Furthest point

In game

What is shown

The main menu runs at 60 fps. NEW leads through the loading screen to the intro and the opening cart ride: the forest at 180 s and the arrival in Helgen by 360 s, with the characters and the village drawn, until the 420 s limit of the run. In the game it runs at about 6 fps. Audio was not checked (SDL dummy driver).

Current blocker

Speed in the game, about 6 fps (median frame 160 to 200 ms). The graphics queue worker is busy 99% of the time while the GPU is busy about 30 ms per frame; per frame, draws take about 125 ms and memory waits about 88 ms. The host import budget drops to 0 MiB after a vkAllocateMemory failure, and about 38 million imports are refused over the run.

Stops on the way, each with the build that got past the one before it:

1. NGS2: reverb channel conversion is not implemented, 19 s after start: the reverb voice has 2 inputs and 8 outputs. Fixed by fix(libSceNgs2.native): accept a reverb voice with different input and output channel counts #10347 (merged).
2. The New Game loading screen hangs at 140 to 151 s: ResourceMaterializer::ExtractPlan → MayDecide walks a shared condition once per path for shader 0x122151a400. fix(shader): decide each resource branch condition once per plan #11506.
3. AGC graphics: guest cube texture descriptor holds fewer than 6 array slices (format 71, 512x512x5, type 11, tile 27, mips 0..0 of 1) (base array 0) at 155 s: pixel shader 0x121ddc3d00 samples a cube whose descriptor holds five slices. fix(agc): sample cube descriptors with fewer than six slices as six faces #11507.

How it was run

1. relinker with the title's modules from sce_module, through a local script.
2. Cross pressed every 30 s; APS5_TRACE_SUMMARY_EVERY=10.
