Steadier X-ray and thermal reticles while walking, a scan lock that no longer drops when a scan finishes, and better crash logging on Android.
You need your own disc image: Metroid Prime USA (GM8E01, revisions 1.00, 1.01 and 1.02) or the experimental PAL release (GM8P01). No disc image or game assets are included.
What changed
Fixes
- With "Separate menu buttons" on, a held L lock-on no longer drops when the scan text appears at the end of a scan (#103).
- With the frame limit off, the X-ray and thermal reticles no longer pulse in size when walking forward or back (#97).
Logging
- On Android 11 and later, the log now begins with how the previous run ended (killed for low memory, native crash, not responding, and so on) and how much memory it used. A crash that leaves no crash report, such as a low-memory kill, now leaves a trace in the next log.
- The log records the game's memory, the system's free memory and the GPU texture totals every 30 s, and sooner when they change sharply. On Android it also records the system's low-memory warnings.
