Currently we're showing OSD messages for unknown patches in known INI
files, but not for unknown patches in unknown INI files. I don't think
this distinction makes much sense to the user. If there's a patch the
user can't use, they probably want to be aware of that fact.
0c14b0c8a7 made Dolphin load a file from
the Sys folder the first time AchievementManager::GetInstance() is
called. Because Android calls AchievementManager::GetInstance() from
setBackgroundExecutionAllowedNative, this had two negative consequences
on Android:
1. The first time setBackgroundExecutionAllowedNative gets called is
often before directory initialization is done. Getting the path of
the Sys folder before directory initialization is done causes a crash.
2. setBackgroundExecutionAllowedNative is called from the GUI thread,
and we don't want file I/O on the GUI thread for performance reasons.
This change makes us load the data from the Sys folder the first time
the data is needed instead. This also saves us from having to load the
data at all when hardcore mode is inactive.
We mustn't use m_system when it is nullptr. This was causing Dolphin to
crash on Android whenever an activity was recreated or resumed while
emulation is running, which is super common.
This unit test compares ApprovedInis.json with the contents of the GameSettings folder to verify that every patch marked allowed for use with RetroAchievements has a hash in ApprovedInis.json. If not, that hash is reported in the test logs so that the hash may be updated more easily.
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.
By request from delroth, I changed the name of our Transifex
organization so it's named after the Dolphin project rather than after
him. This broke old links and the .tx/config file.
