Adds the modernQuest and quest1 headset flavours (Kryo CPU target, direct-VR
library entry on Quest 1), records the CPU target in the game kit and checks
it wherever a kit or game package is used, and gates the Quest 1 EFB-copy and
pipeline-scheduling workarounds on the monterey device.
Resolved docs/quest-port.md by keeping both sides: the foveated rendering
section and the Quest 1 renderer compatibility section, and both Build-Quest.ps1
command lines.

- Added SetRenderScale method to both D3D12 and Vulkan backends to adjust the render scale dynamically.
- Updated eye size calculations to reflect the new render scale in both backends.
- Implemented ResizeWritablePair method to handle resizing of swapchains based on the requested eye sizes.
- Modified BeginFrame methods to ensure swapchains are resized appropriately before rendering.
- Enhanced error handling to maintain current eye sizes when the requested sizes cannot be allocated.
- Added tests to validate render scale functionality, ensuring correct behavior when scaling up and down, including handling of refused sizes.
- New [vr] hand_tracking (default off, Quest only for now): the Quest launcher's Settings > VR and
the headset panel's VR tab, under hand steering. Two XR_EXT_hand_tracking trackers are located
every XR frame: with the controllers held the Quest builds the joints from their touch sensors
(XR_EXT_hand_tracking_data_source's controller source), once they are put down from its
cameras. The trackers exist only while the option and hand steering are on and also serve the
runtime hand mesh; the extensions (plus XR_FB_hand_tracking_aim) are asked for when either is
on at launch.
- Aurora skins the runtime mesh with the joints themselves (tracked pose times inverse bind pose,
no curl, no grip); runtimes with joints but no mesh get a skeleton; non-finite joints put only
that hand back on its grip curl. AuroraCockpitHand carries the 26 seated-frame joints and radii.
- The manifest declares horizonos.permission.HAND_TRACKING (and the deprecated
com.oculus.permission.HAND_TRACKING), both normal permissions with no prompt on a Quest 3, and
oculus.software.handtracking as optional; without it Horizon OS keeps the app controllers-only.
Bare hands then drive khr/simple_controller, so on Android a hand whose squeeze action is
inactive and select active is treated as bare: with the option off it presses nothing but the
menu gesture, is not drawn and feeds no Wii Remote motion.
- Interaction-profile changes and tracker sources are logged. The pure rules (grasp from finger
flexion, bare latch, pinch gate, bare-hand buttons, flick) live in the OpenXR-free
vr/openxr_hand_tracking.h with mkw_vr_hand_tracking_tests; the driving and flick parts are
wired in the next commits. Docs: OPENXR.md, docs/quest-port.md, README.

- The pacing thread aims each immersive window eye through the window itself (AimEyesThroughWindow):
it keeps its position but looks square-on at the window's plane through an off-axis frustum just
around it, so the eye image is the window, at the display's pixel density (about 680x380 per eye
at render_scale 0.8 instead of 1344x1408), with a two-pixel border the mask leaves transparent.
The frame's views carry that pose and field of view to the projection layer.
- vulkan_interop.cpp copies an eye smaller than its AHardwareBuffer into the buffer's corner, and
the Quest layer's imageRect is the rendered part of the swapchain image.
- These eyes are not foveated: their field of view follows the head, which would rebuild the
density map every frame.
- Quest only (kWindowShapedEyesSupported); the PC backends copy whole eyes and keep masking them.
debug.wiicompiled.window_eyes 0 renders them whole and masked again for A/B timing.
- Quest 3, paused Retro Rewind race, render_scale 1.0: Immersive window runs the GPU at level 1
(456 MHz, app GPU 11.0 ms, eyes 8.4 ms) where Immersive needs level 3 (599-640 MHz, 13.4 ms,
10.3 ms), about 42% fewer GPU cycles. No edge artifacts, image as sharp. Docs: OPENXR.md.

- Introduced a new configuration option for immersive window mode in runtime_config.h.
- Updated the parsing and setting functions to handle the immersive window state.
- Modified the OpenXR backend to support rendering with the immersive window, blending the race view with the surrounding environment.
- Enhanced the settings overlay to allow users to select between immersive, immersive window, and flat screen race views.
- Implemented GPU rendering logic for the immersive window mask, ensuring correct visual output in various rendering paths.
- Added tests to validate the immersive window functionality and its interaction with existing race view settings.
- Eyes render under a VK_EXT_fragment_density_map: full rate around each eye's forward direction,
2x2 then 4x4 pixel blocks towards the edges ([vr] foveation = off|low|medium|high, default off).
XR_FB_foveation cannot help here: the runtime's maps only shape passes drawing into its
swapchain, and the eyes reach it through a copy.
- aurora-main/patches/dawn/aurora_fdm.inc: Dawn enables the extension only on request and for
dynamic rendering, flags every render pipeline, and chains an immutable RG8 map into any pass
whose first color attachment is a view bound to one (ABI: include/aurora/dawn_fdm_abi.h).
- android/Build-QuestDawn.ps1 builds the pinned Dawn revision with those patches for arm64
(dawn-build CI flags, protobuf off) into a cached package; Build-Quest.ps1 links it
(-StockDawn opts out) and AuroraDawnProvider.cmake enables the ABI from its manifest.
- lib/gfx/foveation.hpp generates the maps (32 px per texel, densities 255/127/63); an eye is
foveated only when single_pass_eyes draws it in one render pass. Menus never are.
- Live level from the headset panel's VR tab and the launcher; the launch decides whether the
device has maps. debug.wiicompiled.foveation and debug.wiicompiled.fdm for A/B.
- Tests: Foveation cases in gx_fifo_tests, mkw_vr_config_tests. Docs: OPENXR.md, quest-port.md.

- Added eye_pass_plan.hpp: an eye keeps drawing in the render pass it has open across the frame's
GX copies (only the mono render performs them), skips passes a later clear of the whole color and
depth erases, and splits only for a clear of color alone or depth alone.
- render_stereo_eye follows that plan; the cockpit fallback is drawn inside the last pass instead of
a render pass of its own that loaded the eye back.
- The stencil is now cleared where the eye actually starts, so a cockpit mask drawn in an erased pass
can no longer punch holes in the HUD.
- [vr] single_pass_eyes (default on, live from F10) and debug.wiicompiled.eye_passes 0/1 on the Quest
switch back to one render pass per recorded pass for A/B timing.
- Each new plan shape is logged once ("Eye replay plan: ...").
- Tests: EyePassPlan cases in gx_fifo_tests; stereo_multiplayer_smoke and stereo_frame_worker_smoke
pass on D3D12.

OpenXR's grip +X is normal to the palm but points away from it on the left hand
and into it on the right, which is exactly what makes both grips carry the same
orientation when the hands hold a wheel symmetrically. The fingers therefore run
along -Y on both hands, and it is the geometry across the palm that mirrors.
Building the right hand's fingers on +Y instead left them pointing at the player
while the real hand faced forward.

The animated copy is registered for the vehicle's whole position array, and a
race frame has 228 primitives that bind it. Suppressing draw merging for all of
them turned the kart's display list back into hundreds of separate draw calls,
each recorded once and replayed in the mono pass and both eyes: on a Quest 3 the
app frame went from 15.7 ms to 21.7 ms with the GPU pinned at 97 %, which past
the 72 Hz deadline reads as 56 FPS against 42.
Merging is unsafe only between draws that resolved the array differently, since
the merged whole renders through the binding of the draw it folds into. So
resolve the replacement once per draw, before the merge test, and merge into a
draw that reached the same decision. Draws of an opponent sharing the asset
merge with each other again too, and with no set registered the test is exactly
what it was before the feature.
Measured at the same place on a Quest 3: 60 FPS against 42, the app frame back
to 13.9 ms, 564 draw calls a frame with 11808 primitives merged away.

The Android frame-rate line already says where the wall clock went; what it
could not say is how many draw commands the recorded frame holds, which is what
the mono pass and both eye replays each pay for. An overlay that stops draws
merging shows up here long before it shows up as a frame rate.

The Quest offers XR_FB_hand_tracking_mesh without the app declaring hand
tracking, so a Quest 3 draws the runtime's own hand mesh rather than the
procedural gloves, and its fingers bent backwards on grip: the mesh's
joints point -Z towards the fingertip and +Y out of the back of the hand,
so flexion is negative about the joint's own X, on both hands. Fix and
test by the repository owner; OPENXR.md said the Quest always drew the
gloves, which was wrong.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
On a Quest 3 the gloves' fingers pointed up out of the fist and bent out
of the back of the hand as the grip closed: they were built along the
grip's -Z, which runs up the tube the curled fingers form towards the
thumb, and curled towards -Y, which is backwards on the right hand.
The fingers now run along Y, forwards out of the palm (+Y on the right
hand, -Y on the left, the frame being right-handed), and close towards
+X, the palm's outward normal, with the thumb on the -Z side of both
hands. A test pins the reach, the closing direction and that nothing
bends out of the back of the hand.

The panel was drawn into the eye images, so below a 1.00x OpenXR
resolution its 1440x1080 canvas was minified into a small eye region and
the text became hard to read. It is now submitted as a quad layer of its
own over the scene's projection or menu quad, which the compositor samples
directly at any render scale.
Each backend (D3D12, Windows Vulkan, Quest) makes the panel's swapchain
pair (plus two shared buffers on the Quest) the first time the panel
opens. While it is open, the frame hands Aurora one more stereo target
after the eyes, which the bridge fills with the panel texture or a
transparent image. The panel image follows the eyes' displayed/retained
pairing, so a cancelled frame never shows an unwritten panel. The quad
hangs where the pointer's hits are tested. Aurora leaves the panel out of
the eyes in layer mode, and a backend that cannot make the layer falls
back to drawing it into the eyes.
On the Quest, debug.wiicompiled.panel_layer 0 selects the old path at
run time. Measured there at a race start (render_scale 0.8), the layer
costs nothing while the panel is closed; while it is open, app GPU time is
10.5 ms against 9.7 ms drawn into the eyes, with unchanged frame rates.
The replay tests cover lazy creation, cancelled frames, closed and
unplaced panels, and render-first pacing on D3D12 and Windows Vulkan.

Found on a Quest 3 through Virtual Desktop (VirtualDesktopXR, Vulkan):
the race camera's view matched the scene camera exactly and the kart's
own wheel animated (228 draws a frame took the copy), but during the
race's opening pan no draw took it, the 30-frame fallback latched the VR
wheel for that vehicle, and it stayed until the scene changed.
The fallback now heals: copies keep being published, the VR wheel stands
in only while draws are not taking them, and the vehicle's own wheel
returns as soon as they are. Both switches are logged, a few per race.
With first_person_rotation "yaw_pitch" or "full" the wheel copy and the
hands' wheel geometry now ride in the view's own frame (the kart's
orientation around the seat) instead of the level seat, so the wheel no
longer tilts against the view on slopes.
Aurora logs, after about half a second, five seconds and a minute of
copies, how many draws bound a copied array (inside and outside its
window), how many matched, and the closest position matrix against the
expected one, so a mismatch says whether the array or the matrix differs.
first_person_seat = "cockpit" (the new default) places the head at the
driver's own eyes, measured once from the character's head bone while the
kart drives straight and undamaged, kept behind the steering wheel, at a
life-size scale (cockpit_units_per_meter, grown with the character's
height and the player's size). "yaw" takes the kart's driving direction
from a level seat frame that follows the simulation's position and
direction, so damage spins and tricks do not turn the seat.
first_person_seat = "custom" keeps the previous offset placement.
At the race draw boundary the vehicle's steering wheel disc (karts) or
handle part (bikes, re-seated level while the bike banks) is decoded from
its MDL0, turned on a copy, and posted to the GX thread for Aurora to
substitute into the player's own draws; the copies are dropped after the
frame's draws. The anchor carries the wheel or handlebar geometry in the
seated frame and the frame's exact scale, which reaches the policy and
aurora_set_stereo_scene_anchor_scaled. If no draw takes the copies for 30
frames the vehicle falls back to the VR wheel, and the log says so.
The wheel copy is matched against RaceCamera::GetViewMtx with no dolly
offset, since the scene camera is only set once the draws run; the log
reports its distance from the scene camera once a second.
Nothing turns the wheel yet: the angle comes from the XR side's driving
snapshot, which the next change publishes.
Guest offsets ported from heurazy's mario-kart-wii-VR-port, each
re-checked against the generated leaf getters and the decompilation.
A stereo packet can now carry an AuroraCockpit: tracked hands and, when the
vehicle's own wheel cannot be animated, a synthetic steering wheel or
handlebar, all in metres in the seated frame. Each eye draws it inside the
scene's pass just before the first virtual-screen draw, depth-tested with
the world's own depth mapping (captured from a full-view world draw), so
the kart and track occlude the hands and the 2D layer cannot hide them.
Hands use a runtime-provided hand mesh when one is supplied and a
procedural glove otherwise.
aurora_set_stereo_scene_anchor_scaled lets the sealed frame own its world
scale: each eye's head translation is rescaled from the packet's scale to
the frame's. A non-finite cockpit is dropped with one warning; the frame
still renders.
Ported from heurazy's mario-kart-wii-VR-port (GPL-3.0-or-later).
The VR first-person camera will animate the local vehicle's steering wheel
by handing Aurora a rotated copy of one of the vehicle's position arrays.
A draw picks up the copy only when it binds that exact array with the local
vehicle's position matrix (per-position ownership for indexed-matrix
draws), so opponents sharing the asset keep the original vertices. The copy
takes the same padded upload path as the original and never touches the
shared array cache.
Ported from heurazy's mario-kart-wii-VR-port (GPL-3.0-or-later).
- Introduced a new GX thread to handle the rendering pipeline, allowing the game thread to post commands without blocking.
- Added `gx_thread.h` and `gx_thread.cpp` to manage the command ring buffer and thread synchronization.

Brings in the keyboard/mouse rebinding overhaul (#162), the Kamek
skip-return hook fixes (#182, #218), the exit button and controller LED
fix (#221), the autohide-cursor and mute hotkey fix (#211), the Linux
--sysroot plumbing (#224) and the switch to the theofficialgman
dawn-build fork (#215).
Conflicts resolved to keep the VR integration intact:
- settings_overlay.cpp/.h: kept both new declarations. The controller
rebinding UI takes upstream's click-to-rebind widgets wholesale - our
only edit there was wrapping the combo width in Scaled(), and
upstream's bindingWidth is already font-relative, so the headset
panel still scales. Kept our DrawResolutionMenu() extraction (the VR
panel reuses it) while adopting upstream's DrawExitPrompt() and its
new DrawTopBar() prologue; kept our Diagnostics menu alongside
upstream's exit-button width math. HandleEvents merges both keyboard
paths, with the VR recenter hotkey now guarded by !g_rebind.active so
it cannot fire while a binding is being captured.
- AuroraDawnProvider.cmake: dropped our now-dead Android hash block.
Upstream restructured the pins into an if/elseif chain that already
covers android/aarch64, with the digest for the new dawn-build fork;
our leftover block was unreachable and carried the old encounter
digest.
- Version plumbing (Build-Installer.ps1, Setup.Windows Program.cs and
csproj): kept this fork's own line, which is 0.2.39 and centralised in
Launcher/Directory.Build.props, rather than regressing to upstream's
hardcoded 0.2.32.
Verified: translator 654/654; runtime ctest 14/14 including every VR
test; WiiCompiled and RetroRewind link; aurora gx_fifo_tests 262/263,
the one failure being the TevRegisterLiveness case already documented as
pre-existing on this branch.

Brings in patchzyy/Wiicompiled main: os_sleep parked-thread fix (#195),
HTTPS Retro WFC payload (#198), macOS build guide (#177), and the
reverse-Z depth fix (#134).
Conflicts were in aurora-main/lib/gfx/common.cpp and lib/gx/shader.cpp,
both from #134, which lands squarely on the VR stereo replay path.
#134 makes UseReversedZ genuinely reversed: the near/far correction now
applies exactly once, inside effective_projection(), instead of being
applied there AND per-vertex in the shader (the double application had
been cancelling out, so "reversed" Z silently behaved like forward Z).
Three pieces of the VR path were built against that old behaviour and
would have broken silently, so they are adapted here:
- shader.cpp exact-screen-depth parked the virtual screen at -0.5*w
specifically so the shader's following negation would land it at
+0.5*w. With that negation gone it now writes +0.5*w directly; keeping
the minus sign would park the screen at NDC -0.5, outside the clip
volume, discarding every 2D/HUD draw.
- stereo_replay.hpp backend_ndc_depth_row re-applied the correction to
the projection it was handed. That projection is effective_projection()
output, which now already carries it, so the function is a pass-through
of the Z row and no longer depends on the reversed-Z setting; the dead
bool parameter is dropped. Re-applying it would invert the virtual
screen's depth ordering, so 2D layers meant to sit on top would lose
the depth test to the ones behind them.
- shader_info.cpp stages the host depth window for that exact-depth path.
It now uses the same reversed-Z remap as upstream's new SetViewport
code, since frag_depth is written directly and has to reproduce the
window the fixed viewport transform would have applied. Restricted
depth windows (how the game forces an element in front of everything)
are exactly the 2D draws the virtual screen carries.
The SetViewport resolution keeps upstream's remap but retains the
ordering/clamp guard our version had: for any ordered guest range the
result is identical to upstream, and it avoids handing WebGPU
minDepth > maxDepth for the swapped pair MKW is known to emit. The VR eye
replay reuses these recorded values, so the guard covers that path too.
Test updates:
- stereo_replay_test now asserts the composed Z row against the staged
projection's own Z row rather than against the helper's output, so it
actually catches a re-introduced double correction (verified: it fails
when the old negation is put back; the previous self-consistent form
passed).
- gx_fifo_test's clearDepthValue expectation followed #134's deliberate
clear_depth_value() inversion, expressed through UseReversedZ rather
than hardcoded. Upstream changed the behaviour without updating this
test, so it fails on upstream/main as-is.
Verified: aurora suite 247 passed with the same 2 failures that already
fail on the pre-merge branch (IndexedPaletteHistoryKeepsAbsoluteVertexSlots,
PacksOneUniformWhenBothHalvesNeedInitialValue - both pre-existing, unrelated
to depth); shader.cpp and common.cpp compile clean; translator suite 577
passed. Not yet validated on-device in VR.
