Hi,
I'm no dev or whatever, just tinkering with 3D modelling and printing and electronics, my name is Nazmi from France and I am trying to get started to mod/fork supertuxkart and to know how to make new tracks/karts.
why ?
I think you might know the brony fandom, it happens that bronies like games with pony characters in them (there is a lot of them but no Pony Kart at the moment, there was a team that wanted to start from scratch and they eventually stopped the development, I'm no programmer but I don't think it's a good idea to reinvent the wheel so forking SuperTuxKart in "SuperPonyKart" might be nice as the SuperTuxKart game is working and open source (GNU GPL2), maybe by just changing the theme, name, music and characters/karts, I started to do some stuff (modelling especially) but I will discuss that in a more appropriate topic as it's just an introduction.
For the moment I have some difficulties using the tools to export the karts and to make the animations.
