- M-35-QOL-REVIEW.md: per-change file:area breakdown, config keys with ranges/defaults, verification evidence. - M-35-PLAYTEST-CHECKLIST.md: the human handoff — what to do, what correct feels like, which key tunes it. Item 0 (default-config regression) first. - OPTIONS-MENU-PLAN.md: WI-3 design — recommends a port-layer fast3d 2D overlay over a src/ menu edit; resume checklist.

# M-35 QoL playtest checklist
|
||
|
||
Everything on this branch is config-gated to prior behaviour, so the
|
||
**first** thing to confirm is that nothing changed with a default
|
||
`ge007.ini`. Then flip the new keys and check the feel.
|
||
|
||
Edit `data/ge007.ini` while the game is closed.
|
||
|
||
---
|
||
|
||
## 0. Regression (default config) — do first
|
||
|
||
- [ ] Delete `data/ge007.ini`, launch, quit. It rewrites with new keys:
|
||
`[Input] MouseCaptureMode = 0`, `[Game] ScreenShakeIntensity = 1`.
|
||
Existing keys keep their values.
|
||
- [ ] Play a level normally (mouse grabbed on focus, as before). Mouse look,
|
||
aim (RMB), menus — all exactly as the last build. **No behaviour change
|
||
expected at defaults.**
|
||
- [ ] Alt-tab away and back — cursor frees / re-grabs (unchanged).
|
||
|
||
## 1. Click-to-lock capture — `Input.MouseCaptureMode = 1`
|
||
|
||
- [ ] Launch. At the main menu the **OS cursor is visible and free**; moving
|
||
the mouse moves the game crosshair 1:1 (see item 3).
|
||
- [ ] Click in the window during a level → cursor hides, mouse-look engages.
|
||
- [ ] Press **ESC** during a level → cursor reappears, mouse-look stops,
|
||
you can move the pointer off the window. (ESC does *not* quit.)
|
||
- [ ] Click back in → re-locks. First click only re-locks — it must **not**
|
||
fire the weapon.
|
||
- [ ] Open the pause/watch (Start), then a front-end menu → cursor frees
|
||
automatically. Return to the stage → re-locks without a click.
|
||
- [ ] Alt-tab out mid-level → cursor frees; alt-tab back → stays free until
|
||
you click (Quake behaviour).
|
||
- **Correct feel:** exactly like Quake/Nightdive remasters — click to play,
|
||
ESC to get your cursor back.
|
||
- **Tune:** none — it's a mode toggle.
|
||
|
||
## 2. Aim sensitivity — B3
|
||
|
||
- [ ] With `Input.MouseCaptureMode` either value, hold RMB (aim mode) and
|
||
make small aiming corrections. Default is now `MouseAimSpeed = 16`
|
||
(was 25).
|
||
- **Correct feel:** you can settle the sight on a distant guard's head
|
||
without overshooting; a fast flick still crosses the screen.
|
||
- **Tune:** `Input.MouseAimSpeed` (1–100+). Up = faster. If hipfire turning
|
||
now feels faster than aiming, raise `MouseAimSpeed` or lower
|
||
`Input.MouseTurnSpeed` (default 100). `Input.AimBand` (5–40, default 20)
|
||
widens the usable stick range past the aim gate — raise it if aim feels
|
||
capped/notchy at the extremes.
|
||
- [ ] Check the D166 hipfire pitch (mouse up/down without RMB): still
|
||
proportional taps, consistent with the yaw. Tune
|
||
`Input.HipfirePitchSpeed` (default 100).
|
||
|
||
## 3. Menu pointer 1:1 — needs `Input.MouseCaptureMode = 1`
|
||
|
||
- [ ] On the mission-select grid, move the OS cursor to each of the four
|
||
**corner** level tiles — the game crosshair must reach all of them
|
||
(this is the D169 case; absolute mapping should make it exact now).
|
||
- [ ] File-select, mode-select, difficulty-select, watch menu — crosshair
|
||
tracks the OS cursor with no drift, no lag, no acceleration.
|
||
- [ ] Keyboard nav (arrows / stick) still works on every screen.
|
||
- **Correct feel:** the crosshair sits exactly under the OS pointer, like a
|
||
normal PC menu.
|
||
- **Tune:** `Input.MenuPointerSpeed` (default 100) still scales the legacy
|
||
relative path; with capture mode the absolute path ignores it. If tracking
|
||
feels off, check the window isn't a weird aspect ratio (the map assumes the
|
||
render fills the window).
|
||
- **Note:** in legacy mode (`MouseCaptureMode = 0`) the menu still uses the
|
||
D165/D169 relative estimator — 1:1 menu tracking requires capture mode.
|
||
|
||
## 4. Screen shake — `Game.ScreenShakeIntensity`
|
||
|
||
- [ ] Default `1` — explosions shake the screen exactly as before.
|
||
- [ ] Set `0` — no shake on explosions / big hits.
|
||
- [ ] Set `2`–`3` — exaggerated.
|
||
- **Correct:** `1` is indistinguishable from the current build.
|
||

|
||
|
||
## Single most important thing to test first
|
||
|
||
**Item 0** — confirm a default `ge007.ini` produces a build that plays
|
||
identically to `def0e0ac`. If that holds, everything else is opt-in polish.
|
||
|
||
## Known not-done (parked, see OPTIONS-MENU-PLAN.md)
|
||
|
||
- No in-game options **menu** yet — only the config file + the expanded
|
||
`config.c` API and the `Game.ScreenShakeIntensity` hook. The menu is a
|
||
port-layer overlay design, documented, not built.
