NotRexed/Hookshot v2.0.4

v2.0.4: dark Link and lighting from v2.0.3 fixed

on GitHub

Download HookshotBuilder.exe and run it, or press Update in the launcher (hookshot.exe in your game folder). Linux: the AppImage below.

A hotfix for v2.0.3. The update is quick (the game's code is kept); the shaders are prepared again.

Fixed

• Link and other characters drawn dark or black, wrong lighting, lower fps (v2.0.3). The new buffer-pointer analysis in the shader translator took buffers the game's lighting reads; it is off again (the v2.0.2 behaviour). This also takes back the extra plants it drew; that work continues.
• Still in from v2.0.3: controllers and "Failed loading SDL3 library", the 4GB/6GB preset at 5 fps, shaders stuck at 99%, faster replay.
• AMD and Intel: RX_VK_CHECKPOINTS=1 now names the draw a GPU crash happened in (#734). Linux builder: readable on 1440p/4K (#731).

If you still see "Failed loading SDL3 library" on v2.0.4, please send hookshot_log.txt.
