Useful Questions

A: What exactly is added or changed from vanilla Smash 64?

What fighters come prepackaged in the mod?

The roster for 0.9.7 has 27 full characters total. Veterans include Mario, Donkey Kong, Link, Samus, Yoshi, Kirby, Fox, Pikachu, Luigi, and Captain Falcon. Special unlockables like Jigglypuff, Ness, and others, along side completely custom mod characters (Young Link, Ganondorf and more). Ganondorf marks a special addition as an unprecedented new, from-scratch fighter not based on a N64-era build and with his own all-new theme and remixed style to bring a dark flair to the fight.

How do Final Smashes and super moves work in gameplay?

Some fighters have access to Super Smash Ball items, giving them ability to unleash a 'Final Smash' special move or have alternative 'Super Special Move' mechanics: Mario, for instance, has the 'Giga Mario' super giant state for some maps; these can tilt the battle immensely.

I am having issues configuring a controller setup in my emulator.

Each emulator/hardware method for N64 has their own controller mapping options. Emulators like Project64 typically support gamepad plug-and-play with default layout (directional + analog as movement, buttons bound accordingly; you can reconfigure as needed in Options). Always start with a clean default mapping, then personalize via the Input/Pad settings in any applicable game program for a seamless 'PlugN Play' feel with a supported original (or similar) control scheme using the appropriate game port, whether you're playing using a keyboard or a PC gamepad.

Are any glitches or balance tweaks from vanilla Smash 64 fixed, or even introduced?

As a fan-mod, Smash Remix attempts to fix many of the original's bugs and balance issues while also preserving its classic gameplay feel: tweaks such as certain unintended movement exploits, wall glitches, recovery inconsistencies. Not a complete rewrite by any means; its goal is enhancement, polishing the foundation while creatively expanding roster and content in the context of the N64's limitations and hardware boundaries.
