The Preservation Project

This repo contains a modified decompilation of Super Mario 64 which aims to recreate the SpaceWorld 1995 build.

As of June 2022, The Preservation Project has become an open source project, meaning the community can contribute to it to make it a perpetually improving recreation.

Please create any issues you find and feel free to pull request, any contributions are appreciated.

Original assets, to-do lists and more can soon be found in a special repository.

Installation

Docker

1. Copy baserom(s) for asset extraction

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. Create docker image

docker build -t sm64 .

3. Build

To build we simply have to mount our local filesystem into the docker container and build.

# for example if you have baserom.us.z64 in the project root
docker run --rm --mount type=bind,source="$(pwd)",destination=/sm64 sm64 make VERSION=us -j4

# if your host system is linux you need to tell docker what user should own the output files
docker run --rm --mount type=bind,source="$(pwd)",destination=/sm64 --user $UID:$UID sm64 make VERSION=us -j4

Resulting artifacts can be found in the build directory.

Linux

1. Copy baserom(s) for asset extraction

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 build dependencies

The build system has the following package requirements:

  • binutils-mips >= 2.27
  • python3 >= 3.6
  • libaudiofile
  • libcapstone-dev

Debian / Ubuntu

sudo apt install build-essential pkg-config git binutils-mips-linux-gnu python3 zlib1g-dev libaudiofile-dev libcapstone-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:

3. Build ROM

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

Windows

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

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.
