Real UMD delay support (Aces of War) #374

Open Sukotto-1999 opened 5 months ago

New Feature

Feature:

Support for emulation of the real UMD delay. There is an anti-piracy feature confirmed by me and an other GitHub user (here: https://github.com/hrydgard/ppsspp/issues/11062, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eTgCGTlADnc) in Aces of War where the game stops loading on the chapter selection menu and then hangs there.

The support for it should be added in a newer version and should be enabled by default for Aces of War (both Japanese and European versions)

And also, can a plugin that simulates real UMD delay for all ISO drivers for PRO/LME be developed?

We have discussed this in the past, but no moment has happened with it was more of a finding I found. Before for another issue that was brought up in the past. It is on a todo list to get done though for those few games that use it.

As for the plugin. I am sure if we implement it someone can make a plugin with it for other CFW's.

You know what? Instead of waiting for the support to be added, i think i might find a way to get the protection in Aces of War removed at least if i have time.

EDIT: You know what? i give up. Someone should make a patch to get it working
