mariani, nuance and pcsx2x6 move upstream_commit to their fork base,
dolphin-mmjr2, hatari and jl-mod to upstream HEAD now that their prose
reads in the right tree, boom3 and bsnes-jg record the upstream they are
read against, and groovymame's source pin follows its fork.
aps3e, emucorex, ax360e, snes9x-explus vendor an upstream tree at that
commit, nes-emu and higan_sfc_balanced synced to it, yaps2, flycast-dojo
and supermodel-dojo carry upstream up to it, and AmberELEC builds
mupen64plus's core there. Each reason is in the profile's notes.
The pins moved past a newer release: dice v0.4.3, geargrafx 1.8.4,
gearlynx 1.2.35, izapple2 v2.5.0, lightspark 0.10.0 (its CMake version
at the pin). The drhelius cores take their version from git describe,
dice and izapple2 carry none, so the release tag is the version.
The build workflow downloads it from SourMesen/librashader's nightly
release on every build, so no shipped copy has a fixed hash: the entry
joins the recorded unidentified bundled files.
RetroPie builds the master tip (RetroPie scriptmodules/emulators/px68k.sh:15 at 46128cd2). The one commit since e29ce400 bounds string copies in SDL/winui.c; no file is read differently.
Batocera 43.1 builds RapidEdwin08 a0b5a033 (libretro-genesisplusgx-expanded.mk:7), not 181e8f93. Both carry the same core/, libretro/ and Makefile.libretro trees as the pin dea3528.
The new crc32 values in d_neogeo.cpp belong to game sets (doubledd, pulstarae, kizuna4p); neogeoRomDesc is unchanged and fbneo_hash_scraper reports no updated entry. The coleco refs pointed at the BurnDriver struct and now cite cv_colecoRomDesc (d_coleco.cpp:1061-1064).
ebe8322 adds the Video System PSX driver with its coh1002v root set (src/drivers/zn.c:4062-4068, 4692). The new hashes in pgm.c and the other drivers belong to game sets (killbldp, kovsh, svg, oldsplus...); the pgm BIOS ROM_START is unchanged.
Edge e569a1a runs original Xbox games through XeFu (src/xenia/emulator.cc:748-768, 882-895): xbox.xex and the xefu*.xex builds from an Xbox 360 Compatibility folder, read from xefu/ under the storage root. config.bin at emulator.cc:2339 is written by XeFu there. The libretro tree f23c14c carries the same code. Refs recaled to e569a1a.
The firmware name refs cited lines of an older revision of
RealtekFirmwareLoader.cpp. Each now names its return in
GetFirmwareName (410-448), the device table is 76-207.
Upstream changes are nv2a rendering, CI and a GitHub issue menu item.
The -config_path parsing in ui/xemu.c moved up nine lines. Libretro
pin unchanged, already the HEAD of xemu-libretro.
Games.xml gained the pro1000 set (Real3D Pro-1000 firmware loaded as
a ROM set) and a vs298 CRC fix, so its hash moves. Main.cpp and
GameLoader.cpp refs recaled to the new lines. Libretro pin unchanged.
The standalone now loads librashader.dll or librashader.so for shader
presets and ships it in Dependencies.zip (librashader_ld.h:45-88).
Standalone pin to 4b8a196, Mesen2 to b9fa69d. SGB1's UseSgb2 ref
names the standalone line, the notes name the libretro tree.
Recalbox 10.1.1 builds the standalone from tag v1.1 (rb5000.mk:7),
the revision source_commit already names. The libretro pin is the
HEAD of libretro-rb5000.
Upstream dropped the Emscripten paths, the pak checks are unchanged.
The old pin already sat between v2.86.0 and v2.86.1, so core_version
was behind; HEAD contains v2.86.2.
VR builds mount base_vr/ over base/ and d3xp_vr/ over d3xp/ when
boom3_vr_enable is on, and warn when base_vr/pak399.pk4 is absent
(libretro.cpp:4313-4335). Pin moved to efe140c, notes recaled from
bare basenames to their repository paths.
Upstream added tape autoload and PCG-8100 audio, which read no ROM.
load_system_file moved to libretro.c:977, the ROM table is the same.
Comment citations now carry their repository path.
A disc image runs the configured System Card ROM and refuses to load
without one (mainloop/pce.rs:29-50). The default Arcade Card wants a
v3.0 ROM. Pin moved to d41e2d9, core_version 0.14.1 as Cargo.toml
already read at the old pin.
Port changes are VR, DSU and audio options, no file loading. The
SegaBoot refs now cite the libretro lookup (Sys, then User/Triforce)
at AMMediaboard.cpp:500-514; upstream to e1d35f6, CommonPaths.h same.
bennugd, eden, play, scummvm and uzem cited files their repositories have
since moved (libretro.c into libretro/, fs_paths.h into src/common/fs/,
uzem.cpp into oldsrcs/). Lines unchanged. scummvm's upstream_commit is
its fork base e0ddc60.
The note citations hold under three source pins; read again at 583f0e9 they land on the acgame loader, the BIOS scan and the resource reads, recorded as prose_written_at. GameDatabase.cpp:39, Patch.cpp:117, SDLInputSource.cpp:24 and linux_build_qt.yml:129 read the same in the fork, the tree RetroBat ships.
libretro/Omicron master is msx80/Omicron aaaa2f1 (2020-09-29) plus .gitlab-ci.yml and the core Makefile. Upstream HEAD 49e4e05 is 168 commits later and moved the libretro frontend files the notes cite.
upstream_commit 3353efd3 is the higan v106r25 release commit nSide synced with (Emulator::Version 106.25). gitlab higan HEAD 00684d2 is a later higan and stays out.
Boot.cpp:408-442, WiimoteEmu.cpp:156-165, NWC24Config.cpp:17 and TitleDatabase.cpp:54-58 land on their code in Dolphin-MMJR2 at 4d0fdb8 and miss it in dolphin-emu at 4ff214c: every citation reads the fork.
Profile the rommgr.cpp table at 376b22c: 208 entries for CPU boards,
freezer cartridges, SCSI and IDE controllers, Picasso IV, x86
bridgeboards, CD32 FMV and the CD32/CDTV images the scan identifies
by SHA-1. A CPU board without its ROM does not start, so the A1200
and A4000 accelerator quickstarts need these files.
The bulk advance moved upstream_commit to upstream HEAD. On freej2me_plus,
hakux, kronos, mesen-s, np2kai and snes9x it was, and still is, the
merge base of upstream with the fork's pin (GitHub compare), the revision
the port carries. ax360e, nes-emu and snes9x-explus vendor an upstream
tree whose commit their notes name.
The zn.c rewrite filed the Time Warner and Raizing BIOS sets under new
ids zn1-atari and zn1-raizing, which have no name and stop
generate_site. Every other MAME profile files them as atari-zn1 and
eighting-zn1 (Raizing is Eighting's label).
The 2.43 tag sits on main2 (b5ae1af, changelog ending at 1.38) while
the 2.43.apk asset carries main4's changelog and RPCS3 20071-1f080485.
The two branches share merge base d4622157. The pin c6ca182 already
names the released tree.
Music tracks are now looked up through the audio language chain,
music/<language>/ first and then music/, and a catalog row may list
alternate names (backend_files.c:108-134). Same level, FMV and track
names.
Upstream split the sound code into crates (soundblaster, sc55, mt32,
gus). The AWE32 and Sound Canvas tables are unchanged. Adds the
optional 128 KB Verite board ROM that verite_rom names, which the
emulated RISC reads in place of the image the emulator builds
(src/bus/verite.rs:45-71).
