r3d_hdr_calibrate(peak, paper, black) feeds the tonemap's and the overlay's HDR10 variants and
the display's HDR metadata; ov_hdr_nits draws a calibration patch at a number of nits.
gpu_caps_probe asks the running Vulkan renderer's instance instead of making and destroying a
second one under Streamline's interposer, which left the next swapchain rebuild calling address 0.
The overlay gets an HDR10 variant, and the tonemap brightens HDR highlights by one factor rather
than per channel.

A chunk's dispatch was sized for its largest tile, so the far tiles beside a
near one ran thousands of empty invocations: 9.8 ms of grass at 4K on an RTX
3070 Ti. One dispatch per tile, sized to that tile, brings it to 5.0 ms - still
three times the chunked path's 1.7 (36 fps against 41), so GF_MESH_GRASS is not
implemented yet and the Advanced row says a coming update.

- sky_start_yaw: a game that turns the sky at boot sets it before r3d_init and the image-based light
is baked once at that yaw; sky_set_yaw to a yaw already baked bakes nothing.
- terrain_init_step: the height field and normals, the sun shadow, the materials, the patches and
programs as separate steps; r3d_load_count is 8, so a loading bar moves through the terrain (half
the start-up) instead of jumping over it. terrain_init runs the four in a row as before.
- The per-cascade actor cull centres its sphere at half the model's height and sizes it by the
larger of height and radius: centred at the radius, it dropped a head at a cascade's edge (11 px
in town, found by the drawstats comparison). Lake was byte-identical before and after.
OpenGL frames at the five viewpoints unchanged; the game's 59 self-tests pass.

- r3d_open opens the window with nothing baked; r3d_load_count / r3d_load_step run the rest (sky
and light, terrain, shadow and screen targets, cover and actors, grass) so a game can present a
loading frame between them. r3d_init is the same calls in a row.
- sky_set_quality(width): the prefiltered sky light at 256 / 512 / 1024, baked again.
- post_set_msaa(samples): multisampling on OpenGL, remade in place (post_msaa_live is false on
Vulkan); post_free frees the multisampled framebuffer too.
- STREAM_BUDGET_US is a variable; r3d_fog_scale multiplies the fog the day sets.
- Vulkan buffers carry UNIFORM_BUFFER usage: the frame's ring is bound as uniform buffers and was
created without it (VUID-VkWriteDescriptorSet-descriptorType-00330, found on MoltenVK).
OpenGL frames at the five viewpoints unchanged; the game's 59 self-tests pass.

- r3d_set_anisotropy(level) updates every mipmapped texture already loaded (OpenGL parameter,
Vulkan sampler record), not only later uploads; the game's setting never reached the scanned
materials, which load before the settings are read.
- shadow_set_res(size) remakes the cascades at 1024 / 2048 / 4096 (shadow_res replaces the
SHADOW_RES constant); lighting.glsl reads the texel size from the map, so OpenGL frames at
2048 are unchanged.

- `fn name` names a top-level function as a value (E_FNREF, lowers to @fn_<name>); the worker
entry point for Job.parallel_for, which checks it takes (int, pointer-like) and returns void.
- runtime/native/threads.ll (pthreads) and threads_win.ll (Win32 SRWLOCK/CONDITION_VARIABLE): a
pool of one worker per core but one, parked between batches; every thread claims chunks by
compare-and-swap. Linked only into programs that use Job/Promise/Sync, by `ludicc -o`,
`ludic build` and the test suite's build helper.
- Sync.* is real: native mutexes, atomics as cmpxchg retry loops (neither clang takes atomicrw,
the PC's rejects seq_consistent), mutex-guarded channels, Sync.cpu_count from the OS.
- spawn/despawn on a pool thread stop the program with a located panic.
- examples/library/threads.ludic and its test; docs for fn, Job.parallel_for, Job.is_worker.
- Reseeded (bootstrap-cfree: out.ll == seed.ll). 141/141 on macOS; jobs, threads and the guard

Render state (depth, blending, culling, colour writes, alpha-to-coverage, depth bias,
scissor) and uniforms go through gpu_* / u_* and nowhere else; OpenGL state is cached and
only changes reach the driver. Frames are bit-identical to before at the fixed viewpoints.
R3D_GFX=gl|vk or gpu_request chooses a backend, falling back to OpenGL with a reason.
gpu_caps_probe() asks Vulkan, on Windows, for the 1.3 floor, ray tracing, mesh shaders, the
NVIDIA RTX generation, Reflex and HDR colour spaces, for a game's settings to grey out what
a machine cannot use; R3D_CAPS pretends to be a given card for tests.

The delta was this frame's position minus the last, and the last started at 0,0, so the
first frame reported the cursor's whole distance from the corner as motion. A cursor-mode
change did the same, switching between a locked cursor's virtual reticle and the real
cursor. Maroon Lake's camera adds mouse_dy to its pitch and came up pointing at the ground.
examples/library/input_mouse_rebase.ludic covers both cases, plus ordinary motion and
re-setting the mode already in force.

The queue was only emptied by the next outline_model call, so the last highlighted tree kept
its rim after the player looked away. r3d_frame now calls outline_frame, which drops a batch
the previous frame closed and nobody reopened.

ov_text, ov_text_w and ov_text_wrap decode UTF-8 instead of drawing bytes 32-126. font.json
may list the atlas's code points in "codes"; an atlas without it reads as before (ASCII
from "first"). A missing code point draws as '?', a cut-off sequence as one '?'.
overlay_font(dir) loads or swaps the atlas at run time, for a language with its own script.

Needle-card crowns are many cut-out quads deep and a discarding shader turns early depth
rejection off, so every card behind the front one ran the full lighting shader. The near
tree LODs now write depth first (depth.frag, the same alpha coverage test), terrain under
them is rejected before shading, and the lit pass draws them with no discard and an equal
depth test (invariant gl_Position). R3D_NOPREPASS=1 restores the old path.
Dense forest on a Windows PC: 61 -> 78 fps at 3840x2160, 116 -> 164 fps at 1920x1080.

http_link_flags grepped the IR for "@hs_", which every program's header
declares, so `ludic build` linked the HTTP transport and Foundation into
everything - invisible on macOS, a failed link on Linux, where it broke four CI
cases (ludic run, the installed layout, ludic new, the seed build through
`ludic build`). It now looks for a call to hs_send: examples/library/http.ludic
has one, snake.ludic (which still declares ten @hs_ names) has none.

The asset-pack boot calls _NSGetExecutablePath, which glibc does not have, so
the Linux link of the compiler seed failed in every CI job - build-and-test,
cfree-fixpoint and every publish run - since packs landed. The last release CI
created was v0.7.0. The Linux shim now defines it over /proc/self/exe.

http_win.ll implements http.ll's hs_* contract over WinHTTP: the request is a
record built on the game thread, the whole exchange runs on a worker thread,
TLS uses the system's certificate checks, and headers are answered from the
kept request handle. ludicc links it with winhttp instead of refusing Http.* on
Windows.
win32.ll decodes the splash and App.set_icon images with WIC (ole32): the
splash is a topmost borderless window at the artwork's size in points times the
display scale, composited over its background colour; the icon becomes an
HICON set on the window now or when win_open makes one.
Verified on the PC: examples/library/http.ludic prints its expected output, a
real GET to https://git.workshopsoft.io/ returns 200 with its body and
Content-Type, and the bundled Maroon Lake shows its splash centred at launch and
its icon in the title bar.

The CLI's shell commands go through shell(), which is run() on POSIX and a
scratch script handed to Git for Windows' bash on Windows (exit codes read
directly there). compile_app links through `ludicc -o` on Windows, ludic run
starts the .exe, and ludic-dev build and ensure_ludicc assemble
selfhost/ludicc.win.seed.ll, which ludic-dev reseed now writes beside the
macOS seed. ludic bundle makes build/<name>/ with a GUI-subsystem exe carrying
the .ico beside `app icon` as an llvm-rc resource, game.lpak and packs.index;
ludicc gains --gui and --link, and quotes its whole link line for cmd.exe.
Verified: ludic-dev test 135/135, selfhost-test 32/32; on the PC a checkout
bootstraps from the Windows seed, ludic-dev build makes the toolchain, and
`ludic bundle` makes build/Maroon Lake/, which runs from its own folder.

AppKit gives kVK_Delete (51) the character NSDeleteCharacter, 127, which is
what both ev_keyval (the held-key set) and win_poll (the per-frame key)
received, so Key.Backspace, which folds to 8, never matched. Both now map key
code 51 to 8.

compile_app linked gl.ll when the IR named @lgl_* but never http.ll and
Foundation for @hs_*, so examples/library/http.ludic failed to link under
`ludic build` on every hs_* symbol while `ludicc -o` built it. http_link_flags
greps for @hs_ and links them in both modes; ludic-dev test now builds the
example through `ludic build` as well.

The arrow Key constants folded to the codes of w/s/a/d, which is what the
per-frame key reports for an arrow, but cocoa.ll has always stored an arrow in
the held-key set under 128-131. So Input.key_down(Key.Up) read the W bit and
Input.move_i's arrow half never moved anything. Input.key keeps its WASD alias,
so games comparing it with 'w' (snake, chronorift) still take the arrows.
New example input_arrows.ludic, checked by ludic-dev test.

audio_win.ll implements audio.ll's snd_* contract over XAudio2 from IR: a
source voice per clip, restart on play, LoopCount for loops, SetVolume,
SetFrequencyRatio and a balance pan through SetOutputMatrix, with the COM
slots taken from the SDK's xaudio2.h. Clips are RIFF WAVE read through
lp_pak_open (weakly referenced), so a packed sound loads directly. ludicc links
it with xaudio2 and ole32, and silences xinput.lib's importeddllmain warning.
Verified: ludic-dev test 135/135, selfhost-test 32/32; on the PC a harness
loads, plays, pans, loops and stops clips, and Maroon Lake windowed reports
"sound: 31 of 31 clips loaded".

win32.ll implements cocoa.ll's contracts over user32 and xinput: the message
pump, the held-key set and frame key in Ludic codes, the mouse with raw input
for cursor mode 2, clip-based cursor modes released on focus loss, XInput pads,
and the software framebuffer present. win32_gl.ll puts the WGL 4.1 core context
on that window (vsync, borderless full screen); gl_win.ll's context code is now
lgl_wgl_core, shared with the headless hidden window, whose win_gl_* stubs move
to gl_win_nowin.ll. audio_win.ll links Audio.* silently for now.
Verified: macOS fixpoint, ludic-dev test 135/135, selfhost-test 32/32; on the
PC gl_triangle renders identically headless and in a real window, and Maroon
Lake builds windowed and runs a playtest to frame 240 in the desktop session.

gl_win.ll creates a hidden-window WGL 4.1 core context and carries gl.ll's
float/memory helpers, with ldexp and QueryPerformanceCounter in place of the
libSystem calls. glgen now also writes gl_thunks_win.ll: the same 478 thunks,
calling through pointers that @lgl_win_load fills from wglGetProcAddress (and
opengl32.dll for GL 1.1). ludicc links the pair against opengl32/gdi32/user32
on a Windows target.
Verified: gl_api.ludic and gl_thunks.ll regenerate byte-identically, ludic-dev
test 135/135, selfhost-test 32/32, and headless gl_triangle on an RTX 3070 Ti
matches the macOS frame to within one level per channel.

--target <triple> (default: the host, from OS=Windows_NT) selects the Windows
runtime. emit_win.ludic defines the POSIX names the backend already calls over
the UCRT and Win32 in IR, so rename replaces an existing file, ftell is 64-bit,
and fopen is binary. Known folders follow %APPDATA% / %LOCALAPPDATA% / %TEMP%,
and the driver speaks cmd.exe, writes .exe outputs and finds LLVM's clang.
Verified: macOS three-stage fixpoint, ludic-dev test 135/135, and on Windows
the Mac-emitted Windows IR and the Windows-built compiler's IR are identical
through two generations.

A water body other than the reflecting one drew its whole bounding rectangle,
so the corners outside the lake's carved ellipse showed water over dry ground;
those bodies now discard outside the ellipse. r3d_fog_base (default 0) is the
height the height fog is measured from, so maps sharing one datum at different
heights get the same air.

The degenerate case - a point exactly on a collider's axis, where there is no
direction to push it - set the normal to (1, 0), which is already a unit vector,
and then divided it by the clamped d = 0.001 along with the genuine normals. The
push came out a thousand times too big: dead centre on a 0.5 m trunk moved a body
about 800 m rather than the 0.85 m that clears it.
Off-centre the arithmetic was right, and off-centre is how anything arrives at a
trunk on foot, so nothing in play ever hit it. A teleport, a spawn, or a world
generator dropping something onto an existing collider would have.
(ex, ez) / d is a unit vector for every d > 0, because d is its own length -
there was never anything to clamp and nothing that could grow. The normal is now
built once and explicitly, and the clamp is gone.
Verified through a game, which is the only harness this package has: render3d's
own float helpers need the Gl runtime spliced, so collide.ludic cannot be
compiled standalone for a unit test. Maroon Lake's selftest12 stands a body dead
centre on a trunk and asserts the push never exceeds the two radii added together
- which is the definition of being pushed clear, and so the tightest honest bound
available. It reports 798.88 m before this change and 0.80 m after, with the
off-centre case unchanged at 0.66 m.
`ludic bundle` builds an AppIcon.icns and macOS reads it out of the .app, so a
shipped game has an icon. `ludic build` produces a bare executable: no bundle, no
CFBundleIconFile, and so no icon at all - macOS draws the generic green "exec"
tile. That is the build a developer runs every day, which is why "the game has no
icon" can be true for months while the bundle is perfect. It was here: the .app's
icns validated against iconutil, the plist was right, the signature was right,
and NSWorkspace rendered the artwork - and the binary beside it still had the
exec tile.
App.set_icon(path) takes the bytes through lp_pak_open, so a packed path and a
loose one both work and this does not repeat Audio.load's trick of taking a
filesystem path only. NSData copies them, so the buffer goes straight back. A
missing or undecodable image leaves the existing icon alone rather than clearing
it; a bundled app is unaffected; headless links no AppKit and compiles it away.
Verified the Cocoa sequence against an ObjC twin doing the same message sends:
before, a bare binary's applicationIconImage is the generic 128x128 tile; after,
it is the 1024x1024 artwork.
Backend change, so selfhost/ludicc.seed.ll is reseeded: the bootstrap fixpoint
and the C-free rebuild from the seed both pass.
They were the macOS layout on every platform - the comment above them even said
"macOS/BSD layout" - so a game built on Linux wrote its saves to
~/Library/Application Support, a directory that means nothing there. Naming the
right directory is the entire reason a program calls these instead of joining a
path itself.
macOS save/config ~/Library/Application Support/<app>
cache ~/Library/Caches/<app>
Linux save $XDG_DATA_HOME or ~/.local/share/<app>
config $XDG_CONFIG_HOME or ~/.config/<app>
cache $XDG_CACHE_HOME or ~/.cache/<app>
macOS is unchanged to the byte, deliberately. save_dir and config_dir stay the
same directory there: Apple's home for a config file that is not an
NSUserDefaults plist is Application Support too, and a shipped game's settings
must not move out from under it. On Linux XDG separates the two and so does this.
An XDG variable that is set but EMPTY falls back to the default, which is what
the spec says and what an exported-but-unset variable looks like from a shell.
uname is read once and remembered rather than per call, because save_dir is
called on every save.
Verified on both branches. macOS by running it; the Linux branch by building the
probe's IR with the cached platform flag pinned, which exercises the emitted XDG
code exactly - unset, set, and set-but-empty all resolve as the spec says. The
suite's own case asserts the HOST's convention, so a macOS box covers the Apple
branch and CI covers XDG.
This is a backend change, so selfhost/ludicc.seed.ll is reseeded with it: the
bootstrap fixpoint (gen2 == gen3) and the C-free rebuild from the seed both pass.
A pack root is packed wholesale, and that is the right default - a game writes
`pack "assets"` and everything it opens is in the pack. What also goes in is
everything the game does NOT open: the preview renders a model pipeline leaves
beside its meshes, the intermediate a texture bake writes and never reads again,
the .blend the .gltf came out of. Nothing errors, nothing looks wrong, and the
app is simply bigger than the game. The only way out the manifest offered was
naming every file by hand, which is worse - a list that goes stale the day
someone adds a texture.
So `.packignore`, with gitignore's rules, because that is the file everyone
already knows. Anchored and floating patterns, `preview/` for directories only,
`*` and `?` stopping at a separator where `**` crosses one, `[a-z]` classes, `!`
re-includes with the last line winning, a deeper file beating a shallower one,
and no re-including out of an ignored directory.
The semantics are not claimed, they are checked: the implementation was diffed
against git itself over two fixtures - 35 paths, 19 patterns, nested ignore
files, directory negation, `[!0-9]` and `\#` escaping - and `git check-ignore`
and `ludic pack` agree on every path.
Two rules of its own, because a pack is not a working tree. `.packignore` is
never packed (nothing reads one at run time, and --no-ignore does not bring it
back). And it governs the project's own roots only: a package's resources - the
renderer's shaders above all - are added after the gather, so a stray `*.frag`
in a game's ignore file cannot quietly un-ship what it needs to draw anything.
`ludic pack` reports what it left out; `--no-ignore` packs everything so you can
see what a rule is costing. `ludic bundle` gathers through the same path, so the
two agree by construction.
A frame is drawn by more than one pass - a shadow map, a water reflection, the
scene - and actor_draw runs in each. An Actor's rim survives that because it is
a field on the actor; the queue did not, because the first pass to run emptied
it. A queued outline was drawn into whichever target came first and was gone by
the time the scene was drawn, so nothing appeared with every uniform, matrix
and mesh correct - which took a while to find.
A flush now closes the batch rather than clearing it, and the next
outline_model opens a new one.
