    Hey if you've ever played Mario Kart Wii, you should recognize this track.

    Starting Line
    [​IMG]

    1st mushroom bounce
    [​IMG]

    Alternate Route
    [​IMG]

    Double Bounce
    [​IMG]

    Final Stretch
    [​IMG]

    Map Link: Bungie.net : Halo 3 File Details

    Gametype Link: Bungie.net : Halo 3 File Details

    Alternate Game: Double Dash

    -For double dash mode, Two people per goose, VIP on back VIP and Driver work together to knock opponents off the track

    Tips

    -Try to stay in the middle while bouncing, This will decrease the chance of you falling off, Also do not decrease in speed while approaching a mushroom

    -The alternate route will take past the mushroom, but it will not guarantee survival

    Well that is Mushroom Gorge, Check back every once and a while; this may end up as a map pack!

    I love this track!!! (on mario kart), and I alos love the track on halo 3. MKW has a lot of strategy envolved and I think that this will bring that strategy to halo. I loke how you used the SD's as the mushrooms. Thank you for making this map, I will download and give it a try. good job. 4/5

    I don't play mario kart, but I do know what it's like. Too bad we can't use equipment on mongooses :S. Your map overall, is... well messy. Although I will say that there are lots of fun shortcuts like the double bounce, the overall aesthetics is what ruins it for me. I recommend tyding up a V2, but good concept in the long run.

    Also, why is there a random kill ball on the ground?

    I like the concept a lot, but the map looks a bit messy
    A V2 would definitely be helpful
    first impression 3.5/5

    I just played it and saw no resemblance to the level in Mariokart, aside from the mushrooms
    overall impression 3/5

    I love the track on Mario Kart Wii. This map would be fun, I have no doubt, but it just looks... messy. Tidy it up for a version 2... no offence. Also, why is there a Kill Ball on the ground?

    Looks kinda good, don't know how it plays tho, cuz I don't really want to download a racetrack. But I think the other people are right with the v2 thing, It is a bit messy. 3.5/5.

    Good idea remaking Mario Kart, great game. I've never played "mushroom gorge", but the forging looks a little sloppy. Ill edit after DL.

    Thank you all. I will make v2 and i will also recreate tracks upon request.
    (Has to be from N64, GCN, Or Wii versions) And for those of you wondering about the kill ball, It is the cheat-proof finish line, (if you walk through, it takes you to the Kill Ball,) Anyway. DK Mountain coming out today, gotta clean it up a bit...

    Q: Is it possible to pick up grenades while on the back of a goose? (Item "Blocks", hehehHAHAHA!)

    I luv this map on mario kart!! And I love how you recreated it flawlessly. I wish I had the idea of doing this. I like how you used the tin cups for the mushrooms, and the shield doors for that extra bounce. Definite dl 5/5

    I played this and thought it was new for a racetrack, but you need to clean up like others have said. Plus the turns are way too tight and the map seemed kinda small. Nice job with the mushrooms but otherwise, 2/5. If you clean it up, maybe i'll bump it to 4/5, depending on how well it turns out.

    I won't say anything about the tidy up, like everyone else has said. The corners are a bit tight, and it seems small for a MK track. I loved playing MK on the 64, but this kinda ruins the memories. I would definitely say lower the starting section so you don't always land square on your face. And the Tele's I went through never took me to the kill ball, they took me to an area where I got fried by the gaurdians...
