Outcomes:
- YES/NO COPY confirm modal closes correctly on CROSS press (returns to
COPY menu — matches Beetle behavior)
- No crash, no freeze
- Memory card 2 visible with a known-good save (sourced from Beetle's
dummy.1.mcr; backup of prior card2.mcd kept as .bak.before_beetle_copy)
- TAB held = turbo mode (skips VRAM->ARGB conversion + SDL_RenderPresent
every frame except every 30th); useful for navigation cycles
Remaining bug:
- The actual save data is NOT being copied. Source card content is not
written to destination. card1.mcd hash unchanged after a copy attempt.
- 0xBFC0989C still hits psx_unknown_dispatch 60x per copy. Bisect
confirmed seeding 0xBFC0989C alone causes a misaligned-dispatch crash
from caller 0xBFC09790 (function-pointer table at runtime addr
0xA000E1E8 indexed by predicate result, gives garbage target 0x3).
Seeding both 0xBFC09890 + 0xBFC0989C causes a softlock instead of crash.
Therefore 0xBFC0989C is intentionally NOT seeded; the copy data path
short-circuits because the predicate's stale-v0 result fails to enter
the actual write code.
Status of the function-discovery-miss bug class:
- VALIDATED for 0xBFC1A1BC (commit 6889f5c) — bandaid worked, modal
closes
- PARTIALLY VALIDATED for the BFC09xxx area — adding 0xBFC09890 alone is
safe but doesn't unblock the copy. 0xBFC0989C cannot be safely seeded
because it's likely a mid-function label, not a function entry. The
proper fix requires recompiling the full function containing 0xBFC09790
(the caller of these predicates) and ensuring the function-pointer
table at runtime address 0xA000E1E8 is populated with valid recompiled
function targets.
Turbo mode: hold TAB on the SDL window. Suppresses 29/30 frame presents,
keeps simulated CPU advancing at full speed.
