How To Setup a Super Mario 64 Mod

This is a Guide on how to setup most Super Mario 64 Mods on an Emulator on Windows.

Preparations

To get this to work you need the following things already:

• An Emulator setup to play the Game (Examples: Project64, Mupen64Plus, Parallel Launcher)
  • Project64: https://www.pj64-emu.com/
  • Mupen64Plus: https://mupen64plus.org/
  • Parallel Launcher: https://parallel-launcher.ca/
• Floating IPS to patch the ROM: https://www.smwcentral.net/?p=section&a=details&id=11474
• A Mario 64 ROM (US Version) --> I can't tell you where to get that
• The Patch file to create the Mod --> .bps File of the Mod you're trying to create

Patching the ROM

After having the Game with an Emulator setup and the Patch File and Floating IPS downloaded, follow these steps:

1. Unzip the .Zip Folder of Floating IPS:
   
   

2. Open the file "flips.exe" in the newly unzipped folder and click on "Apply Patch":
   
   

• First select the Patch (.bps) File
• Then select the Mario 64 (US Version) ROM
• And at last define a name of how the newly created (patched) ROM should be called

3. Now you can use the new ROM to play the Mod on the Emulator of your choice :D
