WALKSTUF 3 on PS1 at night: Johnny mid-stride on the left side of the island, jogging in front of the palm tree.
WALKSTUF 3 on PS1, captured during the v0.8.4-ps1 chapter-select grind. Johnny mid-stride; the exercise-loop gag. The caption audit's "jogs around the island" line was originally attached to WALKSTUF 1 — on-PS1 playback showed WALKSTUF 1 is actually the yacht-party-and- pass-out beat, and the jog gag belongs here. See the FAQ Q on caption-vs-scene-title divergence.

Validated 2026-05-04. Visual + audible signoff on commit f2519a0c2; high-tide nighttime route, packs WALK3.FG2 / WALK3LOW.FG2 already on disc, no rework needed.

What this scene is

Johnny jogs around the island, doing laps — the exercise loop. Confirmed by direct on-PS1 playback observation while capturing the chapter-select thumbnail; the earlier “walk transition” caption-mapping was vague (this is also where the audit’s “jogs around the island” caption actually belongs — WALKSTUF 1 was misattributed to the jogging gag when it’s actually the yacht-party-and-pass-out beat).

How this scene gets validated

The same way every scene does: under the FISHING 1 bar.

A host-side Johnny Reborn capture/export pass produces a base-diff .FG2 foreground pack and a JSONL of sound events. The PS1 build replays that pack at native resolution through every variant the original game randomized between (night, low-tide, holiday overlays, raft-stage progress where applicable). The regtest harness checks that the visuals come out frame-identical and the SFX cues land on the same ticks. Once that holds across all applicable variants, the scene moves to validated and a row turns green in the ledger.

Notable runtime history

WALKSTUF 3 is one of the four canonical caption-mapping mismatches the v0.8.4-ps1 chapter-select grind caught. The original audit attached “jogs around the island” to WALKSTUF 1, but watching every pack play on hardware showed WALKSTUF 1 is the yacht-party-and-pass- out beat — the jogging gag is here. The chapter-select-grind retrospective walks through the named mismaps and how the on-PS1 loop surfaced them.
