PC Classic Mini: N64 Edition! [Big Update!🔥]
If you haven't yet, please consider buying me a coffee here ☕ 🤗 Your support allows me to dedicate more time to this work ❤
🔰What's New
Removed the Myrient integration and all heavy backend.
Auto detection of games, simply put your game files and Covers in the correct folders (this works for regular games, hacks, translations and homebrew).
Cleaned code and better folder structure.
Music widget during Attract mode (to customize BGM, go to "resources\sounds\bgm").
Improved GUI for navigation and better UX.
Option to change the core, modify "coreFilename" in settings.json (for advanced users).
For old users, quick update method, tutorial here 😎.
🔰Frontend Features
Classic Mini Style: A clean UI designed for the "Mini" N64 console feel.
Quick Navigation: Use the alphabetical menu/shoulder buttons to quick browse games.
Video Options: Choose different aspect ratios/add or remove scanlines.
Pre-configured Retroarch for the best balance of speed and accuracy, including Expansion Pak support for demanding titles.
Customizable BGM: Set background music and adjust volume levels within the menu.
Save States Manager: Dedicated save state system featuring screenshots date and time.
Rewind and FFW option available.
Multi-language: Support for several languages.
Screensaver Mode: Dims the screen and plays some classic N64 themes automatically.
Retroachievements: Support with an Auto Login system to track your progress.
🔰Quick Setup - get it working in no time!
Add ROMs: Put your games into "resources\games", try to use .zip format.
Add Covers: Put your covers into "resources\covers", try to use png or jpg.
Cover names must match the roms'*.If you have the old version with the downloaded romset, go here for instructions 👀🚀
🔰General Use Tips
Saving: In-game, press L3 + BACK/Select to save. The "4 slots" system can auto-increment, allowing you to pick your state directly from the frontend later.
If enabled, you can rewind and FFW using the combo L3 + LT / RT
If you're using 1440p or something different than 1080p/2160p you should disable scanlines in the menu and/or use Retroarch's shaders directly.
Controllers: This works best with Xinput gamepads (Xbox, 8bitDo, etc.).
If using PS4/PS5 Gamepads you should be using DS4Windows or something similar.
During the week I'll release, exclusive for supporters, covers packs and a tool for renaming the covers to match your roms, please stay tuned! 🤗
If you like this project, please consider supporting me ☕ with a coffee or a video review so I can keep improving this and other apps!
This is only a frontend it DOES NOT include any rom files.

Is there any way to get the N64 8Bitdo to work on this? It doesn't have xinput I found out. My controller doesn't work once I get into a game.
You can try updating the controllers profiles inside Retroarch: open retroarch.exe, go to online updater, then update controller profiles. If there's not a profile for your controller yet and if it's Dinput only, you can try customizing the buttons inside retroarch, for that there many guides on Youtube, but just go to Settings/input/Retropad binds/Port 1 controls. One last resort is to use any Dinput to xInput Wrapper app.
Uma bela obra de arte......
