1.3 (PS Vita port)

1.3 build of the PS Vita port (SSB64VITA).

Changelog since 1.2

Netplay (new)

• Local ad-hoc — two Vitas / PS TVs on the same Wi-Fi, no setup. VS MODE → NETPLAY → LOCAL ADHOC → Host / Find Game.
• Online — direct-IP with predictive rollback (6-frame window). The host lobby tries UPnP automatic port forwarding and shows your public IP; if UPnP is off it tells you which ports to forward (26041/tcp + 26042/udp).
• Optional self-hosted lobby board (server/matchmaker/) so joiners can browse open games instead of trading IPs — gameplay stays direct P2P, no game data stored.
• Graceful desync recovery: both consoles return to the lobby instead of a dead disconnect screen.
• Host match rules page (press R in the lobby): items + per-item on/off list, team battle, friendly fire, damage ratio, handicap, stage/stock/time, RANDOM on most.

Controls

• Layout reworked toward the SSB64 3DS port.
• D-pad = N64 D-pad: navigates menus, and in-match emulates the left stick (tap = walk, double-tap = dash).
• Taunt moved to a right-stick flick.
• Forced from sceCtrl directly, so it applies even over an old saved binding config. Still fully remappable in the controller menu.

Classic (1P) mode

• 2-player co-op (second human or CPU) through the VS character-select; 2-player challenger duels; bonus stages; co-op death / continue rules.
• Scene-id fix so input enhancements gate correctly during Classic play.
• In-game reset support.

Menus

• MULTIPLAYER moved under VS MODE as a NETPLAY entry; whole netplay UI restyled to match VS OPTIONS.
• Text entry (name, IP, lobby server) uses the PS Vita system keyboard.

Rendering & stability

• More Fast3D / vitaGL performance work toward a stable 60 FPS.
• Boot-crash fixes (shader-compiler heap, frame presentation, texture-cache, stack/heap sizing, logger, .o2r read path).

Full details: CHANGELOG.md · online walkthrough: README → Playing online

Requires

• Your own copy of Super Smash Bros. (N64) US NTSC v1.0.
• BattleShip.o2r extracted from your ROM, copied to ux0:data/battleship/BattleShip.o2r (see scripts/extract-vita-data.sh).

Install

Copy battleship.vpk to the Vita and install with VitaShell (or similar). First launch needs a few minutes to compile the shader cache — don't interrupt it.

Known gaps

• 3–4 player netplay is not fully tested.
• A console behind CGNAT (some fibre / mobile) can only join, not host — no relay yet.

Alpha checkpoint build of the PS Vita port (SSB64VITA), moving on from the pre-alpha tag with continued real-hardware bring-up work: compact fighter-model diagnostics, reloc token-namespace rework, display-list buffer redzone/high-water hardening, and a modelview matrix-stack empty-state compatibility fix. See CLAUDE.md's PS Vita Port section and docs/vita_current_handoff_2026-08-21.md for background.
