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).

Linux reference-frame set for all 21 levels and the cross-platform golden
rule (D521); golden tooling made non-destructive (D524); the gate pins a
canonical in-tree save (D529) and the PRNG seed (D532); the capture tool's
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.

The 2026-09-09 set was captured at 30 fps (2 sim ticks/frame). Since D248
the port renders at 60 fps (1 tick/frame), so frames 200/320/440 landed in
the intro cutscene (nondeterministic camera, D117) and the golden failed on
every build, with or without D329. Moved the window to 400-880:240 (the same
sim ticks the original set sampled, now in settled gameplay); two independent
native-Windows captures agree 3/3.
verify.sh's ini pin rewrote only Width/Height, which kept personal
FovScale/DrawDistance/MSAA settings and failed the gate. It now writes a
defaults-only 640x480 ini (and pins/removes one when none exists).
Built the migrated tree (MSYS2 mingw64 + ROM + sidecar regen) and ran
-level_09 with GE_PCDUMP: HUD text and the exit arrow now read
right-side-up. D114/D116 confirmed as capture artifacts.
- tools_pc/golden/*.png regenerated from a fresh correctly-oriented run
(replaces the stopgap in-place flip); stray v*.png removed
- D75 shrunk: with upright captures the gun-barrel Bond RENDERS fine
(walk + fire) -- the "absent" reports were the flipped capture. The
Nintendo logo is genuinely broken (renders as 2 white blobs shifted
left -- a real logoinst transform bug, not a flip). Cast roll not
re-captured.
- D169 entry -> FIXED with the build/verify note

gfx_opengl_dump_bound_fbo wrote glReadPixels output (GL bottom-left
origin) straight into a top-row-first P6 PPM, so every GE_PCDUMP / F12
capture was upside-down. This is the entire source of the D114/D116
"HUD/text X-mirror" - four sessions chasing a fast3d mirror that never
existed, misreading inverted screenshots of asymmetric content. The
developer confirms the game renders correctly on real hardware.
- writer now emits rows top-to-bottom
- tools_pc/golden/*.png flipped in place to match + golden/README.md
- D114/D116 reclassified as capture-orientation artifacts (not deleted);
D75 "logo mispositioned" / RC1 "photo 180 deg" flagged for re-judging
- annotations in findings.md, GRAPHICS-BACKLOG.md,
TEXTURE-GLITCH-ANALYSIS.md, porting-notes.md D2, GE-ENV-PROBES.md
Not runtime-verified (migrated tree has no ROM/toolchain) - needs a
fresh capture to confirm text reads normally.
