GoldenEye VR v0.5.1

GoldenEye VR v0.5.1

Bullet wounds on XBLA heads, and a tidier Mods page.

Project Bean (XBLA visuals)

• Head shots now leave a wound on Bean guards' heads, where the shot landed.
  A Bean head is its own mesh, so in v0.5.0 a head shot's wound went to the
  body's collar and the face stayed clean. As in Dab's Mod, a head wound
  covers a smaller area than a body wound, and hits elsewhere no longer mark
  the head.

Launcher

• Mods: the Blood patch checkbox has its own row above Done again. The
  page still fits without scrolling in every download state.

Validation

• Checked on Quest 3: head-shot wounds on Bean guards and the Mods page
  layout.
• Native regressions cover the skin shader's head and body wound radii and the
  Mods page in every download state at Quest font size.

GoldenEye VR v0.5.0

GoldenEye VR v0.5.0

XBLA visuals (Project Bean) at 120 Hz on Quest 3, much closer to the Xbox
release's look, guards' missed shots flying past again, Wreck's blood patch as
a mod, and a fix for a Goldfinger 64 title-screen crash.

Performance: XBLA at 120 Hz

• The game now ticks before the headset frame's wait, in time it used to spend
  idle, and the eye view is drawn by the same replay that draws every
  in-between frame. On Quest 3 at 120 Hz on Dam with XBLA rooms, missed frames
  went from about 145 to 4-8 a minute (all during full-speed turning), with no
  compositor drops, and motion-to-photon latency dropped from 31.5 to about
  26.5 ms.
• Fewer draw calls: Dam's trees and the opaque world draw 4096 triangles at a
  time, and Show stats draws its readout as one picture instead of about 270
  draws a frame.
• Smoother walking, turning and hand tracking: frames whose display time came
  back slightly earlier than predicted no longer make locomotion and aim
  steadying stutter.

Project Bean (XBLA visuals)

Ported from Dab's Mod:

• Guards and props take the room's shading, props darken when shot, pickups
  fade, and the first-person gun is tinted, as GoldenEye draws them.
• Dead bodies fade out; destroyed props blacken and crumple.
• Shot guards show bullet wounds on their Bean bodies.
• Windows reflect the view properly instead of one flat colour that jumped as
  you moved your head.
• Dam's reservoir moves at GoldenEye's own water speed, with its two-layer
  ripple, instead of racing across at four times that.
• GoldenEye backdrop the Xbox release removed no longer shows: the boulder
  standing in the water in front of the dam in Dam's opening shot is gone.
• Opening shots and cutscene cameras that stand outside the level or inside a
  prop no longer show the backs of Bean rooms and props.
• Glass draws once, in the translucent pass.
• The boot sequence shows the release's gold Rare logo and its line in place
  of the Nintendo logo screen.
• Bean HD fill (Mods, on by default): pictures Bean leaves at the
  cartridge's (such as mission-select stage pictures) come from the HD + AI or
  HD pack when one is installed.

Gameplay

• Guards' missed shots fly past Bond again, as in GoldenEye (#181). Since
  v0.4.11 every miss stopped and sparked on Bond, so every bullet looked like a
  hit while most did nothing. Damage and hit rates are unchanged.
• Mods: Blood patch (by Wreck), off by default: shot guards spray the red
  blood sparks Rare left in the game instead of smoke. The values from Wreck's
  patch are applied at run time; your ROM is not changed. In the launcher's
  Mods tab or the watch's Mods page.
• Stepping off the guard tower's top edge onto its stairs no longer jerks the
  camera height.
• Props that are off screen can't be grabbed. A stale position had let a grip
  board the Dam speedboat from the other side of the level.

Goldfinger 64

• Fixes a crash on the title screen's character cast (report da10370a): the
  cast's models now fit the campaign's model capacity.

Validation

• Checked on Quest 3: 120 Hz frame timing on Dam (traces per pipeline mode),
  locomotion and hand smoothness, the guard tower stairs, window reflections,
  the blood patch, Bean bullet wounds, the Dam reservoir's motion, Dam's
  opening shot, and the Goldfinger title cast.
• Native regressions cover the early tick's locomotion and aim samples, the
  skin shader's wounds and reflections, Bean room mapping, and the Goldfinger
  cast tables.
• Still worth play: multiplayer at 120 Hz, both scopes, pausing in and out,
  and destroying the boat mid-crossing.

GoldenEye VR v0.4.23

GoldenEye VR v0.4.23

Steadier aiming at 90 and 120 Hz, tidier body slots, each hand's ammo on its
own hand, and a fix for a Dam speedboat crash.

Aiming and comfort

• Aim steadying now updates every headset frame, including in-between
  redraws, so the gun and scope no longer hold still between game frames.
  Its strength is matched to the 60 Hz feel at any display rate: fast hand
  moves follow as quickly at 90 and 120 Hz as at 60.
• Screen shake (explosions and the like) is off in VR. Walking head bob stays
  off; recoil and weapon animations are unchanged.

Body slots

• The chest (knives, thrown) and belt (gadgets) now show the item a grip
  would take, at half size and centred on the slot, so they stay out of the
  way. The hip pistols and reload magazines are unchanged.
• The watch laser shows on the belt as the watch alone, face up, at the size
  it is on your wrist, instead of the whole two-arm rig.

HUD

• Dual-wielding: each gun's ammo count now sits on its own hand. The off
  hand's count used to sit beside the gun hand's on the gun hand.

Dam speedboat

• Fixes a crash after the speedboat was destroyed or removed (report
  252ac6ae). The boat is a normal prop now; if the hull is lost while you
  ride it, you land back on the north jetty instead of mid-reservoir.

Project Bean

• Hidden and fully culled Bean meshes are skipped before any setup, and
  mirrored skins stay on the GPU. On Quest 3 with XBLA visuals on, fresh
  frames were 0.3-0.9 ms faster in moving and wall-contact phases; with only
  the Bean pack (XBLA visuals off) these paths don't run and nothing changes.
  120 Hz with XBLA rooms is still over budget when turning.

Validation

• Checked on Quest 3: body-slot models and their slot centres, the watch on
  the belt, dual-wield ammo panels, and A/B frame timing against v0.4.22
  (three runs per build, Dam). Details:
  VR tracking and Bean checks,
  crash 252ac6ae.
• Native regressions cover the steadying response across 60/90/120 Hz, the
  boat's lifecycle under ASan/UBSan, slot scale and centring, and the
  two-hand ammo split.
• Still worth play: destroying the boat mid-crossing, and the chest and belt
  models at your own slot positions.

GoldenEye VR v0.4.22

GoldenEye VR v0.4.22

Fixes co-op mission starts blocked by unused player bodies, including the
first player's Facility air vent. The mission intro also keeps your checked
start position intact when gameplay begins.

Co-op starts (#164)

• Co-op reserves four player bodies even when the host plays alone. Unused
  bodies could block movement with invalid collision bounds. Empty, loading
  and departed player slots now stay out of collision checks, and every
  body's bounds are initialized at spawn.
• Real teammates keep the existing soft collision: they can pass one
  another instead of trapping each other in a vent or narrow corridor.
  Four-player parties keep the same rule.
• Intro animation no longer replaces the checked gameplay position or floor
  tile. Normal and skipped intros, repeated mission loads and a late join
  during the intro use the corrected handoff.

Validation

• Quest 3 logs reproduced the Facility vent failure with the host alone and
  identified an unused player body as the blocker. The user retested the
  replacement and approved this release.
• Native collision and intro regressions pass, including vacant slots with
  invalid bounds, occupied teammates, full four-player parties, repeated
  loads, late-join corrections and offline controls. The regression fails
  on the previous build at the vacant body's movement-volume check.
• All 77 multiplayer regressions, 30 Android release unit tests and the
  twenty-mission floor audit pass.
• Broader two/four-headset starts, abort/reloads and host swaps still need
  play, especially Jungle, Train, Control, Caverns and Cradle. Check Jungle
  Natalya separately. Keep #164 open until those results are confirmed.

GoldenEye VR v0.4.21

GoldenEye VR v0.4.21

Tomorrow Never Dies 64 starts again: v0.4.20 crashed launching the
campaign, and then after the Rare logo. Co-op mission starts no longer
leave players stuck in scenery, and guards' muzzle flashes no longer show
through trees and walls.

This APK contains no GoldenEye, XBLA or Perfect Dark game data. Use your
existing USA GoldenEye 007 ROM. Updating over an earlier release keeps your
settings.

Tomorrow Never Dies 64

• TND64 Expanded 06-22 rebuilt GoldenEye's animation data, moving every
  animation but the first. The game read them where GoldenEye has them and
  crashed as the campaign started. It now reads TND's own animation tables
  and finds each animation where TND put it, as Dab's Mod does.
• TND64 keeps GoldenEye's Rare logo but moved it. The title read it from
  GoldenEye's address and crashed after the logo spun. It now reads it where
  TND keeps it.
• Goldfinger 64 and GoldenEye load as before.

Co-op mission starts (#164)

• On v0.4.20 the first player couldn't move at Jungle's start, and on
  Train, Control, Caverns and Cradle neither player could. Every player's
  start, the first player's included, is now checked against the level's
  loaded scenery at standing height. A player whose spot is blocked starts
  at the nearest clear spot beside it. A clear start pad is kept as before.
• Solo starts are unchanged.

Guards' muzzle flashes

• Guards and other players hold the detailed first-person gun models
  (DetailedGuns, on by default), and their muzzle flash was drawn the way
  your own gun's is: on top of everything. A guard firing from behind a
  tree trunk or a wall showed its flash through it, in the headset and on
  the screen. Their flashes now hide behind the world; your own gun's flash
  is unchanged.

Validation and remaining checks

• On real ROMs, all 173 of TND's moved animations read back as TND's own and
  its logo is found where its layout says; Goldfinger 64's campaign check
  still passes. TND64 loaded into its first mission in the headset.
• The rest of the TND campaign needs play, including its Girl Power
  options.
• Co-op starts: the placement test runs the game's own collision code and
  fails on v0.4.20; the floor audit passes for all twenty missions. Two
  headsets still need to start Jungle, Train, Control, Caverns and Cradle,
  then the rest and a late join. In Jungle, check that Natalya follows once
  the first player can move (reported stuck in co-op on v0.4.20); on this
  build she moved normally in Jungle in the headset.
• Muzzle flashes: a guard firing from behind a Jungle trunk is hidden by it
  in the headset. Each of the 13 cartridge guns with a flash is checked as
  the game loads it.

GoldenEye VR v0.4.20

Project Bean visuals from your own copy of GoldenEye XBLA, the Goldfinger 64
and Tomorrow Never Dies campaigns, the Dam speedboat, and per-gun Gun fit you
can place by hand.

This APK contains no GoldenEye, XBLA or Perfect Dark game data. Use your
existing USA GoldenEye 007 ROM. Updating over an earlier release keeps your
settings.

Project Bean (XBLA) visuals

• The launcher's Mods page imports the XBLA release's meshes, textures,
  fonts and pictures from your own copy of GoldenEye XBLA: its .7z, a
  .zip, or the Xbox 360 package. Press Choose copy... beside
  XBLA / Bean and pick it. Nothing is downloaded; the app keeps only the
  files Bean draws (about 360 MB). Select Bean under Visuals beside
  Original, HD and HD + AI.
• Characters, heads, guns, props, rooms, skies, the HUD, menus and the
  briefing folder use the release's art. Gameplay, collision and animation
  stay the original game's. This follows Dab's Mod's Bean renderer.
• First-person guns move their own slides, cylinders and drums, show the gold
  and silver guns' metal, and the rocket launcher carries its own round. The
  watch and weapon wheel show the Bean models.
• In the headset the off hand is Bean's own arm with the watch. Holding a gun
  with both hands, that arm holds it, pinned to the gun. The watch laser and
  detonator are pressed by Bean's hand.
• Toggle Bean during play in watch > VR options > Mods and fun, or hold
  one grip and click the right stick for a second.

Gun fit

• Each gun keeps its own place in the hand and its own two-handed hold, so
  fitting one pistol no longer moves another. Bean's models start from fits
  made on Bean's arm.
• Hold the off hand's trigger in Gun fit to place by hand: holding a gun with
  both hands, the holding hand takes your off hand's place and turn on the
  gun; otherwise the gun moves with your off hand. The sticks still
  fine-tune, A saves and B undoes.

Campaigns, Dam and multiplayer

• The launcher's campaign dropdown starts Goldfinger 64 1.0 or Tomorrow
  Never Dies 64 Expanded 06-22 from your own patched ROMs, with separate
  saves. Hack campaigns are solo only. See
  Goldfinger 64 and Tomorrow Never Dies.
• Dam: board the speedboat at the north jetty and cross to the island
  (solo). Wall alarms take hits again.
• A tall character's view no longer rises through low doorways (Caverns'
  tunnel doors), in solo and multiplayer.
• The host's stage dropdown fits every stage's name.
• Multiplayer's temporary health and armour gauges appear when hit with
  radar enabled, whatever the comfort settings.

Renderer

• With Bean, characters are skinned on the GPU and the world is batched by
  material, which lowers Dam frame times on Quest 3. Scopes and redrawn
  frames keep their own state.

Validation and remaining checks

• All 69 Python regression files pass, including new native checks for the
  two-handed hold placed by hand, per-gun fits, doorway clearance on stairs
  and in multiplayer, and the stage dropdown's width. The campaign binder
  check passes on a real Goldfinger 64 1.0 ROM, and a real Tomorrow Never
  Dies 64 Expanded 06-22 ROM matches, binds and rebinds. The Bean mapping
  audit passes all 456 native registrations. The signed ARM64 release builds
  with the existing release certificate.
• Bean, Gun fit, the doorway fix and the stage dropdown were played in the
  headset before release. Some Bean material effects (Dam and Complex water,
  Silo and Control floors) are still simplified, and the grenade is still
  held in the original hand: the release has no hand holding one.
• The campaigns, the speedboat and alarms need broader play; multiplayer
  checks on two headsets remain outstanding.

GoldenEye VR v0.4.19

GoldenEye VR v0.4.19

Fixes for offhand two-handed aiming, mission gadgets and the watch laser,
plus ROM validation and a startup decompressor crash fix.

This APK contains no GoldenEye or Perfect Dark game data. Use your existing
USA GoldenEye 007 ROM. Updating over an earlier release keeps your settings.

Hands, aiming and scopes

• Valid controller poses now keep updating during temporary tracking occlusion.
  A two-handed hold follows those poses instead of freezing both hands until
  full tracking returns. Invalid poses retain their last known room position;
  inferred velocities do not start motion throws or melee attacks.
• Retained controller poses and the scope lens use the current headset frame
  consistently, addressing the lens locking to the headset and jumping against
  the gun between frames when supporting an offhand weapon.

Gadgets and the watch

• Either hand can select handheld mission equipment already in inventory from
  the gadget belt, including the Dam's covert modem. A mission device can be
  held by one hand at a time; pending or stale selections cannot duplicate it.
• The GoldenEye X offhand gadget and hand use the same fitted origin and
  reflection. The watch stays attached to the posed offhand forearm while it
  holds a gadget.
• The watch laser is available from either gadget belt selector. Selecting it
  always equips its usual watch and firing-hand arrangement, respecting
  handedness mode. Drawing another item with the offhand exits the laser setup
  and keeps the replacement instead of having the watch rig cancel it.
• Using the key analyser or weapon case equips its result into the initiating
  hand in VR. The other hand keeps its item.

Startup and launcher

• PR #168 checks every manifest-listed compressed ROM resource before starting
  the game and bounds resource decompression. Damaged or incompatible data
  produces a ROM error instead of letting that decoder read past its input.
• Fixes the immediate launch crash introduced by the first PR #168 test APK:
  the cartridge decoder's exported inflate name intercepted zlib's function.
  The legacy entry point now stays private, and a regression test links both
  decoders together.
• The multiplayer Players dropdown includes enough width for the full label.

Validation and remaining checks

• All 43 Python regression files pass. Native checks cover controller pose validity,
  between-frame grip
  and scope transforms, gadget ownership and use, both gadget hand models,
  watch-laser selection and replacement, body slots, launcher layout and bounded
  ROM decoding. The signed ARM64 release builds with JDK 20 and the existing
  release certificate.
• The latest combined changes still need headset playtesting, including startup,
  gadget fit, controller occlusion and offhand slot draws with the watch laser.
  Automated checks do not confirm how these look and feel in the headset.
• Multiplayer checks on two headsets remain outstanding.

The watch's Control page now shows the Quest Touch controllers in your hands
and what each control does, and the off hand's trigger no longer aims.

data. You need a legally obtained ROM of the USA GoldenEye 007 cartridge you
own. Installing over an earlier release keeps your ROM and settings.

Multiplayer compatibility. The network protocol stays at 21. v0.4.16,
v0.4.17 and v0.4.18 play together; nothing in a match's messages changed.

Touch controllers on the watch — PR #166

• Your controllers, not the N64 pad. The watch's Control page used to show
  the N64 controller. It now shows the Touch controllers for your headset:
  Quest 1, Quest 2, Touch Plus (Quest 3 and 3S) or Touch Pro. To pick a set
  yourself, for example Touch Pro controllers paired to a Quest 3, use
  VR settings → Controls → Controllers on the watch.
• What each control does. Under each controller is a list of its controls
  and what they do right now. It follows the play mode, left-handed mode,
  Swap sticks, what your off hand holds, Grip use and the other grip gestures,
  and Motion throwing. A change in the watch's VR settings shows as soon as
  you go back to the page.
• Live controls. Pull a trigger, squeeze a grip, push the stick or press a
  button: that part moves on the model and lights green, and its line turns
  white. As with the N64 controller, select the page's Controller row and use
  the stick to spin and tilt the pair.
• The models are Meta's controller art, used to show the controllers.

Off-hand trigger

• No more crosshair from the off hand's trigger. In stereo, an empty off
  hand's trigger aimed, which showed your gun hand's crosshair. Your gun
  hand's grip already does that. The off hand's trigger now fires or throws
  what that hand holds and does nothing when it's empty. With GoldenEye X
  remote mines out, it still sets them off.

Known issues and untested areas

• Two headsets. Bots, host speed changes, client view, late join and host
  migration still need play on two headsets.
• Campaign co-op (#161 to #164). These issues are closed with this
  release; the fixes have been in since v0.4.16. Solo Natalya on Jungle was
  checked in the headset. Two- and four-player co-op checks are still owed.
  Reopen an issue if it comes back.
• Touch controller sets. Touch Plus on a Quest 3 was tested in the
  headset. The Quest 1, Quest 2 and Touch Pro models were checked in PC
  previews of the page.

Validation

• Automated. All 38 Python test files pass. The watch controller test
  now runs the Controls page with the Touch pair: one depth clear before it,
  opaque and fading.
• Headset. The user tested a build of these changes on a Quest 3 before
  release.
• Build. The release APK is signed with the existing release key, and its
  v2 signature verifies.

GoldenEye VR v0.4.17

A fix for a crash at the start of online matches with bots, a scope that sits
on the gun in your off hand, and no more bot pickup text on the host's screen.

Bring your own game. This APK contains no GoldenEye or Perfect Dark game
data. You need a legally obtained ROM of the USA GoldenEye 007 cartridge you
own. Installing over an earlier release keeps your ROM and settings.

Multiplayer compatibility. The network protocol stays at 21. v0.4.16
and v0.4.17 play together; nothing in a match's messages changed.

Crash fix — report fb1c9718

• Bots no longer crash a match at the start. A collision check walks the
  rooms along a line and keeps up to twenty of them, then marks the end of its
  list one slot past it. On the N64 that slot was spare; on the Quest it is the
  stack guard, so the game stopped with "stack corruption detected". Bots run
  that check at every step of planning a path, which made it likely seconds
  into a round. Both checks that keep such a list now have room for the end mark.

Off-hand scopes

• The scope sits on the gun in either hand. A GoldenEye X sniper rifle,
  laser or KF7 in your left hand is drawn mirrored, but its scope was placed for
  an unmirrored gun: about 14 cm to the left on the sniper. The scope now
  mirrors with the gun.
• One scope fit for both hands. The fit you set on the right hand in Gun
  fit carries over to the left, mirrored. There is nothing to fit separately.
  The original GoldenEye guns aren't mirrored in the left hand and are unchanged.

Bots in online matches

• No bot messages on your screen. The game keeps a message line per player,
  room for five, and online matches have eight. Bots in the last three slots
  wrote their pickup and kill text past the end, into the top message, so it
  showed whenever a top message was up. Only your own messages are posted now,
  and every slot has its own line.
• Bot pickup sounds come from the bot. Body armour and key pickups played in
  your ears wherever the bot was. They now play where the bot stands, as gun
  and ammo pickups already did.

Known issues and untested areas

• Two headsets. Bots, host speed changes, client view, late join and host
  migration still need play on two headsets.
• Campaign co-op. #161 to #164 stay open until headset play with two and
  four players confirms them.

Validation

• Automated. All 38 Python test files pass, including 73 native
  multiplayer checks. The new room-list test runs the production line and
  volume checks with a full twenty-room walk under bounds trapping; the old
  buffers trap. The GE-X weapon test checks the scope in both hands and both
  handedness modes; the old placement fails it on the sniper.
• Headset. Tested in the headset on a build of these changes before release.
• Build. The release APK is signed with the existing release key, and its
  v2 signature verifies.

data. You need a legally obtained ROM of the USA GoldenEye 007 cartridge you
own. Installing over an earlier release keeps your ROM and settings.

Multiplayer compatibility. The network protocol moves from 20 to
21, because a match now carries the host's movement speed. v0.4.15 and
older can't join v0.4.16 games. Everyone in a session needs this build.

Movement speed — PR #165

• Choose your speed. 50% to 200% in 25% steps; 100% is the default. Solo
  and host settings are saved separately. Solo: launcher Comfort, or the
  watch's Game Options > VR Settings > Comfort during a mission. Host: launcher
  Multiplayer > Host > Match, or pause > Rules during a session.
• It applies at once. Solo changes take effect on the next step. A host's
  change updates the whole session, bots included, without a restart, a new
  round, or a ready reset. Clients see the host's percentage but can't change it.
• Room-scale walking is unchanged. Walking around your room stays 1:1.

Launcher and fits

• Two columns. Match, Comfort and host lobby setup share two columns, so
  a full eight-player lobby fits. Roster rows are tighter; every name stays
  visible and Kick still asks first.
• Custom weapons use an Edit popup.
• Chest and Belt defaults use your saved Quest fits, scaled to height.
  Personal overrides are kept. See body slots.
• Watch controller. The Controls model clears inherited world depth before
  drawing, so its shell is no longer hidden by the scene behind it.

Campaign co-op fixes — #161 to #164

• #161 Surface II. Equipping a mine no longer makes a remote player's
  hand place a world mine the mission then rejects. Throws still work as before.
• #162 Bunker II. Collected documents are shared between host and clients.
  The comparison still needs both documents.
• #163 Jungle. Natalya no longer picks player bodies as guard targets.
• #164 Co-op starts. Parties start on the intended first pad, spaced
  apart with floor and scenery checks. Late joins use the same spacing.

Issues #161 to #164 stay open until headset play confirms them.

Known issues and untested areas

• Two headsets. Host speed changes during a live match, client view, late
  join and host migration still need play on two headsets.
• Campaign starts. Co-op starts and the Surface II, Bunker II and Jungle
  checkpoints need headset play with two and four players.
• Watch controller. The Controls shell needs a headset look.
• Solo Jungle. A user playtest on this build saw Natalya following, shooting,
  walking and crouching normally. The mission wasn't completed.

Validation

• Automated. All 37 Python test files pass, including 73 native multiplayer
  checks: live speed authority, readiness and countdown preservation,
  snapshots and host migration.
• Android. 24 unit tests pass.
• Campaign regressions. The #161, #162 and #163 regressions fail against
  the pre-fix commit d048e74 and pass on this build.
• Build. The release APK is signed with the existing release key, and its
  v2 signature verifies.

Installation

Use Update in the headset launcher when v0.4.16 appears, or install
GoldenEye-VR-v0.4.16.apk over your current version with SideQuest or ADB. It
uses the existing release signing key. See the
install guide.

Android version: 0.4.16; versionCode: 71; network protocol: 21 (v0.4.15
and older can't join).
