ATTENTION

Any further development is now posted over at https://github.com/Gamebunn/Cream64_PC, this repo is no longer in use.

Super Cream 64 - The Grand Finale

A fork of AloXado320/sm64ex-alo, which is a fork of sm64pc/sm64ex with additional features.

Overall additions since the last build:

• You can now finally fly! Originally made for Cream 64, introduced in Chao Bandstand and now it's finally here. Works like Sonic Heroes: get about 3-4 seconds of total flight time. When you're not moving, you lose no stamina.
• Be whoever you wanna be! Bunch of alt outfits are available for you to choose from the very start. (PC Version only): Each alt has its own matching Cheese alt and a handful have a custom Vanilla alt.
• Brand new levels replacing three existing levels: Secret Aquarium, Vanish Cap under the Moat and Wing Mario over the Rainbow. Each still have a single secret star and the vanish switch is still there too.
• Music has been updated. Mostly the same but with some new tracks scattered here and there. A bit more variety now with a few repeats.
• Gemerl is now actually beatable in the rematch. And even if you're struggling, you can always fly around on the other side.
• Tails, Blaze and Marine have their own little side stories now alongside Amy. The number of encounters is now listed at the end of each of their dialog boxes.
• And some smaller fixes

Building SC64

Make sure to grab the latest version of MSYS2 from their website. Seems that initial bug has been fixed now and the latest version should be able to compile hacks now.

If you haven't built with the normal sm64ex/sm64ex-alo builds, look at those first for a proper tutorial and getting the proper dependencies for install. Then once you got the hang of it, come back here.

1. do git clone https://github.com/Gamebunn/sm64ex-alo.git to somewhere on your PC with MSYS2. Make sure it's a directory with full access. Then cd sm64ex-alo to get into the folder itself.
2. download the extra assets needed for the repo. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1-TAw3tel0Xaj6LZF4KMWoa5NqFSIYsiN/view?usp=sharing
3. find your own US copy of sm64, rename it to baserom.us.z64 and put it in the root of your clone.
4. dump the contents of the assets folder into the root of where you cloned the git
5. go ahead and compile with make. If you got a decent CPU, you can increase the compile speed with make -j4.

Helpful build additions:

HIGH_FPS_PC=1 - Game runs at 60 FPS

NODRAWINGDISTANCE=1 - All objects are shown at all times

Example: make NODRAWINGDISTANCE=1 -j4

Currently the only build that works for this is just for PC. The others have not been tested and are not guaranteed to work. If you do wish to try, go right away. If you're also just looking for the N64 build, it's available right here.

Known Bugs

• Certain stars show up transparent even when not collected (Visual bug): Aware but not sure what's going on. Still functions properly otherwise.
• Going to the Displays option crashes the game (SM64EX conflict): Since sm64ex-alo removed a setting in display (3 point filter for textures), the game doesn't know what to do and crashes. The current fix is to just delete your sm64config.txt file in Appdata/Roaming/sm64ex and let it generate a new one.

Building

Clone the repository:

git clone https://github.com/AloXado320/sm64ex-alo
cd sm64ex-alo

Note: On Unix systems you may need to do this before doing any changes:

git config core.fileMode false
chmod -R 777 .

Copy baserom(s) for asset extraction:

For each version (jp/us/eu/sh) for which you want to build an executable, put an existing ROM at ./baserom.<VERSION>.z64 for asset extraction.

By default it builds the US version.

To build for N64, click here.

Note: Only tested in WSL, works on (Debian / Ubuntu) as well, other distros untested.

Install build dependencies:

sudo apt install -y binutils-mips-linux-gnu build-essential git libcapstone-dev pkgconf python3 gcc-mips-linux-gnu

Build:

# if you have more cores available, you can increase the -j parameter
make -j4 TARGET_N64=1 

ROM location:

build/us/sm64.us.f3dzex.z64

To build for Android, click here.

Note: Only Termux build is supported.

Install Termux

Install the app from F-Droid here

Make sure you use this version, as the Google Play version is outdated.

Install build dependencies

pkg install git wget make python getconf zip apksigner clang binutils

Copy in your baserom:

Do this using your default file manager (on AOSP, you can slide on the left and there will be a "Termux" option there), or using Termux.

termux-setup-storage
cp /sdcard/path/to/your/baserom.z64 ./baserom.us.z64

Install external dependencies

cd platform/android/ && ./getkhrplatform.sh && ./getSDL.sh && cd ../..

Build

# if you have more cores available, you can increase the -j parameter
# On Termux, TARGET_ANDROID=1 is defined automatically in Makefile
make -j4

Install apk:

xdg-open build/us_android/sm64.us.f3dex2e.apk
