Play N64 Roms with Hi-Res Graphics!

Submitted by JHdD on May 13, 2007 - 10:10am

from about.com:

One of the most common forms of N64 ROM modding is called Retexturing. When a ROM is retextured, the original graphics of the game are taken out, redone using high resolution textures or a different graphic style (such as Cell Shading), and then reinserted for playback on the PC.

Then, I tried running the .bat file that is in the freemind folder. It worked.

Now, I'm wondering how do I make .bat files that will run the programs for me? I tried:
