Zelda 64: Recompiled is a project that uses [N64: Recompiled](https://github.com/Mr-Wiseguy/N64Recomp) to **statically recompile** Majora's Mask (and soon Ocarina of Time) into a native port with many new features and enhancements.

Never worry about losing progress if your power goes out thanks to autosaving! The autosave system is designed to respect Majora's Mask's original save system and maintain the intention of owl saves by triggering automatically and replacing the previous autosave or owl save. However, if you'd still rather play with the untouched save system, simply turn off autosaving in the ingame menu.

#### What is static recompilation? #### What is static recompilation?
Static recompilation is the process of automatically translating an appliation from one platform to another.

#### How is this related to the decompilation project? #### How is this related to the decompilation project?
Unlike N64 ports in the past, this project is not based on the source code provided by a decompilation of the game. This is because static recompilation bypasses the need for decompiled source code when making a port, allowing ports to be made **without source code**. However, the reverse engineering work done by the decompilation team was invaluable for providing some of the enhancements featured in this project. For this reason, the project uses headers and some functions from the decompilation project in order to make modifications to the game. Many thanks to the decompilation team for all of the hard work they've done. Unlike N64 ports in the past, this project is not based on the source code provided by a decompilation of the game.
