Super Mario 64 Plus
preview
By: Mors [W]
Super Mario 64 Plus is a fork of the Super Mario 64 PC Port that focuses on customizability and aims to add features that not only fix some of the issues found in the base game but also enhance the gameplay overall with extra options.

These features include (but not limited to):
- More responsive controls
- Improved camera
- Extended moveset
- The ability to continue the level after getting a star
- Optional extra modes
- 60FPS support via interpolation
- Various bug fixes

Please note that MFGG only hosts the launcher/builder for the game, and NOT the game itself. You will need to follow the steps given to you by the launcher and provide your own ROM file to build the game. Other necessary files will be downloaded by the launcher during this process, so an internet connection is required.


Before asking a question, please read the FAQ first:

https://github.com/MorsGames/sm64plus/wiki/Frequently-Asked-Questions


To download the launcher for Linux, head here:
https://github.com/MorsGames/sm64plus-launcher/releases/


You may also want to check the GitHub repository for more information:

https://github.com/MorsGames/sm64plus/


And lastly, here's a quick tip for you, you can hold the backspace key or the select button on your controller right after opening the launcher to enable the hidden settings.​

Latest version v1.1.3.1 will only full screen on my secondary display. I can't figure out how to set which screen it does this on. I've tried alt+enter and moving the window to the correct display and alt+enter again, but it still full screens on the other one. I've tried changing my windows 10 "make this my main display" setting, but that didn't make a difference

Great fork, but the game runs a bit wonky, there's a lot of frame skipping and the game runs at full un-skipped 60fps for a really but really few instances, the only renderers available on the options are direct3d 11 and direct3d 12. 11 having better performance than 12, but doesn't reach stable 60fps, so my request would be adding a renderer like opengl, specifically 2.1 because is the one i've use in render96.

im using chrome and I can't open ANY file so I'm not rushing, yelling, or demanding for it to happen. just please add Mario 64 plus for Chromebook and if you have and I cant work it just tells me some time cause I'm REALLY confused. nothing else as of the time

Use Linux mode on Chromebook and Compile the game that way.

I'm having a problem with Dire Dire Docks. After beating the first star usually the sub goes away and the poles appear, but for some reason the level state never changes. I also tried switching to the vanilla preset and it still didn't work. Am I doing something wrong or is this a bug.

You're supposed to play the fire sea, that's how it is in the original game as well.

Hello, I play on P64 with a generic usb n64 controller, is there a way to map it without using Joy2Key or some software like that? Thanks a lot!

How to update the game while still keeping my save? There's no update guide anywhere.

Just extract the file of the new version in your actual "SM64Plus" Folder then launch the game and choose "Pull and Rebuild"

Hey Mors, I was super curious after playing this game for a couple hours about its potential going forward in like, the SM64 modding scene? I'm definitely a super amateur when it comes to modding, but just seeing how fluid everything is here, I cant help but to think to myself, "what if romhacks like Star Road or Last Impact were implemented into this new game? HOW would they even be implemented? Could a PC port of other n64 games be a real potential now?"

Sorry if this is vague as all hell, but i wanted to pick your brain, especially as someone who added stuff within the pc port itself, on the potential of that type of stuff with this pc port. Is it possible at all? Is it just grueling and not really worth it? Is there a possibility of these kinds of ports becoming easier to create going forward?
Again, sorry if this is alot, i kinda stumbled on this port last night and im absolutely floored at how perfect it's running, it's just opened the floodgates in my head for the future of n64 game development now, let alone emulation.
Thanks for everything, I appreciate your time and efforts on this game!

It's not really possible to do this with ROM Hacks, or at least older ones that weren't made with the decomp. I know that there's a project trying to port Star Road to PC, but it's technically not a port of that mod but rather a recreation of it inside one of the forks of the PC port.

In any case, it's not something I'm interested in personally, and whether if it would be worth it or not depends on the person.

As for PC ports of other N64 games, it's... possible I suppose? It's possible for most video games out there on a technical level, it's just that it's an insane amount of work decompiling an entire game, and that amount of work increases as the game gets more complex.

Some of the textures appear black and purple, I tried to hold left, right and backspace for 5 seconds in the title screen of the launcher but the textures keep failing.

Actually, it WOULD work, it would be torture. Go to Program Files (x86) -> Super Mario 64 Plus -> sm64plus and paste everything from Render96 into their folders. Plus, you have to convert the textures to PNG. PLUS, you have to modify assets.json. (maybe THAT doesn't even work).

I wish I was able to get this to work, but the instructions are vague and the page to get the original game doesn't get SM64, just some weird text box. Also, what folder is the z64 file in?

The z64 file is the format the ROM should be. Download it at a location, just remember where you downloaded it.

Just a couple of things and suggestions:
Blast Away the Wall in Whomp's Fortress seems impossible in Daredevil Mode without glitches due to the forced damage.
Would it be possible to add an Exit Level option? I quite enjoy the Odyssey style staying inside worlds while you grab stars but once you leave the first floor it's very much a hassle going up/down a level to return to those levels
SM64ex's Mario Odyssey Conversion mod has a feature where if you collect say the star from Whomp in Whomp's Fortress, the level transitions to the next act so rather than leaving and entering, one could just go up to the top again and grab the next star. Would adding something similar here be possible?

Single issue:
I seem to be getting very small lag spikes, I'm not sure if they're just audio or gameplay but they'll occur every now and then when something custom such as the notification of which star you've picked up is displayed. Given I'm running a 3900X and a 2080 at 1440p, 144hz I don't think this is a hardware problem.

its not possible then

You have to put the textures in the files or reinstall the game, That's the only way.

Only version that runs on my PC, thanks <3 . Since the last update, 0o launcher no longer recognizes my controller. I used Windows 7 with a vibration driver and it recognized it, but now I've updated to Windows 10 and the driver makes the game close right when it opens, so I can't use it. But without it, the game doesn't recognize my controller.

I LOVED playing through SM64 with this mod! It was so fun, I played through the game on ALL 4 SAVE SLOTS! Because of this, if I wanted to play through the game from scratch again, I would have to delete one of my save files. In the next update, I would really appreciate if you added a option for extra pages of save slots.
