|
|
wxWidgets line, frozen at 1.6.0. Emulation is split across separate plugin
|
|
binaries loaded at runtime: GSdx, Spu2-X, LilyPad, cdvdGigaherz, DEV9ghzdrk,
|
|
USBnull and FWnull. Default BIOS folder is bios/ under the user documents
|
|
directory.

|
BIOS selection lists every file in the folder with a *.* mask and keeps the
|
|
ones whose romdir carries a RESET entry followed by a readable ROMVER, which
|
|
supplies the version, the zone letter and the build date. Neither size nor
|
|
hash is checked; the length test that would reject small images is commented
|
|
out. A missing or zero-length image raises BiosLoadFailed.

The three companion ROMs derive from the selected BIOS path. Each extension
|
|
is first appended to the full name, then substituted for the existing one, so
|
|
a BIOS at scph39001.bin is followed by scph39001.bin.rom1 then scph39001.rom1.
|
|
A missing companion is logged and skipped, and a read error is downgraded to a
|
|
warning. Every read is truncated to its destination region: 256 KB for rom1,
|
|
512 KB for rom2, 1.75 MB for erom.

|
|
|
|
The nvm and mec companions follow the same naming rule and are written with
|
|
defaults when absent, so neither is user-supplied: 1024 zero bytes plus an
|
|
iLink id for nvm, the four bytes 03 06 02 00 for mec.

Two entries pair an XOR fold of the whole 4 MB ROM region with a ROMVER
|
|
version to select debugger thread offsets. They gate nothing and cover no
|
|
file on disk.

An IRX image is injected at ROM+0x3C0000 when one is named on the command
|
|
line. The path is whatever the user passes, so there is no fixed file.

Shipped in the distribution tree and read from it: GameIndex.dbf, the
|
|
widescreen patch archive cheats_ws.zip, which is skipped when a cheats_ws
|
|
folder holds the patches, the pcsx2_Main and pcsx2_Iconized catalogs under
|
|
Langs, and the external shader pair shaders/GSdx.fx and
|
|
shaders/GSdx_FX_Settings.ini, off by default.

host.irx sits behind a comment. ps2hw.dat is read only by zerogs and
|
|
zzogl-pg, both gated on EXTRA_PLUGINS, which carries no default and is off,
|
|
and both absent from the Windows solution that builds the release. USBqemu
|
|
ships in the same disused solution and GSdx_legacy is gated on GSDX_LEGACY.
