The emulated JogCon kept its motor command as device state only. With
game.toml [controller] jogcon_force_feedback = true, a presented JogCon's
motor byte (command nibble + strength) now drives a host wheel's SDL haptics:
commands 1 / 2 a constant force signed by direction and scaled by strength,
any other non-stop command a centring spring. Only pads whose haptic device
supports constant or spring effects are driven, so gamepads are untouched.
jogcon_force_feedback_invert flips the turn direction (not checked on JogCon
hardware). SIO keeps the strength nibble beside the command
(sio_get_pad_jogcon_motor). PSX_RUMBLE_TRACE logs the commands, headless too.

Verifies the four PS1 semi-transparency modes, set-mask, mask check and
texel STP at 4x internal resolution with PGXP depth on and off, directly
and on the render thread, against the PS1 formulas and the software
rasterizer (new gl_blend_accuracy_test).
Finding: with the historical surface bases (fills and texels stored as
k*255/31, everything else as k*8) single-layer blends are off by one 5-bit
step in places (1312 of the test's checked pixels, e.g. B+F/4 over a fill).
[video] accurate_blending = true stores every VRAM write as k*8 so GL's
8-bit blend truncated by the readback is exactly the PS1 arithmetic; whites
of fills/texels then present as 248 like uploads already do. Default off.

Filter mode 3 magnifies textures with an edge-directed rule after Hyllian's
xBR (written from the published description, no code reused): for the
texel corner nearest a sample, weighted YUV colour distances over a 5x5
neighbourhood decide whether an edge runs along the corner's diagonal; if
so the corner is cut with an anti-aliased boundary and takes the closer
side neighbour. Flat areas, straight edges, gradients, cutouts and 1:1 draws
stay nearest. Selectable from [video] texture_filtering, settings.toml,
PSX_TEXTURE_FILTER and the new texture_filter TCP command. Default unchanged.

Enhancement arenas (GPU DMA aperture, Expansion-1 mod memory) were untracked, so Crash widescreen drew every vertex native with no depth. Adds depth stats/clear causes to pgxp, depth to pgxp_tri_ring, input_route_start at_frame, integer number keys in game.toml.

[video] fmv_chroma_smoothing = true makes the OpenGL present of a 24-bit
(MDEC) frame keep each sample's luma and take its chroma from a [1 2 1]
tent over the 3x3 source pixels, hiding the 2x2 colour blocks of 4:2:0
video without softening luma. Pairs with the existing fmv_filter upscale.
Guest VRAM/MDEC output untouched; 15-bit presents and the default unchanged.

[video] texture_lod = "mipmap" emulates mip levels for PS1 texture pages,
which are decoded per fetch from VRAM and so have no GL mip chain: the
screen-space UV footprint of a minified, proven-3D primitive is box-averaged
(opaque texels of the fragment's STP class only), and anisotropic_filtering
(1..16) spreads that many taps along the footprint's major axis. Every tap
clamps to the primitive's UV bounds or texture window, so packed atlases
never bleed. The mode rides in the textured batch's filter key; off (the
default), sprites/HUD and magnified textures are unchanged.

dynamic_resolution_min = "display" (game.toml, settings.toml,
PSX_DYNRES_MIN) floors the controller at the selected internal resolution
without the supersample factor, so with supersample > 1 it only trades
supersampling and never renders below the output. psx_dynres_floor_scale
in internal_resolution.h, tested in test_internal_resolution. OpenBIOS
emitter stamp regenerated (config_loader changed).

[video] antialiasing_mode = "off" | "fxaa" | "fxaa_hq" (PSX_AA_MODE)
filters the composed game image after the game quad and before hold-last
capture, OSD and swap; guest VRAM, readbacks and the Smooth motion /
frame generation sources are untouched. Off (default) never runs the pass
and is byte-identical to master.
[video] supersample = 1.0..4.0 (PSX_SUPERSAMPLE) multiplies the internal-
resolution target (Match display or a line preset), so the existing area
resolve does ordered-grid SSAA; dynamic resolution takes it as its ceiling.
Debug server: post_aa reads/sets the mode live. Real-GL fixture
gl_post_aa_test; supersample checks in test_internal_resolution.

[video] frame_generation_method = "redraw" (default) | "reprojection",
PSX_FRAME_GEN_METHOD overrides; replaces frame_generation_redraw.
- Redraw runs and allocates nothing of reprojection: no snapshots, depth
image, programs, HUD matching; the cost-spike clamp and the dynamic
resolution load formula apply to reprojection only. Switching to redraw
or turning Smooth motion off frees what reprojection held.
- Uniform locations and PSX_RP_DEBUG/PSX_RP_NOPREV are read once with the
programs.
- Each method gets its own breaker settings, set again on a switch;
frame_gen_hold takes a kind (step down / over budget), not a string.
- The warp's depth is cleared before the cars are drawn (PGXP depth tested
them LEQUAL against it).
- The warp restores the renderer's texture bindings on units 1 and 2 and
never leaves a sampler on texture 0.
- gl_frame_gen_test: redraw asserts nothing of reprojection ran or was
allocated (its phase 0.5 digest matches master's); reprojection runs
check the warp's pixels on a parallax pan (vs the redraw of the pair, no
holes, HUD exact), real frames unchanged, and no warp depth with PGXP.
- FRAME_GENERATION.md: the key, the default, reprojection and its
R4-tuned object rules.

Each in-between frame warps the newer real frame's finished image by the
in-between camera instead of drawing the scene again:
- per game frame: a snapshot of the list's finished image (taken when the
list closes; R4 flips to a buffer before drawing into it, so the live
surface is not a stable source) and a 2x native image of camera 1/z,
pixel kind and view rasterized from the recorded triangles in painter
order (world / car-or-dome / 2D-HUD-small-view);
- per in-between frame: one grid draw (a vertex per native pixel) that
unprojects world pixels with their depth, moves them by the view's
in-between camera (fg_view_affine) and samples the snapshot at full
resolution, nearest wins; cells over depth edges or non-world pixels are
left to the snapshot underneath; 2D/HUD pixels are put back; cars are
drawn again at their own in-between position.
Measured: ~0.3-0.8 ms CPU and ~0.3-2 ms GPU per in-between frame (was 2-4
ms each), A/G/B max out-of-range 0.3-3 %, worst ratio 1.1-1.5.
[video] frame_generation_redraw / PSX_FRAME_GEN_REDRAW=1 keeps the old path.
Planner/holds: dynres 'over budget' no longer stops cheap reprojected
frames; guest-late trips ignored while they are cheap; allocation and
shader compilation are kept out of the cost estimate. frame_gen JSON:
rp_ms, rp_zn, reprojected, np (why a flip planned none); debug buffer 4 KiB.

[video] pgxp_seam = "off" | "fine" | "wide" (default off; PSX_PGXP_SEAM,
PSX_PGXP_SEAM_PX). Above 1x, a vertex that sits on a neighbour's edge only to
the PS1's precision leaves a hairline crack. Opaque 3D triangles move each
edge outward (mitred, limited at sharp corners): fine = 1 output px, wide =
half a native px; UVs, colour, q and SZ extrapolate with the barycentric
coordinates of the new corners so textures do not slide.

[video] pgxp_color_correction (default off; PSX_PGXP_COLOR overrides). Gouraud
colour on PGXP 3D triangles interpolates with 1/SZ; textured triangles with
perspective UVs share their w. The flag rides in the per-vertex PGXP code the
depth buffer already carries (sz + 65536).

[video] pgxp_depth_buffer (default off; PSX_PGXP_DEPTH overrides) and
pgxp_depth_threshold. gpu.c hands the GL backend each triangle's GTE SZ when
all three vertices are dataflow-precise (gr_set_depth_triangle); the backend
draws those opaque triangles with a LEQUAL depth test and write. 2D,
unproven, semi-transparent polygons, lines and rectangles never test or
write. Depth mode is a batch key and rides in every high-resolution-window,
native-wide and render-thread replay command. Clears are colourless
depth-only draws through the flat batch: after a drawing-area change or a
fill, and when the average SZ rises by the threshold (4096, as DuckStation).
Generated (Smooth motion) frames draw without depth.

- settings.toml parses [video] vsync = "vrr" and a launcher save writes it
back as "vrr" (was dropped / saved as "on"); every mode round-trips in
video_enhancement_settings_test.
- fg_slots counts the display intervals the clock (fg_clock_phase) fills,
with the same 0.985 phase limit. fg_plan_hz and the dynamic resolution
share use it: 59.94 Hz content on a 60 Hz panel (2.002 intervals) plans
and budgets one in-between frame, as shown, not two.
- The real share read on the emulation thread uses atomics: s_fg_flip_vb,
s_fg_swap_ema and a published copy of the generated-frame cost estimate.
- fg_hud_lerp accepts a match at the 8th 2D triangle of the window.

Variable refresh (G-Sync/FreeSync, ProMotion): present each frame when it is
ready (swap interval 0). Smooth motion targets the panel's maximum refresh at
the current size (psx_sdl_display_max_refresh) and never exceeds it.
PSX_HOST_REFRESH_HZ / PSX_HOST_REFRESH_MAX_HZ simulate a display for headless

Reject negative and >32-bit addr/value/size/mask in guest_cycle_scale_gate

Review of #561. Guest time now has two entry points (psx_cycles.h): the
CPU charge psx_cpu_charge() (instruction base, load fudge/region/completion,
i-cache refills, BIOS HLE costs), which applies [timing] guest_cycle_scale,
and the unscaled device advance psx_advance_cycles() (DMA, idle skips,
mul/div and GTE deadline waits). The emitters' block-mode charges emit
psx_cpu_charge; overlay DLLs accumulate it raw and publish through the
cpu_charge callback (was advance_cycles, same slot) into the same host
function, so nothing is scaled at the DLL boundary. The batched
psx_cyc_charge path, the dirty-RAM interpreter, psx_cyc_readmem, i-cache
refills and bios_hle.c all charge through it. At scale 1 it is exactly
psx_advance_cycles.
Gate in psxrecomp: [timing] guest_cycle_scale_gate, RAM predicates judged
at every VBlank edge (deterministic, works online, no mod needed), plus
psx_mod_set_guest_cycle_scale_gate() in mod_plugins.h for custom logic or
to tie the scale to a mod (guest_cycle_scale_gated = true; every mod
session reset shuts it). The carried fraction and both gate states are a
boot_state section (BS_SEC_GCS, written only when the scale is not 1), so
savestates and the netplay rollback snapshot re-simulate the same cycles.
psx_guest_cycle_scale_gate_test pins tier identity, the gates and rollback
re-simulation against the real psx_cycles.c.
OpenBIOS regenerated (emitter stamp); retail SCPH1001 is not.

No CPU is emulated: recompiled code charges the guest clock a fixed cost
per instruction. guest_cycle_scale = N charges 1/N of it (instruction,
load, mul/div, GTE latencies, overlay DLL batches) while VBlank, timers,
CD, SPU and DMA keep hardware time, so the game never runs out of frame
time. A title constant in game.toml (1 = faithful, 1..64), never a player
setting; guest_cycle_scale_gated applies it only while the title's mod
opens the gate (psx_guest_cycle_scale_gate_open). PSX_GUEST_CYCLE_SCALE
overrides for testing. A scale other than 1 is folded into the netplay
content fingerprint as a safety net.

render_thread, present_thread and frame_generation are read from the
player's settings.toml [video] (over the game.toml default; PSX_* env
still overrides one run and is never saved), written back by
save_user_settings, and round-tripped through the recomp-ui Display rows
when the launcher defines RECOMP_LAUNCHER_HAS_RENDER_PIPELINE. The
pipeline starts once at boot: a first-boot launcher choice applies
immediately, an in-game change is saved and applies at next launch.
Regenerated the OpenBIOS emitter stamp for the config_loader change.

Opt-in under the render thread. Composed frames go to a ring of offscreen
slots at the window's size (binds of framebuffer 0 on the composing context
land on the current slot); a present thread with a second, shared context on
the same window waits on the slot's fence, copies it 1:1 and swaps. The
compositor's wait moves off rendering; the composing side waits only while
every slot is queued or on screen. Falls back to direct swaps when the shared
context or sync objects are unavailable.

[video] frame_generation (opt-in, with render_thread): the render thread keeps
each game frame's replayed draw list, matches the triangles of the last two
(frame_gen.c), and presents in-between frames at the display refresh by
redrawing the newer list into separate surfaces with matched vertices
interpolated. It never runs guest code. Real frames are composed at their
flip and presented after the generated ones, with the same pixels and
order. Generation uses only measured surplus: a plan from render-thread CPU,
generated-frame cost and swap time, a breaker after backpressure or late
guest frames, and a pause while dynamic resolution is over budget. The
render-thread core gains a timed tick hook. Frame-cost queries pause around
generation, so dynamic resolution measures real frames only.
Tests: frame_gen_test, render_thread_test (tick), gl_frame_gen_test (real
frames identical off/on; phase 0/1 equal the endpoints). Docs:
docs/FRAME_GENERATION.md.

[video] render_thread (default false; PSX_RENDER_THREAD=0/1 overrides,
PSX_RENDER_THREAD_FRAMES bounds frames in flight, default 2) starts the
OpenGL render thread at the first vblank, after the context and every
startup GL call exist. Each vblank then closes a frame right after its
present and before wall-clock pacing, so the render thread draws while
the guest waits. Netplay, frame interpolation, Vulkan and software keep
the synchronous path.
TCP: render_thread reports records, frames produced/consumed, presents
and stale presents skipped, sync points with their recent reasons,
backpressure and render busy time. Display-ring and present-image-ring
readers sync first (the render thread fills them).
config_loader is a BIOS emitter input: OpenBIOS fingerprint regenerated
(tools/regen_bios.sh --config bios/OpenBIOS.toml; the C is unchanged).

A step controller (dynamic_resolution.c) lowers or raises the GL internal scale from frame-time telemetry between a floor and the configured ceiling; off unless a title or the player enables it. Tested by dynamic_resolution_test (synthetic load) and the real-GL gl_scale_invariance_test step modes.

Preserve negotiated content and dual-raster pass gates. Retain both fixture assertion sets and HD-off seams. Regenerate both BIOS with actual native emitter. Fix type-only rollback corrections and exclude extra-pad changes from digital-only promote gates.
psx_mod_allow_direct_shortcut(PSX_MOD_SHORTCUT_*) lets a host shortcut
bound to one controller button act on that button alone. Without it a
one-button binding means Select + button, like the legacy encoding, so a
title can default to a one-button binding safely whether or not its mod is
enabled. While allowed (Rewind: while Rewind is enabled) the runtime claims
the host button: it never reaches P1's guest pad, and a claim made while it
is held lasts until release. Allowances clear at every mod session start.
Multi-button bindings behave as before.
game.toml [controller] direct_shortcut / direct_shortcut_button lets the
title default that shortcut to one button and tells the launcher to capture
it as one button (RECOMP_LAUNCHER_HAS_DIRECT_ASSIST_BIND). No title id is
checked anywhere.
Debug: set_input {"layer":"host", buttons, lx..ry, lt, rt} arms a
virtual P1 gamepad that feeds stage 1 of the offline input path (so sources,
title transforms and trigger values see it) and shortcut polling. A plain
set_input override still wins. Headless runs with the layer armed resolve
P1 through the same path and poll Rewind and the fast-forward latch; the
Rewind pause loop keeps the debug endpoint live and runs without a window.
Binding semantics and the claim latch are pure (psx_hotkey_pad.h) and
covered by psx_hotkey_pad_test.

[controller] multitap = false in game.toml keeps offline play at two

override it. Without the key nothing changes.

Reconciled with #470 (PGXP): gpu.c precise vertices take PGXP only under geometry correction and count it, then native-wide edge recovery; the PGXP triangle stat stays PGXP-only. Stubs and tests from both kept; stamps recomputed.
Master moved the textured-dot test stubs into gpu_exec_stubs.inc; the PGXP stubs move there too. pgxp_note_rect_bypass stub takes (int). Stamps recomputed.
