v0.6.1 (pre-release)

The Dragon Age: Origins (Xbox 360) recompilation: a motion blur flicker fix, and fixes from a code review.

You need your own copy of the game as an Xbox 360 disc image (title 454108C0). This download contains no game code or data; the installer builds the game from your ISO on your PC.

Install or update (Windows)

• Updating from v0.3.x or later: the launcher offers this update itself (Update on its main menu). You can also run the new DAORecomp.exe and pick the same install folder.
• New install, or updating from v0.2.0 or older: download DAORecomp.exe below and run it. It isn't code-signed, so Windows may warn: More info → Run anyway. Pick the ISO and an install folder, accept the build tools license, and press Install. When it's done, the same exe becomes the game's launcher. An update only rebuilds what changed, and your saves, settings and mods are kept.
• DAORecomp-Installer.exe is the same file under its old name, for launchers before v0.5.2.

Fixed

• Motion blur flicker: with motion blur on, characters and parts of the scene could flicker while the camera moved. Some objects get a wrong motion vector for a single frame, and the blur made that visible. Now only motion that lasts more than a frame is blurred. The blur's tile pass costs about 0.05 ms more.
• Mod converter: a malformed mod file could make the PC→360 converter try to allocate gigabytes of memory. It now rejects such files right away.
• Installer Cancel: Cancel now stops a build step at once, including the compilers and linkers it started. Before, it waited for the step's next line of output, which could take minutes during a link.
• Timers: fixed a data race in the game's periodic timers.

Known issues

• The DLC campaigns have only been checked to start; please report anything that goes wrong in them.
• Linux (Wine/Proton) is still untested; HDR there depends on the compositor.
