yuzu, eden, Ryujinx and Azahar declare the data directories their code
reads, so EmuDeck's links place their keys in bios/<emulator>/keys and
leave the 3DS NAND files it links nowhere named, not at the BIOS root.
A platform that binds part of a standalone layout leaves the entries no
binding covers in a folder outside the BIOS tree: they are no longer
packed at the BIOS root, and the manifest names them (root: emulator,
outside_bios_folder). A launcher that executes a profile's file binds
the program folder: in the BIOS tree, below the roms directory a registry
entry names (root: roms, installed into the folder holding the BIOS
folder), or nowhere a pack reaches. A moved entry resolves by its own
path as well as by its destination.
uae4all gains kick.rom and rom.key in its working directory and loses a
not_bundled_on that named Recalbox, which runs uae4all-rpi. lexaloffle
declares that its programs read beside their executable, lists the
Windows build RetroBat runs and the pico8_dyn ROCKNIX runs on x86_64.
ROCKNIX's start_pico8.sh runs pico8_64 or pico8_dyn from
/storage/roms/pico-8 and RetroBat's Pico8 generator runs pico8.exe from
its pico8 emulator folder. Both are recorded as exec records, read from
the scripts at the revisions the platform files pin.
standalone_bindings maps each subfolder of a standalone layout to the
folder of the BIOS tree a platform's links and passed directories give
it, followed through a working directory. platform_layouts applies it,
so the pack, the manifest, verify and slots read one destination.
uae4all paths are now what the emulator reads, kickstarts/<name> below
its working directory, and RetroPie still receives them in amiga/.
RetroPie starts UAE4All2 with pushd $md_inst, the directory whose
kickstarts folder it links to BIOS/amiga. The scriptmodule reader now
emits that working directory as it does for DraStic.
Batocera's lexaloffleGenerator runs bios/pico-8/pico8 and
bios/voxatron/vox, raises when the binary is missing or not
executable, and puts each folder on LD_LIBRARY_PATH. The new
extractor records both per system from the AST, with the lines
of batocera-43.1 that say it.
lwmp.zip from the project's downloads (sha1 1145464c), 2308 files read by path. Equal files sit in one folder per rotation, so the tree is kept out of dedup.
Traced runs of the 0.2.7 binaries, the raspi readme and the manual: settings, controller maps, favourites and the Voxatron cart list and player profile, all written by the program. Binary notes say what each build links.
- The installer speaks without "you": the first screen asks "Where
to install?", rows read "Copy the BIOS files from an old card or a
folder", a close match reads "Close matches: ...". The handheld
launchers and their port text follow, and the pronoun guard no
longer lists any installer message.
- A setup that runs as an app opens on its one-line command, the
folder table after it; a setup that runs on its own device keeps
the network folder first, which its ZIP route needs.
- The home steps say what to do: "Its page gives one line to copy",
"Paste it, press Enter".
