RPBB Static Recomp v0.1.2

Native Windows release of Rocket Power: Beach Bandits (GameCube, USA, GBQE78).

What's new in v0.1.2

  • Fixed the landing/collision stutter caused by controller rumble.
  • Rumble now runs on a dedicated thread, so controller writes cannot stall a
    frame.
  • The game's rapid rumble pulse train is averaged into a steady value instead of
    being passed through as weak on/off bursts.
  • Rumble strength is boosted to 3× the previous output.
  • Rumble duration is ⅓ of the previous timeout: 3.33 seconds instead of 10.

Play

  • Runs at a locked 60 FPS on ModernGekko's JIT core.
  • DSP LLE audio, SDL controller input, DualSense profile included.
  • SpongeBob-style options launcher with PLAY, GRAPHICS, AUDIO and CONTROLLER
    pages.
  • Internal resolution presets from 1x (640×528) to 12× (7680×4320).
  • Fullscreen windowed (borderless, default), exclusive fullscreen (native
    resolution at 60 Hz, desktop mode restored on exit), and windowed modes.
  • Widescreen support: 16:9 aspect ratio plus the widescreen hack, with Auto, 4:3
    and Stretch modes.
  • Custom box-art icons on rpbb.exe and rpbb-launcher.exe.
  • Supports RecompLauncher: pick your own USA ISO or
    extracted folder, choose resolution, aspect, graphics and window mode, and press
    Play.
  • First setup extracts an ISO automatically, verifies its GBQE78 ID and DOL hash,
    and checks the ISO against the verified USA dump.

Requirements

  • Windows 10/11 x64, Vulkan-capable GPU.
  • Your own legally dumped USA copy. No game data is included.
  • A controller.

Notes

  • The playable release uses ModernGekko's JIT core because it holds 60 FPS with
    headroom. The static DolRecomp C module (545,088 instructions, 0 unknown) is kept
    in the repository as the static-recompilation artefact and reaches 40-45 FPS.
  • Audio requires DSP LLE. If the game is silent, check the Windows volume mixer.
  • Saves live in %LOCALAPPDATA%\RocketPowerRecomp\GC\USA\Card A.
  • Known issue: unplugging the controller while the game is running can freeze the
    input thread. Reconnect it before launching; if it freezes, restart the game.
  • No game files, saves, or generated modules are in this repository.
