Zelda 64: Recompiled for PC - Majora's Mask

Zelda 64: Recompiled is a project that uses N64: Recompiled to statically recompile Majora's Mask (and soon Ocarina of Time) into a native port with many new features and enhancements. This project uses RT64 as the rendering engine to provide some of these enhancements.

Play Majora's Mask natively on PC! Download here for Windows or Linux:

Note: Project does not include game assets. Original game is required to play.

Features:

Plug and Play

Simply provide your copy of the North American version of the game in the main menu and start playing! This project will automatically load assets from the provided copy, so there is no need to go through a separate extraction step or build the game yourself. Other versions of the game may be supported in the future.

Fully Intact N64 Effects

A lot of care was put into RT64 to make sure all graphical effects were rendered exactly as they did originally on the N64. No workarounds or "hacks" were made to replicate these effects, with the only modifications to them being made for enhancement purposes such as widescreen support. This includes framebuffer effects like the grayscale cutscenes and the Deku bubble projectile, depth effects like the lens of truth, decals such as shadows or impact textures, accurate lighting, shading effects like the fire arrows and bomb explosions, and various textures that are often rendered incorrectly.

Easy-to-Use Menus

Gameplay settings, graphics settings, input mappings, and audio settings can all be configured with the in-game config menu. The menus can all be used with mouse, controller, or keyboard for maximum convenience.

High Framerate Support

Play at any framerate you want thanks to functionality provided by RT64! Game objects and terrain, texture scrolling, screen effects, and most HUD elements are all rendered at high framerates. By default, this project is configured to run at your monitor's refresh rate. You can also play at the original framerate of the game if you prefer. Changing framerate has no effect on gameplay.

Note: External framerate limiters (such as the NVIDIA Control Panel) are known to potentially cause problems, so if you notice any stuttering then turn them off and use the manual framerate slider in the in-game graphics menu instead.

Widescreen and Ultrawide Support

Any aspect ratio is supported, with most effects modded to work correctly in widescreen. The HUD can also be positioned at 16:9 when using ultrawide aspect ratios if preferred.

Note: Some animation quirks can be seen at the edges of the screen in certain cutscenes when using very wide aspect ratios.

Gyro Aim

When playing with a supported controller, first-person items such as the bow can be aimed with your controller's gyro sensor. This includes (but is not limited to) controllers such as the Dualshock 4, Dualsense, Switch Pro, and most third party Switch controllers (such as the 8BitDo Pro 2 in Switch mode).

Note: Gamepad mappers such as BetterJoy or DS4Windows may intercept gyro data and prevent the game from receiving it. Most controllers are natively supported, so turning gamepad mappers off is recommended if you want to use gyro.

Autosaving

Never worry about losing progress if your power goes out thanks to autosaving! The autosave system is designed to respect Majora's Mask's original save system and maintain the intention of owl saves by triggering automatically and replacing the previous autosave or owl save. However, if you'd still rather play with the untouched save system, simply turn off autosaving in the ingame menu.

Low Input Lag

This project has been optimized to have as little input lag as possible, making the game feel more responsive than ever!

Instant Load Times

Saving and loading files, going from place to place, and pausing all happen in the blink of an eye thanks to the game running natively on modern hardware.

Linux and Steam Deck Support

A Linux binary is available for playing on most up-to-date distros, including on the Steam Deck.

To play on Steam Deck, extract the Linux build onto your deck. Then, in desktop mode, right click the Zelda64Recompiled executable file and select "Add to Steam" as shown. From there, you can return to Gaming mode and configure the controls as needed. See the Steam Deck gyro aim FAQ section for more detailed instructions.

System Requirements:

A GPU supporting Direct3D 12.0 (Shader Model 6) or Vulkan 1.2 is required to run this project (GeForce GT 630, Radeon HD 7750, or Intel HD 510 (Skylake) and newer).

A CPU supporting the AVX instruction set is also required (Intel Core 2000 series or AMD Bulldozer and newer).

Planned Features:

Dual analog control scheme (with analog camera)

Configurable deadzone and analog stick sensitivity

Ocarina of Time support

Mod support and Randomizer

Texture Packs

Model Replacements

Ray Tracing (via RT64)

Back at it again at the [DATA EXPUNGED]

Listening: Vienna Teng, who I encountered in a fancam for industrial society set to Landsailor someone posted on here. Here it is:

Landsailor is good, Hymn to Breaking Strain vibes but from a more civilian perspective, it also has some great names for shit, my favourite being "lawbreaker" for heat pumps. Absolutely incredible.

Reading: Halfway through Fugitive Telemetry, I forgot I had it after I finished Network Effect and anyway, Network Effect was good but kinda too long to spend with Murderbot, the short story format definitely fits it better. I do like how it opens with a Murder(bot) Mystery.

Watching: Watched Scott Pilgrim vs. The World for the first time. It's fun to watch something that is so very of its time. A lot like Clerks in that I watched it way later but I can imagine that had my friends and I seen it back in high school we'd all have been insufferably quoting it at each other the way we did Pirates of the Caribbean. Being vegan just makes you better than other people.

The material is. Fine, I knew it was a Manic Pixie Dreamgirl-focussed movie but I had somehow not realized it had the whole evil exes thing. The parts are greater than the whole.

Making: Marathon cooking session for my dad's birthday, preparing a large set of meals with the added bonus of not having electricity for two hours in the middle of the day. Turned out fine. Ovens are great for preparing large quantities of food quickly, you can do a lot of prep up front and the oven is pretty predictable.

Playing: Started but have not finished An Airport for Aliens Currently Run By Dogs, a comedy fetch quest game by Xalavier Nelson Jr. et al, which is about maintaining your long distance relationship with your fiance while being the last two humans in the universe by meeting up in various airports (for aliens (currently run by dogs)).

The basic game loop is that you have A Place you need to get to to meet your fiance or a specific dog, and you can do that by getting a ticket and finding your way to the appropriate terminal. But the airport is entirely written in a made up substitution cipher so until you learn that you're trying to get around from context clues in increasingly bizarre airports. You often have to get Things for different dogs to get them to help you and eventually get your flight, so you have to figure out the right chain of stores to go to to get your flight on time.

It's fun, it's not that long as far as I'm aware, and it is a nice little thing to have to do. I've been playing it in the mornings before work pretty often.

Tools and Equipment: Slowly setting up Linux on my new laptop, as previously mentioned AMD hasn't put out sensor fusion hub drivers for these Renoir CPU's so while I am pursuing that, I have to have some way to do tablet things in the meantime. Enter lisgd(1).

lisgd(1) is a gesture recognition daemon that works with touchscreens. You can configure (through a config.def.h or through command line flags) a set of gestures and commands for them to execute. I've now set up gestures to control volume and screen brightness as well as to enable and disable the keyboard and rotate the screen for tablet mode stuff. Between that you can replicate all the things the sensor fusion hub is meant to be doing.

There are other ways to do gesture recognition but this one has good tuning options and is pretty platform agnostic. You can do things like very carefully adjust how long a gesture has to be to be recognized or what deviation from the ideal angle will still be picked up.

I'll probably end up writing or finding a little panel utility that will make brightness and volume control simpler, maybe even include the rotation settings there too, but for now this works well enough. That panel will still get triggered by a gesture, so lisgd(1) is going to be load bearing.

[netscapenavigator-official]

Something I wanted to add because it seems to be something a lot of people aren't aware of:

No amount of extensions will anonymize you. While most people have different threat levels and don't need to be anonymous online, the fact remains, extensions tend to make your browser MORE fingerprintable. If your goal is to prevent each individual website from collecting as much data as possible, then extensions are a good solution. However, if you don't want entities and networks of entities to be able to track you from one website to another, including cross-website advertising trackers, you need to minimize your extensions as much as possible.

Also, it's typically recommended that you install and use only ONE adblocker. The way adblocker blockers work (like the ones YouTube are currently implementing) is that they inject "fake" invisible ads into your browser and then monitor them to see if they load. If your adblocker blocks this fake ad, then it triggers the anti-adblocker pop-up. If it does not, however, you get to continue browsing, ad-free. By using multiple adblockers, you not only increase the chance that one of them will take the bait, but you also risk them getting their rules intertwined and causing the bait to accidentally be taken when none of them, on their own, would've triggered it. uBlock Origin is typically regarded as the best of the best, so I recommend using it, and it alone.

Also, Privacy Badger is """allegedly""" quite outdated/useless and tends to make your browser more fingerprintable, simply because having an additional extension installed adds more to your fingerprint than Privacy Badger can take away.

If you're worried about your privacy, set Firefox's built-in Cookie Protection to "Strict." It warns you that some sites may break, but Mozilla recently implemented a new "Total Cookie Protection" feature that intelligently predicts and remembers which cookies will break a website and leaves them alone. I've used Firefox on "Custom" privacy settings (so I can make it even more strict than "Strict"), and I've never had a website fail to load because of cookie issues.

Also-also, HTTPS Everywhere is no longer needed. Firefox has that built-in, too. Go to Settings > Privacy & Security > HTTPS-Only Mode, and set it to "Enable HTTPS-Only Mode in all windows." That way you can remove HTTPS Everywhere and make your browser less fingerprintable.

And Finally, while it's not here, Cookie AutoDelete is another popular privacy extensions. However, like HTTPS Everywhere and Privacy Badger, by simply having it installed, you're doing more harm to your browser's fingerprint than you are helping. Firefox has a very similar ability to delete cookies on it's own. Go to Settings > Privacy & Security > Cookies and Site Data, and turn on "Delete cookies and site data when Firefox is closed." This does not replicate Cookie AutoDelete's behavior of deleting cookies when you close tabs. What it does is; it will delete cookies when you hit the "x" button to close Firefox (Windows and Linux) or right click and select "Quit" (macOS). Some people may find this a deal breaker, and that's fair, but for my use case, and plenty of others, deleting cookies only when the browser, itself, is closed works much better, especially if you close your browser every time you're done with it, like I do. It'll allow you to login into places without having to manually sign-in every single time, but if you ever close the browser, then it'll make you manually sign-in, which I feel is a good balance between convenience and security.

hello google chrome refugees

don't use any of these browsers, they're also chrome

Here are my favorite firefox plugins for security/anti-tracking/anti-ad that I recommend you get

please get off chrome google is currently being investigated for being an Illegal Monopoly so get outta there okay love you bye

To provide sub-millisecond latencies and better IOPS for frequently visited files in an HDD-based file system, provision an SSD cache.

Storage quotas can monitor and limit user- and group-level storage consumption on file systems to prevent unnecessary capacity use. Storage quotas are for file system administrators who service various users, teams, or projects.

Data compression lowers storage costs

File system backups and storage can be reduced by data compression. The data compression feature uses the LZ4 algorithm, which optimizes compression without affecting file system speed. Data compression allows FSx for Lustre to compress and uncompress newly written files before writing them to disk and reading them.

Get rid of old files

After exporting files to Amazon S3, release inactive data to maximize storage capacity. After a file is released, its data is removed from the file system and stored on S3, but its metadata remains. A released file is automatically and transparently loaded from your S3 bucket onto your file system when accessed.

Ensure security and compliance

Responding to this reply by @omuriceandriesling

"Might be a good opportunity to take one of my empty external drives and start saving things. I wonder if there Is there a faster way to do that than just right click->save as thousands of times"

Okay so for some reason this doesn't work on mangadex, but I'm hoping this'll give people some ideas of workarounds, and also work on other sites. Also this is just how I'd do it, tools and tricks that I have used, there are probably faster or better ways. Not an expert, just someone who has made comic files from online images occasionally :)

You will need a Windows desktop/laptop running one of the main three browsers, a willingness to fuck around with data, an app that can read CBZ, and storage space. This is most likely replicable in Mac/Linux but I don't have those so we're doing Windows. Specifically Windows 10 but again, you can figure it out for newer or older versions.

Download an addon called down them all! (available for Firefox, Edge, and Chrome) and 7zip or anything else that can make zips. There is also an addon called download all images which automatically makes zip folders which will save some effort but I found it downloaded wrong things and idk, I didn't like it, but it may be worth fiddling with if you feel like it.

Put the manga site into a scroll down format, so you can get as many pages on the page as possible. Right click and choose the downthemall! option, go to the media tab and select images. Strip out as much of the obvious site furniture as you can (stuff that says "header" and "navigation" etc.). You are hopefully looking at a long string of sequentially named images, but we'll come to that. Don't forget to make a folder and tell it to save there before clicking download.

Right, so you have your images. Type into your start bar "show file extensions", tick the option that comes up, then the little "show settings" next to it. In the panel that comes up untick hide extensions for known file types. If you've got it right you should now see all your files like image.jpg etc.

Go have a look at the images you've downloaded. If you've not already, then set your icon thumbnail size (using right click- view) to big enough to see that all you've got is pages, and also sort by name. Delete anything you don't need. If they love you it'll be numbered like 001, 002 etc. It can have words in there as long as they're all the same, but the leading zeros are important. We're essentially alphabetising this to make it back into a comic, and if you don't have zeros then you'll read page 1, followed by page 10... you see the problem. If you go above 100 pages you'll need 4 leading zeroes. If they don't love you then you can sit there renaming to make it make sense, there are tools out there to help but I've not got any particular recommendations.

Done with that? Cool, this is the magic bit. Zip up your folder, and then you see the .zip at the end? Triple click or choose rename from the right click options, and change that .zip to a .cbz Abracadabra and alakazam you now have a cbz file, which can be read by any good comic reader. I like Perfect Viewer for android, you can change which direction you read from if you need to. On desktop cbz can be read on Calibre which is another very useful program to have, but that's for another post.

Hey just so yall know mangadex is going down bc big companies are cracking down on piracy. Please archive your favorite manga

This is especially devastating for the english showa era community because we have no other option.

When it comes to online privacy and security, many users turn to virtual private networks (VPNs) to mask their IP addresses and encrypt their internet traffic. However, some users go a step further by faking their device's operating system through a VPN.

Faking the device OS via a VPN is a technique used to enhance anonymity and security while browsing the internet. By altering the information sent to websites about the device's operating system, users can prevent websites from tracking and profiling them based on their device type and OS.

One of the primary reasons why users fake their device OS is to avoid targeted advertisements and data collection practices. By masking the true operating system of their device, users can prevent websites and online services from tailoring ads and content based on their device type.

Additionally, faking the device OS can also help users bypass certain restrictions and censorship measures put in place by websites or governments. By making it appear as though they are using a different OS, users can access content and websites that may be restricted based on their actual device OS.

However, it is essential to note that faking the device OS via a VPN may violate the terms of service of some websites and online platforms. Users should be aware of the potential risks and implications of using such techniques and proceed with caution.

In conclusion, while faking the device OS via a VPN can enhance privacy and security online, users should carefully consider the implications and risks associated with using such techniques. It is always crucial to prioritize online safety and security while browsing the internet.
