1.12

Graphics and enhancement settings now apply during play, with new Windows HDR output, controller remapping, and a fix for the animated-text trails that remained after 1.11.

• Change resolution, aspect ratio, antialiasing, texture filtering, ambient occlusion, draw distance, Clean HUD, motion blur and fast loading without restarting the game. Mods and imported music still use a game restart.
• Enable optional HDR output on Windows, with adjustable Paper white and automatic or manual peak brightness. Enable HDR for the display in Windows first. HDR expands highlights from the original SDR image and falls back to SDR when unavailable.
• Remap compatible controllers for up to four players. Bind buttons, triggers and stick directions while preserving analog input, clear bindings, or restore a player's defaults. Mappings save automatically and apply immediately.
• Fixed the remaining animated-text trails by correcting the blending path used by the game. The captured case now fades correctly at high refresh rates, including 3x resolution with 4x MSAA.
• Removed redundant labels and restart notices from Settings.

The Windows Release build, 52 CPU diagnostic groups, 107 input checks, all 273 rendering checks, and hidden Settings checks passed. The trail regression reproduced eight failures before the fix; all 12 cases now pass on the GPU and software renderer. Validation used offline diagnostics. Linux and macOS gameplay still need hardware validation; HDR output is currently Windows-only.

Download Installation.zip and extract it over your existing source folder, keeping build and data. Rerun Install.cmd on Windows, Install.desktop on Linux, or Install.command on macOS. Back up your saves, settings, achievement progress, imported music and mods first. See the README for backup paths and complete setup instructions. Your own US Xbox XISO is required; game files are not included.
