This maintenance release updates the Vita package to 01.03 and fixes the remaining preset-dependent harsh noise and redlining in Subsynth, Modular, and larger projects.

Installation
Download Caustic3Vita-v1.0.2.vpk, transfer it to a homebrew-enabled Vita, and install it with VitaShell. Installing over the existing title preserves ux0:/data/CAUSTIC3/ projects and settings.

Required Vita components:

kubridge.skprx
fd_fix.skprx, unless rePatch is installed
libshacccg.suprx
See the complete installation guide.

Audio fix
Caustic uses Android ARMv7 base AAPCS/softfp, while VitaSDK libm uses VFP registers. Earlier compatibility functions also relied on limited-range approximations. Some presets could therefore receive unstable filter coefficients, immediately redline Caustic machine meters, and produce full-scale scratchy noise.

01.03 replaces those approximations with accurate VitaSDK libm functions behind explicit softfp-to-hardfp ABI bridges. Single- and double-precision trigonometric, exponential, logarithmic, power, rounding, and remainder imports now cross the ABI boundary correctly.

Verification
Previously failing Subsynth presets and larger projects passed on physical Vita hardware.
Packaged eboot matches the hardware-tested eboot byte-for-byte.
Public-tree verification and host path-policy tests passed.
VPK ZIP integrity passed.
ARM disassembly confirms the required core-register/VFP argument and result shuffles.
VPK size: 74755343 bytes

Caustic was created by Rej Poirier / Single Cell Software and is available from the official Caustic 3 page. This port builds on Trackelf’s original wrapper. It was developed and hardware-tested by trappunk (Tennis Rodman) with extensive assistance from OpenAI Codex.
