Luigi’s Mansion recompiled to run natively on PC and Linux

Luigi’s Mansion Recompiled turns the GameCube game into a native PC game, with widescreen, high frame rates and the European Hidden Mansion.


The GameCube game becomes a PC game

Luigi’s Mansion Recompiled, by rob646464, came out as version 1.0 on 16 October 2026. Version 1.1 arrived on 21 October, followed by four fixes up to 1.1.4 on the 22nd. On first launch, the program asks for your own disc image (ISO, RVZ or another Dolphin format), US (GLME01) or European (GLMP01) version, then builds the game for your PC with the bundled compiler, in 20 to 60 seconds.


What it brings

• any resolution, widescreen and ultrawide, with the HUD anchored to the edges;
• up to 320 fps through interpolation, with the game logic kept at 30 updates per second, and VRR;
• optional enhanced lighting: coloured lights, soft shadows, a realistic flashlight beam, glowing ghosts;
• the European Hidden Mansion and its boss changes: with both discs, E. Gadd's lab offers both versions;
• cut content that can be switched back on, off by default, and an F1 menu that tweaks everything, difficulty included.

What's new since 1.1

• version 1.1 checks for updates by itself, adds a new ambient occlusion and CRT filters (RGB, S-Video, composite, RF);
• version 1.1.1 fixes the first key door, which made the memory overflow, especially on the European version;
• version 1.1.2 adds a portable mode, where everything fits in a single folder;
• version 1.1.3 fixes the Steam Deck freeze above 30 fps;
• version 1.1.4 fixes the freezes on Linux with an NVIDIA card and adds a Mirrored Mansion and a tab of silly options (sizes, Luigi colours in Mario or Wario style).

It runs on Windows 10 and 11 (Direct3D 12) and on Linux (Vulkan). The two-player mode, unfinished content from the original game, isn't complete. For your other GameCube games, see our Dolphin tutorial.
