The renderer, controller and sound plugins\n(*.znc, s11player.dll) ship beside it.\nref: ZiNc.exe 0x493f60\n\nGames are picked by number on the command line, not by set name. Each of the\n79 driver records holds the description, parent, set name, a pointer to its\nROM list and the name of the BIOS set, then the list gives name, region,\nload offset and CRC32 of every ROM, the BIOS ROM first. RetroBat maps the\nset name to that number in zincGameNumber.\nref: ZiNc.exe 0x496404 (glpracr record),\n     emulatorlauncher emulatorLauncher/Generators/Zinc.Generator.cs:136-209\n\nROMs are read from the directory given by -roms-directory (default roms),\nwhich RetroBat writes into zinc.cfg as the folder of the launched game. A ROM\nis looked up in <set>.zip, then in the parent's zip, then in the BIOS set's\nzip, each also as a plain directory. A missing ROM stops the load with\n\"ERROR: missing rom file\", and every ROM is checked against the CRC32 of its\nrecord (\"ERROR: BAD CRC ... expected\").\nref: ZiNc.exe 0x494134, 0x49fdfc, 0x4a018c, 0x49fe24, 0x49fe48,\n     emulatorlauncher emulatorLauncher/Generators/Zinc.Generator.cs:109-114\n\nThe Namco System 11 records name no BIOS set: the first ROM of each list is\nthe game's own program ROM. sncwgltd (Video System) names none either and\nlists coh-1002v.353 inside its own set. The seven BIOS sets below are the\nonly files read outside a game's own set.\n",
