Ringfall's side of it:
- The bots: OpenCE's own (bots.c, a local split screen game's) are not
used in VR builds (their lobby hook would take Ringfall's host bots
off, and their bots.count and bots.skill differ); Ringfall's are now
host_bots.c, so that OpenCE's bots.c merges as it changes. Each
platform's bots.count and bots.skill are its own (config_setting_index
takes this platform's of two of a name).
- HDR is never on in VR (d3d8_gl.c); the flat window's present is
OpenCE's, inside the VR port's branch for it.
- The VR frame begins where the events are pumped (sdl_platform.c), as
before, now that exit_after_check is apart.
- The message numbers: OpenCE's aim assist policy (90) before the VR
port's poses (240), which stay last.
- The visibility counters keep the VR port's snapshot ring (both eyes'
counts halved); OpenCE's tone mapping goes before the antialiasing, off
the VR eyes' pass.
- Join codes, the online list and OpenCE's probes all in the signalling
topics; the HUD's PNG helpers both ways; the disc import keeps the
language file.

A busy multiplayer fight fills the Xbox's per-frame lists of what a view
draws: 512 particle runs and 128 dynamic lights. Past them plasma bolts,
charge glows and flashlights stop drawing. The desktop builds now draw
2048 and 512. These lists are rebuilt every frame, outside the game state,
and nothing of them reaches the network. Android's and the web build keep
the Xbox's.
(cherry picked from commit f1abebdd6e89de292569ea466496fa0484476e0e; OpenCE already drew
2048 transparent geometry groups on every build, so only the particle runs
and lights are taken, with OpenCE's guards for the builds that keep the
Xbox's sizes)
248 OpenCE commits (network version 25): touch controls and touch menus for
phones, single-player in-game Settings, opt-in FOV/viewmodel settings, voice
chat and votes to kick, lens flare culling, memory leak fixes (render
targets, gamepads, the Android audio stream), profiling builds, the
HALO_ANDROID split into HALO_ARM64_GUEST / HALO_GLES / HALO_ANDROID.
Conflicts and how they were resolved:
- README.md: ours kept whole. Upstream's README changes (portable build,
profiling builds) went into docs/OPENCE_README.md: upstream's new text
with our header note, links rewritten to ../ and our "made from your own
copy" wording.
- port/android/README.md: both merged; upstream's touch, WSL and save
notes taken, with our application id in every adb path; our VR section,
signing.properties and wording kept; the stale "How it works" list
dropped as upstream dropped it.
- Launcher icons (mipmap-*/ic_launcher_foreground.png, art/android-icon.png):
ours (the Ringfall art). Upstream's helmet monochrome layers,
drawable/ic_launcher_background.xml and its ic_launcher.xml were left out;
our ic_launcher.xml, values/ic_launcher_background.xml and
tools/android_icon.py stay. (port/assets/icon and tools/app_icon.py come
in for the desktop builds' window icon only; do not run app_icon.py, it
would write the helmet into the Android resources.)
- port/android/host/host_main.c: both config helpers kept, and upstream's
emulator write tracking (native_bridge_active); upstream's display width
block dropped in favour of ours (640 in VR) and its display density for
the touch controls moved into our flat (non-VR) branch.
- port/linux/game/menu_functions.c: platform_text_field(typing, password)
from upstream; the VR keyboard launch for text fields kept after it.
- port/linux/game/network_distributed.c: upstream's profile_scope wrappers,
with network_vr_tick and bots_tick kept in their places.
- port/linux/src/dsound_sdl.c: both (our debug.audio_log, upstream's
audio.output_device).
- port/linux/src/port_config.c: our temp-and-rename config write kept,
under upstream's HALO_ARM64_GUEST (it is guest file I/O).
- port/linux/src/sdl_platform.c/.h: upstream's (Android menu pointer from
the touchscreen, Steam keyboard, scoreboard pointer); our quit marker for
the Steam Frame launcher, clipboard_seen and VR frame hooks kept. Our
flat-mouse menu pointer (an emulator aid) is replaced by upstream's touch
pointer, which also drives the menus on the emulator.
- port/linux/src/d3d8_gl.c: halo_ui_pointer_update is upstream's, with the
VR controller ray taking over while VR is active (the touchscreen then
is not the pointer); our persistent-buffer writes kept for stream and
index uploads, now writing upstream's exact length and under HALO_GLES
like the code around them (stream_reserve, index_upload, mirror_refresh
too); multiview uniforms stay under HALO_ANDROID, the counter binding
under HALO_GLES. Visibility counters: ours kept (the snapshot ring with
multiview views, host_gl_counters_snapshot) over upstream's per-frame
glCopyBufferSubData into counter_snapshots: ours reads finished frames
without stalling and counts both eyes' samples once; upstream's
desktop query batches come in unchanged.
- port/linux/src/xinput_sdl.c: both (VR controllers and touch controls).
In VR the touch controls neither show nor act (touch_input_gamepad,
touch_input_controls, touch move/look skipped); rumble goes to the
controllers in VR, to the phone otherwise.
- source/interface/first_person_weapons.c: both (VR scope pass check and
display.viewmodel_visible).
- source/interface/ui_widget.c: upstream's reworked menu targets taken
(ui_mouse_fit_button_targets, merged rows, widened values), which do
what our icon_x0 key picking and the 12-unit value arrows did; our VR
label distance (25) kept, and a VR ray counts as a coarse pointer, so it
gets the taller legend areas and the widened values (not the merged
rows: a row's label still presses A). Our join code and VR options
panels kept; their early return now forgets the frame's targets too.
The on-screen keyboard: upstream's virtual_keyboard_click for taps and
the mouse, ours (hover highlights the key) for the VR ray only.
- source/main/main.c: both (VR phases around upstream's profile scopes).
VR guards for new upstream features:
- view_fov.c: display.fov, display.viewmodel_fov and
display.viewmodel_visible do nothing while VR is active (the headset
gives each eye's frustum; the weapon is in the hand).
- Touch controls: off in VR (xinput_sdl.c), the menus' touch pointer too
(d3d8_gl.c); the overlay stays hidden as the game never reports a scene.
- Lens flare culling (744040c8, b1a71709) uses global_window_parameters'
frustum, which in VR is each eye's (per-eye passes) or the union frustum
of the multiview centre camera: no change needed.
- In-game Settings: VR options still open with Y on the main and pause
menus (checked flat with debug.vr_options).
- The back button change (enableOnBackInvokedCallback=false) keeps the
legacy KEYCODE_BACK path, which targetSdk 35 already had: no change on
Quest or Frame.

The raised limits' and the walk's comments are marked as the port's, with the unverified HAC2 and MCC comparison left out; the walk's says why the index is compared whole, and the once-only log of a frame reaching the limit gets a comment of its own.
At an open vehicle's wheel, a hand that grips near it (where the driver's
drawn hands hold it) takes hold, and the hands turn it about its column:
both by the line between them, one about the wheel's middle. Turned
vr.vehicle_wheel_degrees (90) either way it steers fully; let go, the right
stick steers as before. Holding the wheel, the right grip is no melee.

Upstream's own fixes replace two of ours: reclaiming ART's idle large
object space for the guest's fixed ranges (host_memory.c), and the audio
callback's gathering (host_sdl.c). Its consolidated headers take the VR
declarations (model_animation_definitions.h, render/render.h). The
updaters look at this repository's releases: the original's builds, made
without VR, must never replace this one (they share the package name).

Import only independently reviewed production changes. Preserve canonical physics and virtual-keyboard repairs; keep B3 and all unresolved holds out.
Record exactly four approved canary debits (6987 meaningful bytes), six Halo admissions and two revocations. Keep vendor ioinit/storage work separate. Full build, 8252-row sweep, 1318 tests, park/admission/fake audits and 621-object binding pass within approved debit bounds.
Do not publish donor research dumps or private assets. README and unrelated user research remain untouched. See frontier_publication_reconciliation_20260927.md for complete evidence limits and accounting.
The Xbox game state (0x345000 bytes at 0x80061000) ends exactly where the
map-linked tag cache begins and has 948 bytes free, so a 128-player
session cannot even allocate its player datums. The native builds now
place a 16 MB game state (CPU 0xFC0000, GPU 0x40000) at 0x81A00000, above
the tag cache and below everything the Xbox memory window hands out
top-down, and grow the pools that scale with the number of players:
- objects: 2048 -> 8192 headers, 1 MB -> 8 MB pool; the garbage limits
keep January's proportions (5/10/20 % of the pool, 2.5/5/10 % of the
headers, 75/50/30 active garbage objects per 16 players)
- cluster partition reference lists 2048 -> 8192 (collideable and
noncollideable objects, lights); a full list drops objects out of
rendering, collision and sphere queries
- effects 256 -> 2048, effect locations 512 -> 4096
- particles 1024 -> 8192 (render_particles' visible list, filled without
a bound check, follows), particle systems 64 -> 256, their particles
512 -> 4096
- contrails 256 -> 1024, contrail points 1024 -> 8192
(MAXIMUM_CONTRAIL_POINTS stays the pool size for the same reason)
- lights 896 -> 4096, object looping sounds 1024 -> 4096
- cached object render states and rendered objects 256 -> 1024
- script object-list references 128 -> 1024, objects one explosion can
damage 64 -> 256
The values live in port/linux/include/halo_port_capacity.h, included by
halo_port_limits.h. With 128 player datums the CPU part holds 14,256,908
bytes (2,258,164 free). Saved games and cores grow to 16 MB. Every change
is under HALO_LINUX; the MSVC objects are unchanged.
