# Mach Rider (JU)
|
|
|
|
## Status
|
|
|
|
**Pass 1.** The project builds and verifies byte-identical to the
|
|
original ROM. `prg.s` is a traced disassembly classifying bytes as
|
|
reachable code or data, with every instruction carrying a trailing
|
|
audit comment. Unreached bytes remain as explicit `.byte` blocks; no
|
|
ROM byte is deleted or reformatted.
|
|
|
|
`make` assembles `header.s`, `prg.s`, `chr.s`, links them with `ld65` and compares the
|
|
result against `rom.nes`:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
Byte-identical ROM verified.
|
|
```

### Header notes
|
|
|
|
- header byte 6 bit 3 (four-screen VRAM) is set
|
|
|
|
## Open work
|
|
|
|
- **Pass 1** - run `nesdis.py` over `prg.bin` to produce the code/data
|
|
split. The tracer reads the vectors from the last six bytes of the PRG
|
|
image, so the split seeds correctly.
|
|
- **Pass 1** must emit the canonical audit comment
|
|
`; CPU:$C123 PRG:0123 AD 21 03` at column 35 for every instruction.
|
|
- **Pass 2** - replace the address-derived `Label_XXXX` names and the raw
|
|
`$XXXX` call operands.
|
|
- **Pass 3** - semantic zero-page aliases (applied only at the sites where
|
|
their role is proven) and named data tables.
|
|
- **Promotion** to `NROM/<name>/` once Pass 3 is done, as `git mv`.
