N64brew user HailToDodongo has published a ray-marcher for the N64 which runs on the CPU and RSP in parallel. The CPU does the basic loop per pixel incl. ray construction and the final shading,
whereas the RSP does the loop per ray to determine the distance.

Spooky Илюха has been playing around with the concept of HDR on the N64 by leveraging the RDP (meaning no custom microcode required!). Since the color combiner's multiplier uses 9-bit color depth, it clamps the overbrightened pixels to 255 instead of overflowing.

HailToDodongo has managed to get large textures (256x256 RGBA16) working on the N64 using a deferred shading approach. This is done by having the CPU be the one to actually perform the texturing, rather than the RDP, bypassing the 4kb TMEM limitation.
