The profile said "No external BIOS files are required or loaded by this
core" and carried an empty file list. The core reads up to eleven names
from the system directory today.
Staging left retro_load_game for stage_cart_boot_rom, which tries a file
before the embedded array. BT_CUSTOM, a value the enum did not carry
when this was profiled, searches six cart boot ROM names across three
directories; BT_M_SERIES tries jagboot_m.rom. Both need 0x20000 bytes,
the size copied to jagMemSpace + 0xE00000.
The Jaguar CD BIOS is the larger addition: three name groups over five
directories, accepted at exactly 0x40000 bytes and recognised by CRC32
against 687068D5 retail and 55A0669C developer. The group order follows
virtualjaguar_cd_bios_type, then generic names, then the other type,
since a lone file of the wrong type still beats the embedded copy.
None is required, every path falls back to an embedded array. What they
buy is the real dump instead of the reimplementation. The collection
holds the cart boot ROM under boot.rom; both CD BIOSes and jagboot_m.rom
are absent and now show as gaps rather than as nothing at all.
240 file-level entries used notes: instead of the canonical note:
field. verify.py and cross_reference.py only read note:, so these
were silently ignored.
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).
