Each platform's own packages were read at the revision our data pins, for every emulator and core it ships: Batocera, Recalbox, RetroPie, ROCKNIX, Lakka, RetroDECK, RetroBat and EmuDeck. Files a package installs where the emulator reads them are recorded with installed_on, and files a release bundles but a package leaves out with not_bundled_on, so each platform's pack brings what its users lack and nothing they already have. The standalone profiles never checked before were held against their releases the same way. Batocera's imame4all is the mame2000 core. The primary neogeo.zip was a 7.7 KB placeholder no platform pins and no pack served: removed, the real dumps stay in .variants.

SDL port of ACE, the Amstrad CPC/Plus emulator written by Philippe Rimauro
|
|
(OffseT) for MorphOS. ACE-DL is built by Edouard Bergé (Roudoudou) from the
|
|
MorphOS sources and released for Windows, macOS, Linux and Raspberry Pi;
|
|
a third port targets Haiku. All three are closed source, the original author
|
|
keeps the sources private, so the entries below were established on the
|
|
official Linux x86-64 builds: file opens traced with strace and
|
|
required/optional decided by removing each file on the 2026-06-03 build, then
|
|
path constants, error strings and plugin keys read again from the 2026/10/16
|
|
build (BNDGEN.tar.gz), which ships the same ROM files byte for byte.
|
|
|
|
Machines are CPC 464, 664 and 6128 plus the Plus range, which boots from a
|
|
cartridge and covers the GX-4000. An operating system is one 32 KB file
|
|
holding the 16 KB firmware ROM followed by the 16 KB BASIC ROM. The AMSDOS
|
|
disc ROM is a separate 16 KB file mapped in slot 7. The upstream MorphOS
|
|
release keeps the three ROMs apart under System/ and composes them at
|
|
startup, ACE-DL ships them pre-joined under private/firmware/ with one file
|
|
per machine and language. The pairs are exact:
|
|
|
|
OS464_UK.rom Firmware v1 + BASIC 1.00
|
|
OS464_FR.rom Firmware f1 + French BASIC 1.0 (md5 824f5213...)
|
|
OS664_UK.rom Firmware v2 + BASIC 1.10
|
|
OS6128_UK.rom Firmware v3 + BASIC 1.20
|
|
OS6128_FR.rom Firmware f3 + BASIC 1.23
|
|
OS6128_S.rom Firmware s3 + BASIC 1.21
|
|
OS6128_DK.rom Firmware d3 + BASIC 1.20
|
|
XMEM_FW_3_15_UK.rom XMEM 3.15 firmware + BASIC 1.20
|
|
XMEM_FW_3_15_FR.rom XMEM 3.15 firmware + BASIC 1.23
|
|
|
|
Firmware versions run 1 to 4 for the 464, 664, 6128 and Plus, and the letter
|
|
is the country: v English, f French, s Spanish, d Danish. The BASIC revision
|
|
attached to a version 3 firmware follows the country, 1.23 for France, 1.21
|
|
for Spain, 1.20 elsewhere, which is what the pairs above show. The XMEM files
|
|
replace the firmware half with the X-MEM expansion firmware and keep the
|
|
stock BASIC.
|
|
|
|
The nine operating systems are the entries of the Machine configuration
|
|
selector. OS6128_UK.rom is the built-in default and is opened at every
|
|
startup even when the config OS= key names another file. Command line -fuk,
|
|
-ffr, -fsp and -fdk switch to the UK, French, Spanish and Danish 6128 files.
|
|
A machine needs at least 32 KB in the file: truncated to 16384 bytes the
|
|
emulator prints "Error initializing ROMs!" and dies, padded to 40000 bytes it
|
|
boots, so the check is a lower bound rather than an exact length. The AMSDOS
|
|
ROM is checked for presence only, an 8 KB stub boots. Every ROM path is built
|
|
from the application directory. The -configDir option added in 2026/10/16
|
|
only moves the directory holding config.cfg, while the firmware stays under
|
|
private/ beside the executable.
|
|
|
|
Plus machines boot from a cartridge and no cartridge filename is compiled
|
|
into the binary, the three Amstrad_?4.cpr files are the system cartridges the
|
|
author ships in the same directory, which is also the default browse root of
|
|
the cartridge requester. The loader walks the RIFF chunk list and reports
|
|
"Cartridge Load Error (Header)" on a bad header and "truncated file!" when a
|
|
cb00..cb07 bank is short, each bank being 16 KB for 128 KB total.
|
|
|
|
Plugins pull three more ROMs. Multiface II reads multiface2.rom, the Hacker
|
|
plugin reads hackit400uk.rom in its UK flavour and hacker481fr.rom in its
|
|
French one, and Play2CPC reads the YM2608 ADPCM rhythm ROM, warning with
|
|
"ym2608_adpcm_rom.bin not found!" and running without it. The Windows package
|
|
omits that ROM, the Linux and Raspberry Pi packages carry it.
|
|
|
|
Expansion ROMs are user business: config keys ROM0 to ROM255 hold whatever
|
|
the user picks through the requester rooted at media/rom/, and the release
|
|
seeds that directory with third-party ROMs (ParaDOS, Protext, Maxam, Utopia,
|
|
uniDOS, SymbOS, FutureOS, Orgams, Discology and others). Disc, tape,
|
|
snapshot, Dandanator and X-MASS images are user content the same way, and the
|
|
Nova plugin regenerates its 32 KB private/Nova/nova.nvram when the file is
|
|
absent. Outside emulation the binary loads its own payload: sixteen QOI
|
|
images (fatal with "Error loading QOI file please reinstall"), seventeen WAV
|
|
drive and monitor samples (each merely reported as not found), and the
|
|
private/messages catalog holding the French, English and Spanish
|
|
translations. private/sounds/hitachi_long_seek.wav and
|
|
private/images/acelogo.qoi ship with every package but appear in no path
|
|
constant.
