What's so special about the ROM process that it can't be ported or rewritten in a more portable way?

Because the 16 bit executables are closed source. :/ The special linker MILD.exe that organizes all of the RSP(Reality Signal Processor) microcodes and game data is the piece that needs to be reverse-engineered which is possible but currently beyond me. :)

I don't think it's beyond you, I just think you lack confidence. You can do it! I've been in your shoes before and it worked out.

Aww thanks much! :D Yeah I just lack confidence I guess since reversing binaries has always seemed a bit intense. I need to finally buy a really good code reversal tool and then start my quest to reproduce! :) It would be great if me or someone else was successful since then the N64 could be more easily developed for on any OS!!
