A library and toolkit for working with N64 rom files.

Installation

Requires Rust nightly. You can use rustup to install the toolchain:

rustup toolchain install nightly

Install n64rom:

cargo +nightly install n64rom

Tools

n64romtool is a provided utility for inspecting N64 rom files.

Currently it can:

• Show info about the rom's header and IPL3.
• Convert the rom to a different byte order.
• Verify the CRC values in the rom header.
• Correct the CRC values in the rom header.

To install n64romtool, run:

cargo +nightly install n64rom --features=n64romtool

Some usage examples:

# Display info about rom file "MyRom.z64"
n64romtool show MyRom.z64

# Convert rom file "MyRom.z64" to big-endian byte order (easiest to read)
# You can convert to: [big, little, mixed]
n64romtool convert big MyRom.z64 MyRomBig.z64

# Verify the CRC values in rom file "MyRom.z64"
n64romtool check MyRom.z64

# Correct the CRC values in rom file "MyRom.z64"
n64romtool correct MyRom.z64
