The sonnetpatch should fix references to powerpc.library #22

Closed rkujawa closed 7 years ago

rkujawa commented 8 years ago

If the user tries to run a binary referencing powerpc.library, he'll just get the error message saying it was not found. The sonnetpatch utility should be able to change these references to use sonnet.library instead.

Also, note that strings powerpc.library and sonnet.library are different length. This might require further patching of hunk headers, or padding the hunk where library is referenced.

I would recommend only patching powerpc.library,$00 to sonnet.library,$00,$00 for now in combination with the "fast" option. Other strings, like a message for when the library cannot be opened are not critical. E.g. powerpc.library ending with $20, $0A or "!"

This still needed with the move to system which patches during loading?

DvdBoon commented 7 years ago

SonnetPatch no longer needed with the new powerpc.library LoadSeg() patch.
