Harbour Masters, the team behind such PC ports as Ship of Harkinian (Ocarina of Time), 2ship2harkinian (Majora's Mask), Spaghetti Kart (Mario Kart 64), and Starship (Star Fox 64), have today released a new project: Ghostship. A PC port of Super Mario 64, Ghostship currently promises to offer a simple install experience akin to their previous projects, as well as high refresh rate gameplay, a modern configuaration UI, a debug menu, level select, and texture pack support.

With the project still in its early stages, there's still more yet to come. The team also plan to add both custom model support and a randomiser to the title.

Those interested can download it from the project's GitHub page, with updates shared both there and via the team's Discord server. As with their previous releases, you will need a ROM file to acquire the game's assets from. Placing this in the same folder as the app, this process is automatic and about as seamless as it can be.

Fans did it first. congrats on the release fellas!

If you listen closely, you can hear the Big N's lawyers scrambling to find a means to DMCA this

 

[MPRTwice]

Heck yeah!

id rather see a little more diversity when it comes to these ports.
and Banjo/DK64 with mod support and some QOL features would be so lovely man.

Oh... and Paper Mario, too kthx <3 <3

Banjo-Kazooie/Tooie and Paper Mario 64 would be great! A lot of potential for modding there:

-Banjo-Kazooie with all of Tooie's moves
-Banjo-Tooie with Banjo-Kazooie asset merger, to play all of the old levels in Tooie
-Paper Mario 64 with TTYD's battle and partner system, and ease of access to new textures
-Paper Mario 64 custom music player for each encounter

It wouldn't be just a bunch of "mumbo jumbo", would it?

I love all of that, yes please!

Given that this article came out around 3:11 AM, did the ship of harkinian actually sail in the morning?:

Exciting just for the Randomizer stuff really, nice!

That in and of itself is fine, but woking on a rather obsolete project instead of finishing their current ones leaves a bit of a bad taste. 2ship2harkinian for example lacks support for European versions of the game unlike Ship of Harkinian. I wish they would concentrate on stuff like that instead. That being said, it's their time and effort and I am not entitled to anything, but still it doesn't make a lot of sense if the benefit is marginal.

It's not their fault though, the MM Decomp was based on the US 1.0 Majora's Mask release, and it's most likely still incomplete in its current state, so that's why there is no support for the European release.
The people working on the PC Port is not the same people working on the decompilation of the games, just in case it was not clear.

 

[Xdqwerty]

Will this replace stuff like coop dx? Cuz I wish it doesnt

 

[xtrem3x]

I still have high hopes for a Bad Fur Day PC port. And Jet Force Gemini

 

[Lostbhoy]

Switch port when??

 

[naddel81]

what makes this different from sm64 plus that we already have and runs great?

 

[Osha]

We were overdue for a user-friendly compilation method, so I welcome this with open arms.

 

[SleepyLark]

What even are the best SM64 ports at the moment? The only one I know that's still gets updated is Coop DX

Could someone create Mario Maker 64 where you could create your own stages in Mario 64? That'd be sweet. Or maybe this already is? IDK.

Yeah but you're negative about just about everything, I'm not even sure you play games at all. Has absolutely nothing to do with Bethesda that just was random nonsense.

With the vast success of Super Mario Maker and its Switch sequel Super Mario Maker 2, Nintendo fans have long been calling for "Maker" titles for other iconic genres and series. In 2017 we saw Mega Man Maker, and since then we've seen a range of various Zelda-esque dungeon makers pop up (with another one due to release in just nine days!). While these releases do a fantastic job of capturing the spirit of their respective games, they're often released as PC games using unique assets such as to avoid scrutiny from the powers that be. What's far more unique is a...

Then stop acting like an entitled little bitch

 

[evansicaria]

i hope they make a twilight princess port too...

 

[The Frenchman]

Depends, as those who already installed the other port on their PC likely won't care.

This one compiles itself pretty easily, so when installing mods and messing arround it's much less of a hassle
