ROCKNIX, EmuELEC, AmberELEC, EmuDeck and RetroDECK records citing a
config now carry the code installing it, whether that keeps a file
already there, and the launch code rewriting its keys. Rescraped at the
pinned revisions.
Records the shipped code never reads are no longer written: EmuELEC's
mame.ini folders (MAME.opt turns paths off), AmberELEC's atari800.cfg
(read only under an option that is off), the six RetroDECK XRoar ROM
lists no machine looks up, and the ROCKNIX melonDS DSi BIOS keys
(DSiExternalBIOSEnable is set by no shipped ini).
Conditions added: ROCKNIX and AmberELEC amiberry kickstarts hold only
outside a WHDLoad --autoload boot, ROCKNIX NanoBoyAdvance exits without
its BIOS, the EmuELEC scummvm.ini copy runs from an action no launch
passes, and the EmuDeck melonDS.toml keys need ExternalBIOSEnable (DS)
or ConsoleType 1 (DSi).
GZDoom collects its IWAD candidates from [IWADSearch.Directories], reads
the support WAD there and the Load files from the IWAD's own folder
(src/d_iwad.cpp:456-476, 593-624, 862-901). RetroDECK lists
RETRODECKROMSDIR/doom there (gzdoom/rd_assets/rd_config/gzdoom.ini:9),
which component_prepare.sh:27 rewrites to $roms_path/doom. The extractor
read only the BIOS placeholder of a preset: it now records every line
naming the BIOS or the roms folder the script rewrites, with that sed
line in its source. $roms_path, whose default is the roms root
(config/retrodeck/retrodeck.json:5), is read as that root.
The profile names IWADSearch.Directories as a pool and lays its IWADs
and their support and Load files out at its top. On RetroDECK the 20
held IWADs land in roms/doom, the 23 others are named missing there.
The root copies stay for prboom and uzdoom, which claim them. No other
platform hands GZDoom that list, so none changes.
RetroDECK listed every component standalone only. Azahar, Cemu, Dolphin,
MAME, melonDS, PCSX2 and PPSSPP also run through RetroArch: RetroDECK/ES-DE
es_systems.xml at 15e1b236 loads <name>_libretro.so beside each standalone
command, and the cores ship whole from the buildbot nightly
RetroArch_cores.7z (retroarch/component_recipe.json:250-262). Their
libretro layouts, Azahar's save-dir files among them, now reach the pack.
The scraper reads each component's prepare, launcher and functions scripts at the components commit the BIOS list comes from, and the presets they copy: the fixed paths set_setting_value writes (melonDS seven, xemu three, Dolphin GBA), the folders handed over, the dir_prep links (LRPS2 pcsx2/bios back to bios/, Dolphin and PrimeHack GC regions under saves/), package copies into bios/, RetroArch core options naming a file (pcsx2_bios, DuckStation per region), XRoar romlists, the PICO-8 exec and the RPCS3 and Vita3K firmware downloads.
platforms/retrodeck.yml is regenerated at fcd0d729: only the launchers section is new.
Six platforms are read from a branch: System.dat, batocera-systems.json, checkBIOS.sh, the MiSTer BiosDB, the RetroPie scriptmodules and the RetroDECK component manifests. Their YAML named the branch, so the native export patched whatever the branch had become since the scrape. Each scraper now resolves the branch head once, reads every file at that commit and writes it into source. The export follows a recorded tarball and a recorded tree as it already followed a raw file URL.
Thirty platform system ids, such as sufami, pokemini, vsmile, and
Recalbox's comma-joined msx1,msx2, matched no system any profile
names, so no core file was attributed to them and --system missed them.
The scraper maps now carry those names, and a test holds every platform
system to a profile system apart from two named folds.
RetroDECK filed coco as tandy-coco and Dragon as dragon-32-64, MiSTer
filed COCO3 as tandy-coco and Recalbox kept its raw ids, so none of
them met xroar's coco, coco3 and dragon64 and its ROMs reached no
system. The scraper maps now agree and a test holds every shared
native id to one system.
Add Atari 800 OS Rev B NTSC (CRC32 0e86d61d, canonical sysrom.c
match) and National FS-5500 disk controller ROM for openMSX.
Remove ROM_400/800_CUSTOM from retrodeck.yml (config slot key with
forward slash in name, not a real file).
Add support for Coleco Adam, Entex Adventure Vision and APF M-1000 BIOS/ROM sets in MAME and MESS metadata (multiple Adam device MCU ROMs and optional FDC/SPI variants, Advision and APF BIOS entries). Update generated metadata across the repo: README coverage numbers and per-platform coverage rows, database generated timestamp and totals (total_files 7245), and various install manifests (notably batocera.json) with new timestamps, adjusted file counts/sizes, SHA1s, repo_path fixes and an added adam_fdc_320kb.zip entry. Also update notes to reflect the new system ROM sets in the emulators entries.
RetroDECK had stale buildbot hash a17e0e01 for scummvm.zip
(from old 9.5MB build, current is 79MB) copied to cpc464.rom.
RomM had same stale hash. Updated to current verified values.
All 8 platforms now 100% OK, 0 untested.
