1. Whatever character is used in the TT you plan on recording, be sure you have that character unlocked. Same goes with the vehicle and track.
2. Complete a TT on said track fast enough to unlock the expert staff ghost.
3. Edit your ISO to replace the expert staff ghost with the TT ghost you plan on recording. Guide to replace expert staff ghost - http://mkwii.com/showthread.php?tid=31
4. Make a GCT file with the Live Replay Code. Link to Code - http://mkwii.com/showthread.php?tid=1035
5. Race against the Expert Staff Ghost (you will copy it moves), wait for at least a split second then pause.
6. Exit back to the course selection screen (don't go back to main menu).
7. Now instead of choosing to race the expert ghost, choose Solo Race.
8. Now the character will race with live replay code as if it was a Live TT.
9. Once the character finishes the race, it will make an actual Victory result/celebration along with the 3lap/flap times flashing in red because you beat the temporary PR that was set earlier to initially unlock the expert staff ghost from Step 3.
10. Congratz! Some notes....
- This obviously won't work if the recorded TT is slower than temp PR used to unlock expert staff ghost.
- Flap won't flash red if the temp PR had a better flap time.

What is the Homebrew Channel/HBC?
The Homebrew Channel is a hack/exploit installed on your Wii as a Channel. It allows you to hack your games and/or console.

NOTE: You will need an SD card. If you are below system menu 4.0, you can only use SD cards 2GB or less in size. I recommend buying the Sandisk 2 GB standard SD card. If you are on 4.0/4.1, I recommend buying a Sandisk 4GB SDHC (which are actually cheaper than the 2GB cards because of supply & demand). You can view this thread HERE for other options on SD card compatibility.

Guide is designed for use in Linux. Guide assumes you are somewhat familiar with WIT & SZS Tools. NOTE: This also works for WBFS files.

1. Go to http://maschell.de/ghostdatabase/ to choose a ghost to download. You can use a different site but be sure the ghost has it's correct name for MKWii. If you aren't sure download a ghost from the site above matching the track of the ghost you are using and see what the name is for the ghost you downloaded.
2. Download the ghost.
3. Make a copy of your ISO, rename it whatever helps you know its a copy ready for editing.
4. Open a terminal: cd to the location of your copied ISO
5. wit extract ExampleTest.iso /home/yourusername/Test (do not create Test folder beforehand or else WIT will show an error, the wit command will create the folder for you)
6. Navigate to the /home/yourusername/Test/DATA/files/race/TimeAttack/ghost2 folder (you will not have a DATA folder if your ISO/WBFS is fully scrubbed)
7. Remove any ghost(s) you want and then add in the replacement ghost(s).
8. cd /home/yourusername

How to Fill in X,Y,Z Values for Cheat Codes

This page will teach you how to fill in X,Y, and Z values of a code. For demonstration, we will be using the NTSC-U Remove Tagname code. You can find many many cheat codes in the Codes Forum HERE

A list of X,Y, and Z values can be found in this thread HERE

NTSC U Remove Tagname Code:
2834XXXX YYYYZZZZ
048A4414 2EDBE6FF
E0000000 00000000
2834XXXX YYYYZZZZ
048A4414 3F800000
E0000000 80008000

XXXX = Your Controller address, all XXXX values will differ depending on Player/Port 1,2 3, etc and what region your MKWii game is (NTSC-U, PAL, etc) For demo purposes, we will be using the GCN controller via port 1 for this code. Since the code is for NTSC-U, we will need the NTSC-U XXXX value for GCN port 1. That value is 3E80. Let's go plug in our XXXX values now.

28343E80 YYYYZZZZ
048A4414 2EDBE6FF
E0000000 00000000
28343E80 YYYYZZZZ
048A4414 3F800000
E0000000 80008000

The next step is to fill in the Z values. We will do the Y values last since there are two different methods for applying Y values. ZZZZ = Your Button values. These are region-free, but they differ depending on what controller you are using. Wii Wheel and Wii Chuck are the only controllers that share the same Z values. We want our Start button to activate the code and our L button to deactivate. ZZZZ value for Start button is 1080, and for L button is 00C0. Let's now plug in our ZZZZ values.

28343E80 YYYY1080
048A4414 2EDBE6FF
E0000000 00000000
28343E80 YYYY00C0
048A4414 3F800000
E0000000 80008000

It's time for the YYYY values. There are two methods to achieve the YYYY values depending on how you want to turn on/off your code(s).
Method #1 - Turning on/off your code while no other buttons are being pressed.
Method #2 - Turning on/off your code while other buttons are being pressed.
Method #1 is the easiest. You simply plug in 0000 for YYYY and you're done. Your completed code with method #1 looks like this...

28343E80 00001080
048A4414 2EDBE6FF
E0000000 00000000
28343E80 000000C0
048A4414 3F800000
E0000000 80008000

Method #2 requires a hex equation. That equation is YYYY = FFFF - ZZZZ. For assistance, you can use a Hex Calculator. Here's a good one - https://www.calculator.net/hex-calculator.html

For Start button, our equation is FFFF - 1080 = YYYY. YYYY thus equals EF7F.

Do the same equation for the L button and your result for YYYY is FF3F. Plug in the Y values and you will have finished your code via Method #2.

28343E80 EF7F1080
048A4414 2EDBE6FF
E0000000 00000000
28343E80 FF3F00C0
048A4414 3F800000
E0000000 80008000

Congratz!

NOTE: You need HBC installed before doing this guide. Tutorial to install HBC is HERE
