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).
D215 (#37, merged 73768a03) un-gated the 1P weapon-model DL nodes, so the
PP7 + hand now render in the -level_09 intro-pan capture window. The
committed golden predated that, making `verify.sh bunker1` report
REGRESSION (worst_cell ~28) on every run.
Captured on main @ 3fa1ba53, clean default ini pinned to 640x480,
GE_PCDUMP=200-440:120. Gun eyeball-confirmed visible + correctly posed +
clean (no D217 garble in headless capture). Post-rebaseline
`verify.sh bunker1` = PASS worst_cell 12.3.

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.
