KartPad v0.2.0-preview.3

This maintenance preview fixes the iPhone and iPad first-launch picker so a
supported WBFS/ISO remains selectable when a Files provider or another
installed app assigns it a different file type.

Fixed

  • The game-data picker now accepts generic files and folders before KartPad
    performs its own validation. This prevents supported .iso and .wbfs
    files from appearing visible but unselectable.
  • KartPad still validates the selected extension, Wii disc header, RMCP01
    region, revision, and extracted game data before activation.

Included

  • The complete Preview 2 iPhone/iPad feature set: touch controls, motion
    steering, controller support, private game-data import, saves, local
    multiplayer, and the Metal runtime.
  • A full ARM64 app containing the ahead-of-time translated retail executable
    graph.
  • Installation guidance, provenance, rights information, and exact third-party
    license notices inside the downloadable unsigned IPA.

Distribution boundary

The IPA contains translated game logic but no disc image, extracted courses,
textures, audio, saves, Apple signing identity, or provisioning profile. This
is a free, unofficial community preview with unresolved upstream and game-code
redistribution rights. See RIGHTS_AND_LICENSES.md before redistributing or
expanding its release channel.

Known limitations

  • The IPA must be re-signed before installation.
  • Only supported PAL RMCP01 revision 0 game data is accepted.
  • Online multiplayer passes the local Mac-to-iPad-Simulator flow, but public
    service, external-client, resilience, and physical-device acceptance remain
    open.
  • Stable performance is not yet accepted across every track or device.
  • Retro Rewind content is not included.

Do not upload game images, extracted game data, saves, signing credentials, or
device containers when requesting support.
