Technical notes

Libretro port of Craft, a simple Minecraft clone by Michael Fogleman. All textures, fonts, and shaders are embedded in the binary (header arrays). Upstream loads textures from external PNG files, while the libretro port compiles them in. Uses system directory only for craft.db/auth.db (core-generated save data). Source has zero fopen calls. .info declares no firmware.

No BIOS or firmware files required.

Why no files

The system directory is asked for, and what goes in it is written by the core: g->db_path and g->db_auth_path, the world database and its auth table. Nothing is read from it that the user has to supply (src/main.c:2682-2697).

Next steps

• Get your files, for the setup you play on
• Every system, and the files each one needs
• When a game does not start
