If you launch Mario Kart Fun 2016-10, it is impossible for you to find regular Wordwides. You can only search for other players on the Region 133, but that only works if other people who use the same distribution (Wiimms MKW Fun 2016-10) are searching. Sadly the region is not getting used that much, so if you dont find anybody thats basically because nobody else is playing right now. If you want to play online with other people i suggest you use the normal Wiimmfi patcher for regular tracks, or ctgp if you want to play both regular tracks and Custom tracks, since the ctgp region is way more active then the MKW Fun region.

If you announce: I will play MKW-Fun 20xx-yy at zz:00 CET, other people will occasional go online.

On a side note, even if the region 133 isnt that active: There are still weekly tournaments for Wiimms Fun, more information is here: Wiimms Fun Tournament.
The thread is mainly in german, so if you need any help with translations you can pm me on Discord, or just ask in english on the thread, im pretty sure some people will help you regardless if you type in english or german.

I have the same problem, using the lastest Mario Kart Fun 2017-05, any time of the day any day of the week, the region is always empty is it possible?

You can check the Wiimmfi page to see when people are playing MKW Fun. Sadly, its region is almost always empty.

Hi Leseratte, I am thinking on the possibility that I have been banned, but I have never played any MKW fun online.

Could you please check my status, if there is something wrong?

MY Wii FC is 8764-5276-1089-3703

My user FC is 1423-3417-2110.

Another question, how can I enter to a private room? invitations?

I got a suggestion, Why dont create a room in order for testing for people like me who are beginner, so we can see if everthing is OK?

Thanks in advance.

You are not banned, you can enter a friend room by clicking on the Mii in the friend list and clicking the button.

What do you mean with "a testing room"? The server doesn't create rooms. Only players on their Wiis can create rooms.

OK, yes I mean for example, you create a room so every newbies or beginners can enter in that room in order to test if everything is working OK, for example, the online playing, as in my case, I have never played online using Wiimmfi.

Another question, so in that site you mention, (wiimmfi.de/mkw) , which friend code should I add to my friend list in order to enter those private room? Is the FC besides HOST?

Just adding it to my friend code list I will be able to enter in that private room?

Or what are the steps to follow in order to get into a private room?

Thanks in advance

The player marked "HOST" is the host of a private room, yes. But you can only enter it, if the host uses Openhost, or if he registers your friend code. Private rooms are private rooms and not intended to be open for absolutely everyone.

If you are talking about MKW Fun 2017-05, we are playing that every Wednesday and Thursday at 17:30 UTC, and the room hosts have openhost so registering them is enough.

Thank you very much Leseratte for your information, I will try some of those days, and a last noob question, how to I register in a room with open host?

Thanks

To enter a room with openhost, just register the friend code of the room host in the game, click their mii in the friend list and enter.
To use openhost for your own rooms, see here: wiimmfi.de/openhost

Just a friendly advice: Dont join private rooms with people in it you dont know, especially not those where a lot of clanplayers are in (you can see that because most of them will have the same tag in their name), since they will end up kicking you anyways before you can play with them.

Many thanks for the information and for the advice

Anothe question, just added many friends codes from the wiimmfi.de/mkw site, but some of them have a happy face, what does that means?

And Do I have to use original Mario kart wii with the wiimmfii patch applied on it or any Wiimms MKW Fun in order to play online?

Thanks

What do you mean with "happy face"? Which column?
Have you read the hints behind the orange "i" icon?

may be that he is talking about the yellow happy face that appears in the wii when you add a FC with openhost and he/she is playing at this moment ???

If you clicked on that happy face you can see what it says.... probably "im playing a worldwide race" or "im playing a regional race", wich is self explanatory............. And if you want to play regular tracks online you have to play the original mkw wiimmfi patched.

Yeah, that is, thanks you both for the explanation.

So that "happy face" when I am adding to my friend list codes, just appear if that friend uses open host?

A have a question, to patch the original mkw I have to use mkw-wiimmfi-patcher-v3?

If the usb loader I use, the CFG loader, have the option to use the "wiimmfi server", a selected it, besides I have to patch every Wiimms MKW Fun with that patcher in order to plan online?

Thanks

- In this case yes, is because the other player has openhost. The other case with happy face (without openhost) would be because both players exchange their FC.
- Yes if you want to play mkw online (only mkw) you must to patch the original mkw with the mkw-wiimmfi-patcher-v3.7z
- I am not sure in that point but i didn´t change options in the configurable USB loader (I dont know if this is the same loader). And you must follow the specific instruccions for this mkw distribution (mkw-fun).

Please, somebody correct me if I'm wrong .

Ok, I understood.

But if I want to play Wiimms MKW Fun series online (2017-05, 2016 , etc) , I have to patch each game of that series too with mkw-wiimmfi-patcher-v3.7?

Thanks

All MKW Fun distributions from after May 2014 are already patched for Wiimmfi.

All MKW-Fun since 2014-01 and also the first+second are Wiimmfi patched!
