RetroDECK sets LRPS2's pcsx2_bios to scph10000.bin. The record names
the frontend, so the core is the one whose entry reads that setting.
Its entry is a placeholder, and the name spells a model: the held dump
the catalogues describe as SCPH-10000 goes in under that name in the
entry's directory, primaries first, then the earliest Redump revision
(ps2-0100j-20000117).
A launcher name that a reader's profile entry declares unsourceable is
no file left to find. Its row carries the reason and both reports
print it under its own count, never mixed with the names to acquire.
ROCKNIX's Amiberry configs pass kick34005.A500.rom and
kick40068.A1200.rom, Amiberry's names for Kickstart 1.3 and 3.1 with
.rom appended. Amiberry opens the path as given and boots AROS without
it, so the pack now ships the held ROM under the launcher's name.
emuelec_launchers.py reads emuelecRunEmu.sh and the scripts and
configs it starts at the tag batocera-systems is read at (v4.8): 36
records for RetroArch, retrorun, freej2me, MAME, PICO-8, Flycast,
Amiberry, DuckStation, Yabasanshiro, jzIntv, Mupen64Plus, Hatari,
AdvanceMAME, ScummVM, Dolphin and the MIDI synths.
A search a launcher stops at the first held name of is filled, and a
copy from the platform's own package or script brings its own file:
neither is a name the collection lacks. A launcher that writes its
file into the setting a profile entry is read from (config_key) now
receives that entry's held file under its own name, in the report and
in the pack.
A list naming retroarch now takes the libretro profiles whose built_by names the platform: ROCKNIX ships yabadabadoo with its RetroArch and named it nowhere, so its files never reached the ROCKNIX pack. Only change across the registry: rocknix + yabadabadoo. Also quotes the installer's current unproven-drive message.
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.
- 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".
A folder under the checkout is as long as the checkout's own path. From a deep clone the screen broke it after a separator, as it should, and eight tests looked for it on one line.
The game-data tap test waited on the bare RetroBIOS: title, which the
screen before Confirm already showed, then pressed Enter only if one
settle had drawn Confirm. The runner drew it later and the install
never started. It now waits for the Confirm title and presses Enter.
llms.txt now gives the package commands, the plan as JSON events from
--dry-run --events, the exit codes and the plan, consent, act pattern
with --yes. Tests hold each fact to install.py and to the exit code table
of the installer page.
Every archive has a recipe in recipes/archives.json, and no page a user
reads said so. A short reference page says what a recipe is, how to
rebuild one archive and what exact and canonical mean. Its counts and the
README line are counted from the recipe file at each build.
The README gains a row of four badges: PyPI version, Python versions,
the Validation workflow on main and the license. Tests hold the badges,
the counts and the page's command.
The events transcript on the installer page is a --check run that finds
files missing. Since November such a run ends on 3, as the Exit status
table says, and the sample still showed 1.
Dependabot moved uv in pyproject.toml alone, while validate.yml and
CONTRIBUTING kept 0.12.9. Both pins move together, and a test now
fails when a package pinned in both carries two versions.
--fetch also exported and stopped on the absent dist/truth before any
download, so CI skipped every exporter fidelity case and tolerated the
step. --refresh-cache only downloads: the step can no longer fail
unseen.
Each change records a fact the data no longer states:
- ROCKNIX 20261101 dropped the AetherSX2 package, so the install box
names KNULLI alone.
- RetroBat no longer pins an md5 on ar_bios.zip for the Arcadia, so no
file is held for emerson-arcadia-2001 and its UNLINKED entry is gone.
- sega-model1 holds only the model1io and model1io2 device sets, filed
under Arcade > Arcade and Arcade > MAME, with no section of its own.
- The Sega page gained Model 2 and new Chihiro and Hikaru files on the
same card layout: its word ceiling is measured again at 3545.
build_pypi.py stages install.py, the launcher, __main__.py, README and
LICENSE, then runs uv build with flit_core 3.12.0 pinned and
SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH set from install.py's commit. Adds python -m retrobios,
the PyPA classifiers, keywords and project URLs. CI installs uv.
Search Console reported emulators/vba_m/ as not found: an alias
profile has no page, and only the names in a profile's cores: list
were redirected. Each of the 21 alias profiles now redirects to the
page of the profile it names.
- The installer says "Every file on the list is in place." where it
said "Everything is in place.": a check covers the files the
collection holds, and the required ones it lacks follow.
- The FAQ, first install, legal and home pages state only what the
code shows (PlayStation 1 and Saturn run without a BIOS on some
emulators, save files are never touched, records are added).
- MinUI and MyMinUI show their own boot logos, and the Android,
Linux handheld and iPhone tiles show the Android robot, Tux and a
plain device icon, each credited in sources.json.
- Each Markdown copy, llms.txt and llms-full.txt name the commit
they were built from, version.json the current one, and the
answering rules tell assistants to fetch a stale copy again.
- The deploy lists the pages whose words changed (digests.json) and
posts them to IndexNow once the site is live.
Each claim in the README and the wiki now matches the code or data it
describes: line citations counted as such (93%), closed-source profiles
named, severity tied to the check mode, installs limited to files the
collection holds, and the demo labelled as a demonstration card.
