Altra64 for ED64 Plus or ED64v1

Build and releaseBuild docker dev build image

Note from 2023-08-10: Actually this fork includes all my changes + lot of fixes. So take this better Altra64: https://github.com/Suprapote/Altra64

Alternative Everdrive64 menu forked from ariahiro64 (Dez 2022) with this new features:

  • Game ID Support (N64Digital)
  • Auto Region detection (via Country Code). Altra64 previously had problems with a few PAL games (message: This game pak is only available for the PAL market or black screen)

Altra64 is an open source menu for Everdrive64 and ed64+ and is based on a fork of alt64 which was originally written by saturnu, and released on the Everdrive64 forum. ariahiro64 forked the Altra64 repo and add new features/bug fixes to it. Now I (ottelo) forked the this repo from ariahiro64 as well and added new things like the Game ID feature for N64Digital HDMI mod (source https://gitlab.com/pixelfx-public/n64-game-id).

N64Digital now detects the game:

Building

If you want to build the menu, you need an n64 toolchain. This is terrible to build, moparisthebest ended up creating a Dockerfile in the docker folder, instructions included in it.

Or if you him and I, you can use the one I built and pushed to ghcr.io, which can be found here

Furthermore adrianopteodoro Automated the build proccess. Builds can be found here

Build Altra64

To build the R.O.M.

from the projects root directory, with docker installed

docker run --rm -v "$(pwd):/build" ghcr.io/ariahiro64/altra64:master make

If it all worked, you will find OS64P.v64 in the bin directory.

Clean Altra64

Finally, we can clean the build objects from the project

from the projects root directory

docker run --rm -v "$(pwd):/build" ghcr.io/ariahiro64/altra64:master make clean

Big thanks to the countless people who make altra64 possible!!! Enjoy!
