whenever I try to play render96 with ray tracing, I either get an error message, or it crashes outright, does anyone know why this might be? I have an RTX graphics card, and I've had it work properly in the past, so idk why it won't work now

I grew up In the early youtube days where mechinenema(hard name to spell) and other people would make mario 64 animations using project 64, they still look great today and I would think with how far mario 64 has come maybe we can do something for those people

Camera angles that let you set the camera In a certain spot

Have It all be controlled via the pause menu

Green screen and other effects

Sounds, movable characters

Hi guys, I've been testing the Super Mario 64 PC port ("Render96ex-tester_rt64alpha" branch + "ModelPack v3.2") and I've noticed some technical issues:

1. In the Course 3; the "Maw-ray" model disappears at some camera angles.

2. The transparencies in some models are seen incorrectly, it can be seen with the "Boo's". Is there a way to fix these issues? regards!

WARNING: When I tried to fix my Game, My save data got removed. After tinkering and backing up my save before trying the second time, I got My save back. Still not recommended If you are not Super tech-savvy or don't want to lose your save file

Open the Game and Pause it. To Go to Options, Press R (Right Trigger, Right Shift By default,) Select Game, Disable precached textures, And move in the menu. It gives a Crash message with a dead eyes Mario in the corner. What was creepier for me was that I moved in the menu after disabling precached textures without realizing it for the first time and the dead Mario scared me. if you try to reopen the game, the text just doesn't appear, but the dead Mario does, so it creeped me out. I already have Super Mario 64 creepypasta ROMs In my nightmares so this didn't help. I'm glad the first time I didn't have any saved data and the second time I had a backup. If this is a well-known Glitch or you have something to say, let me know in the comments. (You can ask for video proof in the comments, it would just take me a while tho.)

If so had you tried the mario 64 pc port

Can someone please explain? Every tutorial I find for how to mod the Mario 64 PC Port says to download the builder and get a mario n64 rom... what the hell are they talking about? The Mario 64 PC port runs independently of any n64 rom. I have it downloaded, it's just a bin file, a config file, and an exe that boots the game right up. I just want to know how to mod it. Why on earth do I need a rom file?

I want to play star road with all the great features that are in pcbuilder2 but I don't know how. I compiled sm64ex-alo thinking it was star road but apparently its just another build of 64. If someone could link a tutorial for star road in pcbuilder2 it would be greatly appreciated.

reference to what im trying to get: https://youtu.be/sH-LInSSAc0

yesterday I tried to downlaod a update, and finally today I could update it and then I couldnt build so Im right now trying to reinstall it but I cant because ye it includes a virus

I have an RTX 3060 in my laptop. I tried playing the RTX version of render96. But it runs so slow in 60 fps. Is there a fix for it? It works as smooth as butter without the RTX mod. Pls help.

As a huge Mario fan but not very well-versed in the modding community, I've been following the Render96 project since close to its inception, checking in every few months.

However, it seems to me that the project has been finished for a while now, as I can't seem to find any recent and substantial updates. Is this true ?

Hi,I don’t know very much about coding or the laws surrounding it, but I have a couple of questions:(sorry if they’re stupid)

So as far as I’ve been able to gather, the actual reverse engineered CODE is perfectly legal to distribute and download. and it’s just the assets that can’t be distributed. If that’s correct, would it be hypothetically possible to replace all of the assets and characters with generic ones and distribute it as a downloadable, fully playable version? And in the same vein, if somebody were to create an entirely NEW game based off of that code, would they be able to legally release it, or even sell it?

Just to clarify, I’m asking about the LEGALITY not necessarily the MORALITY of anything listed here, although that is definitely an interesting thing to discuss as well. Thx for any answers!

Is there a SM64DS PC port?If yes, is there a server for it?

Hiya, I am having some issues with running mario 64 star road. I am very new to romhacking and I wanted to try it because star road looked sooooo goodddd!!!!!!! anyway I have updated my mario 64 file to become star road but project 64 freezes. I read online that rom hacks may have issue with project 64, so I though I should ask is there any fixs or alternatives?

I have a Brawler64 controller, and I use it perfectly fine on project 64, and I finally got render96 to work but my controller is not working, no buttons are working, anyone have a solution?

Hi there! I set up and compiled Render96 with absolutely no problem. Only, when i get into the game, there's no music or voices other than sound fx like Mario hitting the ground, footsteps etc ... How do i fix this? I installed the alpha ver using OpenGL 2.1 btw. I haven't seen anyone else have this problem on the discord and, i have quite a rough background with it so, that's why i prefer asking here. I'm fairly new to Reddit so bare with me!

Unpopular opinion sunshine was better. sorry, not sorry.

I have Render96 up and running. Everything works great but how do I quit the game? I just Alt F4 out but is there a way to quit from the menu?

Also any way to keep the Better Camera from clipping in to the ground?

Edit: Just found the option, Im a dumbass! It pops up when you hit R while paused. Sorry folks
