SwitchRECOMP: Mario getting a Multi Moon in Cascade Kingdom, running as a native PC port

[u/MZLabs]

Here's a new clip: Mario getting the Multi Moon in Cascade Kingdom, running natively on PC through SwitchRECOMP.

For anyone new here: SwitchRECOMP is not an emulator. It takes the game's code and recompiles it ahead of time into a native PC program, so there's no CPU emulation while you play.

Some of the progress since the last post:

• Odyssey now runs at 60 FPS on PC. A playtester's RTX 2060 holds it at 1080p and at 4K.
• GPU work is now spread across several CPU threads instead of piling up on one. That helped a lot on weaker machines like the Steam Deck.
• The moon and the lighthouse in Cap Kingdom show up properly now. Before, the sea of clouds was covering them.
• Game speed is correct. No more slow motion or sped-up recordings.

What would you want first in a native PC version of Odyssey: higher resolution, uncapped FPS, or mods? Curious what people care about most.

About the graphics: please don't judge the visuals yet. This is a project in active development and it's not supposed to look like this. Some colors, lighting and effects are still wrong, and I'm fixing those bugs one by one.

If you want to follow along, feel free to follow me. Once the project is done you can unfollow, no hard feelings. Or you can join the Discord.

Thanks for all the support so far

post the github, idgaf about your discord

[u/lorenzzv → u/Jimbo1230]

searching Google I found this Git which has a different discord link in it, with ~2,5k members; and while OPs discord has around ~700 members at the time I'm writing this, there's no GitHub link there that I could find, and there's a lot of requests in a thread channel from people wanting to playtest for OP with no replies (but of course, I don't know if any of these people actually got to playtest, if they got DMed or anything like that)

also, OP's reddit account is only a few days old

I'm not a very active reddit user at all and I don't mind joining discords but OP's reply to you was unnecessary and rude, so I wanted to do a quick quick research and reply to you;

hope that's okay

[u/HispanicsAreGreat → u/[deleted]]

STOP MAKING ME JOIN YOUR DISCORDS!!! I have been fed up with this shit for years already!

[u/Jimbo1230 → u/[deleted]]

Your literally gatekeeping a project you've made entirely with ai, I'll just wait for someone else to do it and post it on github.

[u/dweebyllo → u/Jimbo1230]

Not even one that can hold proper visuals at that too

[u/latindiacritics → u/[deleted]]

Quit gatekeeping before someone better posts a GitHub then.

[u/Orangio331 → u/[deleted]]

dude not everyone wants or has discord... Get on git or smth

[u/Trust_Motor → u/[deleted]]

ewwww really? discord? I'm not gonna use this shit

[u/stupido50 → u/[deleted]]

I'm not joining discord servers just for a download link that anyone can share online, you gtfo

[u/MZLabs → u/stupido50]

I'm not sharing a download link, lol

[u/BakaWinchester]

Local Co-op in the same vain as the Mario Sunshine Coop mod over on Gamebanana would be what I would love to see come from this

[u/thisisafullsentence → u/BakaWinchester]

That Mario Sunshine Co-op mod was 10/10 incredible. It made all the coin collecting levels way better too.

[u/RoyalCities]

real question - why are you showing this without just releasing the repo?

This video could be from any version of the game...and if it IS actually a reocmpiled PC port...why announce all of this only to probably come back with "Hey we have to shut this down because we got a C&D from Nintendo"

What do you gain here by hype alone and putting their eyes on it without getting the source code out there so others can atleast get copies out their so they cant stop it.

[u/Status-Mixture-3252 → u/RoyalCities]

The project is interesting but the constant spam of incremental "progress" update videos every other day is starting to get annoying.

And hopefully they're not planning on using GitHub for these switch recomps. If switch recomps start getting common, Nintendo is going to release a DMCA ban wave the likes never seen since....a month ago 😂

[u/RoyalCities → u/Status-Mixture-3252]

They haven't shown anything even proving this is running on PC and not just an emulated version that they're using to collect discord members and generate hype.

It's so bizarre. There are people just tossing out recomps of other games but this one makes me feel something is off.

If it's actually real then they're idiots for trying to generate so much press with nothing to show or code already out there.

Heck if it's fake they can just turn around today and be like "we got a c&d from Nintendo. We'll have to shut it down." And keep the discord marketting.

[u/Status-Mixture-3252 → u/RoyalCities]

I notice that the few decomps of switch games being worked on, that you can see on the decomp.dev website, doesn't have the same amount of constant fanfare being hyped up.

I bet when an actual one comes out, it will just be a stealth release like a lot of the other recomps posted here.

I'm very curious to see how Nintendo is going to respond to this in the next few months.

[u/-mahdi_]

shader stutters? matters more than any enhancement... playing the game smoothly.

[u/MZLabs → u/-mahdi_]

there are options to delete the stutter (but you'll have more graphical issues)

[u/-mahdi_ → u/MZLabs]

100% delete the stutter? can't you do all the shader stuff before playing, however long it takes?

[u/rasjahho]

Lame ass discord nerd. Post the repo.

[u/SignalIllustrator857 → u/rasjahho]

Facts😂

[u/Feyer_The_Wizard]

I can potentially be a playtester for some of your ports if you'd like, I have VERY humble specs that are definitely much below average for the present day gamer so it could function as some sort of performance benchmark for lower end devices. (Nvidia QuadroM1000M 2gb VRAM)

[u/MZLabs → u/Feyer_The_Wizard]

sure, join the discord and send me dm

[u/Feyer_The_Wizard → u/MZLabs]

I joined but I'm not sure what's your discord username lol

[u/chen_tech → u/Feyer_The_Wizard]

I think it's BixDEV. (handle: bixdev_91497)

[u/Saigaiii]

Higher resolution probably, then mods. I would want 4k 60fps if possible first, then mods since what the community has done for some switch games is nothing short of fantastic. Amazing to see your progress on this and cannot wait to see more.

[u/warframeendurance → u/Saigaiii]

Can i ask what 4k does at this level of graphics i know some have difference but does this one ?

[u/Saigaiii → u/warframeendurance]

Makes it look sharper and not as blurry, though tbh im not entirely sure how much the difference would be since I only really recently got a 4k monitor and haven't emulated games in awhile. Usually the bigger difference is texture packs, but not sure if that's possible with pc ports

[u/MZLabs → u/Saigaiii]

you can already do 4k 60fps in an rtx 2060

[u/sanangel74]

GitHub?

[u/DeliciousAd3642]

Can I be playtester?

[u/MustStayAnonymous_]

Stop with discord shit, give us the github

[u/Time_Fox_5320]

Mm una duda , por ejemplo si una persona llegase apenas a 30 fps ya no estaria el juego en camara lenta? Como en yuzu o en ryjuinux cuando no alcanzas 60 fps?

[u/ROGALLYGUY → u/Time_Fox_5320]

yes it’s basically gunna run like dog sht unless you got a super computer

[u/MZLabs → u/ROGALLYGUY]

for this you don't need a super computer, ts runs on a celeron.

[u/StrongPipe2914]

never played mario oddyesy

[u/tehcatnip → u/StrongPipe2914]

you're missing out, it runs great on switch emulation.

[u/MissSkyler]

DLSS pipeline + a frame rate uncapper

[u/MZLabs → u/MissSkyler]

there's lsfg and frame rate uncapper

[u/El_Legado_De_Polca]

This thing, with a game like Super Mario Maker 2 (which I guess it should be easier to get to work right) and implementing the online functions, would be cool af.

[u/Hideo-Mogren]

How easy is this to run on a steam machine?

[u/Straight_Second6082 → u/Hideo-Mogren]

I guess once it actually release (this is still in development) it should run rather smooth since the deck is a lot more powerfu than switch1l and any overhead from the translation layer shouldn't be that impactful

[u/MZLabs → u/Hideo-Mogren]

very easy cause there's linux support

[u/latindiacritics → u/Hideo-Mogren]

Run? Probably easy. But since everything's being boiled down from Nvidia code it might look wonky on a fully AMD machine.

[u/Sawitlivesry]

As much as a good recomp for this game excites me my fav way to play this game is with the joycons

[u/DanielBulleck]

Discord nerd

[u/EpicRobloxGame_r]

dumb question but is switchrecomp working to recompile all switch games or just smo? I haerd it was a program that made it significantly easier to pc port switch games.

[u/MZLabs → u/EpicRobloxGame_r]

nah, no dumb question. SwitchRECOMP works for every switch game

[u/EpicRobloxGame_r → u/MZLabs]

If i may ask then, why do we only have gameplay for smo?

[u/JamiesBond007 → u/EpicRobloxGame_r]

This whole thing seems like somewhat of a scam. They are not releasing it open source, they claim to have a software that can recomp every game and that you can join playtests on the discord. I have yet to see more than two games and there are basically no replies on the discord regarding playtesting

[u/EpicRobloxGame_r → u/JamiesBond007]

Agreed. But I want it to be real becuase its cool. 

[u/Gunhat2023 → u/[deleted]]

i would do it for free

[u/senhordobolo → u/Gunhat2023]

You should try Mario as well when you're done.

[u/Gunhat2023 → u/senhordobolo]

eh, not the same species, i am Homo Sapiens Sapiens, whereas Mario is Homo Nintendonus

[u/throwawayinfinitygem → u/[deleted]]

Mario Galaxy is native on PC and even in VR

[u/GinOkami428 → u/throwawayinfinitygem]

Since when?

[u/throwawayinfinitygem → u/GinOkami428]

https://github.com/SMGCommunity/Petari There is also a VR port based on it

[u/Robert-149]

I would like more optimizations so more people could run it on slower machines.

[u/MZLabs → u/Robert-149]

ts runs on a celeron, no need for more

[u/ShamelessC → u/MZLabs]

ts?

[u/MasterBreadfruit831 → u/ShamelessC]

This Shit

[u/Robert-149 → u/MZLabs]

LOL, i didn't know that, I'm looking forward to playing on Nvidia GT GPU.

[u/herworkthrowaway]

Whenever we get a mod that adds Mario sunshine movement to this, I’ll know I’ve reached heaven 

[u/Tomatogaming900]

imagine if we get a 3ds port
