Homebrew Super Mario 64 Port

[DSoryu]

Do you think there will ever be a simpler way to set this up down the line? These installation instructions are confusing me, probably because I've never used Docker before. From anyone who's done it, is Docker easy to figure out and follow along these instructions with without extensive coding knowledge?

Just follow this depending on the platform of your choice.

can the n64's blur filter really be considered antialiasing?, sure, there aren't many jagged edges, but at what cost?

Yes, as a matter of fact the N64's RDP's VI module had several postprocessing effects applied, not just "blur". AA was one of them. For a list of them check out the part about core options here:
https://www.libretro.com/index.php/...able-in-parallel-n64-right-now-for-retroarch/

For the moment you need to use a LLE plugin like parallell-rdp or angrylion to see many of the filters and effects the N64 applied. And yes it does create that very smooth picture the N64 was known for. Was AA overkill on the low and often interlaced picture of the N64? Some will say yes, others will say that it was part of the console's distinct look, much like the PS1's wobbly polygons.

Edit:
What's also interesting is how increasing the internal resolution in parallel rdp comes with a same integer increase in msaa:

Of course the msaa can be disabled altogether in the settings.

Yep, this one works basically perfect on n3ds. You will have to compile it yourself though, since the assets are included in the 3dsx.

Works like a champ, got something to play now that I'm done Paper Mario.

@Gericom You should make your own thread for this so it doesn't get lost in a question thread

 

[masterchan777]

Works great with HD models too, thx @Gericom !!

 

[HeartfeltDesu]

, I was curious as to whether the experts think there is a path for porting it to the 3DS as well.

I dunno, isn't a patched copy of SM64DS that supports gyro better?

Wait is this actually what it looks like or are you just trolling?

Please release the 3ds version

 

[RocketRobz]

Please release the 3ds version

Due to copyrighted content, you'll have to compile it yourself.

Also, would like to see 800px mode implemented in the port.

I installed the app you linked here. What else am I supposed to do. The information in the github link seems to imply that one already know's how to use this.
I'm lost at the first step.
"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."
I have my ROM file where is this location? After I place my ROM there do I just copy and paste the rest of the commend lines into there like CMD?

With the internet abuzz with news of a native Windows port of Super Mario 64, I was curious as to whether the experts think there is a path for porting it to the 3DS as well. The need is much lower thanks to @MasterFeizz but a native port would still be amazing. I suppose one would also need a tool to extract assets from a ROM to avoid copyright issues.

They just released the port for 3ds some days ago.
I'm a 'new member' of the forum (even if I went here lot of times for hacks, homebrew things etc., btw)
So I cannot post links so I'm going to "split" the GitHub link

github /sm64-port /sm64_3ds

It runs pretty good on a New 3ds XL console. Thanks for this magnificent port.

 

[Mikitok]

only new 3ds right?

There's nothing stopping you from trying Would be cool to see someone make an optimized version for o3ds and what cuts would be necessary.
