fill_quad composites an untextured primitive as a solid rectangle of the
keyframes fade colour, pivot x 2 in size, placed and scaled exactly as a sprite
is. Behind ComposeOptions::include_primitives and screen render --primitives.
On the title screen, whose paint order is ground truth, it is measurably right:
mean luminance 76.30 -> 63.72 against the captures 64.58, i.e. from +18% to
-1.3%, and mean absolute difference 16.07 -> 13.08. The background was ~40% too
bright; pteff02.prm, a 25% black dim, was what was missing. The wordmark is not
dimmed by it because the measured order paints that quad at slot 4, beneath the
logo. Edge correlation moves 0.9538 -> 0.9480, which is not informative here: a
uniform dim scales gradients uniformly so a normalised edge score barely sees it.
OFF BY DEFAULT, and that is the finding. A primitive has no T8aD header, so no
layer key, and derived_paint_order sorts the keyless to the end. GP_DIALOGs
pzeff00.prm is a single keyframe of opaque black at full screen; painted last it
wipes the build. Of the 125 builds that draw a visible primitive, 36 come out
>99% one colour with the derived order.
No constant default works, because the two screens read off the running game
disagree: the splash paints its primitive FIRST (the black backdrop) while the
title paints one at slot 4 and another LAST (the fade-out). Declaration order
fails the title too. A disc test measures the damage rather than asserting the
feature works, so the number moves when the ordering is solved.
Also records a false alarm worth keeping: a first pass reported 36 GP_DIALOG
builds at "100% black", which was a crude near-black pixel threshold and not a
black screen - those dialogs are dimmed 50% and perfectly legible. The genuinely
wiped builds are a different set.
The developer-logo splash declares its sprites directly and has no .rat layout
child, so is_build rejected it and no screen command could render it — despite
it being one of only two screens whose paint order has been read off the running
game, and the one where the layer key explains the whole permutation.
Adds ui_layout::is_composable (a declaration table plus at least one element
resolving to a T8aD the bundle carries) and an opt-in --all on screen
list/info/render. Measured on the disc: 2859 RATC bundles, 965 pass is_build,
2751 pass is_composable, and 0 pass is_build without passing it — a strict
superset. It is opt-in because the 1786 extra bundles are mostly two-element
fragments (a button and its glow), and because widening the default would
renumber --build for every pak, invalidating the build indices the corpus's
notes cite by number.
The splash now renders 6/7 elements, painting its glows first in the order
measured off the game; a disc test pins that order.
The title screen needs an order that puts element 13 (`ptbase2.t32`, the
full-screen background) behind elements 0-5 (the wordmarks) — the capture shows
the wordmarks on top, so the declaration table is not it. Two other orderings
the bundle carries were the cheap candidates, and both are now dead:
* the **placement region** stores a keyframe group per element with an explicit
element index, so it could be a second ordering. It is not — it equals the
declaration order on every build on the disc. `UiBuild::placement_order`
exposes it and `placement_region_order_is_never_a_second_ordering` pins it, so
the refutation stays checkable instead of remembered.
* the **RATC child order** is the declaration order with the `.prm` elements
absent — strictly less information, and no place to put the background other
than where the table already puts it.
`screen info --geometry` prints both, plus each element's decoded sprite size
beside `pivot*2` and every keyframe's scale/position/time — the numbers a
placement hypothesis has to be tested against, and how the pivot/scale rule in
the previous commit was found.
`title_background_is_full_screen` pins that rule against the disc rather than a
synthetic sprite. `scaled_elements_are_a_small_and_mostly_undiscriminating_minority`
reports the scope honestly: 865 of 5 130 resting placements are scaled at all,
and only 213 of those could tell "about the pivot" from "about the sprite
centre" — which the capture did *not* settle, because `ptbase2`'s pivot is its
centre. It also counts how far `pivot*2` is from the decoded size disc-wide
(2 521 agree, 1 884 are off by more than 16 px), which demotes the "pivot is
exactly half the texture" result to a property of the tutorial bundle.
The compositor read a keyframe as `top-left = (X,Y)`, `size = decoded · scale`
and ignored the declared pivot. That is right at 100 %, which is every element
the format was ever checked against — the pause menu, the ARSENAL chip ruler —
and wrong for every element that is scaled.
Measured against a framebuffer capture of Canary on the title screen.
`GP_TITLE.pak` build 7 element 13 is `ptbase2.t32`: 640x360, pivot (320,180),
one keyframe at (320,180) with scale 200 %. From the corner that is a 1280x720
rect at 320..1600 x 180..900 — a quarter-screen slab with the top-left quadrant
bare. Anchored at the pivot it is (0,0)..(1280,720), and the capture shows the
background art reaching all four edges. Normalised cross-correlation of the
composite against the capture, searched over +-40 px, peaks at (0,0): 0.90 on
the planet limb, 0.72 on the lower-left ship.
`ptcopyright.t32` calibrates the other half: unscaled, 694x20 at (293,655), and
the capture's glyph run is x 295..986 / y 700..718 once the 45 px of window
chrome is taken off. So the keyframe really is the top-left at 1:1.
Disc-wide this moves 865 of 5 130 resting placements. The pause menu's own
`pgpeff01` glow stops hanging off the menu frame to the bottom-right and
centres on it.
`ComposeOptions::backdrop` comes with it: the default dim slate stands in for
the PRMD dim-quad behind an in-mission screen, but comparing against a
framebuffer needs the black the game actually composites over, so
`screen render --black` can ask for it.
Two independent lines landed a `.rat` reading and neither was the whole
picture, so this merges them into one module and fixes what the merge exposed.
ui_layout — the screen is the BUNDLE, not the set of .rat records
------------------------------------------------------------------
`feat/ui-layout-preview` parsed `.rat` records; the autopilot stack documented
the RATC header and probed it in `examples/screen_layout.rs` but never landed a
library module. The `.rat`-only reading structurally cannot see an element that
has no record -- the `eff*` frame corners, the `deli*` dividers, `msg` -- which
is exactly what the committed real-vs-rebuilt capture shows missing. Rebuilt
around the header:
* element declaration table at 0x20 (60-byte entries: name, parent index at
+32, kind flags, pivot) = the back-to-front draw list;
* the placement region after it = per-element keyframe groups.
Verified against the disc, each against a fact the docs state independently:
`pgpeff02a` -> parent 3 = `pgpeff02`; `pgp_ttrl_btn10` rests at (546,288); the
pause buttons sit at 268/337/407/478, the documented 70 px pitch; the Arsenal
carries X = -516. The tutorial PAUSE menu now composites 11/11 elements and
matches the real screen more closely than the earlier rebuild did.
Three defects found while validating, none of which any test would have caught:
* the keyframe block is 40 bytes with X/Y/time at +28/+32/+36 and an
alpha-ramping ARGB at +0 -- the fade, previously unread;
* a group's data stops 4 bytes short of its last block's time slot, so that
word is the NEXT group's element index. Reading it produced times like
1869640736 and silently corrupted the max-dwell pick. Last-frame time is
now `None`;
* the `.rat` sprite-name field is not 16 bytes. Capping it there truncated
`pgp_ttrl_title.t32` to `pgp_ttrl_title.t`, which resolved against nothing
and dropped 4 of 11 tutorial elements from the composite.
Max-dwell also needed a tie-break: on equal gaps take the LATER frame, or
`pgpmsg` reports the y=645 fly-through instead of the y=605 it settles at.
savegame -- a Rust port of tools/re-capture/savegame.py
------------------------------------------------------
GDHA container, zlib payload, chunk stream (GDAA / phase / GHAD 122 B / 16x20 B
SHAB / trailer). Every GHAD word carries its own confidence rather than the
block being presented as solved: 6 named, 2 recorded as REFUTED (+36, +56 were
tested as difficulty and as stage and are neither), 7 still unknown.
Tested against the three real saves committed under docs/re/captures -- no disc
and no emulator needed. The load-bearing assertion is the byte-identical
round-trip; the develop differential is asserted as a property (spending 4000 P
moves +24 and not its twin +28, steps the clear ratio, and moves exactly two
blob entries), and the header summary is checked to agree with the payload it
mirrors -- the trap that makes the Details panel a bad oracle.
CLI: `screen list|info|render` and `save info`, so both are checkable headlessly
in the same spirit as `mesh render`.

The movie cutscene subtitle + voice pipeline, driven by the ADVERTISE_MOVIE
manifest (the authoritative movie -> subtitle -> voice index). Also flushes
several sessions of local WIP (async viewer loading, grouped-pool XBG7/hero-ship
decode, drawlog tooling). See docs/HANDOFF-movie-voice-subtitles-2026-07-19.md.
Subtitles (movie_subtitle.rs):
- Full movie->track->text chain; join multi-line captions sharing one timing
(fixes S13A dropped "Look at it father" line); overlap-safe active_cues();
Latin-1 accents preserved.
Voice (slb.rs): XACT .slb -> XMA1 RIFF; take the FIRST sub-wave bounded by its
declared data size (fixes S10-S16 alternate-take garble); list_voice_clips.
Manifest (movie_manifest.rs): parse ADVERTISE_MOVIE (0x5B983A08) for the real
movie->voice binding (not always VOICE_<movie>; e.g. hokyu -> VOICE_D_* in etc\).
Resolve the token's sound.pak path via sounds.tbl. DIRECT bindings only — the
demo-id shared-clip fallback for unbound hokyu movies was verified WRONG in-game
and reverted (unbound hokyu stay unvoiced; correct join key is an OPEN problem).
Viewer: manifest-driven voice (movie player toggle + solo button), standalone
"Voice Lines" browser, stacked caption overlay.
Tests: 46 formats-lib + 11 viewer-lib + movie_manifest/movie_subtitle/slb disc
tests; full workspace green.

Revert the mis-guided "triangle STRIP" reading (a937779): XBG7 index
buffers are triangle LISTS (prim=4 in the GPU capture; stored-normal
agreement 1.000 as a list vs ~0.49 as a strip). Reinstate the
winding-consistency gate.
Crack the grouped-pool layout used by the hero ship and ~150 detailed
models. A resource's sub-meshes share one index pool (buffers 4-byte
aligned, in descriptor-marker order) followed by one vertex pool (each
vtx_count*stride, same order); the vertex pool is 4-byte aligned after
the index pool. The whole resource is derived from one anchored pivot:
ib0 = vb0 - span - pad (pad in 0..=3, alignment)
ib[i] = align4(ib[i-1] + idx_count[i-1]*2)
vb[i] = vb[i-1] + vtx_count[i-1]*stride
vb0 is found via the unit-normal vertex-run scan; the alignment is
confirmed by validating the LARGEST sub-mesh (most reliable), after
which the rest are read/validated. A single marker reduces this to the
existing adjacency anchor, so grouped generalises it.
Results (cross-checked against a Canary GPU draw-log capture of
DeltaSaber_T.xpr):
- DeltaSaber_T f001 = body + 7 detail parts = 8650 tris, every sub-mesh
0-degenerate / full-coverage / winding-agreement 1.000.
- All 19 previously-declined weapon models now decode (they hit pad 2
and/or lead with a tiny bracket that broke a markers[0] pivot). Corpus
audit: 0/146 geometry files fail (was 19 -> flat-texture in the viewer).
- Stages unchanged (single-marker path is byte-identical; grouped falls
back to the old anchor on failure). 7/7 disc tests green incl. the
strict stage quality audit; new hero_ship_grouped_pool_decodes test.
Viewer: route by count_xbg7; --only matches an exact model name (so the
neutral pose renders without the mnv*/turn180 animation poses). Fix the
albedo matcher: match a sub-model to its _col map by entity stem
(e007_bdy_01 -> e007_col) instead of a full-name prefix, lifting stage
sub-model texturing from ~25% to ~95% (the rest were flat grey). Colour
correctness (channel order/sRGB) remains a separate dynamic-RE item.

The weapon/prop models (rou_fxxx_wep_nn.xpr) rendered with triangular holes in
the hull and misplaced/extra spikes. Root cause: XBG7 sub-mesh index buffers are
triangle STRIPS, but the decoder read them as triangle LISTS — a strip of N
indices is N-2 triangles, a list is only N/3, so ~2/3 of every hull was missing
(the holes) and each list-triple of strip data spanned unrelated vertices (the
spikes). The tell: triangles-per-vertex was 0.5-1.0 with 0 unreferenced vertices
(a closed surface needs ~2.0).
- mesh.rs: expand_triangle_strip() converts strip -> list with alternating
winding, skipping degenerate triangles (repeated index = strip restart).
Applied in both from_xpr2 (weapons) and read_pool_mesh (stage sub-models).
All 71 weapon submeshes now have healthy ratios; hulls fill in (wep_03 cannon,
wep_04 pod, wep_11, wep_37 verified coherent).
- Module doc updated (strip, not list).
- sylpheed-cli: `mesh info` reports per-submesh degenerate/unref/spanning-triangle
counts; `mesh render` gains --dist (camera zoom). XMESHDBG env dumps the
descriptor index markers.
Known residual: an index buffer may concatenate several strips with no degenerate
bridge, leaving ~2 spanning "spike" triangles at each restart (index jump to a new
vertex region) — <1% of tris on most models. Decoding the restart mechanism is a
follow-up (a blanket spanning-filter is unsafe: clean models have legit elongated
tip triangles).

Follow-up to the 256×256-tiling reversal — the residual boundary seams on
≥2×2-tile textures are gone. Decoding the file header revealed the exact
layout (no oracle capture needed):
0x00 44 base header
0x1c 4 tile count = ceil(w/256) * ceil(h/256)
0x2c tiles*4 BE-u32 absolute offset of each row-major 256×256 tile
<off> 16 per-tile header, then tile_w*tile_h*4 A8R8G8B8 pixels
The old seams came from ignoring the offset table and the 16-byte per-tile
header (contiguous-packing drifted 16 bytes per tile). Small textures decoded
before only by luck: one tile puts pixels at 44+4+16 = 64, the old type-1
"header size". Now the 8AX title background, the prselect_win1 window frame,
and preff04 all decode pixel-perfect (verified against the title screen).
- t8ad.rs: parse() walks the offset table; dropped detile_256 + the
header-size-by-type table. Non-tilecount entries (field != ceil*ceil) return
None (likely DXT/other, deferred). New multi-tile round-trip test.
- sylpheed-cli: pak textures decodes via parse(); XDUMPHDR=1 dumps the base
header + offset table for RE. Removed the now-obsolete XTILE/XSCORE/XDESTRIP
experiment knobs and the reconstruct_tiles/TV-sweep helpers.

Verified against the running game (freeze-fixed Canary title screen) that
T8aD colours are correct (no R↔B swap) and that wide textures were garbled
by an unreversed tile layout, not a colour bug.
Reversed the layout: large T8aD are stored as 256×256 raster tiles in
row-major order, each tile raster internally, edge tiles clipped to the
image (payload is exactly w*h*4, no padding). Surfaces ≤256px wide are a
single tile column, identical to plain linear — which is why small UI
textures always decoded correctly.
- t8ad.rs: add detile_256() + apply in parse(). Single tile-row / single
tile-column textures now decode exactly (ptcopyright, ptbtn, ptlogo1 =
clean "PROJECT" logo, previously pure noise). Known residual: ≥2×2-tile
textures (>256 in both dims, e.g. the 8AX background) come out coherent
but with boundary seams — the multi-tile order is a subtle swizzle, TBD.
- sylpheed-cli: new `pak textures <pak> <out>` command — decodes every
T8aD (direct, RATC-nested, LSTA frames) to PNG for A/B against the game.
Env debug knobs for layout RE: XTILE/XDESTRIP/XDETILE_W/XREINTERPRET_PITCH

- Port xenia-canary's complete 64-entry texture-format table (xenos.h enum +
texture_info_formats.inl) into GPU_FORMATS + gpu_format_name()/desc() and
X360TextureFormat::gpu_name()/desc().
- Viewer + CLI `texture info` now show the canonical k_… name, bpp and
compressed flag (e.g. "k_DXT1 (Dxt1) · 4 bpp, compressed"); UnsupportedFormat
now names the format instead of a bare hex code.
- Detect non-XPR2 containers up front: the game ships one XPR5 file
(Common.xpr) alongside 165 XPR2 — report UnsupportedContainer("XPR5")
cleanly instead of a "bad magic" parse error.
- Add a table-integrity test (index==code, spot-checks, decodable-variant
consistency).
Static-RE scan of the 166 resource3d XPRs: only k_DXT1 (145), k_8_8_8_8 (19),
k_DXT5A (1) are used — all already decoded, so this is presentation, not new
decoders.

- Move the IDXD->TOC-path resolver into sylpheed-formats as
IdxdObject::recover_toc_path() so the CLI `pak list` and the GUI pack
browser share one implementation (behaviour-preserving; CLI still
resolves 308/1004 on GP_MAIN_GAME_E).
- PAK browser now shows each entry's recovered original path (via the
name-hash) in green, in both the entry list and the IDXD detail heading.
- Replace the stale welcome "RE Notes" table (mesh/audio "unknown") with an
accurate reverse-engineered-formats status grid + correct authorship.

Stage containers (hidden/resource3d/Stage_S*.xpr) are collections of up to
~450 enemy/prop sub-models, not single meshes. Xbg7Model::stage_models decodes
them: each resource is a [12-byte header][index buffer][vertex buffer] block
(index count = descriptor marker, vertex count = u32 32 bytes before it) whose
on-disc offset is NOT stored, so it is located by content — one O(file) pass per
stride finds vertex-buffer starts (unit NORMAL at +12 whose previous slot isn't)
and each resource is pinned to the candidate whose indices validate and produce
non-degenerate, well-connected triangles. A connectivity gate (mean triangle
edge <= 0.28x the bbox diagonal) rejects spiky mis-anchors. ~4993 sub-models
decode across the 22 stages.
The same insight fixes the weapon single-model layout: it is [12-byte header]
[index][vertex] too, not [index][12-byte gap][vertex]. Reading indices from the
block start turned the 12 header bytes into 6 junk indices (2 leading degenerate
triangles — the recurring stray-triangle artifact) and dropped the last 6 real
indices. Skipping the header leaves vertex offsets identical (coverage unchanged
at 36/166) and corrects the triangle list. Verified on wep_00/03/04.
Adds `sylpheed-cli mesh {info,render}` — a headless software rasterizer that
writes a shaded PNG (orthographic, z-buffered, two-sided), so recovered geometry
can be verified without the GUI. Stages render as a normalised thumbnail grid;
--only filters sub-models.
Tests: stage_models_{decode,sweep,quality_audit}; docs/re updated (xbg7-mesh.md
evidence log + INDEX.md).

Roadmap #3. The explorer can now open IPFB data packs — the game's ship/weapon/
mission definition tables. Selecting a `.pak` shows a master-detail browser:
entry list (hash · inner-format · identity) on the left, the selected IDXD
object's schema + explicit-field property table on the right.
Load path: a `.pak` selection reads the index plus its sibling `.pNN` segments
(ISO reader or extracted dir, probing p00.. until the first gap), assembles via
PakArchive::from_parts, and builds owned PakRow/PakDetail entirely off-thread —
so the UI holds only plain data (no borrow of a PakArchive, WASM-safe). Two
decode caps (64 MiB cumulative, 16 MiB/entry) keep a huge sound.pak from hanging;
over-budget entries show as "(not decoded)".
Wiring mirrors the texture path: new IsoLoaderMsg::PakLoaded → PendingPak staging
→ apply_pak. A shared reset (free GPU handle + clear texture/text/pak previews)
runs in both apply systems, so exactly one viewer is active per selection and the
prior GPU texture is always freed when switching modes.
Reuse over duplication: the CLI's inner_label / idxd_identity move into the
formats crate as pak::inner_format_label and IdxdObject::identity (bodies
verbatim → CLI output unchanged), now shared by CLI and GUI.
PakView registered unconditionally (wasm-safe; population native-only). ViewMode
unchanged — the central panel dispatches on the populated resource. Workspace
builds; 22 formats tests + all crate tests pass.

Explorer drawer was a flat list of all 353 disc files and only textures had a
preview. Two additions:
1. Directory tree — the left drawer is now a collapsible `📁` tree, rebuilt each
frame from the path list (ui.rs: build_tree / split_for_tree / render_dir).
Filtering narrows leaves and auto-expands matches; `.p00…p04` data segments
nest under a virtual `<stem>.pak` node. Selection still keys off the original
file index, so the loader pipeline is untouched.
2. Plain-text viewer — config.ini and any file that sniffs as text now show
read-only, selectable, monospace content with a Wrap toggle and an encoding
label. Detection/decoding live in the Bevy-free formats crate:
vfs::is_probably_text + vfs::decode_text (BOM-aware UTF-8/UTF-16LE/BE, BOM-less
UTF-16LE heuristic, NUL-reject + 95%-printable fallback) — pure std, WASM-safe,
unit-tested (6 new tests), and reused by the CLI sniffer (new cyan `txt`).
New TextPreview resource (registered unconditionally so it exists on wasm);
populated in apply_loaded_texture with a 2 MiB char-boundary-safe cap. Also fixes
a latent bug: switching from a texture to a non-texture left stale preview state —
both texture and text state now reset on every selection.
ViewerState gains text_wrap. Formats tests: 22 pass; workspace compiles.

Reworks the XPR2 texture path after RE against the retail disc (viewer
previews were scrambled/failed).
- de-tile: replace the naive Morton-over-32×32 approximation with the
faithful Xenos Tiled2D bank/pipe/macro-tile address formula (ported
from xenia texture_address.h). Verified correct: the Acheron backdrop
decodes to a sharp planet with its spiral storm.
- endian: undo the X360 word byte-swap per the fetch-constant endianness
field (k8in16/k8in32/k16in32) — without it BCn/ARGB data is noise.
- cubemaps: parse TXCM resources (skybox/backdrops), decoding face 0,
instead of erroring "No TX2D found".
- A8R8G8B8: correct channel order after the k8in32 swap ([A,R,G,B]→RGBA)
— the Acheron backdrop is now correctly green, not red.
- XPR files are texture PACKS; add XPR_RES_INDEX to select a resource.
- CLI `texture export` now writes real PNGs (texpresso BCn decode +
image), replacing the stub. Adds texpresso + image deps.
- tests/texture_disc.rs: integration test running the pipeline over real
disc .xpr files (28/28 parse). RE debug knobs: XPR_NO_DETILE /
XPR_NO_ENDIAN / XPR_FORCE_ENDIAN.
KNOWN ISSUE: mipmapped DXT1 textures still decode to noise — mip 0 is
not at base_address in the multi-resource packs (localized to a mip
storage-offset quirk; uncompressed + de-tile + endian are all verified).

Add hash::recover_toc_name + TOC_NAME_SCHEMES (confirmed path schemes:
unit\<ID>.tbl, weapon\<ID>.tbl, message\<ID>.tbl, effect\<ID>.tbl,
<name>.tbl) that reproduce an entry's original backslash path from its
internal identity string via the recovered name-hash.
`pak list` now extracts identifier candidates from each IDXD entry
(ID/Name/Model + pool tokens) and prints the resolved path when a scheme
matches — e.g. unit\UN_f001_TCAF_DeltaSaber_T.tbl,
weapon\Weapon_…_Missile.tbl, message\CharacterCARL.tbl — plus a
name-resolved count. 308/1004 resolved on GP_MAIN_GAME_E; the remainder
use deeper cross-referenced paths (deferred).

Add readers for Project Sylpheed's on-disc data format so the
reimplementation can load exact ship/weapon constants straight from
the game files.
- pak.rs: PakArchive — parse the IPFB `.pak` index + concatenated
`.pNN` segments, binary-search the TOC by name-hash, and transparently
inflate the per-entry "Z1" (zlib) container. Adds flate2.
- idxd.rs: IdxdObject — parse the IDXD reflective object serialization.
The string pool stores properties value-before-key with defaulted
fields omitted; typed getters (get_f32/get_i64/get_str/get_bool) read
explicit values reliably, get_raw exposes identifier fields, and
resolved_fields() enumerates every explicit (key,value). Defaulted
fields correctly return None rather than a neighbouring key.
- sylpheed-cli: `pak list` (inventory entries + identity) and
`pak dump <hash>` (full stat sheet for one object).
Verified against the real disc (auto-skipped without it): DeltaSaber
craft (HP=1000, Acceleration=600, velocity curve 100/700/1200, Turn=100,
RadarRange=500000) and the DSaber missile (LoadingCount=144, Interval=3.00,
Mass=0.77). 10 unit + 3 integration tests pass.
Not yet decoded: defaulted fields (many ratios, the *Count family) whose
values come from schema defaults or the hash-keyed binary node region.
