Quest 64: Recompiled — a static recompilation port

Quest 64: Recompiled turns the North American N64 release of Quest 64 into a native port through N64Recomp static translation. RT64 renders the game, and the program loads assets from the player's ROM. The port adds configurable graphics, controls and mod support.
