- Reported result
- Works. This is the directory's source-based outcome classification.
- Independent confirmation
- Not reported.
- Human work and limitations
- The project uses the N64Recomp toolchain to convert N64 assembly into native C code. The repository does not contain game assets; users must provide their own ROM. The documentation notes that while the game is playable, some features like widescreen pause menus have minor visual artifacts.

What was done
Conker's Bad Fur Day: Recompiled is a native PC port of the N64 game, created by statically recompiling the game code using N64Recomp and the existing Conker decompilation project. It supports modern features like widescreen, high frame rates, and custom controller support.
Conker's Bad Fur Day: Recompiled is a native PC port of the original N64 title. The project utilizes static recompilation via N64Recomp, building upon the Conker decompilation repository. The port runs on the N64ModernRuntime and uses RT64 for rendering, enabling features such as widescreen support, higher resolutions, anti-aliasing, and high frame-rate presentation. The project supports Windows, Linux, and macOS (Apple Silicon). The build process requires a legally obtained US ROM, which is used to extract game data. While the game is considered playable and has been completed, known limitations include minor graphical issues with the pause menu background in widescreen mode. Development commits indicate contributions from Claude Opus 5.5, particularly regarding feature updates, bug fixes for sprite rendering, and achievement system implementation. The project remains a work in progress, with the underlying decompilation effort continuing to evolve.
Reproduce it
Clone the repository with submodules, ensure necessary build tools (Visual Studio for Windows, CMake/Clang for Linux/macOS) are installed, and run the build script (build.cmd or build.sh) providing the path to a valid US Conker's Bad Fur Day ROM.
