# Sin & Punishment: a work-in-progress N64 static recompilation

> Sin & Punishment: Recompiled uses N64Recomp and RSPRecomp to build an experimental native C++ port from a user-supplied Japanese N64 ROM and the repository's symbol maps, with RT64 rendering. The author reports that it reaches the title screen; menu navigation, gameplay, audio validation, and a public pipeline for its patched working image remain unfinished.
