Campaign progress and the next HUD fidelity checks
An October 15 progress snapshot records a corrected campaign-entry movie fault and the user's report of completing the first campaign mission. It also records several HUD and widescreen Mech Lab issues that still need investigation. This is a rolling development update, not the final day's release report.
Native Remaster: ultrawide views, a broader HUD, and local music
The native MW3 development host gained a faster rendering path, true ultrawide presentation, broader original HUD coverage, and file-backed music. These are development milestones; full-game fidelity and a portable release still need more work.
The native host reaches live menus, Training, and Instant Action
The integrated native host executed the animated menu and live MW3 scenes through Vulkan. User and scripted sessions reached Training and Instant Action, while the separate Vulkan wrapper, launcher, and high-resolution texture work continued alongside recompilation.
