Notes

This program is still in development. If you have any issues with it, please send me the detail of the issue to me on Discord. If you don't have my Discord, you can contact me at this email address: wradion@gmail.com. Please send me the Romhack name (or patch download link) you trying to port so I can reproduce the error myself.

Romhack type

The program works best with Romhack entirely made with ROM Manager or SM64 Editor (make sure to check the corresponding box).

This program work even better if the Romhack doesn't use custom asm code or custom objects behaviors.

What does it do?

This program uses rom-manager-2-c (well, a new version recoded entirely in C# for this case).

It uses RM2C to export all the content of the .z64 Rom into C files.

It then modifies those files, and create Lua files to make the sm64ex-coop Lua mod.
