GoldenEye VR v0.1.1: hands, gadgets and a better watch 🍸

A polish update to v0.1.0, focused on what you see in your hands in stereo VR.

Bring your own game. This APK contains no GoldenEye game data. You need a ROM of the USA cartridge you own. Installing over v0.1.0 keeps your ROM and settings.

New

• Bond's watch arm on your left hand. The left controller now shows Bond's suit sleeve with his real watch, and the watch hands keep mission time. It works alongside dual-wielding: when your left hand holds a gun, you see the gun.
• Gadgets in your hand. Remote, proximity and timed mines, the covert modem, the cameras, the bomb case and the GoldenEye key now show in your right hand, held in Bond's fist. Throw them and they leave from your hand.
• Shell casings. Spent casings now fly out of the ejection port in both stereo and screen mode. They had never appeared in this port before.

Improved

• Opening the watch. Raise your wrist and the watch opens straight to its pages, with no arm-raise animation. The pause button still plays the full animation. The watch screen now follows your view, then settles into the virtual screen's usual spot when you look that way.
• HUD messages. Pickup and objective messages now appear on the heads-up panel, in the lower third of your view. The objective messages that used to sit off the top of the lenses now appear in the top third.
• Sniper rifle as a club. When you melee with the sniper rifle, you hold it butt-first and swing it the right way round.
• Weapon animations in stereo. Reload, raise and throw animations now move the gun in the right direction.

Fixed

• Thrown objects (mines, the covert modem, grenades, rockets) spawned too small in stereo and started too close to your head. They now start from your hand at full size.
• No phantom copy of a gadget flies behind you after a throw.
• Pistol casings (PP7 and others) were missing in both modes because of a bug in the original game code.

Install

Same as before. See the 5-step guide in the README.

• Updating from v0.1.0: install GoldenEye-VR-v0.1.1.apk over it with SideQuest. It's signed with the same key, so there's nothing to uninstall.
• New install: follow the guide, then load your ROM with Choose ROM file… in the launcher.

Known issues

• Bullet holes and some wall decals can look cropped at steep viewing angles, in both modes.
• The Dam is the most tested level. Others are playable but rougher.
• Only the USA (NTSC-U) ROM is supported.

Found a bug? Open an issue with:

• the Build line from the launcher (this release: cf4a66d)
• your headset model
• the level
