- This repo contains a full decompilation of Super Mario 64 of the following releases: Japan (jp), North America (us), Europe (eu), Shindou (sh) and iQue Player (cn).
- Naming and documentation of the source code and data structures are in progress.
It builds the following ROMs:
- sm64.jp.z64
sha1: 8a20a5c83d6ceb0f0506cfc9fa20d8f438cafe51
- sm64.us.z64
sha1: 9bef1128717f958171a4afac3ed78ee2bb4e86ce
- sm64.eu.z64
sha1: 4ac5721683d0e0b6bbb561b58a71740845dceea9
- sm64.sh.z64
sha1: 3f319ae697533a255a1003d09202379d78d5a2e0
- sm64.cn.z64
sha1: 2e1db2780985a1f068077dc0444b685f39cd90ec
This repo does not include all assets necessary for compiling the ROMs. A prior copy of the game is required to extract the assets.
- Install prerequisites:
sudo apt install -y binutils-mips-linux-gnu build-essential git pkgconf python3
- Clone the repo from within Linux:
git clone https://github.com/n64decomp/sm64.git
- Place a Super Mario 64 ROM called
baserom.<VERSION>.z64
into the project folder for asset extraction, whereVERSION
can bejp
,us
,eu
,sh
, orcn
. - Run
make
to build. Specify the version throughmake VERSION=<VERSION>
. Add-j4
to improve build speed (hardware dependent).
Ensure the repo path length does not exceed 255 characters. Long path names result in build errors.
Install WSL and a distro of your choice following Windows Subsystem for Linux Installation Guide for Windows 10. We recommend either Debian or Ubuntu 18.04 Linux distributions under WSL. Note: WSL1 does not currently support Ubuntu 20.04.
Next, clone the SM64 repo from within the Linux shell:
git clone https://github.com/n64decomp/sm64.git
Then continue following the directions in the Linux installation section below.
There are 3 steps to set up a working build.
The build system has the following package requirements:
- binutils-mips
- pkgconf
- python3 >= 3.6
Dependency installation instructions for common Linux distros are provided below:
To install build dependencies:
sudo apt install -y binutils-mips-linux-gnu build-essential git pkgconf python3
To install build dependencies:
sudo pacman -S base-devel python
Install the following AUR packages:
- mips64-elf-binutils (AUR)
Most modern Linux distributions should have equivalent packages to the other two listed above. You may have to use a different version of GNU binutils. Listed below are fully compatible binutils distributions with support in the makefile, and examples of distros that offer them:
mips64-elf-
(Arch AUR)mips-linux-gnu-
(Ubuntu and other Debian-based distros)mips64-linux-gnu-
(RHEL/CentOS/Fedora)
You may also use Docker to handle installing an image with minimal dependencies.
For each version (jp/us/eu/sh/cn) for which you want to build a ROM, put an existing ROM at
./baserom.<VERSION>.z64
for asset extraction.
Run make
to build the ROM (defaults to VERSION=us
).
Other examples:
make VERSION=jp -j4 # build (J) version instead with 4 jobs
make VERSION=eu COMPARE=0 # build (EU) version but do not compare ROM hashes
Resulting artifacts can be found in the build
directory.
The full list of configurable variables are listed below, with the default being the first listed:
VERSION
:jp
,us
,eu
,sh
,cn
GRUCODE
:f3d_old
,f3d_new
,f3dex
,f3dex2
,f3dzex
COMPARE
:1
(compare ROM hash),0
(do not compare ROM hash)NON_MATCHING
: Use functionally equivalent C implementations for non-matchings. Also will avoid instances of undefined behavior.CROSS
: Cross-compiler tool prefix (Example:mips64-elf-
).
With macOS, you may either use Homebrew or Docker.
Install Homebrew and the following dependencies:
brew update
brew install coreutils make pkg-config tehzz/n64-dev/mips64-elf-binutils
For each version (jp/us/eu/sh/cn) for which you want to build a ROM, put an existing ROM at
./baserom.<VERSION>.z64
for asset extraction.
Use Homebrew's GNU make because the version included with macOS is too old.
gmake VERSION=jp -j4 # build (J) version instead with 4 jobs
After installing and starting Docker, create the docker image. This only needs to be done once.
docker build -t sm64 .
To build, mount the local filesystem into the Docker container and build the ROM with docker run sm64 make
.
docker run --rm --mount type=bind,source="$(pwd)",destination=/sm64 sm64 make VERSION=us -j4
For a Linux host, Docker needs to be instructed which user should own the output files:
docker run --rm --mount type=bind,source="$(pwd)",destination=/sm64 --user $UID:$GID sm64 make VERSION=us -j4
Resulting artifacts can be found in the build
directory.
