KartPad v0.3.0-preview.3

This import hotfix responds to a remaining iPad Files-provider failure reported
after Preview 2. It retains the Original Mario Kart Wii and Retro Rewind 6.12.4
dual-mode feature set and the A-button touch lock from Preview 2.

Game-data import

  • The manual picker now asks iOS to provide KartPad with a local copy instead
    of depending on open-in-place access from each Files provider.
  • The picker accepts generic files, data, disk images, and folders, then relies
    on KartPad's existing disc-header, revision, and extracted-tree validation.
  • Import from KartPad Folder checks .wbfs and .iso extensions before
    provider directory/package metadata, fixing disc images misreported as
    packages.
  • Temporary picker copies are removed after KartPad validates and privately
    stages the game data. Files placed directly in the KartPad folder are never
    removed.

After installing, use Import from KartPad Folder for a supported PAL
RMCP01 revision 0 .wbfs or .iso already in On My iPhone or iPad ->
KartPad. The manual picker is also supported, but iOS may need enough temporary
free storage to copy a 4.7 GB ISO before KartPad imports it.

Validation boundary

The focused import contracts, repository tests, property-list checks, complete
dual-mode Objective-C++ device build, deterministic packaging, and unsigned IPA
audit pass before publication. Reporter confirmation on the exact affected
iPad and Files provider remains requested.

Installation

The IPA is unsigned and must be re-signed before installation. Update in place
with the same bundle identifier and signing identity to preserve KartPad game
data and saves.

Distribution boundary

The IPA contains ahead-of-time translated game logic but no disc image,
extracted courses, textures, audio, Retro Rewind pack, 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.

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