You can now play Super Mario 64 nativity on the xbox!

*Note: To follow this tutorial, you will need a 64 bit windows machine.

Just follow these few easy steps:
(1) Install and update MSYS2, following all the directions listed on https://www.msys2.org/. (read step 2 first) (intsall in C:\\msys64)

(2) From the start menu, launch: "MSYS2 MinGW 64-bit" (do NOT launch "MSYS2 MSYS"):

(3) Set Msys2 email:

Code:

git config --global user.email you@example.com

(3) Set Msys2 username:

Code:

git config --global user.name Your Name

(4) Install dependencies:

Code:

pacman -S make cmake git bison flex python3 mingw-w64-x86_64-gcc mingw-w64-x86_64-llvm mingw-w64-x86_64-clang mingw-w64-x86_64-lld

(5) Change directory:
The MSYS2 terminal has a current working directory that initially is C:msys64home<username> (home directory).
At the prompt, you will see the current working directory in yellow.
~ is an alias for the home directory. You can change the current working directory to My Documents by entering:

Code:

cd /c/Users/<username>/Documents

(6) Clone sm64 pc port:

Code:

git clone https://github.com/sm64-port/sm64-port sm64x

(7) Enter new directory:

Code:

cd sm64x

(8 ) Acquire ROM:
copy your sm64 rom to C:\\Users\<username>\Documents\sm64x (MUST be vanilla IE: "Super Mario 64 (U) [!].z64")

(9) Prepare ROM:
Rename rom to

Code:

baserom.us.z64

<-- change "us" to your region if not using US.

(10) Clone xbox patch:

Code:

git clone https://github.com/mborgerson/xsm64.git

(11) Apply patch:

Code:

git apply xsm64/patch/0001-xbox.patch

(12) Copy xbox dependencies:

Code:

cp -ruT xsm64/src src

(13) Clone nxdk:

Code:

git clone --recurse-submodules https://github.com/XboxDev/nxdk.git

(14) Make xbox executable:

Code:

make TARGET_XBOX=1 bin/default.xbe -j4 <-- change 4 to number of proccessor cores

(16)
Upload

(17)
Enjoy!

also see this link: github.com/sm64-port/sm64-port/pull/18...

It fixes translations from xbox joystick variables to the n64.
The error is understandable, as there is conflicting data on the subject.

Mario Smoke Fix

Source:
www.romhacking.net...

Simply Open /actors/burn_smoke/model.inc.c
On line 47, change the reference G_IM_FMT_RGBA to G_IM_FMT_IA.

At build time, this will compile the texture into IA16 format (correct) instead of RGBA16 (incorrect).

See the link above for screenshots.
