A VS Code extension allowing in-editor tools. Less setup, less terminal, and less manual typing. Allows everyone to access and improve upon useful tools that might not otherwise be included in a decomp repository.
Specifically made for N64 decomp, but other platforms such as GC could be supported as well.

- Modular design in Typescript. Anyone can add a module contributing to an efficient decomp workflow.
- Generates M2C code in a nearby panel while you decomp. This way, you always have access to the original M2C! It tracks your scope, no need for any terminal commands.
- Static DL generator
- Dynamic DL realizer. Places matched machine-code into a text box for easy manipulation prior to sending to gfxdis.
- Displays a list of funcs filtered by byte size. Only works for non-matching funcs. Ex. All funcs under 500 bytes. Helps to find all the small functions. In the future, this could contain different kinds of filters.
Compile gfxdis for wsl or linux. https://github.com/glankk/n64 Python
npm install -g yo generator-code
Open the project from VS Code and press F5 to compile and create a debugging session.
Open a workspace or folder. This is required.
Then in Settings add in the paths to gfxdis and mips2C:
File->Preferences->Settings
Search Decomp Tools
Open the Decomp Tools menu by navigating to the decomp icon on the activity bar. Click the Begin Decomp! button to initialize modules.
You may need to click in and out of a function scope to get the M2C to appear. It only runs on functions that contain assembly in your decomps non_matching folder.
Highlight some dynamic DLs then press Realize Macros. Modify the machine code generated in the textbox for it to be syntactically accurate. Next, press the gfxdis button to send the data to gfxdis. Its output will be pasted at your cursor position.
A static displaylist generator. Find a .data file with DLs in it. Provide an offset with valid DLs and Decomp Tools will get gfxdis to generate C code until it hits a no op. Also converts 0x addresses to D_ and adds includes. Its output will be pasted at your cursor position.
Input a size in bytes to list any funcs that size or smaller. Only works for non_matching files that are not in extra folders.
The extension has a config file that auto recognizes decomps. The extension will need to be recompiled and updated to support more decomps. It currently has only been tested on mk64 but it has a definition for kirby.
- Generate CTX on startup for the m2c module
- Have a regenerate CTX button
- Display decomp progress stats on the status bar.
- Vtx dissassembly
- Find small funcs does not support opening files in folders of folders:
ex. asm/non_matchings/audio/external/external.c.It must be:asm/non_matchings/external/external.c
PRs Welcome.
