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.
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.
Run the following command and replace with us,jp, or eu.
docker image build --build-arg version=<version> -t sm64 .
Create a shell into the Docker image with this command:
docker run -it sm64 /bin/bash
You can find the built files in the /build folder.
You can also skip the previous step and copy the built rom out using the following command. Change the versions if you are not using a us build.
docker cp sm64:/sm64/build/us/sm64.us.z64 ./sm64.us.z64
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.
The build system has the following package requirements:
- binutils-mips >= 2.27
- python3 >= 3.6
- libaudiofile
- qemu-irix
Debian / Ubuntu
sudo apt install build-essential pkg-config git binutils-mips-linux-gnu python3 zlib1g-dev libaudiofile-dev
Download latest package from qemu-irix Releases
sudo dpkg -i qemu-irix-2.11.0-2169-g32ab296eef_amd64.deb
(Optional) Clone https://github.com/n64decomp/qemu-irix and follow the install instructions in the README.
Arch Linux
sudo pacman -S base-devel python audiofile
Install the following AUR packages:
- mips64-elf-binutils (AUR)
- qemu-irix-git (AUR)
Run make
to build the ROM (defaults to VERSION=us
). 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.
Examples:
make VERSION=jp -j4 # build (J) version instead with 4 jobs
make VERSION=eu COMPARE=0 # non-matching EU version still WIP
For Windows, 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.
Then follow the directions in the Linux installation section above.
macOS is currently unsupported as qemu-irix is unable to be built for macOS host. The recommended path is installing a Linux distribution under a VM.
