Fixes launcher verification succeeding but Play rejecting equivalent original ROM headers. This build uses the shared cartridge correction and regenerated native code. Legacy iNES, NES 2.0 and multi-region containers are accepted for the matching game data and resolved board; board/RAM/console/program-data checks and qualified regional timing remain enforced. No player setting is required.
Validation: 900-frame native/interpreter/header comparisons and real launcher Play pass. Extracted production ZIPs pass dependency and header-boot checks. Existing UI pin, renderer, enhancements and normal player audio defaults are retained. Automated tests use muted output. These checks cover header/startup regression, not a new complete mechanics audit. Native Linux x86_64 recheck passed under Ubuntu/WSL with system SDL2 selected explicitly: released-source game builds, 900-frame legacy/NES 2.0/multi-region native/interpreter comparisons with matching Windows state hashes and pixels, and real SDL/recomp-ui launcher Play under private Xvfb/software OpenGL. Linux GCC/Clang header contracts and source CLI generation/static-library checks also pass. The published Windows archives are unchanged. Default SDL2 discovery is fixed on current engine/game source branches (mstan/nesrecomp#77). For immutable release-tag source, explicitly set SDL2_DIR to the native system SDL2 CMake package, or build the latest source branch for automatic detection.
Extract the entire Windows ZIP and select your own matching original ROM. USA retail inputs are preferred where available. No ROM, player settings, saves, logs or dumps are included. CD Speed and Fast Loading packages are absent. SHA256SUMS.txt covers every archive.
