Greetings! The news has been around in another thread that I cracked the F-Zero X level storage data and began work on a level editor.
Now, before I go on: I am not in any way encouraging the use of piracy just to make use of what I'll present to you here in a moment. Downloading ROMs is strictly illegal and I don't want anyone to get the impression that I'm telling you it's a good idea to do so. (Generic disclaimer. It shouldn't be an issue in this forum)
__________
With that out of the way, here's the sparkly goodness:
The level editor programming is not yet complete, but there is a little feature you may be fond of. If you've heard of the F-Zero X Expansion Kit, then you know that there's a course creator/editor out there as well as two new cups full of official tracks that are competed in via online tournaments.
Well, the level editor isn't done, but I do have for you a patch that will let you play the Expansion Kit courses!
This program is a self-contained Windows executable that can load any version (North American, Japanese or European/PAL) of the F-Zero X ROM in either format (byte-swapped V64 or normal binary Z64) and allow you to configure the cups to your every whim; including the ability to add the Expansion Kit tracks in for play.
Both the DD-1 and DD-2 Cups from the Expansion Kit are included, and the classic four cups are also in there. Additionally, the classic extensions are included, which consist of Death Race and GP Ending. You will be able to play these courses in GP mode and Time Attack, now.
So without any further ado: the download:
Evil5.zip - F-Zero X Expansion Kit Patch
Please post your comments and complaints here.

And of course, the obligatory screenshots:
This is a picture of the utility itself. Enjoy its majesty.
This is a picture of Big Foot, one of the courses from the Expansion Kit.
This is evidence that you can fully configure the cups in the game. Jack 6, which is usually Port Town, has been replaced with Big Blue 3 from the Expansion Kit.
