PokemonStadiumRecomp — SS Anne — v0.4.3-beta

A native PC build of Pokémon Stadium (US v1.0), produced by static
recompilation. You must supply your own legal ROM — none is included.

This supersedes v0.4.2-beta.

What's new since v0.4.2-beta

Crash fixes

• Fixed the mid-battle Pokémon switch-in crash (#9, "Choosing Starmie
  crashes"). Switching a Pokémon in during a battle could load a 3D model
  whose fragment bound to the wrong recompiled variant, sending the geo-layout
  walker off the end of the loaded model into garbage memory. The recompiler
  now binds only a size-compatible model variant and never falls back to an
  unsafe guess. Affected any Pokémon, not just Starmie.
• Fixed the gallery photo "enlarge" crash (#16). Enlarging a photo
  (C-Down) shared the same model/UI fragment subsystem as #9 and is fixed by
  the same change.

Controllers & input

• 8BitDo 64 controller support (#15). Bundled the community SDL controller
  mapping database and added a built-in 8BitDo 64 mapping, so D-Input /
  Bluetooth controllers SDL didn't previously recognize now work. Every
  connected joystick is also logged with its name + GUID to help map any
  controller that still isn't detected. (You can drop an updated
  assets/gamecontrollerdb.txt next to the game without a new build.)
• L button now works (#8). N64 L/R map to the controller bumpers and Z to
  the triggers; L was previously bound to the left-stick click.
• Rebindable controls. Each player card on the launcher now has a gear
  button that opens a Controls screen where you can remap every N64 button and
  the analog stick for the keyboard and for controllers (two bindings allowed
  per input). Click a binding, press the new key/button, and it's saved to
  input.cfg; "Reset to Defaults" restores the original layout. Bindings are
  shared per device type (one keyboard map, one controller map).

Graphics & window

• "Doesn't open at all" startup failures (#11). The Direct3D 12 path is now
  guarded and automatically falls back to Vulkan if D3D12 can't initialize.
  PSR_GRAPHICS_API=vulkan|d3d12|auto lets you force a renderer. See
  GRAPHICS.md.
• Launch directly in fullscreen (#18). Set window_mode=fullscreen (or
  fullscreen=on) in launcher.cfg, or PSR_FULLSCREEN=1. Alt+Enter still
  toggles at runtime.

Engine (shared runtime)

• Transfer Pak GB-Pak status fix so the GB Tower stops rejecting valid
  Game Boy carts.
• More reliable RCP hardware-event delivery (fixes a shared-queue
  lost-wakeup class).

Docs

• README troubleshooting for the antivirus false-positive (#12) and no-audio
  (#6) reports.

Known issues still open

• #10 — graphical glitch backing out of Free Battle team selection.
• #17 — a user report of GB Tower not booting R/B/Y (not reproduced; under
  follow-up).
• #7 — native Linux build (planned).
