CTGP-7 Launcher is a homebrew launcher application for the Nintendo 3DS used to launch the CTGP-7 mod for Mario Kart 7. It utilizes the Luma3DS plugin loader to load the mod. The repository also includes a modification of the plugin loader from the Luma3DS plugin loading support fork, tailored specifically for Mario Kart 7 title IDs.

The project is forked from BootNTRSelector by Nanquitas.

Description

CTGP-7 is a modpack for Mario Kart 7 that adds custom tracks, characters, extra features and more to the game. The CTGP-7 Launcher serves as the dedicated launcher application that initiates the mod through the Luma3DS plugin loading system.

The launcher also includes a built-in downloader (CTGP-7 Downloader) that can download the CTGP-7 mod directly on the 3DS without the need for a PC. Installation using this method can take more than 2 hours.

Region and language support

CTGP-7 supports USA, European, Japanese and Korean copies of Mario Kart 7 (with the v1.2 update matching your region). Chinese/Taiwanese copies are not supported.

Supported languages include: English, Català, Deutsch, Nederlands, Français, Magyar, Italiano, 日本語, 한국어, Português, Русский, and Español.
