v1.1.12 — Processors without AVX2, Discord status and the paid Japanese edition

English

Processors without AVX2 now run the port. Until now the port only opened on processors with AVX2; on older ones (for example a Core i3-2120) it showed a white window and closed with error 0xC000001D (issue #12). The package now also carries a compatibility version (CodeVeronicaPort_SSE4.exe, _US_SSE4.exe, _JP_SSE4.exe), built for SSE4.1. You still open Code Veronica.exe as always: the port checks the processor when it starts and, when AVX2 is missing, opens the compatibility version by itself. There is nothing to choose.
- Covered: Intel Core 2nd and 3rd generation (Sandy Bridge, Ivy Bridge), Core 1st generation (Nehalem, Westmere), older Xeons (X5650/X5670, E5 v1/v2), AMD FX. The minimum is SSE4.1 (Intel since 2008); without it the port now explains this in a message instead of closing.
- Speed depends on the processor. The game uses several cores at once in the heavy 3D cutscenes, so a 2-core processor can drop frames there.
- With AVX2 nothing changes: the same executables, the same speed.
Discord status: with the Discord app open on your PC, your profile shows Playing RE Code Veronica X PS3 Recomp PC, with the version (EU/US/JP), the play time and a button to the port’s page. It can be turned off in Advanced → Show on Discord. Without Discord open, nothing happens.
Japanese version with a paid license (issue #32): the Japanese release exists in two editions under the same NPJB00135: a free-licence one and a paid one whose EBOOT.BIN needs a .rap, like EU and US. The launcher assumed every Japanese copy was free, showed “Not needed” and failed with “Could not decrypt EBOOT.BIN”. It now reads the license from the EBOOT.BIN: the paid edition shows the license field to pick your .rap; the free edition is unchanged.
Graphics card: the port still needs a card with DirectX 12. The Intel HD 4600 (built into 4th-generation Core processors) freezes on the first frame; this is under investigation.
For people who build the port from the source code: the repository now builds from any folder; one command, tools/cv_make_spu.py, generates the whole SPU folder (a regenerated folder used to end in a black screen); the FFmpeg DLLs are included; the README has winget commands to install the build tools; and the Portuguese text works in a build run from the repository. The same cellPad.c include fix was also made independently in the fork by zedhqx4.
Previous improvements are retained, including the optional HD texture pack (separate download, link below).

These builds compiled successfully for EU/US/JP, normal and compatibility. All six executables (EU, US and JP, normal and compatibility) were started through the launcher and reached the game at 30 FPS, and a normal executable sent down the compatibility path started the _SSE4 one by itself. The compatibility version was also run under Intel’s SDE emulator: as a Sandy Bridge processor, the normal executable switched to _SSE4 on its own; as a processor without AVX, _SSE4 ran for 4 minutes with no invalid instruction. It has not yet been played on a real processor without AVX2, so reports are welcome (issue #12). The paid Japanese edition could not be tested here; the free one works as before. This remains a work in progress; a full playthrough on every setup is not verified.
