dedup.py removes a copy only when another file has the same SHA-1 and
the same name, keeping the higher-priority path, so resolution by hash
still finds the content. Verified rather than assumed: all 17268
manifest entries ship the same bytes as before, no destination gained
or lost, only the source paths consolidate. Every deleted path's content
is still held elsewhere.
12.1 MB and 48 empty directories go with them. The index and the
published artefacts are regenerated on top.
Four files, each with a verifiable origin.
logo.tga and logo_red.tga come from the loader's own resources/logo.h:
hook.c's fread maps FILE_LOGO_TGA to logoLL or logoLLRed depending on
which path was opened, one array per file, so the extraction is exact.
Both decode as valid RLE TGA at their declared lengths.
lgp.zip and timetrav.zip carry crc 0 in Hypseus and in Daphne upstream,
so MAME vouches for them instead. lgp maps onto MAME's set by base name,
confirmed by the five members whose bytes already agreed, and the four
that were missing came from the same set. timetrav is MAME's timetrv:
tt061891.bin, 262144 bytes, crc a3d44219.
The four Sega fonts stay open, and the profile now says why: the loader
embeds one 128x256 atlas and one metrics table answering all four paths,
so it substitutes for the originals rather than reproducing either.
Sixty-nine of the seventy-one sets Hypseus Singe loads, assembled from
atoms retrieved from public archives and rebuilt with torrentzip under
the member names its source expects.
Every set is anchored: the profile already carried each member with its
CRC32, read from Hypseus' own source, so a candidate is either an exact
match or discarded. Sixty-seven verified that way. For gpworld and
firefoxa, Hypseus declares crc 0 and gives no anchor, so MAME's recipe
for the same game vouched for the bytes instead: 17/17 and 6/6.
lgp and timetrav stay out. Hypseus declares crc 0 for both, MAME covers
only 5 of lgp's 9 members and has no timetrav at all, so nothing can
vouch for them and half-verified is not verified.
The six Lindbergh font and logo files gain has_builtin: true. hook.c
serves them from resources/logo.h and resources/font.h unless built-ins
are disabled, so they are not a gap the collection can close.
bios/Sega/Triforce/.variants/segaboot.gcm was never a SegaBoot image:
its header reads "(C) 1999-2001 Nintendo" and it matches Redump's
"Triforce (ARCADE BOOTROM)". crediar's Dolphin fork reads the IPL from
GC/<region>/IPL_TRI.bin and SegaBoot from Triforce/segaboot.gcm, two
separate paths, so it moves to GC/USA/IPL_TRI.bin.
segaboot.gcm.e475c7dc is SegaBoot v3.11, the sha1 emulators/triforce.yml
already declared with no local file.
spec128.zip.1a524bfa is rebuilt from the FinalBurn Neo ZX Spectrum
recipe and roms already held, closing one of the pinned archives listed
as unobtainable.
Four archives carried member names no MAME version uses. Each is decided
against MAME 0.289 at the revision the profiles cite:
manager.zip 1 -> 01 crvision.cpp:957
sys573.zip 700a01(gchgchmp).22g -> , ksys573.cpp:3575
cedmag.zip Magnet-Master-VID-E03.BIN cedar_magnet.cpp:1040
advision.zip b225__/b8223__ prefixes cut advision.cpp:456,459
Content is untouched: every member keeps its crc32 and size. The
archives are rebuilt with torrentzip so their bytes depend only on their
contents, which is the repository convention (51 of 60 sampled archives)
and what two of these four already were.
Batocera, RetroBat and RetroDECK pin the older naming, so the upstream
archives stay verbatim under .variants/ and resolve_local_file serves
each layer the copy it expects.
cdos20.rom (Cumana DOS 2.0), yados.rom (YA-DOS 0.5a),
dragonfly-1.3.rom (Ikon Ultra Drive v1.3) from World of
Dragon Archive and CCHDD GitHub. delta-premier.rom variant.
mameinfo.dat for MAME 2000/2003/2003-Plus game info.
Add BIOS files for CLK (Apple II, Mac, Atari ST, Enterprise, MSX,
Commodore, Thomson, PC, Acorn), FBNeo (CPS3 redearthn/sfiii2h),
and QEMU variants. Sources: Asimov mirror, MAME chip extraction,
86Box, Theodore, XRoar upstream, official QEMU repo.
Fix cross-reference in verify.py to group archived files by archive
unit instead of reporting individual ROMs as missing. Add path-based
fallback for descriptive names. Update generate_pack.py extras to
use archive name for resolution. 6 new E2E tests.
MISSING required: 321 -> 6 (zero false positives).
shared groups in _shared.yml: np2kai, keropi, quasi88, kronos, ep128emu
with source references for each subdirectory requirement.
libretro_scraper: CORE_SUBDIR_MAP applies subdirectory prefixes at
generation time (np2kai/, keropi/, dc/). EXTRA_SYSTEMS adds QUASI88.
SYSTEM_SHARED_GROUPS injects includes for kronos/np2kai/keropi.
new BIOS: CPS3 (23 ZIPs), Cannonball OutRun (40 ROMs), PCem PC BIOS
(73 files), VICE Commodore ROMs, Spectrum ZIPs, dc_bios.bin, X1 fonts.
new emulator profiles: redream, melonds_ds, lrps2 with doc vs source
notes. platforms/README.md documents shared groups architecture.
New files: OpenTyrian data (11), Cave Story (2), SeaBIOS,
VGA BIOS, OpenSBI, Cromwell, xbox_hdd, Sega CD Model 2 (3),
NGP Color BIOS, Pentagon 128p-1.rom, X1 font, BK TERAK.
cross_reference.py: basename + case-insensitive lookup.
