Technical notes

Cannonball is an enhanced OutRun engine that runs the original Sega OutRun arcade ROM set (Rev B). It is not a traditional emulator but a source port that loads the original ROM data for graphics, sound, and gameplay logic.

The core looks for ROM files in one of two locations (src/main/libretro/main.cpp:945-967): 1. The directory containing a loaded .game content file 2. {system_dir}/cannonball/

ROM loading is in src/main/roms.cpp. Each file is verified by CRC32 at load time (src/main/romloader.cpp:70-76). Files are loaded as raw ROM chips, not inside ZIP archives.

The Rev B ROM set is always required. Japanese ROM variants are loaded on demand when the "Japanese Tracks" core option is enabled.

Two optional widescreen tilemap patches are loaded from a res/ subdirectory (src/main/engine/omusic.cpp:42-51). These are Cannonball-specific data files, not original arcade ROMs.

The fixed PCM sample variant (opr-10188.71f) replaces opr-10188.71 when the "Fix Broken Samples" core option is enabled.
