emulator: carried the file stem on 67 profiles, so site links read like ids. Each now takes the project's own name (libretro .info corename, README title, window title or site title). tests/test_profile_names.py allows the stem only on a commented list: lowercase project names, test cores, aliases and the template.

|
|
CorsixTH is a Lua + C++ reimplementation of Bullfrog's Theme Hospital
|
|
engine. It reads graphics, sprites, levels and sounds from an
|
|
untouched Theme Hospital install (full retail/GOG or the shareware
|
|
demo).
|
|
|
|
App:checkInstallFolder() in CorsixTH/Lua/app.lua:1450 drives the
|
|
install discovery:
|
|
1. config.theme_hospital_install (user override) is tried first
|
|
(:1453). If unset or wrong, the loader scans a list of common
|
|
paths (:1473-1491) looking for a folder that passes
|
|
App:isThemeHospitalPath, which demands three subdirectories
|
|
named data, levels and qdata (:1435-1447).
|
|
2. Once a candidate is accepted, three sentinel files MUST exist
|
|
(:1523-1525):
|
|
DATA/VBlk-0.tab
|
|
LEVELS/Level.L1
|
|
QDATA/SPointer.dat
|
|
Any missing file aborts init with "Invalid Theme Hospital
|
|
folder specified in config file..." (:1528).
|
|
3. DataM/Demo.dat (:1537) marks the shareware demo install. Its
|
|
presence switches a different corruption-size check on
|
|
ANIMS/WINLEVEL.SMK (243188), LEVELS/LEVEL.L1 (163948) and
|
|
DATA/BUTTON01.DAT (252811) at :1561-1563. Full installs instead
|
|
get soft size checks on ANIMS/AREA01V.SMK, WINGAME.SMK,
|
|
WINLEVEL.SMK, LOSE1.SMK and INTRO/INTRO.SM4 (:1565-1569).
|
|
4. QData/Font00V.dat is read unconditionally (:1578) and its CRC32
|
|
picks the charset (mik vs cp437).
|
|
|
|
The install root is read as a tree. FileSystem:setRoot() lists the
|
|
root, each subdirectory is listed the first time a path crosses it,
|
|
and every name is matched after normalise() upper-cases it
|
|
(CorsixTH/Lua/filesystem.lua:59-76, 93-117, 243-272). Graphics,
|
|
sprites, levels, sounds and movies are opened from that tree on
|
|
demand, so the install is declared as one directory. The files the
|
|
loader names at startup keep their own entries, written with the
|
|
upper-case names the DOS release ships and the lookup normalises to.
|
|
|
|
The sound/music path uses the game's XMI tracks when a SoundFont is
|
|
available (App:findSoundFont at :1591 probes GeneralUser-GS.sf2,
|
|
FluidR3_GM.sf2, FluidR3.sf3 and three Linux system paths), and the
|
|
SoundFont is a user preference, not game data.
