James Dansereau 461ea871c2 D344: orderly quit so exit never lands inside the GL driver; GE_QUITFRAME
Quit (quit event, window close, Alt+F4, from either SDL pump) used to
exit(0) immediately while the render thread could be mid-frame in the
driver: the likely trigger of the host's 0x119 bugchecks. Now quits are
requested; the render thread glFinish()es, unbinds the context and parks
at a frame boundary, and the host exits after (max 2 s). GE_QUITFRAME=<n>
gives the harness a clean self-quit; golden_gate.sh uses it.

fast3d — software RSP

A C++ interpreter that consumes the Gfx display list the game builds each frame and emits OpenGL calls, replacing the Nintendo 64's Reality Signal Processor and Reality Display Processor.

Origin and license

This code is adapted from the Perfect Dark PC port (port/fast3d/), which in turn is the Ship of Harkinian / libultraship fast3d, itself descended from sm64-port.

LICENSE.txt in this directory (MIT, © 2020 Emill, MaikelChan) covers that lineage. glad/ is generated by glad (© David Herberth, MIT). GoldenEye-specific changes in this directory are under the repository's top-level MIT license.

GoldenEye-specific work

The PD fast3d already handles G_TRI4 (GoldenEye uses it too). The GE additions are the custom color-combiner / render modes and the handling of GE's GBI extension commands. rsp/graphics/gmain.s (GE's real RSP microcode, in the repo root) is the ground truth for the exact command encodings.
