The site reads no pronoun outside code: the quoted dialog of the notes is now code, and the source_ref annotation says what the dialog names.

Closed-source 3DO and Atari Jaguar emulator by Altmer (Arts-Union), the
|
|
author of FreeDO. This profile reads the build RetroBat installs,
|
|
PhoenixEmuProject.exe 2.8.JAG (x86-64, dated 2023-01-05, sha256
|
|
82298a9db3e0e53ad5ca2c659adecc86c0715d2864012bb84c50e02aecf5db67 inside
|
|
phoenix.7z sha256 8290e1463f94c456...afc7b6), disassembled.
|
|
|
|
Phoenix names no BIOS file. Every dump is registered in phoenix.config.xml
|
|
under a platform and a dump type: BIOS, CD-ROM, FMV-ROM, FONT-ROM and NVRAM
|
|
for 3DO, BIOS and CARTRIDGE for Jaguar. emulatorlauncher rewrites that file
|
|
before each launch, registering the game and, as the BIOS, panafz10.bin for
|
|
3DO or "[BIOS] Atari Jaguar (World).j64" for Jaguar from the RetroBat bios
|
|
folder (emulatorLauncher Generators/Phoenix.Generator.cs:23-95).
|
|
|
|
Each machine declares its dump slots with a flag word. A slot whose flag
|
|
has bit 0 clear is mandatory: with no dump registered there, the launch
|
|
stops on `You must select %1.`. 3DO declares CD-ROM 3, BIOS 0, FONT-ROM 1, FMV-ROM 1 and
|
|
NVRAM 1, Jaguar CARTRIDGE 2 and BIOS 1. QFrontend reads a slot by seeking
|
|
its dump to 0 and reading at most the size the machine asks for, and
|
|
returns -1 when the slot is empty.
|
|
|
|
The 3DO machine is emulated at hardware level (MADAM, CLIO, the CEL engine
|
|
and the ARM CPU) and starts from the BIOS dump, read into the first
|
|
megabyte of a 2 MB ROM area, the FONT-ROM dump into the second, the whole
|
|
area then byte swapped by 32-bit words. The md5 of the BIOS dump is
|
|
compared with two values, the PAL Anvil BIOS a48e6746 and the same image
|
|
with RSA disabled cf11bbb5, and a match is passed to the CLIO setup as the
|
|
PAL flag. The FMV-ROM slot is declared but the machine setup never reads
|
|
it. NVRAM starts from a built-in 0xac-byte image and is then overlaid with
|
|
the NVRAM slot. Two further md5 values (0xb03bd0, 0xb03bf8) are compared
|
|
against the CD-ROM dump and set per game video parameters.
|
|
|
|
Jaguar cartridges run through the boot ROM when one is registered. Without
|
|
one, or for a cartridge with a JAGR header, the machine writes the reset
|
|
vectors itself and starts at the entry address the cartridge holds at
|
|
offset 0x404 (or the JAGR load address). The File menu offers to add a
|
|
header, or a generic header, to a headerless cartridge dump.
