Mario Party N64 board editor

PartyPlanner64 allows players to create and import customized boards into a Mario Party N64 ROM for playback in emulators or on real hardware.

PartyPlanner64 is web-based so installation is not needed. A running copy is hosted from this repository. Chrome and Firefox are the supported browsers for this project.

It is highly recommended to read this before creating a board. This documentation highlights some common mistakes made while using PartyPlanner64.

The wiki has additional information about the editor, as well as technical documentation on the game itself.

A ROM is not required to create and edit boards with PartyPlanner64, however to play them you will need to open a Mario Party ROM file. Only the NTSC USA files are supported.

• Mario Party (U).z64 ROM file (MD5 8BC2712139FBF0C56C8EA835802C52DC).
• Mario Party 2 (U).z64 ROM file (MD5 04840612A35ECE222AFDB2DFBF926409).
• Mario Party 3 (U).z64 ROM file (MD5 76A8BBC81BC2060EC99C9645867237CC).

ROMs that have been edited can also be re-opened.

ROM files must be ran with Expansion Pak on hardware, emulators must be configured to use 8MB RAM or the game will crash.

These emulators are reported to work:

• Project64 2.3
• Mupen64plus
• Nemu64

This emulator has issues, even with the right setup (8MB RAM):

• Project64 1.6

See the emulator setup page for details on configuring each emulator.

To host a local copy of PartyPlanner64 clone the repository and do the following.

• Install Node.js and a package manager (npm).

• Retrieve the dependencies for the editor and development.

  • npm install --dev

• npm run start will build a development version and run a local web server.

• npm run build will build a production version and copy it into build/.

See the README.md under apps/cli.

After setting up a local dev environment, run the following to create the various Electron builds.

npm run electron
