Unblocks the rest of the migration. soh.o2r is produced by ZAPD via OTRExporter/extract_assets.py, both of which this migration deletes; its replacement is a small in-tree packer that has to reproduce ZAPD's texture quantisation exactly. Rather than block Phases 2/3/5 on that packer, check the archive in and make GenerateSohOtr a copy. The archive doubles as Phase 4's acceptance oracle -- the packer is correct when its output matches this entry-for-entry -- which is strictly more useful than Gate E's planned manifest of hashes of it. Generation turns out to be content-deterministic but NOT byte- deterministic: two runs give identical payloads for all 1,042 entries but different file hashes, because zip stores per-entry timestamps. So the Phase 4 comparison must be entry-wise; whole-file would fail even on a correct archive. Recorded in prebuilt/README.md. Adds a configure-time guard on the baked-in portVersion. OTRGlobals.cpp :283 requires exact major.minor.patch equality and RunExtract exit(1)s with "soh.o2r is outdated", which is an opaque symptom for a stale checked-in file; verified the guard fires by building against 9.2.4. ExtractAssets, CI and copy-existing-otrs.cmake are deliberately untouched -- ExtractAssets still generates a correct archive while ZAPD exists, and the CI job keeps working since it just builds this target.

Prebuilt soh.o2r — temporary
This directory exists to unblock the Torch migration and is meant to be deleted.
soh.o2r is the port's own asset archive: fonts, textures, presets, translations, shaders —
everything under soh/assets/custom/, plus a portVersion stamp. It is built by
GenerateSohOtr, which today drives ZAPD through OTRExporter/extract_assets.py. The migration
deletes ZAPDTR and OTRExporter, so that producer goes away and its replacement — a small in-tree
packer (Phase 4 of torch-migration/PLAN.md) — has to reproduce it byte-for-byte, including
ZAPD's specific texture quantisation.
Rather than block every other phase on that packer, the archive is checked in here and
GenerateSohOtr just copies it into place. Phases 2, 3 and 5 become testable without the
packer existing.
This file also serves as Phase 4's acceptance oracle: the packer is correct when its output matches this archive entry-for-entry. That replaces Gate E's planned sha256 manifest — the artifact is strictly more useful than a list of hashes of it.

The input hash covers every file under soh/assets/custom/ except shaders/, which is not
checked in — it is copied out of libultraship/src/fast/shaders/ at generation time. Recompute it
with:
find soh/assets/custom -type f -not -path '*/shaders/*' -print0 | sort -z \
| xargs -0 sha256sum | sha256sum
(-print0/sort -z are required: several preset filenames contain spaces.)
Generation is content-deterministic, not byte-deterministic
Two consecutive runs produce archives with identical payloads for all 1,042 entries but different whole-file hashes — the zip stores a modification timestamp per entry. So:
- The sha256 above identifies this file, not "any correct archive".
- Phase 4's acceptance test must compare entry-by-entry, never whole-file. A byte-identical archive is not achievable and not the goal.
What this pins
The archive freezes three inputs. If any changes while this workaround is in place, the checked-in copy is stale and nothing will tell you at runtime except missing or wrong assets:
soh/assets/custom/— edit an asset and your change is silently ignored. Compare the input hash above.- libultraship's shaders —
libultraship/src/fast/shaders/is copied in at generation time, so a LUS submodule bump can drift the three shaders inside this archive. - The project version.
portVersionhere is9.2.3.OTRGlobals.cpp:283requires exactmajor.minor.patchequality against the build's version, andRunExtractcallsexit(1)with "soh.o2r is outdated" if it fails. A configure-time check in the rootCMakeLists.txtcatches this and tells you to regenerate, because the runtime symptom is not obvious.
Regenerating
From a tree where ZAPDTR/OTRExporter still build (i.e. develop):
cmake --build build --target GenerateSohOtr
cp soh.o2r prebuilt/soh.o2r
Then update the provenance table above.
Removing this
When Phase 4's packer lands and its output matches this archive entry-for-entry, delete this
directory, drop the !prebuilt/soh.o2r negation from .gitignore, and restore GenerateSohOtr
to a real build step (including the libultraship shader copy, which the copy-only version skips).
Delete it before the migration PR merges if at all possible. It is a 4.4 MB binary, and a blob
that reaches develop is in the history permanently; removed in the final tree and squash-merged,
it never lands there at all.
