dolphin: gc-ntsc-12.bin mapped to dolphin-emu/Sys/GC/<region>/IPL.bin
ref: DolphinLibretro/Boot.cpp:72-73, CommonPaths.h:139
scraper EXTRA_SYSTEM_FILES dedup now by (name, destination) to allow
same source file at multiple destinations.
retroarch pack: 448 files, 0 missing.
ep128emu: corrected to ep128emu/roms/ per core.cpp:56,59.
fuse: verified in src/compat/paths.c — core searches flat, not fuse/.
docs are wrong on fuse/ prefix. removed from retroarch shared groups.
all refs updated to exact source lines.
added quasi88 alt names, vircon32, MacII.ROM casing.
retroarch.yml regenerated by libretro_scraper with CORE_SUBDIR_MAP
(dc/, np2kai/, keropi/) and shared groups (fuse, kronos, ep128emu,
quasi88, np2kai, keropi). common.py dedup by (name, destination)
to allow same file at flat + subdirectory paths.
ep128emu shared group added for Enterprise system.
RetroArch pack grows from 398 to 428 files.
ref: each subdirectory traced to original emulator source code —
see platforms/README.md and _shared.yml comments.
libretro_scraper: EXTRA_ARCADE_FILES adds namcoc69/70/75, msx, qsound
to arcade system. segasp.zip added to dreamcast-arcade. ep128emu
includes injected for enterprise system.
new profiles: vba_m (GB/GBC/GBA with doc vs source notes),
beetle_gba (Mednafen GBA).
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.
- Extract compute_coverage to common.py (was duplicated)
- Filter test cores from nav and emulator index
- Use absolute URL for README download links
- Consistent page titles with site name suffix
- Safer mkdocs.yml nav rewrite with regex
- Build all_platform_names once in gap analysis
generate_site.py reads database.json + platforms/*.yml + emulators/*.yml
and produces a complete MkDocs Material documentation site:
- Home: stats, downloads, coverage dashboard
- 7 platform pages with per-file verification status
- 60 system pages grouped by manufacturer with cross-references
- 260 emulator pages with source code analysis
- Contributing guide
mkdocs.yml with Material theme, system fonts, auto dark mode.
Generated docs/ in .gitignore (built in CI only).
Identical _fetch_raw() implementation (URL fetch + cache + error handling)
was duplicated in 4 scrapers. Moved to BaseScraper.__init__ with url param.
Each scraper now passes url to super().__init__() and inherits _fetch_raw().
Eliminates ~48 lines of duplicated code.
DRY audit now clean: resolve logic in common.py, scraper CLI in base_scraper,
_fetch_raw in BaseScraper. Remaining duplications are justified (different
list_platforms semantics, context-specific hash computation).
1. fetch_large_file moved to last resort (avoids HTTP before name lookup)
2. fetch_large_file receives first MD5 only (not comma-separated string)
3. verify.py MD5 lookup now splits comma-separated + lowercases (matches generate_pack)
4. seen_destinations simplified to set (stored hash was dead data)
5. Variable suffix shadowing renamed to file_ext
Three fixes in resolve_file():
- Split comma-separated MD5 lists (Recalbox uses multi-hash)
- Add md5_composite check in name fallback (matches verify.py logic)
- Use ".zip" in basename instead of endswith for variant files
Recalbox pack: 346/346 verified (was 332/346 with 14 wrong hash)
Batocera pack: 359/359 verified (was 304/359 with 55 inner missing)
All 5 platforms now produce 0 untested, 0 missing packs.
When resolving by name with no MD5 (existence check), prefer files
NOT in .variants/ directory. Fixes naomi2.zip resolving to the
Recalbox variant (15 files) instead of the primary (21 files).
Also applies to hash_mismatch fallback path.
Recalbox uses uppercase MD5 hashes (6E3735FF...) but database index
is lowercase. Added .lower() to MD5 lookups in resolve_file().
Fixes scph101.bin wrong variant in Recalbox pack (was picking
.variants/ copy instead of primary due to MD5 case mismatch).
Same guard as verify.py: when zipped_file is set, the md5 is for the
inner ROM, not the container ZIP. Direct MD5 lookup resolved to the
standalone ROM file instead of the ZIP parent.
Fixes: ep64.zip/ep128.zip (Enterprise) written as raw ROM data instead
of ZIP archives in Batocera pack. Also fixes any other zipped_file entry
where the inner ROM MD5 matched a standalone file in the database.
Also: update Dinothawr.zip SHA1 in retroarch.yml to match actual file.
verify.py: removed destination dedup - verify counts ALL platform
entries (398 for RetroArch). Pack deduplicates at generation (395).
The delta (3 files: c52/g7400/jopac.bin) is correct behavior.
generate_pack.py: skip build_zip_contents_index() when no zipped_file
entries exist. RetroArch pack: 20s -> 11s (no ZIP scan needed).
build.yml now downloads large-files release assets and copies them
to their bios/ paths (matched via .gitignore) before regenerating
the database. This fixes Batocera showing 675/680 instead of 679/680
on the remote (PS3UPDAT.PUP, dsi_nand.bin, PSVUPDAT.PUP were missing).
Local: Batocera 679/680, all others 100%.
Every profile now has:
- profiled_date: date of source code analysis
- core_version: version from libretro-core-info .info files
- display_name: human-readable name from .info files
260/260 profiles complete. 294/294 libretro cores covered.
Standalone emulators (cemu, rpcs3, xemu, vita3k) versioned manually.
- Added profiled_date field to all 204 existing profiles for update tracking
- Created 56 alias profiles for cores that share BIOS with a parent
(e.g., mednafen_psx -> beetle_psx, fbalpha2012 -> fbneo)
260 total profiles covering all 294 libretro cores (204 unique + 56 alias).
Replace sc3000.rom with BASIC Level III v1.1 (Japan) from MAME 0.270+
software list (SHA1 737a06b3, closer to Batocera target).
Batocera 679/680, Recalbox 346/346, all others 100%.
Fix variant name indexing: files in .variants/ now indexed under
canonical name (naomi2.zip instead of naomi2.zip.da79eca4).
Fix .zip detection for variant paths in verify.py.
Add composite MD5 matching in resolver for ZIP variants.
Add hikaru.zip (MAME 0.285, 6 ROMs) and segaboot.gcm (Triforce)
from archive.org. Both match Batocera expected MD5s.
Batocera 679/680 (1 untested: sc3000 private dump)
Recalbox 346/346 (100%)
- batocera_scraper: fix OrderedDict parsing for ast.literal_eval
- auto_fetch: fix TypeError when sha1/md5 is None
- verify: filter non-ZIP files for zipped_file entries (F2)
- verify: distinguish ZIP read errors from hash mismatches (F5)
- generate_pack: track seen_destinations with source hash (F7)
Batocera ep64/ep128.zip now correctly reported as MISSING
instead of false UNTESTED (resolved to .rom instead of .zip)
Critical: stream large file downloads (OOM fix), fix basename match
in auto_fetch, include hashes in pack grouping fingerprint, handle
not_in_zip status in verify, fix escaped quotes in batocera parser.
Important: deduplicate shared group includes, catch coreinfo network
errors, fix NODEDUP path component match, fix CI word splitting on
spaces, replace bare except Exception in 3 files.
Minor: argparse in list_platforms, specific exceptions in download.py.
When a file exists under multiple SHA1s (e.g. awbios.zip in both
Arcade/ and Sega/Dreamcast/), prefer the candidate whose MD5
matches the expected hash instead of always picking the first.
Batocera: 589 -> 661 verified (+72), RetroBat: 341 -> 343 (100%)
Add 3 rare BIOS variants from TOSEC/archive.org:
- Mega CD v1.00s JP (a3ddcc8483) from Myrient TOSEC
- Sega CD Model 2 v2.00 US (310a9081d2) from Myrient TOSEC
- ps1_rom.bin 4MB PS3-extracted (fbb5f59ec3) from archive.org
EmuDeck: 163/164 (99.4%), 1 unknown hash remains (476d68a9)
All other platforms: 0 missing
