# OB64 Decomp: matching Ogre Battle 64 from MIPS assembly to C

> Reconstructs the US Rev 0 release of Ogre Battle 64 from source-owned MIPS assembly, replacing accepted functions with C that matches linked bytes and the full ROM. Its workflow records compiler and relocation constraints, tests each replacement, and keeps the original ROM and toolchains outside the repository.

## Requirements & limits

- **Prerequisites:** A legally obtained Ogre Battle 64 US Rev 0 ROM is required; US Rev 1 is outside the project's scope.
- **Prerequisites:** The documented matching setup uses Windows, Node.js, a pinned KMC GCC 2.7.2 toolchain, Splat, and GNU Binutils.
- **Scope:** Semantic identification remains separate from byte-matching progress.
- **License:** MIT License.
