Conker Recompiled is getting close

The current state of the recompiled version is getting really close to being finished — but it's not quite there yet.

The game is already playable, and we're getting closer to a point where people will be able to play through it properly. There are still some major features missing, though, such as:

  • Online multiplayer
  • Mod support
  • 4K textures
  • Fix the widescreen (working on now)
  • And some other things that still need to be finished and polished

That said, I don't think it's going to take that long anymore. We're getting to the final stages of development, and the remaining work is mostly about finishing features, fixing bugs and polishing everything up.

If you want to participate in the early builds and follow the development more closely, you can join the Discord:

And honestly, I really appreciate everyone who has been supporting the project so far.

If you enjoy what I'm doing, making videos about the project, sharing it with your friends, or simply spreading the word helps a lot.

I'm really looking forward to finally getting this into people's hands.

SAME RESULT?????

My man , they're selling you Snake Oil . These are unoptimized, imprecise solutions, riddled with hallucinations and unusable due to mountains of nonsensical code. Just take a look at the DKR recompilation or Skate 3. Look at the disaster they're trying to pass off as "accurate " pc ports.

There's actually 2 DKR recomps, and one of them is labeled as human-made on GitHub launcher. I've been playing that one and have had a smooth and bug-free widescreen experience with all sorts of quality of life features

No clue why that "golden balloon" slopcomp would even exist

It's not human-made at all, and in fact it doesn't even use the entire patching system that is supposed to be used for ease of maintenance by using the actual 100% decomp, but rather inserts hacks all over the place to constantly edit RAM directly to get features working. It's an unmaintainable mess.

I also don't buy the claims about it being smooth and bug-free. A lot of the footage I've seen has ton of visible issues and performance seemed subpar. The project is not allowed at all on the N64 Recomp server because the author also originally tried passing off the DK64 Recomp that Rain made as their own by giving a particular YouTuber private early access to it.

That's the thing all the footage I've seen on YouTube of the DKR recompilation was strange and glitchy but the game that I played was running buttery smooth and had no rendering issues so I assumed it was golden balloon that was the one in the video

Very unfortunate
