The port listed palogo_gamearts_eff and palogo_seta_eff among GP_TITLE's four visible dwell-fallback fires; this census listed only palogo_sqex_eff and palogo_anima_eff. Checked, and the census is right: gamearts_eff and seta_eff hold a=255 at identical x, y and scale from t=15 to t=30, which is a plateau at pair index 1, so rest_plateau() handles them and t=15 is the CORRECT answer. They are not fallback cases. The distinction is not cosmetic -- a plateau is a pose the element genuinely holds, and only the dwell fallback is the unsound path. But the refutation makes the port's underlying point STRONGER. Its rest pose for those two really is the flash's peak, reached by the SOUND path. So 'a rest render is not a frame to score against a capture' does not follow from the fallback being unsound: a plateau can itself be the held peak of a transient. The rule covers both paths, and the fallback census understates the exposure rather than bounding it. Also records the port's oracle number for the rule -- publisher splash against the committed capture, timeline RMSE 2.17 / 0.01 % differing against --pose=rest 9.05 / 0.75 %, 75x the differing area.

Sylpheed
A clean-room reverse engineering and port project for Project Sylpheed: Arc of Deception (Xbox 360, 2007).
Three things live here, in one repository so that a change spanning them lands as one commit:
| The decoders | crates/sylpheed-formats — the disc's formats, read and verified disc-wide |
| The port | port/ — a Godot 4 project, plus crates/sylpheed-export which converts a disc into the open asset tree it reads |
| The corpus | docs/re/ — what has been reverse engineered, with its evidence, its retractions and its dead ends |
You need your own copy of the game. No game content is in this repository and none ever will be. The exporter reads the disc you supply.
The oracle is the real game
sylpheed-cliand the Explorer are tools for verifying our decoding. They are hypotheses under test and they have been wrong. When something must be checked against the truth, the truth is the game running in Xenia Canary, captured — not any renderer of ours.
This is stated first because getting it backwards is the most expensive mistake this project has made.

Xenia Canary is a separate repository: it is a fork tracking upstream, and it carries our instrumentation.
