These patches were added in bde9a459cd
and enabled by default in 36ecfdd6b5.
They allowed the game to run in Dolphin but disabled dynamic shadows.
The game adds 4 to the start address of otherwise valid display lists
for no obvious reason. Now that Dolphin forces 32-byte alignment these
patches are no longer needed.
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.
Adjusts widescreen heuristic values to work properly for both the original game and the widescreen hack versions of Shadow the Hedgehog (all regions), Game ID GUP.
Credit to Billiard for determining values.
The defaults get loaded in by Dolphin at emulator start, and are used if the badge that would normally be displayed has not for whatever reason been downloaded yet. Badges attached to this PR are placeholders (MayIMilae is designing permanent badges) and reside in Sys\Load\RetroAchievements.
