Super Mario 64 Hacks Wikia is a collaborative encyclopedia of the many ROM hacks and edits of Super Mario 64 and its remakes. These hacks use various emulators to bring new life into the nostalgic classic! This site allows all fans of them to create and edits pages of the plethora of hacks, creators, stages, enemies, and any other interesting information. Correct ROM and patch. Q: The game freezes after the title screen. A: Either your ROM is unvalid (ie, an already modified ROM) or you have applied the wrong patch (there's a separate patch for MAC users who have extended the ROM with any version of the ROM Extender before 1.3).

Version 2.0 and up will run most hacks fine as well, but has problems with some of them. If this has been better with Version 2.2 and up is unknown.
General problems
Some errors preventing certain hacks from running can be solved this way:
Open the Rom, after opening, click 'Options' then 'Settings...'. Click on the Options tab, and uncheck 'Hide advanced settings'. Click the 'OK' button and open the setting again. More tabs should be open now. From there, click 'Rom Settings'. Set 'Memory Size' to 8MB and 'Counter Factor' to 1.

This is the first ever 'complete' hack of Mario 64. None of the original
levels have been used and the gamplay has been changed in many aspects.
Main Features:
--------------
- 38 stars in about 10 levels
- A Day/night cycle replacing (most) act selectors
- Choose to play as Mario or Luigi
- Modified enemies, objects and bosses (too many to list!)
- Custom music, including one original song (the town 'night' music).
- A new final boss fight
To switch between Mario and Luigi in the title screen, press D-pad Left
(Luigi) or D-Pad Right (Mario).
There are also many 'invisible' modifications that make make this hack work:
extended memory support, a new collision pointer system (lookup tables instead
of hardcoded pointers), modified script commands and a bunch of other minor
stuff. The source code for all these hacks will be available on my site futurely.
Thanks to the people who have contributed to this hack:
Celux - Secret Woods level and major help on the underground area.
RDX - Some music ports made with mml2m64
VL-Tone - Luigi model, as available from TT64 v0.5.9 onwards.
ZZT32 - a pretty cool guy :D who helped me working with MIPS-GCC.
Darkdata - Title screen background and name suggestion.
Stevoisiak - Beta testing some early versions and suggesting some nice improvements
Kostecki - Correcting some text.

YouTube trailer (slightly outdated):

WARNING: READ THE README.TXT FILE FOR INSTRUCTIONS ON PATCHING YOUR ROM AND SETTING YOUR EMULATOR **
Download v1.1.
Programs needed to extend/patch your ROM:
VL-Tone's Mario 64 ROM Extender (if you are using Linux, try Cellar Dweller's alternate extender)
PPF-o-Matic 3.0 (there's also a MAC version at romhacking.net)
Have fun finding all the missing stars!


Applying the patch
------------------
You'll need a Mario 64 US (NTSC) ROM, usually called 'Super Mario 64 (U)!.z64'
in order to play this hack. Here's how you should proceed:
1) Extend your ROM with VL-Tone's Mario 64 ROM Extender:
http://homepage.mac.com/qubedstudios/Mario64Tools.htm.
If you are on Linux, you can try also Cellar Dweller's 'alternate' extender:
http://desktop64.homeip.net:8086/newextender-0.02.tar.gz
2) Apply the PPF patch on the extended ROM with PPF-o-Matic 3.0:
http://www.romhacking.net/utils/356/ (there's also a Mac version hosted at the
same site)
The ROM should be loaded on the 'ISO file' field (PPF is a format designed for
the Playstation, but works very well for N64 ROMS too) and the .ppf file on
the Patch field.
Note: If you are a Mac user, you'll have to use the ROM Extender v1.3b, which has
been released a few days ago (at the moment of this writing).
These two steps should be simple, but in case you're having trouble,
a tutorial will be uploaded to http://sites.google.com/site/messiaen64/themissingstars
Setting up your emulator
------------------------
Once you have sucessfully extended and patched your ROM, there might be a
few adjustments needed depending on the emulator you are using, because this
hack, unlike the original Mario 64 game, uses extended memory (the Expansion
Pak) to get rid of some limitations.
Mupen, MupenPlus, SixtyForce and 1964 doesn't require any special adjustments.
Nemu64 can't play this hack because it doesn't accepts the extended Mario 64 ROM.
In Project 64 (my personal recomendation), you'll have to change the 'Default Memory Size'
to 8MB. To do this, click on Options -> Settings -> Options and uncheck 'Hide Advanced
Settings'. Click OK and now do Options -> Settings -> Advanced Settings -> Default Memory
Size -> 8MB.
Now load the Missing Stars ROM. If the title screen doesn't show up, go in
Options -> Settings -> ROM Settings -> Memory Size -> 8MB.
Load the ROM again and the hack should be running.
Video Plugins
-------------
There might be some minor graphical glitches depending on the plugin you are using.
Jabo's Direct 3.D 1.6 (do not use version 1.5.2) and glN64 should give you the
best video output. A more detailed plugin report may be uploaded to my site futurely.
About the camera
----------------
Mario 64 uses a set of hardcoded camera positions for each level and I couldn't
get rid of it (so far) in this hack. Some jumps will require more camera work
(the c-buttons) than the original game, and some angles aren't easily acessible.
FAQ:
----
Q: PJ64 says the game is trying to read from unmapped space.

Sm64 Rom Hack

A: Read again the part about enabling extended memory.
Q: PJ64 says the game is in a permanent loop that can't be exited.
A: Something went wrong in the patching process. See if you used the
correct ROM and patch.
Q: The game freezes after the title screen.
A: Either your ROM is unvalid (ie, an already modified ROM) or you have applied the
wrong patch (there's a separate patch for MAC users who have extended the ROM with
any version of the ROM Extender before 1.3).
Q: PPF-o-Matic doesn't show the extended ROM in its file selector.
A: Change the file type filter to All Files (*.*).
Q: I can't find metal caps, red coins, stars in a specific level, etc.
A: Listen to what the NPCs have to say, they give good hints about the less obvious stars.
Q: I have found all 38 stars, what do I do now?
A: Just return to the initial area for further instructions.
Q: How can I select Mario or Luigi in the File Select screen?
A: Use the D-pad Right and D-Pad Left buttons.
Q: My color code doesn't work!
A: The RAM location of Mario colors has been changed because of dynamic memory allocation,
so your color codes won't work and unfortunately I can't help it.
Q: Textures packs don't work!
A: I'm not sure how texture packs work on the emulator side, but my guess is that unless
someone does a hi-res pack specifically for 'The Missing Stars' they won't work. I'm not
sure how well a texture pack would work because texture coordinates would still be messed
up as they are in the hack.
Q: Can I translate your hack to ______ ?
A: Yes, but only if you have already done something similar and know the basics of translation
like using a text table. You can get in contact with me through YouTube (user 'frauber').
Q: Can I edit the ROM in Toad's Tool 64?
A: Toad's Tool 64 can't open the ROM due to some modifications in the level script commands.
Q: Will it run on a real N64?
A: Not yet, but I'm working on that for a future update.

Some history and afterthoughts ...
----------------------------------
Working on this hack has been both rewarding and frustrating. Those who know something
about the inner workings on Mario64 and the limitations of the tools available during the
time I worked on this hack will recognize that this isn't an usual hack. One year ago, I doubt
anyone (including me!) would think it would be possible to reach this result with such limited
methods. Even though a lot of the level design is oriented torwards getting around technical
limitations, be it hardcoded stuff, collision bugs, slowdowns, I'm very satisfied with the
end result.

I begantinkering with Mario 64during the first semester of 2008.I had known about the existence of
Toad's Tool 64 for a while, but it wasn't until VL-Tone came with the 'Flatworld Battlefield' that
I really became interested in it.

Most of my initial effort went into understanding the polygon/collision formats and how the level/geometry/behavior scripts were laid out from
VL-Tone's Mario 64 Hacking Docs. Once I had enough knowledge, I started doing some simple level
hacks using a bunch of custom objects, in an extensively modified version of Flatworld which I
called 'Platform Battlefield'. There were a bunch of problems with this method, as objects are
only drawn when you are near enough from them, resulting in a very artificial experience.
I was almost giving up when Celux came with the amazing 'Secret Woods' level done with my
Platform Battlefield patch. I was really amazed at how much he had done with my custom objects,
however there were still the same problems: the level was slow as hell (pratically unplayable)
and objects were only shown when Mario was very near from them. By that time I was learning some
MIPS assembly in order to delve further into the game programming (scripts are only the top of
the iceberg!) and thanks to the help of Cellar Dweller's notes, who has done plenty of low-level
work with Mario64, I eventually came up with a patch that solved the problem. The key point was
that whenever the collision for a specific object was not loaded (when Mario isn't near enough),
the game automatically stops drawing the object, regardless of the drawing distance setting.
By patching a collision routine, I got the game to display the objects regardless of Mario
distance while still keeping the collision only loaded when Mario is near enough.
With that set, I knew that a full hack would be possible using only objects as level geometry.
I initially proposed it as a team hack, and anyone who could, like Celux, make a nice level
around these custom objects would get in. That didn't work. Many people started working on
levels and after a while gave up, and I don't blame them because it's really hard to get a
decent result. Meanwhile, I worked on a few more assembly hacks, such as the day-night system,
the play as Mario or Luigi option using VL-Tone's model and extended memory support, which will
be futurely integrated into Toad's Tool 64. When I realized I would be all by myself on such
large project, I got a bit demotivated and stopped working on the hack for some months. During
that period, I mostly hacked the music format and learned about C programming. I had the idea
of writing a music importer, however I couldn't deal with the complexity of MIDI.
By that time, I started hanging around the former Zelda Coalition mostly to share my findings
on the music format, which is (almost) the same as used in the Zelda games plus in pretty much
every Nintendo64 first-party title. In some IRC sessions, ZZT32 showed me some Zelda64 hacks
written directly in C using the GCC compilertargetting MIPS, and that enabled me to write many
of the hacks used in 'The Missing Stars'. Cendamos also suggested me to look at the mml (music
macro language) format in order to write a music importer, and after some weeks mml2m64 came
along. It was limited and buggy, but still very useful for this hack.
And so, on the beggining of 2009, a lot more confident in MIPS and C, I continued working on
'The Missing Stars' (the name actually came much later, suggested by Darkdata). Towards the end
of the hack, I got some very useful help from Celux (major work in the undergrounds area), RDX
(custom music), and Darkdata (title screen background) and the hack (v1.0) was finally released
on the beggining of May 2009.
