notes: |
  Build-engine source port derived from EDuke32 and NBlood, maintained
  by the ZDoom team. Runs Duke Nukem 3D, Blood, Shadow Warrior,
  Powerslave/Exhumed, Redneck Rampage, Nam, Napalm, WWII GI through a
  shared Build renderer.

  Engine resource (built via add_pk3):
    raze.pk3   ENGINERES_FILE, fatal if absent
    ref: source/core/version.h:66, source/core/gamecontrol.cpp:1020-1023,
         source/core/initfs.cpp:335-336, wadsrc/CMakeLists.txt:2

  Game detection reads wadsrc/static/engine/grpinfo.txt. Each entry maps
  a size+CRC32 (or mustcontain lump set) to a game id, flags and
  optional `loadgrp` / `loadart` dependencies.
  ref: source/core/gamecontrol.cpp (GrpScan), wadsrc/static/engine/grpinfo.txt

  At least one game's GRP (or equivalent archive) must be present for
  Raze to run. Addons depend on the base game CRC via `dependency`.
