The first pre-release of SpaceRanger, a native Windows port of Toy Story 2: Buzz Lightyear to the Rescue (N64) made by statically recompiling the game with N64: Recompiled and rendering it with RT64.

This release does not contain game assets. The original game is required to run it: Toy Story 2, N64, USA version (.z64, .n64 or .v64).

How to play

  1. Download SpaceRanger-v0.1.0-windows-x64.zip below and extract it.
  2. Open the SpaceRanger folder and run SpaceRanger.exe.
  3. On the title screen choose Load ROM and select your ROM (only needed once), then Start Game.

Requires Windows 10/11 64-bit and a GPU supporting Direct3D 12.0 (Shader Model 6) or Vulkan 1.2. If it crashes on startup, update your graphics drivers.

Important notices

  • Intel graphics: Older drivers may cause startup crashes or graphical glitches. If you run into trouble, get the latest compatible driver from Intel or your laptop maker; Windows Update may not offer the newest one.
  • Security warnings: This build is not digitally signed, so Windows or antivirus software may flag it as unfamiliar. Download it only from this release, compare the ZIP's SHA-256 with the value below, and review any warning before deciding whether to run it. A specific malware detection should be investigated rather than assumed to be a false positive.

What's in this build

  • Animated title screen with a purple and lime-green theme
  • High framerate support: frame interpolation up to your monitor's refresh rate
  • Widescreen and full draw distance
  • In-game menus for graphics, controls (controller and keyboard) and sound

Known issues

  • Buzz can show a thin dark band around his waist.
  • Some particles, projectiles and HUD slides are not interpolated yet.
  • Frame pacing has mostly been tested on one PC. If you see stutter, please open an issue with your GPU and refresh rate.
  • Sound effects can sometimes go away.
