seedds 9c1e449470 Bayonetta 2 (01007960049A0000, update 1.2 = v131072, PlatinumGames' engine in its Wii U form on SDK 3.6.0, the oldest SDK so far): game profile, a CRI CPK reader for the shader split, and two general NVN fixes. Plays on the iPhone (IPA 12.5 GB, user). On the Mac from a fresh save: the boot, the PlatinumGames logo movie (USM), the title, a new game (slot 1, the auto-save notice, Story, Normal), the opening narration (which cannot be skipped on a first play), the prologue cutscene (skipped: Plus, Down, A, A), the tutorial (closed: Plus, Down x4, A), Verse 1 on the jet, Rodin's cutscene and the next fight with an Umbran Climax and a torture attack, with Wwise sound through two 6-channel AudioOuts: 60 fps in play (frame time p50 16.67 ms, p95 about 17.5 ms; GPU 2-3.5 ms a frame on an M6), 30 in its cutscenes as the game asks, about 1.6 GB resident and 1.75 GB of Metal allocations. No host change was needed for SDK 3.6.0 itself (NVN API 53); no virtual address memory (a 3.11 GB heap in the 4 GB layout, mem_used 102 MB). Files: six CPK archives (9.5 GB, 6,091 files, 12 GB of them CRILAYLA-compressed) of PlatinumGames DAT archives. New dm/gfx/tools/cpk.py: the @UTF tables (and the masked ones of Unicorn Overlord's CPKs, the same tables as before once unmasked), the TOC and CRILAYLA (a decoder over a bit string, about 29 MB/s); shader_split.py cpk_jobs splits the CPKs into jobs and scans each entry (a CPK it cannot read is scanned as one file, with a [RED] line). Shaders: 1,856 BNSH files of one stage each (.vso / .pso) in shader.dat, shader2.dat and shadereff.dat of data000.cpk, all built for the Mac and iOS. nvn_mtl.m, both general: a cleared attachment larger than the render pass (Metal's render area is the smallest attachment) is now cleared in a pass of its own and loaded by the pass, as NVN clears the whole target (rp_begin_ex_): the game's 32x32 and 256x256 passes cleared only that corner of its full-size depth target, so the opening narration drew in a corner of a black screen and the opening scenes were speckled; and Downsample of a single-sample texture is a filtered scaling copy of the whole level that may convert the format (copy_t2t, its bloom chain 320x176 -> 80x48 and its 1280x720 BGRA8 frame into an RGBA8 texture), which logged red lines before. build_ipa_from_nsp.py: a survey note for CPK archives. Profile: the 3D pad layout (the camera is on the right stick; the game's touch controls are handheld only), a prewarm list recorded on the Mac over the route above (974 lines). Checked: the graphics run list, the host unit tests and the 49 tool tests pass; Unicorn Overlord's CPKs split as before. Not checked: 13 Sentinels and Catherine: Full Body's CPKs (no files on the drives), the clear fix in other games beyond the unit tests. README (games gallery, a Mac picture of Verse 1), AGENTS.md (58 -> 59), docs/development.md and docs/agents 01 / 03 / 04 say so

host

Mario vs. Donkey Kong (0100B99019412000, update 1.0.1 over the cartridge base game, Nintendo's sead / agl / gsys engine on SDK 15.3.0): game profile plus three general host changes. Plays on the iPhone (IPA 1.6 GB, user). On the Mac: the opening movie with sound, the title (Press L+R), file select, the play style choice, the first cutscene, level 1-1 (both colour switches, the spring, a time-out and its restart), the pause menu, leaving the level, level select and the save it shows: 60 fps (frame interval p99 about 17 ms), sound, about 1 GB resident in the level and flat while it runs, CPU about 30% of a core, no red line on that route.

ios

CI on GitHub's macOS runners (from PR #132): .github/workflows/tests.yml runs, for pull requests, pushes to main and manual dispatch, three jobs on macos-26 in parallel: the host unit tests and the graphics tests that need no GPU (t_dirty_slots, t_dirty_race, t_pace, t_fstep, t_hmap, t_cover, t_pso_skey, t_refl and t_rt_range_ro, the last two skipping their sample checks); every test_*.py of dm/tools/tests, dm/ios/tests and dm/gfx/tests on Python 3.14 with lz4, capstone and fonttools; and a build check: dmhost for Wonder (NVN), Hades (Vulkan) and Digimon Story Cyber Sleuth (GL), every graphics test compiled but not run, and the iOS host sources compiled for the iPhone SDK by a new helper, dm/ios/tools/compile_check.py (the host Makefile's file list and flags as gen_build.py takes them, the host's own command first so its header paths come before libvpx's; 133 files, no game files, signing or Xcode project). Read-only permissions, superseded runs cancelled, a timeout per job, logs uploaded only on failure, actions pinned to commit SHAs (checkout v7.0.1, setup-python v7.1.0, upload-artifact v7.0.2, each checked against its tag). The GPU tests stay local (the hosted runners are virtual Macs without Metal 4, issue #112), and so does profile_guess.py --check (it reads game extractions). test_xcode_workflow.py: the stand-in profile carries the registered profile's title_id, which report_profile_status reads since ce17300 (the test had 3 errors on main). Checked by replaying the three jobs on this Mac on current main: all pass, the tool tests in a fresh Python 3.14 venv with only the three packages

tools

NSZ and XCZ files in the NSP folder (from PR #140): the NSP script converts them itself instead of a second script. scan_nsps lists *.nsz and *.xcz beside *.nsp and *.xci (an NSZ is a PFS0 with the NSP's ticket, so title_of reads it as it is; a compressed file with an NSP of the same name beside it is skipped), and decompress_nsz converts each once with nsz -D, run from the Python running the script (Spyder does not have its bin folder on PATH), into <title ID>_build/nsp/, before the build ID lookup or the survey reads them. nsz writes into an empty temporary folder and the file is moved into nsp/ only when nsz exits 0 and made it, so a partial file left by a failure or an interruption is never taken for a whole one (with -w left out, nsz itself skips an output whose title and version are already there and exits 0); a conversion is reused while its source has the same name, size and modification time. nsz -D prints an NCA hash mismatch but goes on and exits 0 (Decompressor.decompress passes raiseVerificationException=False), so a damaged file is left to nx_extract's own hash check (--allow-damaged). Without the nsz package the script stops with one line: pip install nsz. README: one line in the packing steps; docs/development.md says how it works. AGENTS.md: only build_ipa_from_nsp.py has to run in Spyder with F5; the other scripts in scripts/ run from a terminal (the user). New test dm/tools/tests/test_nsp_nsz.py (nsz stood in for). Checked: the new test, test_nsp_alias, test_nsp_chain, test_nsp_mac, test_nsp_progress and test_xcode_workflow pass; ANIMAL WELL's base game and update compressed with nsz 5.0.0 -C, then the script on a folder holding only the two NSZ files: both converted (byte for byte the original NSPs), the IPA built (exit 0), and a second run reused both conversions. Not checked: an XCZ, the IPA on the iPhone
