compiled copy of the game.

You needYour own US copy of Mario Kart: Double Dash!! (GM4E01), as an uncompressed ISO or CISO image, with a main.dol whose SHA-1 is e389e50357d4a5076ab3d38672204658f411123d; other regions and RVZ or GCZ formats aren’t supported. Plus 64-bit Windows 10 or 11, a graphics card with desktop OpenGL 3.3, a writable folder, and space for the tools, the build output, and a private copy of your image.
