RAM-dump corpus — Phase 3 live PCSX-Redux captures (2026-06-14)

Full 2 MB PS1 RAM images pulled from the Windows-native PCSX-Redux web API (GET http://172.17.208.1:8081/api/v1/cpu/ram/raw) while Drew played a fresh SLUS-00726 run. Each is a labeled game-state snapshot — a reusable corpus for offline RE in later phases (overlay map, player-state, save-format) without re-playing the game.

  • Status (P33 B6, 2026-09-06): LOCAL-ONLY. The 28 .bin images are ROM-derived game memory (2 MB each, 57 MB; the retail EXE's code sits in every one) and leave git at the public flip; dumps/INDEX.md + dumps/CHECKSUMS.sha1 (one SHA1 per image, cd dumps && sha1sum --check CHECKSUMS.sha1 → 28/28) stay tracked and describe them. The private archive repo (Druthulu/BFM-decomp-archive, the pre-rewrite history) holds the one committed copy.
  • Not regenerable byte-for-byte. Each image is one moment of one play-through; a re-capture with tools/ram_probe.py snapshot <name> (PCSX-Redux web API → .run/ram/<name>.bin) is a NEW state snapshot of a different run — the same addresses hold the same kinds of facts, the bytes differ. Treat the SHA1s as the identity of THIS corpus, not as a target to reproduce. Back dumps/ up off-machine like disks/.
  • Resident blob always @0x800CEDF8 (MAIN.CD/FILE_010/1.1); location overlay slot @0x80128158.
  • Verified addresses derived from these live in docs/memory-map.md (§3.4, §4.3, Q#1/#3-#6/#9/#12).
