New engine updates
Added 2023-05-05 12:05:25 +0000 UTCRemember my whole source code rewrite video? Well since then I've managed to improve the framerate by another 50%. This game now renders 6 times as fast as the original. So I've decided to import an HD whomps fortress with gamecube-level polygon counts into mario 64 just to see how it'd run.
THIS MEANS a Multiplayer mode can now be implemented into Return to Yoshi's Island and it would run perfectly fine! Plus this engine can now render the original game at mostly stable 60fps.
I've also recently finished the second overworld in Return to Yoshi's Island! Now only 5 courses and 3 sidelevels remain.

2023-05-06 20:15:39 +0000 UTCThis is the kind of coding I really want to learn! Because it means I can realize games like RWBY even on the N64, which would be awesome! (I'm hoping to some day make a N64 RWBY game in the Devil May Cry 1 style.)

2023-05-05 17:08:54 +0000 UTCthanks kaze, I'm hooked on mario 64 optimization videos. I would love to see og mario 64 splitscreen go from 2 -> 4 players at 30fps. didn't think it would ever be possible, and totally something I'd contribute code on if it ever piqued your interest.
