MrThunderwing:
This hidden stage sounds intriguing. Is it something that's graphically similar to one of the pre-existing 30 stages or is it like an entirely new environment?

Howard_Casto:
It's nothing that exciting.  You know where Holly's current course has about half of the or2 stages and about half are the or2sp?  Well it's basically the stages that were left out.... only the challenges themselves are completely new.

I vaguely remember that there might have been a rumor about a dropped 4th girl.... if so, maybe this is her stuff?  It is referenced in the game exe though, so maybe it's a hidden mode none of us have managed to unlock?

Been looking at the remaining files.... Request_course_SP and OR2 are the c2c layouts for the other two girls and basically are the same as the standard branched files for the main game.... Those individual stage goals I was looking for earlier are in the various "goals" scripts (who would have thunk it?) and Flag man's stages are in "Races".  Flag man's stuff is interesting.... for all the other modes the course layout and the scripting code for the various stuff in the stages are in separate files, but his seems to have everything dumped into one file.  It might be the key to figuring out some of the scripting in terms of placing events on the tracks and ect…  I still haven't figured out what the extra courses in the 15 stage scripts are for.... I'll leave them exposed in the editor, but with a warning that I don't know what they do. 

Howard_Casto:
So I added support for the three girls' coast 2 coast scripts.  I'll add in Flag man's courses as well as the individual goals, but that'll take time as they are a bit more complex.  I want to go ahead and get all of this mapped while it's still fresh in my mind, because it's complicated enough to where I might forget where I left off if I come back to it later. 

I'm going to spend a few min digging around in the memory for a bit tonight as I might be able to access the psp mix properly.... I'm guessing it was supposed to go in that empty slot next to holly's portrait in the C2C menu, so it might be like the Driver's License menu where the unfinished code is still in there and you have to manually change the menu number.

Howard_Casto:
I didn't have much luck... I can change the game file paths just fine but they crash upon loading.... swapping out and renaming is the only way to get it to load.  There is an extra, unused slot in the menus though.... has a blacked out silhouette of Holly, so I guess she was going to have two courses. 

Howard_Casto:
I was thinking about the "goals" files and I just realized how stupid it would be to add them.  Time trials allow you to access every stage, so there's really no need unless you wanted to do a custom goal course but the chance of anyone wanting to do that is probably slim to none.  I'll focus on the flag man stages instead since they are the only true races in the game and it might be fun to mod them.
