wow, sucks to be you

maybe you should read threads and find out how to use the plugin and not just say it don't work for you

Vanit, some surfaces are comprised of more than one texture pasted together. Sometimes textures don't end up mapped perfectly and the result is a 1 pixel overlap between them. My guess is that the bottom texture is ontop of the upper one. When one scales the texures up 4x the gap also increases by 4x. Thus, to fix the problem crop off the bottom 4 pixels of the top texture and place it ontop of the original texture. This also happens to the picture of princess peach on the front of the castle on SM64. This is what I did and it looks perfect.
Pic1: basic fix leaves a trensparent gap on the bottom (shown white here).
Pic2: clone the bottom pixels to fill the rest, use this if you get a gap between the two textures

I'm using Alex Penev's sweet programs to aid my process, I have the head section about 1/3 of the way done

I'm also using a GameShark code to change Yoshi's name to "M.Koopa"

The code is:
Yoshi = "M.Koopa"

800EFDDD002E
800EFDDE004B
800EFDDF006F
800EFDE0006F
800EFDE10070

As for progress :

 

[Kerber2k]

If your texture dont load its because you have the wrong rom dump most likely. The easiest way to find out is to read the rom's internal name it should be MARIOKART64, then and only then with the textures load. btw I did the clone 1pixel of information thing on my neon faces, it didnt really work all to well ;( WIP none the least.

 

[Kerber2k]

Animated faces on RR complete, but I didnt waste all my time aligning them because I dont think they all overlap the same way...anyhow ill probably just post them here so anyone who wants to try to fiddle with them to get them to align properly will be allowed, and apreciated. Now on with the map tweaks.

 

[Kerber2k]

Heres Princess...didnt even bother to chop her up and load her in-game because im just going to finish Bowser, Wario and Toad first.

 

[minkster]

You have some sweet mods goin on there

 

[[ROLO]]

dude you are doing an excellent job for a great game that probably is one of the most played today (I still play it very often in multiplayer) and with your pack it's going to be a lot better

 

[Kerber2k]

Yea I often find myself playing Mariokart64 with my friends on the weekends. arty:

 

[Vanit]

Kerb: You might want to fix up your starting lines (I also had this problem at first when I was doing my own MK mod), because 2 squares seem to meet in the middle.

 

[Kerber2k]

Yea thats somthing I noticed a long time ago, forgot and then started on the Rainbow Road thing..you know how it is with being side-tracked.

 

[Vanit]

Yeah... I better do something to bring my Goemon pack back onto page one.

You might find this somewhat useful, it is a HiRez title of the start screen of Mario Kart. I found it from an older thread and thought it would be useful for this project.
