[Reques] Add softpatching support #175

Closed askotx closed 2 years ago

askotx commented 2 years ago

Like other cores, will this be feasible?

hizzlekizzle commented 2 years ago

This core is currently set to "needs_fullpath = true", which means it needs direct access to the file on disk instead of loading it into RAM, where it could be softpatched. This is often a fairly big deal to change, as it means changing how the core emulator accesses all ROM data.

Fair enough, thanks for explain it. I'll close this issue then.
