What tools does this skill help set up?

This skill provides workflows for splat64 (ROM splitting), uv (Python dependency management), Ninja (build system), and m2c (MIPS to C conversion).

How does it handle libultra identification?

It guides you through finding the SDK revision in the ROM header, identifying function boundaries, and matching assembly code against the ultralib source.

Does it support compiler-specific configurations?

Yes, it assists in identifying the correct compiler version via decomp.me and provides specialized guidance for IDO and other common N64 compilers.

Can this skill help me achieve a bit-perfect build?

Yes, it includes specific instructions for SHA1 checksum verification and using diffing tools to ensure your compiled code matches the original ROM exactly.

Game Development

Streamlines Nintendo 64 game reverse engineering by automating project initialization, build system configuration, and libultra identification.

This skill provides a comprehensive workflow for Nintendo 64 game decompilation projects, guiding developers through the intricate process of setting up bit-perfect reconstruction environments. It automates the initial project structure using uv and splat64, configures high-performance Ninja build systems, and provides structured patterns for identifying specific libultra SDK versions and symbols. By integrating tools like m2c and decomp.me, it assists in the transition from MIPS assembly to C code while maintaining strict checksum verification to ensure matching builds.
