GoldenEye VR v0.4.10

Smoother movement along walls and curbs, fewer render stalls, shared co-op
mission gadgets and a fix for a Bunker 2 crash.

Bring your own game. This APK contains no GoldenEye or Perfect Dark game
data. You need a legally obtained ROM of the USA GoldenEye 007 cartridge you
own. Installing over an earlier release keeps your ROM and settings.

Smoother movement at walls and curbs

• Wall contact. Touching a wall or curb no longer resets movement
  smoothing. The collision correction applies immediately, and the camera no
  longer bounces when you push into geometry.
• Rounded curbs. Sliding along curbs (such as Dam's start) no longer
  sticks: a rejected slide is retried with 0.1 mm of clearance, still subject
  to the full collision test.
• Interruptions. Movement smoothing recovers cleanly after a short session
  or refresh-rate interruption.
• 120 Hz timing. Nanosecond rounding could select a 25 ms smoothing delay
  at 120 Hz; the intended 16.7 ms delay now holds.

Fewer render stalls

• Ammo panel. Its crop no longer reads pixels back synchronously, which
  cost 5–6 ms on hitch frames. It now uses fenced asynchronous transfers.
• Fewer draw calls. Room boundaries no longer split ordinary geometry into
  separate draw calls, and batches hold more triangles. That is about 8% fewer
  draw calls in Dam.
• Vertex buffer. If a GPU fence ever times out or fails, the vertex buffer
  now waits for the GPU instead of overwriting data it may still be reading.
• Measured on Quest 3 (Dam). 90 Hz holds its frame budget. At 120 Hz,
  heavy views (wide vistas, turning) can still exceed it on game-tick frames.
  Draw-call count drives this, not the GPU or the HD texture pack. Full
  report: VR render stalls.

Co-op mission gadgets, tank and mines — PR #131

• Shared mission gadgets. The Facility door decoder, data thief, bomb
  defuser, watch magnets, the DAT tape and the other shared gadgets now go to
  every player in co-op (#128, #129). Guns stay with whoever picked them up;
  keys and documents stay with the player who uses the keyed door.
• Gadget use by any player. Mission scripts run as the nearest living
  player, so a client standing with Dr Doak is the one the script sees, and a
  client can open a door with a gadget.
• Tank. On Runway and Streets the tank stays solid for the player riding
  it while teammates move. Leaving the deck makes the hull solid again.
• Mines. A held mine stays out of the world and keeps the solo fuse.
  Surface 2's helicopter objective no longer fails when a teammate's remote
  mine settles (#130).

Crash fix — PR #127

• Characters keep a hit list after the cartridge's 600-entry pool is used up.
  Firing on solo Bunker 2 with many retained bodies (report ee07735d) crashed
  when a living character had no list.

For developers

• An opt-in profiler records nested CPU timings, GPU eye passes and XR runtime
  performance counters into bounded traces. It is off in normal play.
• The new benchmark Gradle build type and the tools/perf/ scripts run and
  analyze unattended Quest benchmarks. That build type is never shipped.

Validation

• The user tested the release build on Quest at 120 Hz with the HD pack on and
  reported it smooth. The user also tested the combined build with co-op.
• Unattended Quest 3 runs measured 120 and 90 Hz baselines, a paired draw-call
  comparison, HD pack on vs off, and the combined build.
• All native regression suites passed, as did 20 Android unit tests and
  release, debug and benchmark builds. Tests were not rerun for the version
  bump itself.

Installation

Use Update in the headset launcher when v0.4.10 appears, or install
GoldenEye-VR-v0.4.10.apk over your current version with SideQuest or ADB. It
uses the existing release signing key. See the
install guide.
