New player : Mario Kart on Wiimms Connect

Feldunoob · 11. Januar 2018, 14:33

Hello,

I have succesfully loaded Mario Kart on GX USB Loader.
Three of my friends succeeded as well, however i am facing problems when i try to play on internet.

The game asks me to select the world, i chose "worldwide".
Then asks me what kind of race i wanna do, i chose "VS race".
And then it shows Error code 81010.

The console is new, as my 3 others friends.
I have never played this before.

Can anyone point me out the problem ?

Thanks in advance.

Worldwide matches are disabled on Wiimms MKW-Fun and you were auto-kicked by the server (81010) when you attempted to search for a match. You can only play regional (with others who have the same distribution, or in private rooms, again, with the same distribution. Best is to organize those matches with others.

Thanks for yours answer.

So ... how to switch back to regional matchmaking then ? (is permanently over this worldwide matchmaking ?)
I have 3 friends, how can i send them a key to add me as friend ? (Just like you whitout OpenHost)

I know that's redundant questions, but that shows how hard it's to get accurate information actually ...

You are probably using Wiimms MKW Fun, not regular Mario Kart Wii. Just don't click "Global" but "Region X / Continental" instead. When you go online, you can see your friend code at the bottom.

Hello,

So i updated my ISO using latest update and V2 from December.
Selected Regional, but it's stuck in "searching for players" since hours !

I'm located in France, this shouldn't be that long !

Anything missed ?

If you use Wiimms MKW Fun, you must use regional - but you rarely find players.
If you use the regular Mario Kart Wii, you should use global since you find more players there.

If you disconnect every time you use global, you are using MKW Fun, I'd recommend using Global in normal Mario Kart Wii.

But i thought that normal mario kart wii in global had ended since Nintendo closed the servers ?
Maybe you mean few changes to do on normal versions to be able to play on global ?

By the way i encountered cheaters on the regional one (i think), they fall on lava and suddenly start again on the road ...
That was really strange.

Wiimms Mario Kart Fun is a special Mario Kart version with more tracks. You'll rarely find players online with that.
The original Mario Kart Wii needs to be patched with this patcher - download.wiimm.de/wiimmfi/patcher/mkw-wiimmfi-patcher-v3.7z - to enable online play.
