An addendum to anyone needing to use PPSSPP but wants to avoid AI commits, it seems like the current stable build 1.20.4 from May 16 *should* be safe. Public commits with Claude as an author started July 24 this year.

I successfully split the player actions off DoAction combined with the enemy actions split, it made DoAction 96% smaller compared to its original! IT'S SO SMOL NOW!

I decided that my VenusRootLoader progress report blog posts will no longer be blog posts, but rather vids on yt Why? Reasons: - Archival isn't needed - Pacing has been picking up making it harder to write long posts - Allows me to demonstrates in more ways for explanation Expect 2 vids soon!

and there it is! 100% semantically equivalent DoAction after splitting the enemy actions Here's the instruction counts: original: 98786 after all patches: 20472 In other words, moving the enemy actions to their own coroutines saved ~79.28% of instructions!

I reached the point where almost everything is working and the things that don't are fixable + ik what I need to do to fix them I think I've crossed the point where I'm wondering if it's viable, it is and the pros outweigh the cons. It's just a matter of tooling and engineering the abstractions

So the split yesterday technically worked, but was half broken. This is the funniest example of this, but there were others: www.twitch.tv/videos/28783...

THIS IS SO FUCKED UP THE FACT I GOT THIS FAR AT THE IL LEVEL AND IT HALF WORKS AT RUNTIME IS INSANE!!! There's a lot of breakage (such as zasp infinite taunting you and carmina infinite sleeping you), but others just worked tm like asto DO YOU REALISE HOW INSANE THIS IS? AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

aldelaro5 @aldelaro5.bsky.social · 17/09/2026

I can't recall working on something as exciting as splitting coroutines like DoAction at the IL level The last time I was this excited to work on something was DME....like ~10 years ago lol it's so interesting!

aldelaro5 @aldelaro5.bsky.social · 15/09/2026

IT'S FUCKING HAPPENING, I JUST EXTRACTED A SUB COROUTINE FROM THE ZOMBIANT ACTION AT THE IL LEVEL AND IT JUST WORKED TM AT RUNTIME!!! case MainManager.Enemies.CordycepsAnt: yield return NewState(entity, actionid); break; ATTACKED NORMALLY WITH THE CORRECT YIELD TIMES AND EVERYTHING

aldelaro5 @aldelaro5.bsky.social · 12/09/2026

Ok, no promise yet... ...but I believe I have just figured out how to get rid of the infamous DoAction problem we been having with Bug Fables enemy modding because I believe it is now VERY possible to split it More in probably a couple weeks!

Life update: I got fired from my job, in 6 weeks, I will be jobless. I am financially very stable though so there's no urgency to apply right away, my plan is to do it at the start of 2027. I been due for a break of VRL so: - September: not much to happen - October onward: EXPECT A LOT VERY FAST!

I've been working on this for over a year: I'm remaking all of Ocarina of Time's prerenders in 3D, trying to match the N64 style rather than the 3DS one. The provisional name is OoT unJPEG. It will be distributed as both a romhack that runs on real N64 hardware and a mod for Zelda 64 Recompiled.

Twitch isn't making Gen AI training *opt-in* because no one would voluntarily choose to opt in. Instead, they are offering an opt-out option.

note that even if you opt your channel out, your chat messages will still be used to train twitch/amazon's generative AI models if you chat in someone's stream who hasn't opted out. my advice is to be annoying about asking. any streamer who's opted out will be glad to tell you so.

What channel content (clips, chat, metadata, etc.) is eligible to be used for generative AI training?

Your stream and the stream's chat, your VODs, your Clips, Highlights, and any text or images on your Channel may be used. If you chat on someone else's stream, their opt-out preferences govern if that chat can be used for training.

A lot of the stuff in here is possible to easily do thanks to VRL right now! It will just get better from there, only a couple days ago you could programmatically load a prefab as map from a bundle. The rest (changing the lz, adding NPC with interactions, etc..) have been doable since a month ago!
