N64Swap
|
||
|
|
=======
|
||
|
|
Swaps .n64, .v64 and .z64 roms. Written in Python 3. You must install `numpy` via e.g. pip. Code is kinda messy.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Usage
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
n64swap.py [-h] input output
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Technical information
|
||
|
|
`.z64` is the correct format and should be used. This handy table shows the [difference](https://old.reddit.com/r/emulation/comments/7hrvzp/the_three_different_n64_rom_formats_explained_for/):
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
| ROM format | Type | First 4 bytes | Game Title in ROM |
|
||
|
|
|------------|---------------|---------------|--------------------|
|
||
|
|
| .z64 | Big Endian | 80 37 12 40 | `SUPER MARIO 64 ` |
|
||
|
|
| .v64 | Byteswapped | 37 80 40 12 | `USEP RAMIR O64 ` |
|
||
|
|
| .n64 | Little Endian | 40 12 37 80 | `EPUSAM R OIR 46` |
|
||
|

(Note that there are two spaces after both "64", they don't seem to show up here.)
