PIZZA HEN v2.00 — Release Notes

PIZZA HEN v2.00 is the Complete I18N Final Gate source checkpoint.

The release is intentionally focused on completing the user-facing localization layer while preserving the runtime behavior of the R7.25.2.16.1 baseline.

What changed

• Toolbox translation data completed across 31 locales.
• KStuff selector, ShadowMount selector, native ShellUI locale table and service notifications remain covered across 31 locales.
• Arabic RTL behavior preserved.
• Previously hard-coded Toolbox descriptions/status labels moved into explicit localization mappings.
• PoorDS4 and Fan Target / ps5-fan-control Toolbox UI localized across all 31 locales.

What did not change

The v2.00 I18N gate was designed to avoid runtime regressions:

• all 91 ELF files remain byte-identical to the R7.25.2.16.1 baseline;
• all 127 named JavaScript functions in toolbox_launcher.html remain byte-identical;
• Package Installer scan/catalog/install functions remain frozen;
• Debug Services launcher remains byte-identical to the restored bridge;
• no launch/stop behavior, /hbldr, websrv, Package Installer, KStuff, ShadowMount, Fan Control, PoorDS4, Storage, Themes Avatar, CheatRunner or payload-manager runtime logic was changed for this gate.

Validation

The included audit records:

• 24/24 complete-I18N gate PASS;
• 58 Python static tests PASS;
• JavaScript syntax PASS for Toolbox, Debug Services and ShadowMount selector;
• KStuff selector JavaScript syntax PASS;
• release build-script Bash syntax PASS.

See V2_00_COMPLETE_I18N_AUDIT.txt for the exact checkpoint statement.

Validation wording

The audit deliberately describes the exact v2.00 checkpoint as STATIC-PASS until a WSL build/hardware result is recorded separately. This release note does not upgrade that status by assumption.

Source checkpoint

The clean v2.00 source snapshot was first published to GitHub main as:

9b800c4cffbbb7f6baa5e045cc77430b3bf5d11e

The documentation refresh that follows this snapshot changes presentation files only; it does not change the v2.00 runtime or bundled ELF assets.

Major integrated areas

The v2.00 tree includes the current PIZZA HEN Toolbox, KStuff/ShadowMount selectors, Homebrew Channel/websrv path, FTP, ps5debug-NG, ELF Loader, Package Installer/DPIv2, CheatRunner, Payload Repository / Plugin Manager, Fan Control, Remote Play helper, Web File Manager, Linux Loader, Game Download, SVT Play and optional service integrations documented in the changelog.

Compatibility remains component- and firmware-dependent.
