This is the Final Part#5 of 5 for my "Blender to N64" Tutorial Series.

In this video I show you step by step how to use the various command line tools to generate the needed files to incorporate into an N64 Sample ROM source code project. I also review the source code showing you which lines of code need to be updated in order for you to successfully compile the sample ROM file. I then demonstrate the compiled N64 ROM running on an N64 console.

SPECIAL NOTE:
When you compile the modified Sample ROM Project, and the compiler creates the .N64 ROM file... it will likely be called "sausage.n64". To change this to a name of your choosing simply edit the source file called "makefile" and look for the section of text "TARGETS = sausage.n64" simply update this to a name of your choosing. (i.e: TARGETS = Robomech.n64 ) The next time you compile, it will generate the ROM as "Robomech.n64". Just an FYI.

In this Tutorial Series I demonstrate how to use a special software tools package for Blender called "Sausage64". This was created by user "Buu342" from the N64Brew Discord server .

These tools allow us to export models and animation sequences created within Blender, into a file format (.S64) which we can use to create N64 display lists. We are able to activate the animation sequences within our own N64 Homebrew game or demo, using various commands provided as part of a custom Library.
