|
Community fork of Mednafen's Lynx module (itself based on Handy by
|
|
K. Wilkins) for libretro. Loads lynxboot.img from the system directory
|
|
at game load time (libretro.cpp:191). CRom constructor reads exactly
|
|
512 bytes (rom.cpp:50-78). If the file is missing or undersized, the
|
|
ROM array is filled with 0x88 (DEFAULT_ROM_CONTENTS) and the core
|
|
continues without error, but games will not boot without the real boot
|
|
ROM. No hash validation is performed on the BIOS at load time.
|
|
The cart database in cart.cpp includes the BIOS CRC32 0x0d973c9d for
|
|
identification purposes, not validation.
|
|
Upstream Mednafen throws an exception if the BIOS is missing or
|
|
undersized; the libretro port silently degrades. Upstream supports
|
|
custom palette loading (lynx.pal); the libretro port does not.
