- Pages: the two cblock sections render as markdown under GitHub Pages'
kramdown (markdown="1"); the Download block's unparsed `<file>` had swallowed
every heading below it. Gallery alt text says 3840x2160.
- Credit line (README "How it was made" + social preview card): several coding
agents directed by one maintainer, with a handful of contributors; card
findings count 430.
- Release-notes template: drop the stale header-stills comment and the Aztec
re-check-owed note.
- ROADMAP: Windows display-scaling (not DPI-aware) item
D572: CI-tarball verification (glibc floor, X220 + Deck fresh
install, 21/21 pixel gate on both).
Fixes:
- D565: AI awareness no longer follows two player render settings. Fog
distance is floored at 100 (below it the shortened clip hid guards from
AI on-screen checks); the D466 gameplay fog cull is rescaled to the game's
own FOV (identity at defaults).
- D566: Steam Deck Game Mode no longer shows the on-screen keyboard at
launch (SDL text input stopped; screen-keyboard hint off).
- D567: opening PC Options from the front end with a pad no longer drags
the game's crosshair to the top-left corner.
Docs and site:
- README News/Status/Features/controls brought up to date; the unpublished
v0.4.1 work is folded into v0.5.0 everywhere; stats to v0.5.0.
- Release notes reordered: player-facing highlights first, finding labels
and verification at the bottom.
- Site status rewritten; favicon is now the exe icon (make_icon.py writes
docs/favicon.ico).
- ROADMAP: AI review results, update-check follow-up, stale rows closed.
Verified: Windows + Linux builds; Windows pixel gate Surface 1 PASS;
Deck build deployed for the maintainer's Game Mode checks.
Deck/Windows playtest fixes: fog rework (D540) and RSP-style CPU near-plane
clip with per-vertex N64 fog (D543), with fog recomputed on near-plane-clipped vertices as the RSP does,
so the haze around the player stays steady (D553); colour-combiner clamp for banded walls
(D548); rocket and thrown-item stack overflows (D545, D549); menu
double-trigger mitigation (D541); Dam ending first-shot camera swivel
restored by removing an old port look-at workaround (D552); settings standardisation (D546), live
All unlocked (D547), F10 mouse (D544); static window title and the project
mark (the in-game crosshair shape, site gold) as window/taskbar icon and
favicon (D550). Reference frames re-based
on Windows, Linux and Steam Deck (A/B-confirmed); capture_p7.sh runs on
Windows. Opt-in update check, off by default (D551: one HTTPS request to
GitHub per launch when enabled; winhttp.dll loaded only then; the tag CI
job checks the tag against GE007_VERSION). Release notes, ROADMAP,
internals and security docs updated; tree-hygiene pass.

Public-copy language pass, homepage restructure and Documentation rename,
404 page, dead-anchor and permalink fixes, release-gate sign-off, and the
pre-release review fixes of the 2026-10-05 batch (probe-doc drift,
build-path hygiene, verify.sh and capture safety).

per-level re-pin bug fixed and the Linux set re-captured under the
canonical save (D530, D531); no-arg verify.sh exits non-zero. README and
docs visual/consolidation passes; the 15 MB preview gif replaced by stills.

- v0.4.0 status framing (the most complete release to date; the common
defect classes fixed; a short list of known caveats) and the pre-1.0
note, on both the README and the Pages home page.
- Dated release news section with links to the GitHub release tags.
- Keyword-reinforced meta descriptions; site masthead tagline.
- Accuracy: options section list per the shipped overlay, Xbox 1.1 (Jinx)
controller roles (D394), Select opens the overlay, Deck 2x MSAA / 250%
preset, background stats, footer last-updated stamp.
Plain declarative prose throughout the overview and section intros - no
product-page register, no first-person winks. Structure carries the period
feel: top anchor-nav line (middot separators), a dated news line for the
release, --- section rules, and a last-updated footer stamp.
- Docs site: drop jekyll-theme-cayman for a hand-rolled _layouts/default.html
(masthead band + middot text nav + footer with last-updated stamp and legal
line; head re-plumbed with {% seo %}, viewport, favicon); head-custom.html
fully rewritten to the chosen design tokens - charcoal/off-white/amber,
Libre Baskerville headings over system sans, square corners, 1px borders,
flat (no gradients/shadows), mermaid wrapper re-skinned.
- docs/index.md: v0.4.0 status (native widescreen, aim system, rebinding,
crosshair, rumble, rebuilt overlay); Honest status replaced by the v0.4.0
release-notes known issues; body anchor-nav line; legal footer moved to
layout.
- security-and-fidelity-status.md: front matter so {% seo %} titles it.
- README.md: v0.4.0 truth pass (status, Working/Known issues, Deck preset
2x MSAA / 250% per code, background stats 981 commits / 283 findings,
comparison table, GEPD-default controls paragraph, earlier builds) plus
markdown-native motifs matching the site: top anchor-nav line, --- section
rules, last-updated footer stamp, license badge in the amber accent.
- release-notes: SFTP sideload mention (leftover from the Deck session).
setupCctv orientation path traced end-to-end and every input verified
N64-faithful against the ROM for Bunker1: PcctvZ (not GcameraZ) switch
data bit-for-bit, boundpads match the pccg sidecar once the legitimate
load-time room-scale (pad->pos *= get_room_data_float2(), ~1.8542) is
applied, record config words incl. unkCC match; all matrix/atan2 helpers
are byte-identical src/game code. PC orientation values are what the N64
computes; if the symptom genuinely differs from N64 the remaining suspect
is fast3d's handling of the non-orthonormal lens matrix (unk84 row 0
scaled 0.1x). Blocked on user repro detail.
Also: plan/README/findings refreshed for M-197 (D75 fixed, user-confirmed)
and M-198 (D236 closed); D252 retired; findings index regenerated.
The campaign has 20 playable missions (SP_LEVEL_MAX // 20 in
bondconstants.h; mission_folder_setup_entries in front.c has exactly 20
entries). The old '21' counted -level_54 (LEVELID_CUBA), which the front
end jumps to after the final mission for the extended cast display +
credits scroll (do_extended_cast_display / bondviewRenderCredits, D129) -
it is not a selectable mission.
- README, docs/index.md, .github/release-notes.md,
docs/security-and-fidelity-status.md: 21 -> 20 in current-status claims
- AGENTS.md phase status: same correction
- docs/dev/LEVEL-STATUS.md + LEVEL-PLAYTEST.md: relabel the level list;
counting note explains historical '21/21 PASS' sweep results = 21 stage
boots (20 missions + ending sequence)
- social-preview card: stat line 21 -> 20, PNG regenerated (1280x640)
- GE-ENV-PROBES.md reconciled (18 new vars documented, GE_D243X3 tombstoned
after the M-170 permanent fix removed it) — CI gen_env_probes.py --check passes
- release notes gif alt text: ~32 s -> ~12 s (matches README/index captions)
- agentic-development.md stats regenerated for the month-one milestone
- docs/index.md status bumped to v0.3.0, honest-status synced with README
- .gitignore: local/ working-junk dir
- release-notes: drop the internal 'carried forward' meta paragraph; move the
D251 bottom-row duplication out of Known Issues into the F10 fix bullet
(no longer occurring per user live playtest of the D304 build)
- findings: close D251's last symptom; mark D304 live F10 playtest done;
de-stale D266/D271 'uncommitted' cells (landed in 532092c7); regen index CSV
- README: link the security & fidelity status page
- docs/security-and-fidelity-status.md: publish — re-verified for v0.3.0 on
2026-09-18 (bundle contents, no-networking source check, asset converter);
D271 now landed; D284 RNG history reworded as found-and-fixed pre-v0.3.0
Verified: build-pc.sh ntsc-final clean (243/243); tools_pc/verify.sh sweep
21/21 PASS on this tree (scratch/verify_sweep_v030_final.json).
Documents the four hotfix-batch changes since v0.2.1 (D255, D285, D282,
D293) in README Status and .github/release-notes.md, and folds in
2026-09-16 real-Deck confirmation that D285's audio-thread lock holds
under sustained overlapping-explosion combat (Archives, dual grenade
launchers + rocket-launcher-cheat guards).
Batched pass across README/release-notes/Pages (one commit instead of the
scattered per-fix pushes earlier this session, per new commit-cadence
preference):
- New known issues surfaced that weren't documented anywhere: no real
widescreen (16:9 stretches 4:3 rather than expanding FOV), no controller
rebinding UI / macOS-ARM builds, culling/LOD dropout on Streets/Egyptian
(D249), gunshot SFX oddities under sustained fire (D240/D241).
- Fixed a stale claim (in three places) that a wrong-sounding-instrument bug
was still open; it was fixed in v0.2.0 (D230).
- Softened the D259 "All unlocked" fix to reflect reality: still breaks
audio/aim if enabled before any save exists; flagged experimental
(new finding D281).
- Corrected D255's repro to the precise, deterministic trigger found this
session (Facility's door-opening computer terminals, Linux-wide not
Deck-specific) instead of the vaguer original combat-crash description.
- Logged D282 (front-end menus need right stick not left on gamepad) and
D283 (Steam Deck first-run preset skipped by an early Desktop Mode
launch) with user-facing workarounds.
- Refined D263 (Ourumov/Trevelyan) internally with a position-sensitivity
caveat; no public bullet since it doesn't block progression.
- Added pre-1.0 framing and a new README Roadmap section (known-issues
cleanup, PAL/JP, real widescreen, rebinding, macOS/ARM, LAN multiplayer
explicitly "under consideration, no ETA", plus an explicit "not currently
planned" list) across README/release-notes/Pages.
- Added an AI-development disclosure (agentic development as a genuine
study of the process, not just a port) across the same three docs.
- Pinned the release-notes hero GIF to the v0.2.1 tag instead of v0.2.0.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01KwZViAFaXua3PKgHHjNgvi
Bing Webmaster re-flagged the site after the first SEO pass (32f193a0):
- Every Jekyll-processed doc page (building.md, dev-process.md, internals.md,
porting-notes.md, dev/agentic-development.md, plus index.md caught last
time) opens with its own "# Heading" on top of the Cayman theme's masthead
<h1 class="project-name">, so all of them emitted two h1 tags, not just the
homepage. Demoted each page's opening heading to h2 -- anchor slugs are
unaffected (kramdown ids don't depend on heading level).
- index.md's meta description was 161 chars (1 over Bing's 160 limit) and
still said v0.2.0; re-trimmed to 133 chars and bumped to v0.2.1.
- README.md and docs/index.md's Status lines/comparison table bumped from
v0.2.0 to v0.2.1 to match the actual current release.
Verified against a live, cache-busted fetch of the deployed Pages site
(the first Bing report was reading a stale CDN edge cache from before the
32f193a0 deploy, per its own Last-Modified header) that the underlying fix
was already live; this pass addresses what was still genuinely wrong.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01KwZViAFaXua3PKgHHjNgvi
- Drop-in ROM wording everywhere (README quick start, Pages landing,
release notes, bundled README): first launch auto-generates the
derived assets via the frozen converter; no Python/toolchain needed.
PAL/JP marked not-yet-supported with issue #85 pointers.
- building.md: Linux build is CI-compiled and ships in the bundle
(was 'never built or run on Linux'); bundle note now describes the
frozen ge007-convert auto-spawn; PAL/JP sidecar caveat (D258).
- Status rewording across README/Pages/release notes: drop the
'first open-source port to our knowledge' claim; cutscene glitch
description aligned to 'mostly with James Bond'; index.md status
no longer contradicts the open D255 Deck crash.
- Em-dash cleanup across all GitHub Pages docs (index, building,
internals, porting-notes, dev-process, agentic-development,
release notes); internal dev logs untouched.
The old attract-bunker1/attract-dam PNGs predate the D227 sky, D229 water
and 60 fps fixes. Point both pages at the Sept-13 playtest gallery instead
(shot-06 Bunker 1, shot-01 Dam) — same files as the gallery below, honest
captions — and drop the stale PNGs.
- README and docs/index.md (Pages) now embed goldeneye-gh-preview.gif
where the mp4 <video> tag was; release notes already used the GIF
- git rm the 27 MB mp4 (GIF stays — it is the release-notes asset, pinned
to the v0.2.0 tag)
- remove three unreferenced docs/img/bugs screenshots left over from the
culling/D176 A-B captures
* README: 32 s gameplay preview montage (mp4) + preview-video runbook
* Prune: drop superseded goldeneye-demo.gif (replaced by gh-preview montage)
* Docs: v0.2.0 finalization pass — final wording, aligned known issues, Deck-verified line, social preview card
- README + pages site: 'v0.2.0 (pre-release)' -> v0.2.0 throughout; the
stale 'not yet verified on real Deck hardware' line is replaced with the
playtest fact (D253 fixed, D255 still open).
- Known-issues lists in README + site now match the release notes one-for-one
(adds the F10 bottom-row duplicate D251 and the intermittent Deck SIGSEGV
D255; D243/D230/D252/D245/D246/D75 carry their finding labels).
- Working list mentions AllUnlocked default-ON (D257) with the F10 opt-out.
- First-public-release note added to the README hero and site status line,
hedged with 'to our knowledge'.
- social-preview.png (1280x640 GitHub link card) composed from a gameplay
frame of the preview montage; scratchpad/make-social-preview.py is the
local recipe (gitignored, like make-preview.py).
- Commit docs/img/shots/manifest.csv (gallery -> source recording map);
gitignore the regenerable CONTACT-SHEET.jpg; drop scratch-gdb-cmds.txt.
* Social preview: regenerate card from updated briefing HTML (v0.2.0 final wording)
The PNG committed earlier was a screenshot of the rendered site (stale
wording, video element unrendered). The canonical source is
.github/social-preview.html per .github/social-preview.md; update its
Status/Statistics lines to the v0.2.0 final state and re-render:
- Status: RELEASED v0.2.0 — WINDOWS · LINUX · STEAM DECK
- All 21 solo missions — full campaign completed in playtesting
- ~22k lines C/C++ · ~10k Python (port layer + tools)
- ~250 bugs root-caused · two coding agents, one human, part-time
Verified by pixel-diff against the previous render: only the four text
bands changed; title/fonts/layout identical. Drop the unreferenced
root-level social-preview.png.
* docs: refresh social preview + status for v0.2.0 playtest results
- Social card: 'RELEASED v0.2.0', 21/21 missions completed in playtesting,
~250 bugs fixed, two agents + one human; re-rendered the PNG from the
canonical .github/social-preview.html source (pixel-diff vs the old render
shows only the four edited text bands changed)
- README Status: campaign now claimed as completable end to end (user
playtest: full campaign, Agent difficulty, PC); Working list matches
- findings: D255 updated with the Deck register capture (Rdi=nil -> NULL
ObjectRecord.model, destroy-path ordering case confirmed; truncation ruled
out) and the rule-#2 sign-off question for a guard; D254 field-verified
* docs: regenerate findings index (D254/D255 status updates)
STEAMOS detection in main() seeds video config defaults before configLoad;
first-launch-only by construction (an existing ge007.ini always wins). The
150% DrawDistance/LodDistance addresses authored N64 fade distances reading
short on the close-up Deck panel (e.g. the Dam lock fading in within sight)
while desktops keep the faithful 100% default.
