PCSX2 crashes when launching ELF from folder with foreign characters #1307

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

Upon launching any ELF from within a folder with non-Latin characters like 戦, 
か, ～, etc. PCSX2 will immediately crash. ISOs have no such problems. As far 
as I know this is a basic issue with ever revision of PCSX2.

ELF loading works by redirecting the first ELF the BIOS would load to a host: 
path, which is then handled by high level emulation of the IOP ioman module.  
ioman paths are not unicode, so either we could force UTF-8 on host: paths or 
ignore this issue because it's really not a big deal.

Yes, it isn't a big deal no matter where you come from.  Developers have always 
used ascii names for their files.
