Ok but really, do any of those add ANYTHING worth checking out? I could emulate all of these, but maybe these recomps added something cool you can't emulate, like mouse support for an FPS, or unlocked framerate in a game that gets all funky if you set it to more than 30.
>>12852947Nothing really. If anyone feels like modding, there it is, but otherwise no reason to use this yet.
>>12852956Well, call me when Megaman Legends and Brave Fencer Musashi get undubs. Or Black gets mouse support.
>>12852924why is oot almost perfect?
>>12852924That's nice. Wake me up when we get a recompile of something we actually need like Jazz Jackrabbit.
>>12852947Most games don't see huge benefits from it, no. If a game has a rich romhacking scene, then getting it running as a native PC game with vastly increased modding potential has huge value, even if some would keep doing it the old fashioned way.Mario 64 is the gold star example, it has a great decomped port and it's wonderful that it happened.But if a game has no such scene, and already emulates perfectly fine? Maybe a proper decomp port could be nice if it got even just a few people trying to make newer and more complex content for it that way, but that's a big if for a lot of work.
jak and daxter geogessur when
>>12852924There's an F-Zero one that works too. Adds a bunch of things but I only wanted it for the widescreen really, adds to the speed feeling when racinghttps://github.com/Zorkats/G-Diffuser>>12852947I liked the Perfect Dark one. The kb+m works really well and it's 60fps. Widescreen alone is worth it for some games. Like most N64 games were in 4:3 and it's nice to be able to see more of what's going on, feels more immersive and so on
>>12853371>F-Zero*F-Zero X
>>12852924I finished Perfect Dark recently and it's really well made, even with in-game menu. Not a fan of ship autism and imgui overlays
>>12852947Yes, retard
>>12853373>>12853371OH SHIT that's cool. Will check out. luv me f-zero x.
has anyone got the Tooie recomp yet? it's way earlier on and I think vibecoded. I can't even get it to boot lol
>>12852947unleashed (runs far better and is more stable than the emulator) and perfect dark (mouse and keyboard). everything else? fucking useless, outside of maybe the n64 and beyond ones are useful to run those games at full speed in one of those shitty linux handhelds
I just want Jagged Alliance 2 recomp...
>>12852947You're going to have to ask that on a per-game basis, many add shitloads more that you can't do with an emulator. Modern controller support, widescreen, and higher FPS being common enhancements most get that you can't just do on emulators in general for the most part.The Star Fox EX and Virtua Racing (The port of the arcade one, not the recomp based on the 32X version) can increase the framerate to 60FPS and render the polygons at a higher resolution among a shitload of other enhancements.
>>12854670>enhancementsWhat a fucking joke. You people are truly retarded
>>12854738The only retard here is the one specifically complaining that the person who asked about enhancements was told about enhancements.
>>12852947The framerate interpolation for low fps N64 games makes them feel dramatically better. I can take or leave widescreen, it kind of makes Star Fox 64 look weird due to the object culling.
>>12852947Yeah the Banjo-Kazooie one has dozens of mods that wouldn't really be possible. You can play the entire game as an FPS, warp, etcPerfect Dark also has mouse aim. A Pikmin one has mouse controls too.
>>12852947nope, all those are childrens game. here's a game for beer drinkershttps://youtu.be/HWys7Itl6pA
What about Halo 1 and Dante's Inferno? Anyone tried the recomps?
>>12855051Man makes me want a Metroid Prime recomp. That dude was doing one with URDE like ten years ago and gave up.
>>12852924Why no mention of Zelda64Recomp for Majora's Mask? And there's also a recomp of Duke Nukem: Zero Hour out.
>>12852924skate 3 recomp ran perfectly for me
>>12855519Majora's Mask was a millennial thing. Zoomers are only into OoT.
>>12855513It will probably be done soon, like the graphic code from it was used by the Twilight port, just because it was fully decompiled first
ayyyyyyyy hunters got a recomp.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FFUglxqa_eI
>>12852924What about the PS1 recomps?
>>12855657Generally a useless thing, but Gran Turismo 2 has even vr support and web versionhttps://github.com/dubrovskiy-yevhen-stakelogic/gt-2-pc
silent hill 1 has 60 fps and "modern camera" modes
>no recomp with mouse and keyboard supportwhen will the eye of autism fall on a game that actually needs a good recomp? what the fuck is wrong with these troons?
>>12856096thats not a 3d mascot platformer bro. it gives me the ick
>>12856116when is it my boys time to shine then?
>>12852924>HarbourMasters
>>12852947N64 games playing at a decent framerate and better control schemes is amazing. Goldeneye and Perfect Dark in VR with twin stick movement and point aiming with a motion controller is sick af. VR feels so fucking good for pre-ADS shooters (I hesitate to call GE and PD boomer shooters). Doom and Quake in VR is awesome too.Can’t wait for someone to give Shadows of the Empire the same treatment. Fantastic bones, clumsy execution even in the context of the time it was released.
>>12856912>VRsounds gay as fuck.
>>12852924>>Link's Awakening>NOT a recompI've been playing that on my Nova, (the updated v2.0.8 version) and it's really excellent. It feels incredibly faithful, whilst giving so much QoL and improving the fluidity of playing the game.Having 6 equipment buttons means I don't have to keep swapping things around, and I can have things like Pegasus Boots and Power Bracelet always equipped.I put Boots on L, Bracelet on R, Sword on Y (West), Shield on A, Feather on B, and X is a free slot for whatever the dungeon needs.I also love the attention to detail with the achievements, like acknowledging you sat in Richard's Villa for 3 minutes to hear Totaka's Song, or getting all 5 chests in the Tal Tal Heights chest puzzle room (leaving the room without collecting all five makes the remainder permanently inaccessible).

His voice doesn't even sound like he cares and does it for the money.I don't even care if recomps use AI, the problem is too many are being made and VGE encourages people to do that so they'll get a video.Just stop promoting unplayable trash.

>>12864057it's good, but too bad the flashlight doesn't work
>>12864057It was severely remiss of you not to include in your post that this has working multiplayer.https://youtu.be/9suSiBdxUyU?t=548
>>12864079it works for me>>12864131i know it has multiplayer, but im a singleplayer guy
>>12864180I was not making a comment on whether or not you knew the port had multiplayer. IT was severely remiss of you not to include in your post that this has working multiplayer, now more so, because you knew it has multiplayer.
>>12864186why would i post if something has multiplayer when i usually never play the multiplayer myself?
>>12864189Because Halo is in no small part known for its multiplayer. Informing people of the port is great, that is appreciated. But people are stupid and lazy, and many will have not clicked on that link because>Oh, another Halo PC project?There are more than a few of those. But an Xbox port with working and active multiplayer would entice people who are interested in that sort of thing. There's an argument to be made that if people are too stupid and lazy to have clicked, then they deserved not to know. That's in fact very true, but when informing others of something, we should hold ourselves to higher standards when context matters i.e. the context of Halo being in large part known for its multiplayer. There is no need to reply any further. Good day.
>>12864180>it works for mei am pressing X to doubt. why would it work for you and not for me?this thing doesn't exactly have a lot of video options so it's not like i forgot to turn the lighting engine on. did they fix it in the last 24 hours or something?
>>12865064haha oh wow.that's literally what happened. they fixed it in the last 24 hours.when i started the game up again, it asked me to update.

>>12854670>Modern controller supportThe only problem with emulators is mouse support.
G- diffuser used ai. It is still good and probably the only decent one using ai I found out. The guy admitted to using it but not for vibecoding.

>ps1->pc recomp>does not automatically recognize the PS1 classic controllerseems like a bit of an oversight
>>12852924Are there any ways to get straight executables for these or anything else like mario 64?
i hate luddites with all my heart but at the same time i also love art, so i can't really see a use case for recomps of anything below the 7th gen (or even 8th). i wish they spent all those token on making a flawless n64/ps2 emulator instead, or making a proper crt shader....
>>12873829they have better frame pacing/interpolation and some "qol" tweaks that you can turn on or off without applying patches
>>12873850>"qol" tweaksyou didn't beat the game
>>12873852neither did you shitter
>>12873880>it's afraid
>>12873829a flawless emulator wouldnt run on your machine. might be able to fix the current issues though.
>>12873829>ludditesStop repeating words you have no understanding of just because retards mishandling AI scream that when faced with any criticism that their shit sucks.
>>12852924This goes beyond recomps. Video games, provided you have the money for tokens, have become completely open source. There is no prompting anymore, you just tell Claude or Codex what you want, and iterate as needed. Video games have been solved (provided you have the money for tokens that can't be said enough). A new age has dawned.
>>12875649>A new age has dawned.Unfortunately 99% is going to be uninspired garbage solely to appease algorithms and make internet money. I await the legitimate passion driven large scale projects, if I can ever find them through all the garbage forced by people who don't give a shit.
>>12875664Anon. You can do it yourself. You can bring the inspired vision you have to life, right now. That's what the new age is. You don't have to wait on anybody for anything anymore. The only thing you have to wait on is the token refresh.
>>12875669I'm cookin' a few things up. Not sure how well they'll perform, but I'm more focused on making it good and fun right now.
>>12875679Good luck!
Ready for a new era of slop modding?
>>12875720ohhhhh buddy you better fucking believe i am.
>>12875720THE GENIE'S OUTTA THE BOTTLE!
>A new age has dawnedYou sound like a faggot.
>>12857778That's me
>>12875802>>12875835
>>12875669I've only just started woking with claude and ai in general, and it tore some sms roms apart without even fucking blinking. Realization quickly set in. Why the fuck am I modding (x) rom? I can remake this entire fucking game, using the exact code translated directly from the rom, and add whatever the fuck I want to it. Roms are nothing but resource packs now.
Romhacking keeps allowing these garbage hacks
>>12876370Modding has its place. It's the same reason people do covers of songs. It's a nice or fun thing to do for something you like.

>>12877927You can't tell me what it means without AI explaining it.
>>12870113I always forget how terrible this game looked.
>>12852924Reminder: AI still can't handle DOS games. Can't port Jazz Jackrabbit to Windows. Hell, I doubt it can even finish the port some guy has been working on for years now.https://github.com/AlisterT/openjazzClaude is too weak and gay to handle Jazz.
>>12878878Do you know that personally? This isn't a gotcha or setup to a gotcha. Did you use Claude or GPT 6 Astra, give it Jazz Jackrabbit, and say>Port this to WindowsI'm currently using it to to inject multiplayer functionality into a game that has no multiplayer functionality with nothing but the assets and a .exe, and it's doing it. I can't imagine porting a DOS game is actually too much for it.
>>12852924the animal crossing one is AI slop. I'm assuming a few of these other ones are too.
>>12852947So, aside from the performance benefits of running natively, this makes the games portable. So you could ostensibly run all your N64 scrimblos on your PSP, which is something it can't emulate reliably as of yet. Just an example.
>>12878881Nope cause funfact: A lot of the recomps/ports/etc are based on code not made by AI. RecompOne, Xenonrecomp, n64recomp, etc are the real reason for all the ports. The AI is just using those codebases in the (tedious) porting process.This is important cause, despite Dosbox being a thing (as all recompillers get their information from emulators), nobody has made a Dos recompiller. On a certain level, this is a Windows issues cause they got rid of 16-bit support (NTVDM aka NT Virtual DOS Machine) but the point is that AI can't do shit.Not until a human writes a DOS recompiller anyway. But hey, use some of your tokens to ask Claude if he could it. Ask him if he were able to port Jazz Jackrabbit to Windows.
>>12878896Intradesting. I don't use Claude I use the other C word, but ultimately I'm not interested in Jazz Jackrabbit.
>>12875720I check moddb regularly and I don't think we're there yet.
>>12878958The majority of these will be not be posted to moddb, they'll be private projects shared amongst discord servers of communities i.e. modding a Genshin Impact character into F-Zero or something. The good news is that nobody has to wait for anything and, with enough money, can make whatever they want.
>>12867235Redditors can seetheAI is a bless for vidya ports and translations>muh AI bad!!either do them yourself without AI or shut up
>Recomp/decomp of a fighting/racing game >No online multiplayer Yeah, fuck off
