not an authored mission, just some squads hanging out for performance testing. light ordering bug is back, should be easy to fix. no red clouds on nvidia/windows. feels buttery smooth.

not a lot of functional difference *yet*

There's not, in my mind, a huge amount of functional difference between shadps4 and the "native port". But I do like that I had a blue bug, and now I have a red bug. Gotta catch em all.

proof of concept - functional stereo vision in shadps4. when I can stomach another big optimization push, I'll implement VR.

the character action for mantling existed, but the trigger did not. added the trigger. needs a little more tuning and an animation. please disregard the Error Fog and note the smooth smooth 60fps as shadPS4 is now solved-ish.

native mouse, arbitrary fov, 60fps (in some areas, 40-60 in others.) getting past 60fps anywhere, area depending, should now be doable with further optimization.

D1 with native mouse, no aim assist. persistent 95 fov with proper scope zoom. big performance push to get 60+fps tomorrow, which will make native mouse much less jank. maybe I should figure out why the scope has no crosshair now 😂

when I thought this was going to be a much harder project, I wanted to go to the patch that had special ammo spawns in pvp that were fun. now I know enough about the game that I think I can just patch that. now 1.29 is vestigial and my plan is to make more or less any patch work, starting with 1.33

field of view testing - set to 95º in d1 on shadps4

also, not playing against a real server, if that wasn't clear

This is happening on shadPS4. This is not being piped over from a console.

It means I’m not releasing today as planned. But when I do release, hopefully this weekend, I want some pve to work. We will see.

Slight distraction: what do you mean the entirety of the d1 pve experience is on disc? I was so sure it wasn't, I never even looked. I didn't know. I was getting more and more sure that pvp would be tough, and pve would be months of community rebuild. I don't think this is going to take months.

Key notes, not complete known issues: 1- Tested against 1.29, not "current" 1.33 2- Multiplayer not tested (shadNET covers, my d1 service logic partially not ready) 3- No enemies/AI/scripted events *yet* 4- Patrols work, story missions may be busted 5- Matchmade queues don't ever send you anywhere.

Alright, that's fixed. Fr going to push to gitlab after work. Things keep getting easier the more I understand it, the better the decomp is, and the better the tools are for it. Cannot wait to see where the community takes this.

I did not make my deadline for pushing an updated version. I am still fighting with covering everything director -> ingame for pve, but that will pay off as part of adding more pve features. Enjoy a little more gameplay, with fully working weapons.

Shoot for the moon. D1P prealpha 2 drops tonight or tomorrow now. Prealpha means this is *not* ready for general public. This branch tested only on Linux+AMD. Windows builds soon. Expect update cadence to increase now that most of the annoying pieces are solved.

aknumbers @aknumbers.bsky.social · 15/08/2026
Folks are reworking the scripting to work in PowerShell (ew, my fault for not putting a halt on shipping *everything* inside rust from pre-alpha 1) The necessary shadPS4 patches, so far, have been GPU, GPU driver, and platform independent - somewhat as expected. Haven't spun up on Mac *yet*.

The scope of this next update is so massive that I'm tabling "patch agnostic" behavior and "platform agnostic" support. I don't want to half-ass either. Haven't developed for Windows in years, my microVM of choice does not support it. The real answer is to just run the server in a Linux VM for now.

Trying to get an update out today with the full "boot -> orbit -> director -> ingame with a fully functional character" This is a "just work from the ROM" project. Have had to build tools, fix our existing ones, keep learning systems. A couple testers have Windows instances almost to parity.

pre-alpha 2, soon: shadPS4 graphical fixes, massive server coverage improvements, new db structure to prep for multiuser+scaled testing. fixed login flow. armor shows on character. visible menu weapon/subclass/armor customization. investigating director population, fixing orbit->activity flow.
