Hack description

This is a hack of the Super Mario 64 Shindou Pak Taiou, or Rumble Edition. Using the Super Mario 64 decomp, many improvements have been made, such as the addition of English text, a reimplemented BLJ and "So long-a. Bowser!" sound clip, a fixed smoke texture, and tweaks to Mario's voice lines.

Still needs to be worked ondamian0012023-12-14Version 1.0

There are some things that I enjoy like the fixed smoke texture and the improved framerate. However, the introduction scene doesn't start off this romhack well with the spelling error during Peach's letter to Mario.

Also, Mario makes these strange, higher-pitched sounds when jumping or attacking. Honestly its a pretty annoying issue, and I don't think I can continue to play with this rom-hack with Mario sounding like he inhaled helium. This needs to be fixed.

The ultimate version of Super Mario 64JellyKid2022-09-06Version 1.0

I just picked up a N64 /w ED64 Plus on the cheap that was broken. Long story short, I fixed it. Went to go play SM64 and forgot how bad the frame rate is on it and remembered that Nintendo forgot to optimize it when compiling and figured there might be a fix for it. I stumbled across this "hack" and let me tell you, it's amazing. Frame rate is so much smoother and it has rumble! This is the version that Nintendo should have released. If you can play this on real hardware, do it. 120/120 stars.

Finally! But needs update to support available versions.legend802021-03-22Version 1.0

Finally, we can have rumble + English in SM64! Been waiting so long for this.

Unfortunately, the patch fails on the widely available RevA version and requires Rev3/C strangely, as that version is not really available.

Hopefully it'll be made compatible with the prevalent Rev A so everyone can enjoy this.

Needs proofreading.Anarkkie2021-03-22Version 1.0

Script needs proofreading. Otherwise so far so good. Works on real hardware.

First typo I have found is on the opening screen.

"Dear Mario: Please come to the castle. I've baked a cake for ou. Yours truly- Princess Toadstool Peach"

It should read, "I've baked a cake for you." —

This will be my go-to version if the typos are fixed.
