Prototype of a system to whitelist known game patches that are allowed to be used while RetroAchievements Hardcore mode is active. ApprovedInis.txt contains known hashes for the ini files as they appear in the repo, and can be compared to the local versions of these files to ensure they have not been edited locally by the player. ApprovedInis.txt is hashed and verified similarly first, with its hash residing as a const string within AchievementManager.h, ensuring ApprovedInis and the hashes within cannot be modified without editing Dolphin's source code and recompiling completely.
The challenge popups have proven to be excessive and are no longer useful thanks to the achievements hotkey. Instead, those events will ask for an immediate RP-level update to the achievements dialog, which will among other things re-sort the dialog to show challenges on top faster.
There are two pieces of functionality to be added here. One, we want to disallow pausing too frequently, as it may be used as an artificial slowdown. This is handled within the client, which can tell us if a pause is allowed. Two, we want to call rc_client_idle on a periodic basis so the connection with the server can be maintained even while the emulator is paused.
This reverts commit 72cf2bdb87.
SYSCONF settings are getting cleared when they shouldn't be. Let's
revert the change until I get proper time to figure out why it's broken.
rc_client calls the provided memory peeker asynchronously in the callback for starting a session, to validate/invalidate the memory used for achievements. Dolphin cannot access memory from any thread but host or CPU so this access has a small chance of being invalid. This commit adds a MemoryVerifier that the AchievementManager will use to perform this, before changing the peek method back to the original MemoryPeeker for normal operation.
Some pieces of code are calling IsRunning because there's some
particular action that only makes sense when emulation is running, for
instance showing the state of the emulated CPU. IsRunning is appropriate
to use for this. Then there are pieces of code that are calling
IsRunning because there's some particular thing they must avoid doing
e.g. when the CPU thread is running or IOS is running. IsRunning isn't
quite appropriate for this. Such code should also be checking for the
states Starting and Stopping. Keep in mind that:
* When the state is Starting, the state can asynchronously change to
Running at any time.
* When we try to stop the core, the state gets set to Stopping before we
take any action to actually stop things.
This commit adds a new method Core::IsUninitialized, and changes all
callers of IsRunning and GetState that look to me like they should be
changed.
Core::GetState reads from four different pieces of state: s_is_stopping,
s_hardware_initialized, s_is_booting, and CPUManager::IsStepping.
I'm keeping that last one as is for now because there's code in Dolphin
that sets it directly, but we can unify the other three to make things
easier to reason about.
This commit also gets rid of s_is_started. This was previously used in
Core::IsRunningAndStarted to ensure true wouldn't be returned until the
CPU thread was started, but it wasn't used in Core::GetState, so
Core::GetState would happily return State::Running after we had
initialized the hardware but before we had initialized the CPU thread.
As far as I know, there are no callers that have any real need to know
whether the boot process is currently initializing the hardware or the
CPU thread. Perhaps once upon a time there was a desire to make the
apploader debuggable, but a long time has passed without anyone stepping
up to implement it, and the way CBoot::RunApploader is implemented makes
it rather difficult. So this commit makes all the functions in Core.cpp
consider the core to still be starting until the CPU thread is started.
Since rcheevos headers are included in AchievementManager.h, and everyone that depends on Core can include that, we must also pass on the include directory and defines to those dependencies
If an icon is displayed on screen before it downloads, it was displaying a default icon but it would fail to load the actual icon even after it was downloaded. This fixes that.
Add a two second timer to Achievement Progress Indicators to wait until two seconds after the previous message (when it should have decayed out automatically) before posting any new ones.
AchievementManager maintains a unique pointer to a copy of the current volume so it can asynchronously hash that volume. It is not needed otherwise, so I can release that pointer when hashing is complete. This change fixes a bug whereby changing discs in a game and then changing to a different game would result in the loaded volume pointer still being loaded with and hashing to the previous game.
This lets us reduce the number of USE_RETRO_ACHIEVEMENTS ifdefs in the
code base, reducing visual clutter. In particular, needing an ifdef for
each call to IsHardcodeModeActive was annoying to me. This also reduces
the risk that someone writes code that accidentally fails to compile
with USE_RETRO_ACHIEVEMENTS disabled.
We could cut down on ifdefs even further by making HardcodeWarningWidget
always exist, but that would result in non-trivial code ending up in the
binary even with USE_RETRO_ACHIEVEMENTS disabled, so I'm leaving it out
of this PR. It's not a lot of code though, so I might end up revisiting
it at some point.
Enable emulator hotkeys and controller input (when that option is
enabled) when a TAS Input window has focus, as if it was the render
window instead. This allows TASers to use frame advance and the like
without having to switch the focused window or disabling Hotkeys Require
Window Focus which also picks up keypresses while other apps are active.
Cursor updates are disabled when the TAS Input window has focus, as
otherwise the Wii IR widget (and anything else controlled by the mouse)
becomes unusable. The cursor continues to work normally when the render
window has focus.
