In case it may help some people, here's how to set up the mod for running in P64 2.1
I renamed a P64 2.1 directory into "Project64 2.1 WWFLegends" because i use several mods and each of them have a copy of the P64 2.1 directory renamed.
If you do something like that, make sure to change the Path settings and the Rom directory setting to point to your correct directory.
- > The mudlord/rice plugin must go to (i use the 6.1.4 one personally, but you can use another version if it works better for you)
....\Project64 2.1 WWFLegends\Plugin\GFX\
- > The "WWF No Mercy" folder that contains all the mod texture must go in
....\Project64 2.1 WWFLegends\Plugin\GFX\hires_texture\
so you obtain
....\Project64 2.1 WWFLegends\Plugin\GFX\hires_texture\WWF No Mercy\
- > The cheat file "Project64.cht" must go to
....\Project64 2.1 WWFLegends\Config\
- > The save (WWF No Mercy.fla, WWF No Mercy.mpk, WWF No Mercy.pj.zip) must go to
...\Project64 2.1 WWFLegends\Save\
-> The special rom "WWF No Mercy (USA) No Mirrored Hair.n64" must go to
...\Project64 2.1 WWFLegends\Rom\
When launching the game, make sure to change the settings so it use the Rice/Mudlord plugin , not the Jabo one
Can help too, the settings i use for the video plugin to avoid having a crash :

For the NMThing folder, and so have the music and commentary, move it to :
....\Project64 2.1 WWFLegends\
Make sure to enable the cheat mode too once you play, and in case you don't use the NMThing music/commentary, make sure to disable the sound section of the cheats, or it can crash.
I read on the wrestlinglegendforum that someone had crash related to the arena cheats, i didn't had any, but in case you still get crashes, try disable the arena cheats
In a re-enactement of the original
Summerslam 90 tag team match betwenn the Hart Foundation and Demolitions.
After a battle of titan, the Hart Foundation managed to defeat again Demolitions thanks to Jim Neidhart going for a pin on one of the Demolitions member while Bret Hart kept the other away, earning the tag team belt for the Hart stable !
Though due to No Mercy limitations, no Demolitions cheating with their 3rd member and no Legion of Doom interfering to the benefit of the Hart Foundation like it happened in the original Summerslam 90.
But still how much fun it was as we were very close during the whole match
For fun, i added in the legends cheat file the occasional spirit boost cheat that is found in Showdown64 to make things more interesting, as it allows for some great comeback during a match

I'm not sure how the code work exactly, Keson mentionned it was dependant on damage, it always seems random to me but when it happens the match can get an unsuspected turn.
Maybe it could be considered for inclusion, it really helps keeping match not always one sided (and make AI matches even more fun to watch), simulating some unbelievable comeback that happens in wrestling.
