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.
- Updated `vi.cpp` to utilize the GX thread for rendering tasks, improving frame pacing and responsiveness.
- Modified `main.cpp` to configure and start the GX thread, ensuring it integrates with the existing rendering workflow.
- Enhanced `openxr_integration.cpp` to register the GX thread with OpenXR for better performance in VR scenarios.
- Refactored `settings_overlay.cpp` to remove unnecessary waits for the frame worker, as the overlay now draws directly into the game thread's ImGui frame.
- Improved error handling and logging in the GX thread to capture exceptions during command execution.
- Created InstallReset.kt to handle the removal of game files, built games, and mod packs while preserving user data.
- Implemented unit tests for InstallReset to ensure correct functionality and file handling.
- Updated RetroRewindPackTest to include new test cases for update and deletion order.
- Enhanced Vulkan interop and OpenXR integration to support new thread scheduling hints for Android.
- Improved error handling and logging for GPU submission failures in Vulkan backend.
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.

fix timeout loop, fixed drift issues, fixed infinite rumble, fixed gamecube controller adapter taking over all ports, require assigning a virtual controller port specifically to the gamecube controller adapter, and block inputs from gamecube controller while settings menu (f10 menu) is open
