EmuELEC, AmberELEC and KNULLI launch standalone emulators by the name their launch code dispatches on (HATARISA, PPSSPPSDL, FBNEOSA) and ship 32-bit or patched builds of libretro cores under their own .so names (flycast_32b, mupen64plus_next_alt, genesis_plus_gx_cart_special, mame0139, flycast-xtreme). Each name joins the profile of the project its package builds. fceumm_mod reads gg.rom, not gamegenie.nes, and never opens it, so it gets its own profile.

Reimplementation of the Duke Nukem II engine (Apogee, 1993). It plays the
|
|
data files of the DOS release, shareware or registered.
|
|
|
|
Game path. The path comes from the positional command line argument
|
|
(src/main.cpp:222), else the working directory when it holds NUKEM2.CMP,
|
|
else a folder browser (src/game_main.cpp:101-125). A folder is accepted only
|
|
when NUKEM2.CMP exists in it (src/game_main.cpp:72-78, 136-142) and the
|
|
choice is kept in the user profile (src/game_main.cpp:152-153, 235-240).
|
|
File names are opened as written, in upper case.
|
|
|
|
NUKEM2.CMP is an archive with a dictionary of 12-character names, offsets
|
|
and sizes. Every game asset is read from it (src/assets/resource_loader.cpp:148,
|
|
515-537). The only check is that each entry lies inside the file
|
|
(src/assets/cmp_file_package.cpp:43-66). No size, CRC or hash is compared.
|
|
|
|
Shareware or registered. The registered set is assumed when the archive
|
|
holds LCR.MNI and O1.MNI (src/frontend/game.cpp:235-245). With the
|
|
shareware set, episodes 2 to 4 answer with the ordering message
|
|
(src/frontend/menu_mode.cpp:243-247) and saves of those episodes are
|
|
refused (src/frontend/menu_mode.cpp:303-305). The shareware episode plays
|
|
in full.
|
|
|
|
Intro movies. NUKEM2.F1 to NUKEM2.F4 are loaded loose from the game path
|
|
(src/assets/resource_loader.cpp:415-429) when the intro is built
|
|
(src/ui/intro_movie.cpp:72, 80, 94, 108), and NUKEM2.F5 is the Apogee logo
|
|
(src/ui/apogee_logo.cpp:63-67). A missing file throws and the intro or the
|
|
logo is skipped (src/frontend/intro_demo_loop_mode.cpp:38-55, 64-77).
|
|
|
|
On first launch the original game's saves, high scores and settings
|
|
(NUKEM2.-NM, NUKEM2.-S1 to -S8, NUKEM2.-V1 to -V4, NUKEM2.-GT) are imported
|
|
when present (src/assets/user_profile_import.cpp:144-203). They are user
|
|
data, not distributed files.
|
|
|
|
The shareware release that the project points to is
|
|
archive.org msdos_DUKE2_shareware, DUKE2.zip (README.md:82,
|
|
cmake/rigel_pack.cmake:14-17). It holds NUKEM2.CMP and all five movies.
|
|
NUKEM2.EXE in that release is never opened.
|

EmuELEC 4.8 builds commit f05996f9b3ad3b3ea5bb818e49e7977636746343, where
|
|
every file cited above is identical, and passes /storage/roms/ports/rigelengine
|
|
as the game path.
