What was done
This project provides a static recompilation of The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom into a native Windows application. It is a fork of the valentderah/totk-pc-recomp project, adding a custom launcher, multiplayer functionality, and achievement tracking.
TotK Recomp is a static recompilation of The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom (Nintendo Switch, 2023) into a native Windows x86-64 application. The project is a fork of the work maintained by valentderah, which provides the core recompiler, runtime, Vulkan renderer, and installer. The fork by arnaldolima1 adds a custom launcher, Brazilian Portuguese interface support, PlayStation button prompts, and an achievement system with an editor. Additionally, it introduces multiplayer rooms that allow friends to share progress, chat, and complete group challenges. The maintainer reports that most of the code and documentation is written by AI coding agents, specifically Claude Opus 5.5, under their direction. The game is currently playable on Windows, though visual bugs and crashes are expected. The project requires the user to provide their own legally obtained game files from a console. https://raw.githubusercontent.com/arnaldolima1/totk-recomp/HEAD/README.md
Reproduce it
Download the latest launcher from the project releases, install it, and provide a legally obtained dump of the base game and the 1.2.1 or 1.4.3 update files to initiate the build process.
