RaceWave46 is a fan-made Windows port of Wave Race 64, made with N64: Recompiled and drawn with RT64. It keeps the original championship, time trials, stunt mode, two-player races and Dolphin Park.

It adds resolution multipliers, widescreen and ultrawide, frame-rate options with interpolation, anti-aliasing, a wider field of view, longer draw distances, and optional rasterized or ray-traced water reflections and shadows. Local multiplayer is expanded beyond the original two players. The author says AI tools were used heavily in making it.

The download contains no game data. It needs a ROM of Wave Race 64 (USA) (Rev 1), dumped from your own copy.

## How to set it up

1. Extract the entire archive into a folder you can write to.
2. Open `WaveRace64Recompiled.exe`. It starts in fullscreen (the executable keeps this name even though the project is called RaceWave46).
3. Choose Select USA ROM and import your Wave Race 64 USA Rev 1 ROM.
4. Choose Start Game. Open Settings to adjust presentation and enhancements.
5. When updating, keep the `.runtime` folder, which holds your settings and saves.
