DaedalusX64

DaedalusX64 is a Nintendo 64 emulator for PSP, 3DS, Vita, Linux, macOS and Windows

Features:

  • Fast emulation
  • High compatibility
  • Support for PSP / 3DS / macOS / Linux / Windows
  • Active support and updates

Things that don't work right now:

  • Big Endian (So no builds for PowerPC at the moment sorry).

Usage

Installing Daedalus: Download the latest release for your platform from https://github.com/DaedalusX64/daedalus/releases or if you dare, use the latest builds in the GitHub Action section

Extra Steps: PSP: Copy the entire DaedalusX64 Folder to your Memory Stick and put into PSP/Game

macOS / Linux: Prerequisites: libpng / zlib / minizip / glew / SDL2 (You'll need to do this via a package manager. Execute the emulator ./daedalus 'Path to Rom' Note - Native Apple Silicon build via GitHub is not available yet however it compiles fine and works (Just a bit slow as expected)

Building

All Versions require these libraries: zlib, libpng, minizip

Building for PSP

Fetch the latest PSP Toolchain from https://github.com/pspdev/pspdev and install required libraries

Run    ./build_daedalus.sh PSP and CMake will do the required fun stuff :)

Building for Windows

NB: Windows build is broken at the moment

  1. Clone and open the repo in Visual studio 2019

  2. Build All

Building for Posix OS (Linux & macOS)

Posix OSes additionally require glew / SDL2

  1. Clone this repo

  2. ./build_daedalus.sh (This will auto detect the OS you are on)

CI

DaedalusX64 now has CI, you can get the latest nightlies from the Actions Tab. Warning: these builds are sporatic at times.
