GoldenPad 0.1.0 Preview 4

Preview 4 repairs the shared GoldenEye controller path and the mission tank
controls reported in issue #17. It keeps Preview 3's ROM import, saves, audio,
renderer, touch layouts, Mac keyboard and mouse commands, and experimental
multiplayer rendering boundaries.

Highlights

  • Uses one shared controller mapping on iPhone, iPad, and Apple Silicon Mac.
    GoldenPad reads GoldenEye's active 1.1 Honey, 1.2 Solitaire, 1.3 Kissy, or
    1.4 Goodnight style instead of applying a separate platform interpretation.
  • Preserves raw controller input outside live gameplay so the title screen,
    mission menus, watch, and controller connection path do not inherit tank or
    modern-look translation.
  • Restores GoldenEye's native manual-sight behavior while Aim is held: Bond is
    stationary, the left stick moves the weapon and reticle, and the right stick
    is neutral until Aim is released.
  • Repairs the player-enterable tank used by Runway and Streets. The left stick
    owns drive and hull turning, the right stick owns turret aim after the native
    hatch/start transition, and Fire operates only the currently selected weapon.
    GoldenEye's authentic mounted weapon cycling remains available, including
    ordinary weapons and Tank Shells.
  • Raises absolute external-controller right-stick response by the requested
    final 20 percent, from 1.56 to 1.872 degrees per frame at full deflection.
    Touch, mouse, native manual Aim, left-stick movement, and menus are unchanged.
  • Removes the obsolete separate movement-adapter setting. The active GoldenEye
    control style is now reported automatically in Settings and diagnostics.

The 20-member Mac archive contains a native arm64, ad-hoc-signed,
non-notarized app. Its sorted app-content SHA-256 is
d2d0824047061b81ad3ef1b2fd2fd61fde09fc759176b782209c41279217a341.

Acceptance record

  • On physical iPad, the user accepted menu navigation, ordinary movement and
    right-stick look, left-trigger manual Aim, Runway tank entry, drive, hull
    turn, turret control, weapon cycling, KF7 and Tank Shell firing, exit and
    re-entry, return to title, and a later Facility regression pass.
  • That accepted signed test executable has SHA-256
    2b31f8868885712fbad34cef1aea20b1dee48f59fc9d930cbd3fa8b8e82b6b12
    and used the 1.56-degree controller-look baseline.
  • The final 1.872-degree public executable is version 0.1.0 build 4 and has SHA-256
    d83361f4daa70014b378aed20b9e26dc7c787d77b0fcd000816d536aecc8e66b.
    It incorporates the user's requested 20 percent response increase and passed
    the shared input matrix, complete device build, symbol audit, and package
    audit. This exact unsigned release executable was not installed for a second
    physical pass before publication.
  • The native Mac target compiled and its archive passed architecture, signing,
    dependency, symbol, license, private-path, and game-data audits. Issue #17
    remains open because build/package proof does not replace reporter gameplay
    verification on Mac.
  • The tracked modern-controls source patch matches the ignored build input.
    Both generated patch halves were rebuilt together. Their SHA-256 values are
    4a829165889a4e736199841c4c4237ee6a03ed97fa1ce6d891dfc864634862ff

    for patches_bin.c.

Known limitations

  • Issue #17 remains open until the reporter confirms Runway tank controls on
    the Preview 4 Mac Alpha and provides diagnostics if a problem remains.
  • Local multiplayer remains experimental. Slight lighting flicker and real
    Player 3 and Player 4 controller ownership remain open.
  • Online and peer-to-peer multiplayer are not implemented.
  • Native-60-Hz automatic-fire authenticity, intermittent audio static,
    screenshot/background lifecycle behavior, A12X compatibility issue #9,
    stage-specific rendering faults, and long-session performance remain tracked
    technical debt.
  • The Mac Alpha retains the thin far-right blue edge and is not notarized.
