iChris4 21b8d209dd Add the VR cockpit overlay to Aurora's eye replay
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.

Logo

Aurora is a source-level GameCube & Wii compatibility layer intended for use with game decompilation projects.

Originally developed for use in Metaforce, a Metroid Prime reverse engineering project. It now powers several completed source ports, including Dusklight.

Features

  • Application layer using SDL3
    • Runs on Windows, Linux, macOS, iOS, tvOS, Android
  • GX compatibility layer
    • Graphics API support: D3D12, Vulkan, Metal
    • Highly accurate and performant GX implementation
    • Robust pipeline cache system with "transferable" cache support for releases
    • Dolphin-compatible texture pack support
    • Widescreen & resolution scaling support
    • Custom APIs for offscreen rendering
  • PAD compatibility layer
    • Utilizes SDL_Gamepad for wide controller support, including GameCube controller adapters
    • Automatically saves and loads controller bindings and port mappings
    • Gyro & mouse support
  • DVD compatibility layer
    • Utilizes nod to support all GameCube/Wii disc image types, including RVZ
  • CARD compatibility layer
    • Full compatibility with Dolphin .gci and .raw for game saves
  • Dear ImGui built-in for simple debug UIs

Graphics

The GX compatibility layer is built on top of WebGPU, a cross-platform graphics API abstraction layer. WebGPU allows targeting all major platforms simultaneously with minimal overhead. The WebGPU implementation used is Chromium's Dawn.
