Super Mario 64 Nspire Port

This is a port of SM64 to the TI-Nspire CX lineup.

It is fully playable, albeit painfully slow, especially on a CX I. Play at your own risk of dying of old age.

Installation Instructions

Performance

Performance will likely never be that great, but here are a few ways to maximize playability:

• Make sure the config option enable_120p_mode is set to true, which is the default. However, this will quarter resolution and make most text unreadable.
• Set the config option draw_sky to false to avoid drawing the skybox (you can pretend it's always nighttime)
• Set enable_fog to false to disable fog (this is the default, it's never actually been tested when it's on, anyway)
• Find the right frameskip value for you. The default value is 4, but you can increase it at the cost of precise maneuvering.

With base configuration, you should only expect around 4 FPS on average on a CX II.

Controls

Controls cannot be edited via the config file, if you need to change the controls yourself you'll have to adjust the according file

The default controls are shown on launch, they are:

Start: enter

A Button: menu

B Button: del

Z Trigger: doc

Analog Controls: Touchpad

C Buttons (up, down left, right): 8, 2, 4, 6, accordingly

Escape exits the game, and pressing Control brings up a profiling screen, which shows your current FPS.
