Super Mario 64

This repo contains a full decompilation of Super Mario 64 (J) and (U). The source and data have been decompiled but complete naming and documentation all of the code and data is still a work in progress. Decompiling the (E) ROM is also an ongoing effort.

It builds the following ROMs:

  • sm64.jp.z64 sha1: 8a20a5c83d6ceb0f0506cfc9fa20d8f438cafe51
  • sm64.us.z64 sha1: 9bef1128717f958171a4afac3ed78ee2bb4e86ce

This repo does not include all assets necessary for compiling the ROMs. A prior copy of the game is required to extract the required assets.

Installation

Linux

  1. For each version (jp/us/eu) that you want to build a ROM for, put an existing ROM at ./baserom.<version>.z64 for asset extraction.

  2. Install the following packages:

Debian / Ubuntu

  • git
  • binutils-mips-linux-gnu / mips64-elf (>= 2.27)
  • python3 (>= 3.7)
  • build-essential
  • pkg-config
  • zlib1g-dev
  • libaudiofile-dev

Arch Linux

  1. Install qemu-irix

3.a Options: 1. Clone https://github.com/n64decomp/qemu-irix to somewhere and follow its install instructions in the README. 2. Optionally, grab the prebuilt qemu-irix from the Releases section. 3. (Arch) Use AUR package qemu-irix-git

3.b (For options 1 or 2), copy executable qemu-irix from irix-linux-user to somewhere convenient with a relatively short path.

mkdir -p /opt/qemu-irix/bin
cp irix-linux-user/qemu-irix /opt/qemu-irix/bin

3.c Define QEMU_IRIX environment variable in your ~/.bashrc to point to this qemu-irix executable.

export QEMU_IRIX=/opt/qemu-irix/bin/qemu-irix
  1. Run make to build the ROM (defaults to us version). Make sure your path to the repo is not too long or else this process will error, as the emulated IDO compiler cannot handle paths longer than 255 characters. Build examples:
make VERSION=jp -j4       # build (J) version instead with 4 jobs
make VERSION=eu COMPARE=0 # non-matching EU version still WIP

Windows

For Windows, install WSL and a distro of your choice and follow the Linux guide.
