Feel free to report bugs and contribute, but remember, there must be no upload of any copyrighted asset.
Run ./extract_assets.py --clean && make clean or make distclean to remove ROM-originated content.
Please contribute first to the nightly branch. New functionality will be merged to master once they're considered to be well-tested.

New features
- Options menu with various settings, including button remapping.
- Optional external data loading (so far only textures and assembled soundbanks), providing support for custom texture packs.
- Optional analog camera and mouse look (using Puppycam).
- Optional OpenGL1.3-based renderer for older machines, as well as the original GL2.1, D3D11 and D3D12 renderers from Emill's n64-fast3d-engine.
- Option to disable drawing distances.
- Optional model and texture fixes (e.g. the smoke texture).
- Skip introductory Peach & Lakitu cutscenes with the
--skip-introCLI option - Cheats menu in Options (activate with
--cheatsor by pressing L thrice in the pause menu). - Support for both little-endian and big-endian save files (meaning you can use save files from both sm64-port and most emulators), as well as an optional text-based save format.
Recent changes in Nightly have moved the save and configuration file path to %HOMEPATH%\AppData\Roaming\sm64pc on Windows and $HOME/.local/share/sm64pc on Linux. This behaviour can be changed with the --savepath CLI option.
For example --savepath . will read saves from the current directory (which not always matches the exe directory, but most of the time it does);
--savepath '!' will read saves from the executable directory.
