Note from submitter

Please add Xena: Warrior Princess from the existing public v0.1.2 release. Exact Windows installation, generation, build, gameplay, normal exit and relaunch passed with RetComM v0.6.33 on September 4. RetComM v0.6.34 also passes corrected-catalog parsing, owned-disc and SCPH-1001 matching, exact package download/extraction, and launch planning. No new gameplay claim. Netplay must remain disabled. Linux/macOS full installation and gameplay are not qualified; current Mac archives need macOS 15 for their generators and external Homebrew SDL3. A Mac package refresh remains pending.

Required before approval: the visible form has no BIOS editor or editable build-source field. Add this top-level field and replace build.source.ref with the exact public v0.1.2 commit acb27a20e1c940a243447a1e4b27bccaafdd82eb. All other inferred build recipe fields are correct.

"bios_identity": {"required":true,"filenames":["SCPH1001.BIN","scph1001.bin","ps-22a.bin"],"sizes":[524288],"crc32":["37157331"],"sha1":["10155d8d6e6e832d6ea66db9bc098321fb5e8ebf"],"sha256":["71af94d1e47a68c11e8fdb9f8368040601514a42a5a399cda48c7d3bff1e99d3"]}

Windows release ZIP SHA-256: 309479d31eed99a0146e9131f0c1a07328e356e48ca025a9dee63e07053f035e. The owned CUE and BIN were selected and hashed in this form; game and BIOS files are not uploaded.

Maintainer checklist

• Digests match the game's ownership gate / No-Intro / Redump
• Release asset globs match real assets
• Launch binary names verified
• Add label approved to merge into the catalog and publish catalog.zip (use approved-update only to overwrite an existing id)

[Alexbeav]

The title is present in published catalog v2026.09.06.084236.manual.28. The two metadata corrections requested in the original submission note were not applied: the entry has no explicit bios_identity, and build.source.ref is still main.

Please set build.source.ref to acb27a20e1c940a243447a1e4b27bccaafdd82eb (the exact tested public release commit) and add this top-level object:

{
  "bios_identity": {
    "crc32": [
      "37157331"
    ],
    "filenames": [
      "SCPH1001.BIN",
      "scph1001.bin",
      "ps-22a.bin"
    ],
    "required": true,
    "sha1": [
      "10155d8d6e6e832d6ea66db9bc098321fb5e8ebf"
    ],
    "sha256": [
      "71af94d1e47a68c11e8fdb9f8368040601514a42a5a399cda48c7d3bff1e99d3"
    ],
    "sizes": [
      524288
    ]
  }
}

The checked packet uses these values. Disc hashes, launch names and release patterns in the published entry match it. Please also remove the obsolete “Before approval” sentence from notes after the correction. The recorded Windows test scope and Linux/macOS limits remain unchanged.

This is a correction to the existing approved entry, not a second title submission. The public game release ZIPs do not need to be replaced for these metadata changes.
