Super Mario Star Road

Super Mario Star Road, a fan made project that looks pretty cool...

Wow, it's like watching the sequel to SM64.

Brilliant ! Should be using a custom Hi-Res texture pack though (there exist so many for the original, so why not fir this one ?)

Holy shit! That's amazing! If only that could be picked up and put on Wii ware!(for the masses sake of course

I played it earlier briefly. First impressions are that the default camera and the GS code camera are both bad.

Finally got round to trying it. Indeed, the camera is really bad, but it's a pretty impressive hack otherwise. Just not very playable.

I don't blame the guys though, it would seem that the camera in the original SM64 is what got the most work from its creators. Even professional games being sold today can have a bad camera system sometimes, so expecting I wouldn't expect it to be perfect from an amateur take on someone else's work, especially since they obviously didn't have any of the source code and had to figure things out themselves.

Yea, the camera sucks. Miyamoto recently mentioned 64's camera while discussing Super Mario 3D Land, saying it was a vital factor in making 64 work.
