A vanilla hack is one that uses the base game in its vanilla state for the bulk of the gameplay. Typically, vanilla hacks are created as a way to showcase a custom feature; such is the case. with Rainbow Star. Vanilla hacks are also often retextures that allow the player to play through Super Mario 64 as a different character; such as Super Birdo 64. To be categorised as a vanilla hack, a hack should predominantly use base game areas and levels- it should be easily recognisable to a non-ROM hacker which game it is.
